Pages/spread overlapping after changing page size

InDesign 2018 CC 13.0.1

Pages and spreads are doing weird things when I resize my document. It creates some odd margin after resize of pages. I start out with 2 pages, document shuffling allowed, facing pages turned off.

Pagespread01112617 - shows the page spread I was working with; each page is 10”x12.25”.
Pagespread02112617 - after I changed the size to 10.68”x11.239” for another ad spread, a weird margin showed up. The content boxes show how there is an odd overlap; each box is 10.68" wide.
Pagespread03_112617 - If I move page 2 down in the Pages panel, and realign it with page 1, the margin disappears.

    Wondering about the status of this? This is happening to me and I see it was under investigation in 2018.

    same problem. facing pages does work after the fact, but still, isn't great

    Same problem resizing a document in spreads. The Page view quick fix does work.

    Here is another fix - after the resize change the document to Facing Pages and and back in the Document Setup dialogue and all your spreads should magically appear back to normal.

    It's a simple fix. You need to move your pages down (I'd start with the last page and start as if it's a new layout spread), then pull each panel into that new spread and it fixes the problem. It's just a glitch. Had it happened sporadically. Basically, just re-shuffle the spreads and it will snap back.

    I'm experincing the same problem when creating book cover layouts and I want to change the spine size (i.e. page 2 i a 3 page spread), can this be fixed or di I have to redo the cover every time I need to change the spine size?

    I'm able to recreate it using a new doc. But I notice that this occurs when I uncheck Facing Pages at the time I create a new doc. If I create a document with Facing Pages checked on but then go back to uncheck it after the fact, this odd behaviour doesn't occur. I have a screen capture video of this bug if you want to see it in action. It is reproducible on my end.
