Screen not refreshing

Every time I make a text change in InDesign, the screen doesn't refresh properly.

It displays the edited text but also the text prior to the edit.

It refreshes when I click on an object, so I can work with it, but it is annoying nevertheless.

I am running a brand new iMac and am having no other apparent problems, other than the screen refresh glitch in InDesign.

Click on the rocket ship icon and turn off GPU performance.

Hi Fred,

look into your keyboard shortcuts. There should be a "Force Redraw" command.

In my German InDesign 2020 on Windows 10 it's listed like that:

Produktbereich : Ansichten, Navigation
Aktualisierung erzwingen --- Standard: Umschalt+F5

The default KBSC is: Shift+F5

I am on Windows 10 Pro with InDesign CC v15. there is no rocket ship. What is not refreshing are the footers which use text variables--the only way I can get them to display a change is to move to the spread before or after and then move back. Is there a keyboard shortcut which can be used to refresh the page?

Where can I find the rocket ship icon? I'm on a Mac, guessing it's a windows thing?
