InDesign panels not expanding

Question

Since the last two updates, my panels (that I have fixed to the right side of my workspace) are no longer expanding when clicked. This function still works perfectly fine in Illustrator and Photoshop, but not InDeisgn. To fix it I have to use as a floating toolbar which is fine but still annoying. Just wondering if this is a common issue / if there will be a fix?

Thanks

There's a few things you can try

Try resetting your preferences:
The easiest way to reset everything is to delete the InDesign preferences: as soon as InDesign starts to boot hold down Shift, Alt, Ctrl (and Apple/Cmd if working on a Macintosh). A dialog will appear asking to delete the InDesign Preferences, select 'Yes' on this dialog.

Reinstalling rarely fixes everything - you can do a complete reinstall using the

Rollback to a previous InDeisgn version
