Create Alternate Layout is buggy
I wanted to create one alternative Layout so that I can export my DIN A3 file also as DIN A4 sized file.
I created an alternate Layout as usual.
I expected having all 12 pages twice in 2 different Sizes, (one in A3 and one in A4)
What InDesign did was it created 4 different Alternate Layouts and distributed the 12 pages among the 4 layouts.
Meaning I have 2 Layout I did not create and I cannot move the pages back to the original layout.
Also it did not resize the design, styles and texts as usual, instead they are cut off.
Since the "Undo / Redo" functionality is currently also deactivated or broken I cannot undo that step and my file is toast now.

I now downloaded an older version of indesign (20.5.2) opened my file there. I tried to create an alternate layout again and I have the same bug. I opened an older version of the file and recreated the same.
Also i cannot move the pages / Spreads from the faulty unwanted "alternate" layout back to the original layout.
For me that means minutes before finishing my task of the day my file is unusable.
I am outraged!
