Control Panel Malfunction in Objects subpanel

Question

InDesign version 18.2.1 x64 PCThere are several selected items in the Objects subpanel that are not properly displayed in the Control Panel. I have ticked the checkboxes for each of the items one-by-one to see where the malfunction appears. On my system, the items between Frame Fitting (Object) down to Distribute do not display. Oddly enough, the next item after Distribute which is Object Style displays properly. (see screenshots) I have tried the suggestions I found in the Community to try to solve my problem such as resetting the workspace, deleting my preferences at start-up, clearing the cache, and making sure the UI to small. However, none have restored the items.

Have you tried clicking the little gear icon on the far right side of the Control Panel which is labeled "Customize Control Panel"? It might be that you do not have enough pixels to show all of the parts of the Control Panel that you want to see. I see this frequently on mid-range monitor screens such as drive ~1366 pixels. Anyway, if you turn off some features that you don't use, it will make room to display the features that you do want to use.
