  4. [ID-4273263]With application frame "OFF", and multiple documents open InDesign 26 will resize them when switching between

    Before upgrading, I used to be able to have multipe .indd docs open next to a spreadsheet on my screen, now they automatically change size when I switch between them, seemingly "remembering" the state they were last resized to.
