tried all suggestions on this community chat. had 3 different adobe techs work on this for about 3.5 hours total and each one just ended the chat without warning.

Control+D is place and was showing in my default but wasn't working. deleted EVERY folder with indesign preferences then made a new default set and reassigned a different key. it is now working.

I saw those and tried everything listed that related. Still doesn't work. Have chatted with 4 different adobe techs and each one just ended the chat with no fix.
