InDesign crashes while Editing Cross-Reference
- InDesign 13.1
- Select text, got to Type > Hyperlinks & Cross-References > Insert Cross-Reference
- Should be able to open/edit Cross-References
- Entire program freezes and has to be force quit.

As per the customer, the issue was specific to a corrupt element. Deleting or modifying the corrupt element resolved the issue.

After further editing the document, it eventually stopped crashing. It seems there was simply a corrupted element in the document. Once this was changed or removed (not sure exactly what it was), the document functions as expected.

We have released InDesign CC2019.0.1 with lot of stability fixes. If you are not on 14.0.1.209 then I would recommend you to upgrade to latest version as it is more robust.
