Document not opening properly - page is a small icon and whole screen is coloured
My document was fine, but Indesign was glitchy, so I updated.
Now I get this when I open the doc.
Yesterday it did open properly after a wait. But today its the same.
I've got a deadline follks - this isn't funny.
Thanks.

I’ve had similar issues with InDesign acting up right before a deadline, and it’s incredibly stressful when your work just won’t open properly. To take a quick mental break from troubleshooting, I tried https://spinmachos.com for a few rounds just to reset my mood. A small win surprisingly lifted my spirits, and when I returned to the document, I approached the glitches more calmly and found a workaround faster than expected. Sometimes a short distraction is all it takes to regain focus under pressure.

I just posted the same issue. Will try DERJUNG's suggestion of turning off GPU acceleration.

I have the same issue. Though the content of the file window is back to normal once I resize the window. My screenshot looks very much like yours. Since I figured out a workaround, I'm not really concerned anymore, but still...

for me it helps to turn off GPU acceleration in preferences... In my opinion, this is the cause of most of the errors in this app. Most Adobe app are more like Beta Apps nowadays I do make a point of writing my frustrations about where I can. :-)
Actually, updates should be fun and you can look forward to new things. But since two years it is less and less fun to wait for updates.
