Placed Vector Images not updating correctly.

Question

Hi Indesign Guru's.I was wondering if you had the same issue as me.I had a vector asset placed in Indesign, I opened the vector asset in Illustrator and updated the colour only.I saved the vector in Illustrator.Then when I went back into Indesign CC2019 I assumed it would update the colour as per previous versions of Indesign.It did update the colour but it changed the size and location of all Vector assets in Indesign.I did not change the dartboard or move anything in illustrator, so I dont understand why this did not update properly, its not Quark Express! This was very frustrating as I had to reposition all of the vector assets, this it did not happen in Indesign CC 2018.I was just wondering if there were any others who have come across this issue.Or if I have missed an updated setting from Adobe Indesign in the CC19 updates.I have done a bit of an internet search and not found much out there.Looking forward to the responses.Cheers Dan.

Hi Dan - it sounds like it could be the import options:

If the crop options change to anything different to how the file was originally placed then Indesign will change the scale and position of that file due to inclusion/absence of additional areas.

I don't know how the import options have changed by themselves though
