InDesign: Align Tool Stopped Working

I have been working on an Indesign project for days and suddnely the Align Objects stopped working.

I am using InDesign 2020 downloaded from my subscription to the Creative Cloud Suite.

I use Align Objects to aling text boxes and photos.

I have tried closing and reopening the file and then reinstalling InDesign.

Can anyone tell me why Align Objects would suddnely stop working?

Can anyone tell me how I can get it working again?

Thank you,

John

I just figured it out.

For some reason the setting: "Align To Margins" had gotten changed to "Align to Selection".

Yikes, that was strange and time consuming.

I have no idea how this setting got changed.
