Moves with arrow keys do not apply to objects if cursor is hovering over a link
- Place an image or a PDF in an InDesign file
- Create a text frame/shape/any object
- Select the object you just created with direct select tool (keep it selected)
- Move your mouse to hover over the link so that the center circle link highlight shows. Do not select the linked image, just hover over it.
- Press and hold an arrow key to try and move object.
In CC2024 19.3: If I hover over a link with my mouse, the selected object moves as expected with the arrow keys.
In CC2025 20.2: If I hover over a link with my mouse, the selected object does not move with the arrow keys. Only when I move my cursor off the link will the selected object move (or jump to catch up to my previous use of the arrow keys)
This is a very annoying bug as when I'm trying to adjust objects, I'm not consciously picking where I "park" my mouse in my layout as I adjust objects. This slows down work considerably and might unintentionally create errors.
