[ID-4272086]TAB indents are getting removed on dragging the left side
Good morning, I updated InDesign to version 21 and I'm having problems with the tab stops on both PCs. In the tab settings, if I set three tab stops, for example, the first at 10 cm, the second at 20 cm, and the third at 30 cm, if I move the first one, the other two disappear.
With the beta version, there were no problems. I tried resetting the preferences, but nothing. A technician connected and checked the problem. He said to report the bug.
The fix of the issue is now available in the latest InDesign 2026(v21.0.1.006). We recommend you upgrade to the latest version for the fix.
If you are unable to see the update, go to the Creative Cloud application, click on the context menu on the top right, and click on Check for App Updates.

Adjusting tabs in the latest version of InDesign is broken. Whether you try to adjust the location of a tab using the arrow keys on the keyboard, dragging the tab location with the mouse, or entering a precise value, if it's not the last tab on the line, InDesign deletes the tab you are trying to work on.
Reverting back to v20.5 solves the problem, but I've already converted several publications to newer versions and am hoping for a quick fix before having to use IDML to roll those publications back.

Adding or editing (moving) new tab is resetting the old ones

When opening INDD files on v 21.0, tabs to the right of a tab you are moving disappear and we lose the tab setup. We need this fixed fairly urgently, as we use tabs quite frequently.
