Indesign Flashing Screen When Moving Objects

[Daisy5CF5]

Hello

I am using indesign on my 14inch macbook pro apple m1 monterey. Each time I move an object the artboard & background workspace flashes. I have checked and both my indesign & macbook softwares are up to date. 

I have noticed it seems to happen when I drag the indesign window from my main macbook screen to my seperate monitor. That seems to activate the glitch and then it flashes each time I move an object on both my macbook & monitor screen.

Hoping theres a way to fix this thanks

For me too! The GPU Performance box is grayed out. It is the internal M2 chip on the new Macs that is no longer supported.

100%!!! Turn off your rulers - use them only when necessary. Flashing stops!

I am having the same problem since updating to Sonoma. Checked and unchecked GPU performance. When Overprint preview mode is selected, I still get a white screen when using the selection tool.

@Christel23191330wocb @CoffeeBreath after using this for a couple of hours today, it is still acting up with the rulers hidden, but not nearly as much as it was originally.

Thank you for this, so annoying with the rulers on.

[CheMaBev]

Thank you!!! This worked for me too!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
The flickering was so annoying, yet such a simple fix.

Hiding rulers worked for me also! THANKKKKS

Wow been struggling with this for weeks. The GPU performance box was not clicked (and I couldn't) but turning off the rulers worked ... that's crazy. Thanks!!

I have the same issue, but my device is incompatible with the GPU Performance setting. Is there another fix?

Thanks Derek.

Saved me going mad

Exact the opposite: check GPU not UNcheck 😉

[Jimmy Palacios]

My GPU is grayed out. I dont have that option.

[markd70743250]

Some Macs do not have this option. Mac Mini M1, the option is grayed out and is not supported. 

[markd70743250]

This is not supported on a handful of Macs including the Mac Mini M1.

Why is THIS not listed as the 'ONE CORRECT ANSWER', as this fixed it! Thank you Derek Cross!

17.4 is supposed to help this problem.

[alex_inception]

Still happening with v18.

[Captain Sacha]

Still happening with 18.4

[BobLevine]

18.5 is the latest version.

[Captain Sacha]

Right, didn't see that one yet. So, is it fixed in 18.5?
