Designer freezes when I select text boxes


Recommended Posts

Hi! I'm having some trouble in Designer with the selection tool when I have to select many text boxes or text+object at the same time.

When I select a bunch of text frames (one by one, with shift or control pressed) and accidentally click outside on a blank area, the selection tool turns to the text tool and the app freezes, then I have to close Designer in the Windows App Manager because it doesn't respond anymore.

The same thing happens when I have to select texts and then select objects in the same way.

Hi @Camila Medeiros welcome to the forums,

This is a known app lockout issue when double shift + clicking in a blank area with text frames selected, this bug has been fixed in the current 2.2 beta, if you wish to try the beta apps for yourself I've provided a link to the signup page below. (Note: be sure to backup your documents before opening them in 2.2, as once they have been saved they can't be opened in the release apps again.)
