Been experiencing this weird glitch/lag ever since I installed the new indesign update. Everything works fine and smoothly its just annoying this keeps happening. I just zoom in and out to make the page go back to normal before it happens again. Anyone know how to fix this?

Hi @stylish_grace98A2,

 

Thanks for sharing the screenshot. Could you please confirm your operating system details and whether you're using the latest InDesign version 21.0? This kind of visual glitch can sometimes be related to display rendering. Please check if GPU Performance is enabled in your InDesign preferences, and let me know if the issue appears only when using GPU Preview. Try switching to CPU Preview from the View menu and see if that helps.

Also, could you confirm whether your workflow leading up to the issue involves using the Hand tool? If possible, please share a short screen recording showing your workflow up to when the issue occurs.

Lastly, make sure your graphics drivers and operating system are fully updated.

 

Looking forward to your update.

yes I'm using 21.0. Yes it's enabled; I switched it to CPU preview and its much smoother now when I use the hand tool.

Thanks for confirming the details @stylish_grace98A2,

Please try performing a clean reinstallation of the GPU(s) drivers (Intel / NVIDIA / AMD) and setting the Graphics Preference to High-Performance for InDesign (https://adobe.ly/4rfuIGm) and checking if it helps.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
