Text wrap with conditional text

      I have a document with lots of illustrations which use Text Wrap. The document also has Conditional Text. When I hide the conditional text, the text wrap options on some of the objects are ignored (so the text no longer wraps around them) until I change the text wrap options somehow (it doesn't seem to matter how) or move the document.

      I'm moving the objects around quite a bit and turning the conditional text on and off as I set this, so obviously this is getting quite annoying. Is this a bug, and is there anything I can do about it?

      I'm not sure I understand. You have a story that wraps around an object. The story has conditional text. When you hide the conditional text, the text wrap stops working?

      Yes, but I figured it out. The conditional text wasn’t the problem except insomuch as hiding and showing it caused the paragraphs to recompose (and the recomposition caused text wrap to stop working). The problem was our old friend, span columns. When I turned span columns off in all the styles where it was applied, the problem stopped.
