macOS menu bar covers InDesign title bar (multi-screen setup)
When running multiple screens connected to my MacBook Pro (14-inch, M1 Pro), InDesign's title bar will frequently get stuck under the macOS menu bar on the built-in screen, making it impossible to move the window either to another screen or within the built-in screen. I have to arrange the screens so the built-in screen is slightly above the others (even though it's below them physically) to get the title bar visible so I can move it.
Interestingly, this phenomenon only occurs on the built-in screen. It's likely that InDesign doesn't know how to handle the macOS menu bar being taller (about 72 pixels instead of, what, 48?) and wrapping around the camera notch, so it doesn't respect the menu bar as a border.

I've had this issue for years an finally found 2 things that help solve the issue.
The quickest way is to disconnect your external monitor for a quick second and reconnect.
The second method I've found is to go into your settings > Control Center > scroll to the very bottom and it says "Automatically hide and show the menu bar" and change it to "Desktop" or "Always". move your window down and then put it back to "In Full Screen Only" or whatever setting you had originally.
Hope one of those 2 fixes helps.
