Different views when switching between preview and normal mode
Strange behavior. I recently switched between preview and normal mode and InDesign showed me an older version of the document.
Most recent MacOS and InDesign Version.

It happens too often, almost every time I'm working on a textbook layout. As a clue, I can tell I'm working a lot with imported Word documents as, I suppose, most of us. Please solve this really annoying bug unworthy of a professionnal design and layout editor. Contact me if you want some details.

Again, this is a really dangerous bug because it could let you think the layout is allright whereas it is not. I'm loosing confidence in working with InDesign because of the proliferation of these kind of dangerous bugs lately. Look at the video attached to make yourself an idea of what I'm talking to. The preview is absolutely WRONG !
Please solve this sooner than later... -

It happens to me too from time to time. This is a dangerous bug as it could make the user believe that his document is layed out in a wrong way. I lost time several times trying to edit pages that were not as they were displayed. From a professional program, that is really not serious because this is a huge bug.

I can confirm that this happend to me too - but not very often.
InDesign in general has quite a few "updating" problems - especially when having multiple textframes inside each other that change dimensions due to text changes..What usually works for me is pressing "**** + F5" to refresh the view or edit a line / place a linebreak and remove it in the broken view. - But it's still a bug.. yep
