When trying to select a font, (and also happens in stroke menu) the dropdown menu flashes on and off and won't let me select it (sometimes when the font dopdown finally works it seems to have a life of its own ...)

I agree with Robert. 

 

But there could be other reasons. Can you tell us more about your system: Please tell us what operating system (exactly) you're running. Please tell us (exactly) what InDesign version you're using.
