Bug in Paragraph Shading in Multicolumn text
When you apply a large Paragraph Shading to the left or right on multicolumn text, the Shading overlaps the text. (Also obscuring text!)

Hi,
Thanks for reporting this issue. We have seen this issue being reported by some users ever since Paragraph Shading as a feature was introduced in InDesign.
I have marked this issue as “Under Review” for consideration by the InDesign team.

I've heard reports from several coworkers of mine that this also occurs for table borders in a similar fashion. I haven't tested it, but thought I'd add it to this issue.

When I have paragraph shading on a sequence of paragraphs, the top overset of the shading overrides and covers the underlining I have on the previous paragraph, particularly the last line. This is not apparent till I add space between the paragraphs or reduce or remove the offsets, but I want those offsets so that no gaps appear in my shading. But shouldn't underlining on text show up over shading no matter what? It shouldn't matter how big my top/bottom shading offsets are, they shouldn't cover any text or any property of the text.
