Now when you click on the thumbnail, Indesign want to apply the contents of the thumbnail to another thumbnail, but it does not move. What is the workaround to simply change the order of the page thumbnails? Thanks!

For some reason this was not working so I updated Indesign to 19.5 and it worked the way it's supposed to. Thanks.

That will add two pages on a facing-page document--which is a good tip.

It's really about being careful where you let go of the mouse, but nothing has changed.

Here is a short animation that shows me inserting FM parent pages. You have to be careful when adding a page between two existing pages. (I drag the label of the parent page at the end.)
