Frame 9 Scroll Bar Lockup

[Jenny Greenleaf]

I see the scrollbar lockup all the time. Drives me crazy, but at least the scroll wheel on my mouse works when the scroll bar stops working.  I have found that if I select another document tab, then re-select the one I was working in, the scroll bar will start working again. Sometimes. I thought maybe it was an artifact of my setup--running on a Mac with VMWare Fusion. Apparently not. 

It also drives me crazy that you can't set tabs in the Paragraph Designer while it is attached to the dock at the side. You have to float it.  I spent quite a bit of time gnashing my teeth over that one until I figured it out.

Not sure if they just laid off their entire QA team, or what.  Is there someplace official that we can report bugs?

Attempting to drag the elevator does nothing. One solution I have found is untabbing the file, but what a pain. The lockup is not 100 percent. The scroll will work OK, and then just stop, presumably because of some action that I have not been able to determine. So instead of doing my work I find myself playing with it to get it back. Has anyone else seen this and have a better solution to get it back, or better yet to stop the lockup?

Before Frame 9, after selecting "Fit Window" you could change the zoom and the "Fit" would follow automatically as long as you did not manually change the fit with the mouse. With Frame 9 this no longer works. You must often re-select the "Fit" after each zoom, but again not 100 percent of the time . A minor nuance, but new interfaces should not break existing functionality. With Frame 9 the interface broke a number of things.
