Persistent Cursor and Functionality Issues in Adobe InDesign After macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 Update
Description of the Issue:
I’m experiencing multiple issues with Adobe InDesign across different versions (including the latest and earlier releases) after updating to macOS Sequoia 15.1.1. These problems occur consistently across various files and significantly disrupt workflow.
Issues encountered:
Unable to apply colors from the swatch palette – clicking on a swatch does not work for either text or objects.
Styles (both text and object) cannot be applied by clicking; I must use right-click and "Apply Style" instead.
Frames on the page shift a few millimeters upon clicking, seemingly on their own.
Stroke color for objects cannot be selected or modified.
The selection tool lags and causes objects to move slightly to the left when selected.
Fonts cannot be changed from the toolbar – clicking the dropdown does nothing.
These issues are highly disruptive and make it impossible to work efficiently. No other changes have been made to my system aside from the macOS update, so I suspect it is the root cause of the problems.
I would appreciate guidance on resolving these issues as soon as possible.

Disable the app utility Magnet (app for Window snapping) it is determined to be the cause.

Are you using the app magnet? Quit it and wait for a new version

But also on an older Sonoma 14.6.1 system and another computer. I don't understand. I have uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign few times, cleared the cache, and reset preferences. The issue persists.
