Hi,

best show a screenshot befor and after; baseline grid visible.

Are you rotating the text frame with the table?
Then enable the baseline grid of the text frame.

Details are in baselineFrameGridOptions of the text frame that is holding the table.

useCustomBaselineFrameGrid must be set to true.

I have attached the screenshot  for your reference and textframe option enabled.

You probably align text to the baseline. To get the same result in a rotated text frame, set the frame's own baseline grid. Go to the text frame options (Object > Text Frame Options), then go to the Baseline Options tab and set the frame's baseline.

Also if i move the text frame out of the margin. its throws the same results.

Hi,

thank you for posting the screenshot.

You have to work with the baseline grid of the text frame.

Ok. I see and tested this with text in a table ( InDesign 2020 version 15.0.0.155 on Windows 10 ).

Could be a bug. The custom baseline grid is not working at all if a table's text frame is rotated.

It is working with text outside a table if the frame is rotated.

So what can one do? Hm…

Duplicate the table with an extra InDesign document.

Place the InDesign document's page and rotate it.

Hi Uwe,

I think it works the same in previous versions too.

Do you think it is a break in 15.0? 

Thanks

Hi Aman,

I can already see this bug with InDesign CS6.

So: No new issue.
