Question

Messed up Properties dialog box for fields and buttons in fillable form

I'm trying to help one of our users with an issue editing the fields and buttons of a fillable form. After opening the Properties dialog box through the context menu, the dialog box quickly becomes an unreadable mess when clicking the various tabs. The content of each tab stacks up over what had previously been displayed. Has anyone else run into this issue? I've attached the form and a screenshot of the dialog box. We are running Continuous Version 2023.008.20533 of Adobe Pro. Thanks.

    Been searching all morning for answer to this; this is the first question I've found that could address this issue, no answer yet though. Thanks for posting. Would appreciate an answer from Adobe.
