Resizing text frames and photo containers issue

I upgraded to InDesign CS6 yesterday and I am having some workflow issues with the way that InDesign is handling resizing text frames and photo containers.

 

In CS5.5 (and all other versions of InDesign I have used) when I resize a text frame with overset text, as I pull the bottom handle down I can see the text dynamically popping up as the box becomes longer. Also, with photo containers holding an image larger than the frame, as I pull the frame handle I can see the image filling the space as it grows.

 

In CS6 I do not see the overset text or the additonal photo area until I release the handle. Is there a setting that I can change to make this behave more like all of the other versions of InDesign?

    What you see is dependent on how you have Live Screen Drawing set in your Preferences. Try clicking and holding then waiting a moment before starting to drag.
