Indesign V17 separation preview not showing colour makeup

I just updated this morning to the latest version of Indesign on my iMac running Catalina. In Indesign when you open the seperations preview panel and turn on seperations. You could hover your mouse over a colour and it would show the CMYK makeup. This appears to be broken now. I trashed preferences and that changed nothing. I also connected with someone else running on Big Sur and they have the same issues. Any fix for this? This is a super helpful tool and hate to be without it!

I have this issue since the last updates as well. Very annoying! I use this feature quite a bit.
