InDesign freezes when typing in textframe with autofit.

Hi there!

When typing in a text frame with 2 columns and auto-fitting the height from the bottom, my Indesign freezes after both columns are filled with 6-7 sentences.

Attached is the indesign file.

Important sidenote. I anchored the Title text frame to the autofitting text frame so that it's always on top of the textframe. If there are any other solutions for that, comments are also welcome!

InDesign version? Operating system?

Try saving the file as IDML and reopen in InDesign. File > Save As > InDesign CS4 or later (IDML). It could be a corrupted file.

InDesign CS6; Windows 10. I'll check the IDML suggestion!

Edit: Saving to IDML did not solve the problem.

I'm a Mac user so I can't speak with experience. I believe I've heard of problems with CS6 running in Windows 10. Perhaps others can comment.

Let's hope so. I tried it on a Mac, but the same problem occurs.

I think the problem is in the fact that i have set an asymmetric inset spacing / margin. Maybe someone from Adobe can respond?
