Why some objects move around when I change document size.
Indesign 2020. Is there some object related option somewhere to move with layout?

With your Pages Tool selected, select all of the pages in the Pages Panel, look in the Control Panel and set the Liquid Page Rule to Off. There also a Liquid Layout panel under Window>Interactive

Also, if you change the Document Setup’s Width and Height (don’t click Adjust Layout...), the page items will stay put, and the added dimensions will get added relative to the spine with Facing Page docs. Custom sized pages will not change.

This is not what is happening for me. I have of course by now clicked the Adjust Layout button in an attempt to turn it off, but am unable to do so...Am I to understand that once you click it, you can't go back? Do I need to copy and paste everything into new document?

Now that I look closer, I see that it's happening to some pages and not others. Maybe there's another reason some pages are affected and not others? I'll try to figure out what's different.

Thanks for your help.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. Does turning off Adjust layout/ Liquid layout help resolving the issue?

                         

 

 

Let us know if this helps or if you have any further questions.

 

Regards,

I have this problem too. Srishti, how does one turn off Adjust Layout? I don't see anywhere to do so.

See the right image of Srishti post.

Remember, never say you can't do something in InDesign, it's always just a question of finding the right workaround to get the job done. © David Blatner
