[ID-4213055] Object Style Options: XY Offset < 1440
MacOS High Sierra
InDesignCC 2018 13.1
When setting up Object Style Options > Size and position options > Position > Adjust X OR Y,
it’s impossible to manually enter any value bigger than 1440 px (pt), regardless of page size.

Why is there a still a 1440px limit? This should be a relatively quick fix for the amount of updates that have been out since 2019.
It makes absolutely no sense to cap the auto-size of an image container to 1440 when documents and images can be any size.
There's a few bugs in InDesign like this that really need fixing with the updates that go on. Please help us out.

This is a big problem when setting up pages to export for slide shows or video at 1920 x 1080 (standard 16:9). I have 101 pages with captions that need to line up 54px from the right margin. Please fix this !

Glad I found this - thought it was an issue with my document and wasted the last 30 minutes trying to solve! Why such arbitrary limitations Adobe?
