This morning, InDesign was updated (version 21.6), and the split-view layout no longer works—or rather, it works only partially: the open document remains visible only on the left side, while the right side of the window is blank. I checked the zoom and page alignment, but nothing is visible.

Did you do the basic troubleshooting or deleting cache and preferences? If so and still you see and issue then can you post some screenshots of the problem and also let us know the OS as well.

I’m working on Windows 11. I have already tried the basic troubleshooting steps, including deleting the cache and preferences. I even uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign, but the issue still persists.
