Hi all – I'm not sure if this is an easy fix and I've misse dsomething so apologies in advance. My InDesign recently swapped over the way it displays info in the Control Bar at the top of the document. Font name, size, leading etc used to appear on the left of the Control Bar but now paragraph info is ther and the font info is on the right. It's a small thing but I want it back to how it was but have no idea how to reset it. I've deleted the cache but it's still the same. Any ideas?

 

Thanks
