GREP will not search forward after 14.0.2 update

[JohnMcKercher]

After the latest update GREP will not search forward. Searching using text works fine but if I switch to GREP and enter the same word it will not find going forward but will search going backwards but then stops after finding a few instances.

I've trashed preferences and that didn't help and have found the same issue with older and newer files. Using a previous version of InDesign and it works fine.

Anyone else seeing this?

Hi John,

your issues could be related to this new bug with 14.0.2:

Raise your voice there.

In the meanwhile try to go back to InDesign CC 2019 14.0.1.209.

You could do this easily with an installer you will find on InDesign Prerelease.

Uninstall InDesign CC 2019.
You should be able to install 14.0.1.209 from the CC Desktop App.

Regards,
Uwe
