For what its worth I've found a recipe to reproduce this, but not exactly sure its the same road you took Mike. It seems to be adding between the split, that is causing it to occur. See video and attached file with history. Start a new document Facing Pages Start on: Right Pages 4 Draw a text frame on each side of Master A and link them together Link the frame on Page 1 to Page 2 Add identifying text S1P1 to the frame on Page 1, then insert a column break and add S1P2 This should add S1P1 on Page 1 and S1P2 on Page 2 Click the Link Frame button on Page 2 and then click the same frame to break it Link the frame on Page 3 to the frame on Page 4 Add identifying text S2P1 to the frame on Page 3, then insert a column break and add S2P2 This should add S2P1 on Page 3 and S2P2 on Page 4 Go to the Pages Panel and select ‘Add Pages’ with the following options: Pages 1: After: Page 2 Spread Wrapping: Flow Pages ✅ You should now have a page with no content between S1P2 and S2P1 In the Pages Panel delete Page 3 - note clearing masters first doesn’t seem to change the outcome ❌The second set of text (S2P1, S2P2) has gone missing.

MikeTO reacted to a post in a topic: Cross-reference issues
-
Thanks Mike, It is incredibly weird - initially I assumed it was (and might well still be) because you deleted the initial anchor and then created a new one. However, as you say you can't just repoint it to the new anchor, as it still shows as highlighted. What I did notice is that you don't even need to delete one, to then edit the broken one. You can just edit the Cross Reference Text (stick another character in the text 'page' for example) and click OK. This will cause the CR marked as 'OK' to be updated (you should see the changed value), the broken one will then display without an anchor selected - which would make sense as its reporting it as missing. You're then able to reselect the anchor. So it does feel like there are some cross references here that think they are the same. I'll get the document passed on to see if we're able to sus out the root cause!

Crash on cross-reference target update
Sean P replied to MikeTO's topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
Hi Hangman - I did notice that myself - I was unable to reproduce on Windows, but could on macOS. -
Hi Mike, Would you be ok to upload a copy of your document below please? https://www.dropbox.com/request/sCAOhG1zA9TMVqLc1g04 With regards to the History Entry it is technically correct - the cross-reference is a field that gets converted to regular text. I will try to find out if its possible to give it a different name.

Keyboard Shortcuts for Zooming In/Out Bug..
Sean P replied to Ron P.'s topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
Thanks for that Ron, it seems that when you clear the shortcut, re-adding it, isn't adding the Num+ behaviour, so I will pass that on! -
Keyboard Shortcuts for Zooming In/Out Bug..
Sean P replied to Ron P.'s topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
Hi Ron, I think you've misunderstood what Ronny was saying in that thread and what I was saying was intentional. He was saying when you use the zoom in shortcuts it doesn't zoom in on the selection, which is what I was saying was an intentional design. What you are seeing about those shortcuts not working in retail is NOT an intentional design choice. The keys should function the same in both retail or beta and there have been no changes to that area recently to my knowledge. These keys are working for me in 2.5.7 retail using both the _/- and +/= keys as well as NumPad+ and NumPad- keys (using a UK layout). Photo and Designer both Retail and Beta are also the same. In the ones that are not working it might be worth resetting your shortcuts to see if that solves it. ZoomShortcuts.mp4 -
macOS Designer - Zoom issue
Sean P replied to ronnyb's topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
This is currently an intentional design choice, and is not new to this beta. We do have a Zoom To Selection shortcut (Cmd+Shift+0) which seems like it should do what you want for the most part. -
Is this fixed in the current Beta please?
Sean P replied to Corgi's topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
Hi Corgi, This is still an issue in the existing Beta. I have passed your comments over. Thanks, -

If you change font first and then drag out the Artistic Text frame does it display the preview 'A' correctly? -
Publisher 2.6 shows tricks with fonts
Sean P replied to anto's topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
I believe this is likely the same problem manifested in a different way. The app is using Arial to show the A, but due to the bug, its unable to render A (in the same way the ruler isn't rendering numbers) so you don't actually see it. -
Publisher 2.6 shows tricks with fonts
Sean P replied to anto's topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
Hi Anto, I've finally run into this issue, and although I'm not able to reproduce it in the same way you were, I believe I've found a reliable way of reproducing it. It is now logged with development. Start either Designer or Photo from a clean start Create a new document (I used Print - Letter Portrait preset) I don’t think the document matters especially, but creating a document at this step does - without it I wasn’t reproducing the issue. File > Open and select the attached Blur - Copy.afphoto file Switch to the Slices Persona ❌Observe that nearly all the text is missing Switch persona and add some artistic text Attempt to type using Arial ❌Observe it will come out in Greek Note: If you create a slice in the document in Step 2 prior to opening the document in Step 3, it changes which characters are displayed incorrectly.
