heres 2  screen grabs before and after. while navigating between 'spaces' using mission control in mountain lion. issue -  the menu and tools bars disappear - not all of them just parts of them. to get back i hit 'tab' button twice which hides and shows tools. very annoying - does anyone know of a fix or is this another bug which i have to live with. im using a macpro june 2012/running 10.8.4 and 2 screens - left for artboard - right for all tool windows.

    This is a known bug. Engineering has been notified of this and it is under investigation. Let's hope for a fix in upcoming future release/update. Current workaround: Click onto the thin strip of desktop and back to InDesign seems to do the trick. Essentially, going to Finder and back.

    thanks - that's what i thought - i was just hoping (wishing) it wasnt - cause illustrator and photoshop work fine. ok - fingers crossed for an update soon.....

    Try this: Window > Workspace > Reset [name of current workspace] to restore the position of panels.

      thanks steve - yes that works as does using the tab key - all well....until i move to another 'space' and then come back again.

      for example: my setup is like this - no2 space has indesign project. no3 space has photoshop. so im working on a page within indesign and i need to edit an image- i double click the pic and it opens in photoshop on the other 'space' save the file and go back to indesign to update pic and find menu/tools all over the place - so hit tab twice back to normal -  until i 'move' out of that space into another - photoshop/ mail/ whatever - as i toggle between spaces the indesign menu will always be 'corrupt' for a better word. hope that makes sense.
