Lately, when I switch between open files in InDesign, the program window goes completely red and hangs briefly before switching. Any idea as to the cause of this? I'm leaning that it's a software issue since it's happening on two separate machines. All help is welcome.

Same problem here too... major squint-face when closing window.

Same problem, same specs. I have to throw on shades when closing a window.

Hi,

can you confirm the version of your InDesign and the operating systems you are using?

I would suspect the hardware (video card, Ram...) might create this situation.
