ANY UPDATES? I just completed a 324 page book with 100+ colour photos. Everything was perfect. Amazon's suggestions for margins template were far too narrow (and I even added space above and beyond just in case). I received my printed copy and I have to adjust the margins. Upon doing so, all the images inside text frames (that have captions created by Indesign's caption function) are now all totally askew. Images had either 1, 2, or 3 lines of captions. I had to do a lot of math for image heights to calculate image sizing for each caption line amount option to ensure even spacing. Changing the margins has removed some captions, resized the image and/or the frame, and misaligned all. This is totally unacceptable! You are supposed to be the premiere publishing software, industry standard. I cannot believe how ridiculous this is. What should have taken 5 minutes, I've been pulling my hair out for 4 hours now. I have to redesign the ENTIRE BOOK! What the actual hell.

Yes, please bring back at least the option for the legacy layout adjustment. I also used to use this all the time while designing books, as I could tweak margins as I worked until I got it just right. I could adjust the margins on a single master page and its automatic text box would automatically resize to fit those margins without messing everything else up. As it is, I have to carefully write down all x and y coordinates of all master page items and then manually adjust them. Or I have to adjust the margins on a single master and then go in and manually adjust the text box. What is the purpose of this? The way it works now makes for a laborious process with no benefit that I can see. It looks more like someone had fun programming this behavior, but never asked what it was for.

I have the same problem in Indesign 2020. Adjusting layout / changing margins adjusts the image scaling or image frame size of the anchored or inline image.
