Question

Automatic scrolling to the left issue

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone would happen to know how to fix this issue. I am using InDesign and have a doube page spread. When I zoom in, the page automatically scrolls to the left. When i go to use the scroll bar at the bottom to scroll it back over right, it won't let me select it. So i'm not able to scroll horizontally, but i can scroll vertically just fine. 

I have been looking into how to fix it and tried everything. Changed my mouse, did CTR+ALT+SHIFT when opening, closed and opened the app, and reset my computer. What else can I try? 

It's only in Indesign that this happens, and not just on one file, I have opened other files to test too and it won't top doing this,

 

thanks

Bonjour, le problème vient de la souris. J’ai eu le même problème en branchant un nouveau clavier, ça a du perturber quelques chose. Essayez avec une autre souris

Can you post a screenshot - or better yet, a video recording?
