Four months later, seems like Adobe has not fixed this problem (very typical of them).. This just started, and not even after any update in OSX or Adobe. Running 10.9.4 and InDesign CC 2014. Nice if adobe would post a fix on here....
By the way, this is happening in ALL DOCUMENTS, not just new ones, even documents created years ago.. When opened, this problem happens.
It occurs whenever a block of text is selected. First that block disappears, then the whole page disappears. It can be brought back by moving the text frame around for a redraw.
