Elements Disappearing in Preview mode in InDesign

This past week I've been having issues with images and elements disappearing in both view mode and preview mode. Attached is a screenshot of the flowers disappearing in the preview mode but showing the drop shadow. I have restarted my computer numerous times, check the nonprinting mode for each element and layer, and have reinstalled InDesign. Issue hasn't been resolved. Screen Shot 2021-05-18 at 2.52.14 PM.pngScreen Shot 2021-05-18 at 2.52.28 PM.png

Hi there,

 

So sorry to hear about this trouble. Could you please confirm which OS and version of InDesign is this? Is the issue related to a specific document?

Does it show the same behavior on new document? If yes, could you please share the document with us? You can upload it to the Creative Cloud (https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/share.html) and share the download link. 

 

Regards,

Srishti

You checked the non-printing mode, but have you also checked the blend mode (Window > Effects)? White or light-colored objects set to multiply could cause this to happen.

I have the same issue. I draw a line (also tried circle and square). In preview mode they all disappear. Layer is set to print. No EFX.

This is really annoying. I have not idea what this is.

It cannot be my settings, because this is a brand new indesign install that reset all my settings.

Any ideas?
