group images by page
we would like to have the option to show links or images grouped by page because we have some time same images in 60 pages and we then want to replace them only on specif pages. so instead of doing it one image at a time, we could then just replace the images based on pages.

snapping
I would like for InDesign to snap my objects to the grids and margins I made instead of to random spots right next to it, as seen in the image I attached. I work in a document for print, so it is not snapping to pixels or whatever.
It snaps to random stuff and every **** textbox or image is a ton of work. When making magazines at high speed this really slows me down so much that I want to look into other software to do the job as Adobe is clearly nog the right partner to do this.

Be able to access loaded place cursor.
When you place multiple images they are in the loaded place cursor until you place all of them. If you do not place all of them it is not possible to get back to the loaded cursor with the rest of the images.
Being able to access the loaded place cursor with remaining images either through a shortcut or interface would be great.

Always open a image file on Photoshop
The request is pretty clear in the title. How nice it would be to double-click, with option button hold down, over an image and open it in Photoshop instead of Preview even if the default image application is set to preview.

Option to customize the angle of the stroke cap
It would be nice if we can determine the angle of the stroke cap instead of the default 90°, a simple option that would let you customize it to make sharp caps. I've made a simulation using forms to illustrate what I meant. A nice workaround that you should implement is the basic “outline stroke” feature that exists on Illustrator.

Edit ALL gaps in a selection.
It would be super helpful if you could edit ALL the gaps in a selection of objects with the gap tool, so matter the layout. See attached example of boxes – would be amazing is you could select and edit all gaps with the gap tool, perhaps with a new keyboard shortcut? That is all, thanks in advance! Anders

Ignore effects
Just like you can "Ignore text wrap" it would be very helpful to be able to "Ignore effects" on objects and text frames.
Often you have a lot of shadows and other effects that you don't want certain objects to be affected by.
In the example here I have put a dark outer glow on the text frame that I want to affect the background picture – but not affect the logo or the bar code box.
I know you can get around it with making sure that these objects are put on top of the text frame – or…

A shortcut / button that automatically expands your selected shape to fill the page
I find myself drawing many rectangles a day to create backgrounds for a document. It's obviously no problem at all, but seems the process could be sped up if I could just use a shortcut that automatically resizes a selected shape to fill the page, and it would also remove the potential for error if you haven't quite lined up the rectange correctly. Maybe there's already a solution for this?

Stroke cap and paragraph rule styles
It would be incredibly useful to have the option for more control over the end cap in stroke styles/paragraph rules. For example, in Illustrator there is the option to use a softened end cap as opposed to a straight cut off, but InDesign only has a straight edge option, making it difficult to build an elegant line style without importing it as a graphic (this feature is sorely lacking in pursuits such as book design). The stock line styles feel garish or clunky and it would be oh-so-nice to be able to edit these or have more options to choose…

The Color Tab in the Find/Change dialog box
About the new feature in the Find/Change dialog box, under the Color Tab.
It gives us the choice of finding a color and changing it to another color.But I've got an instance today where I wanted to change the Text that was Red to Bold & Italics.
There is no option in that dialog box to change a color to a Character Style or a Paragraph Style. I had to find the Red text and then change it manually to a Character Style.
I sincerely think that there should be such option.

Content Aware Bleed
Many files I receive have images placed cropped to the border of pages and when the box is expanded there is no more image there. I would like a function that knows the bleed area, enlarges the image box, and fills in the appropriate image bleed data. This would be similar to the Crop tool in Photoshop with content aware checked on. Perhaps this could be done on an additional layer on top of the current image.

Add a feature like Figma’s Smart Selection rearrange
When creating catalogs or similar things, it would be great to be able to select multiple items and be able to quickly and automatically switch the order of the groups similar to Figma’s Smart Selection
