Indesign CC 2019 significantly slower than 2018 (14.0 vs 13.1)

I updated recently to version 14.0 and almost immediately I noticed a significant drop in performance, specifically when switching between the selection tool and the type tool. I work for a magazine and I am constantly editing or switching out text, and when there is a 2 to 3 second lag between the selection tool and the type tool my productivity can start to take a hit. And even more than simply the nuisance of having to move slower, it doesn't seem right for an update to retrograde my productivity as opposed to advance it. I reinstalled version 13.1 and it truly is night and day in terms of responsiveness when it comes to tool switching.

I mostly work on magazine page files with the display performance set to normal in order to not have the photos slow down my workflow. I'm working on an up to date Surface Book 2 with an i7 processor, 16gb of ram and a dedicated graphics card, running Windows 10 version 1803. I've already cleared my preferences and the cache, and have noticed no significant improvement. The odd thing is that the same performance issue is present on my 12" Macbook. That computer, however, is significantly slower than my PC, so at first I thought it was simply the difference in hardware. But for both devices to be performance issues seems odd.

Any other answers besides sticking to v13.1?

I'm sorry, but this is the final version that the end user downloads through the creative cloud


The release version of the bug fix InDesign CC 2019.0.1 (14.0.1.209) is now available through the CC Desktop app and may fix your issues.

Same problem, Indesign had become very slow when using the text tool and move tool. Moving a text frame is also slow.

each person in our 8-user test group is reporting this as well: slow, "lagging" and sluggish behavior using Indesign CC 2019. Long loading times for files. Mix of win 7, win 10 machines on properly spec'd machines.

It's like they release this stuff without testing it first.

I am using a PC running the latest version of Windows and I am having a terrible time with the new version of InDesign.  I am trying to get work done but the program freezes on me and won't let me work on it.  Like you, between the type tool and the selection tool, my program gets hung up.  It is very frustrating.

I am going to re-install the previous version and hope that that will make the difference.  I hope Adobe will correct whatever the issue is because it's no good if the program doesn't work.

Hi together,

changing the active tool to the Text tool with a delay of some seconds, for me it's about 10 to 14 seconds, is a known bug with InDesign CC 2019 version 14.0.0.130. The developers are working on a fix.

See this workaround:

Re: InDesign CC 2019 performance issues / crashes

Hi ds94589750 ,

you found the culprit, thank you very much!

Just tested this with InDesign CC 2019 on Windows 10.

Started InDesign.

Disabled the Control panel.

Did a new document.

Switched to the Type tool.

Drew out a new text frame.

No delay this time!

But then I wanted to enable the Control panel again.

Now I had a delay of a few seconds before I can see the panel appear.

So the bug is with the Control panel.

The bug is reported here:

I'm "adding my voice".  This is a VERY disappointing upgrade, far slower and buggier than the previous one...which runs MUCH faster on my 8-colr Mac/High Sierra.
