Presentation Mode Malfunctioning

My "Presentation Mode" (cmmd W) does not work properly. I used to be able to use the arrow keys to navigate through the pages of my document but now it gets stuck on the first page. Occasionally it will allow we to go from page to page but 95% of the time it will not. Also, sometimes it will start on page one and then I will hit the arrow key to go to the next page and it won't work at first but then it eventually jumps to a new page?

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling inDesign but it is still a problem. I also know several other people who are experiencing the same issue.

This did not work for me, however toggling 'gpu performance' off in preferences did it!

Is there still someone taking a look at this post with its problem? I have the exact same problem and I can't work like this, it bothers my workflow so much... (I already tried re-installing InDesign and resetting the presets with cmd+option+contr+shift.)

If you go to preferences > gpu performance and uncheck the box it works!!! -- I am so happy. Hope this helps

Hm.

No problem with my German InDesign CC 2017 on German OSX 10.10.5.

FWIW: My KBSC for presentation mode with my German InDesign is shift w

Maybe the OS is interfering with your keyboard shortcut?
