Flex Layout structure in anchored object lost on IDML/ICML round-trip
Version
Adobe InDesign 21.4.1, macOS 26.5.1Steps to reproduce
Create a Flex Layout in InDesign.
Anchor the Flex Layout to text as an anchored object.
Save the document as IDML, or export the story containing the Flex Layout as ICML.
Either reopen the saved IDML file, place the exported ICML file into a new InDesign document, or edit the ICML file in InCopy and refresh the link in InDesign.Expected result
The Flex Layout should appear identical to the original document.Actual result
The Flex Layout structure is lost entirely. The contents of text frames that were part of the Flex Layout is merged and appended at the end of the text.
