Improvements to the publish online platform
It would be interesting to improve the "Publish Online" platform, such as adding options to flip the pages of digital files in interactive pdf. Add visualization options by region in Analytics. Making it easier for the developer and users.
And also add resources for ebooks.
And also organization options. As creating folders, it would help a lot.1 vote -
Full screen mode while in portrait view on iPhone and other devices
It might just be my olddd iPhone 6 but portrait view always leaves navigation bar and footer bar on screen when viewing.
Now until responsive layouts become a feature (wish), then if we want to create a portrait layout publication/document for viewing on a device, full- screen doesn't happen for me and others. It would nice to be able to enable this, as in landscape view.

Publish Online Download Counter
Please add a download counter for how many times your published document is downloaded to the Publications Analytics. This would be so useful as part of counting metrics of user engagement!

More motion paths and editable options
I am increasingly finding myself trying to find animation workarounds to achieve what should be simple animation results.
Making the motion path more editable with increased functions and options would help.
As an example I seem to always have a need for a graphic to need a pivoting point motion. So if you had an object that need to rotate around a fixed point, we can use the rotate animation option, but it can't go in reverse or go back and forth.
Imagine a hand waving, it would rotate one way but not loop back in the other direction. And…

Option to LOCK files
We have an increasing list of online published documents that are at increased risk of being saved over or deleted.
A lock file feature would be useful and peace of mind.

Slow publication analytics loading
Most of time our analytics / statistics pop-up is VERY slow to load. Sometimes it doesn't load at all.
Can it be speeded up. Is there a reason its slow?
(PS I don't mean the 90 minute update lag, I mean any figures showing at all)

Change pasteboard / background page colour
The dark grey isn't always best!
Often a page may have a dark background which doesn't sit will on a dark pasteboard background.
An option to change this background colour even if from a limited palette would be good.

Force / open in full screen view when user views the online document
As can be achieved with standard PDFs, I think it would be useful to have a 'force full screen' option with a pop up warning that says page is requesting full screen - allow or not.
Many documents with heavy content almost 'need' to be fullscreen for the best viewing experience.
This option would remind the user that full-screen is best, but with the pop-up box that allows them to continue in the current window size.

Online document pre-loading / slow first screen animations
When a viewer first accesses a published document the first screen or cover page can be slow to load.
Often we include animated elements here and they will stutter and glitch on first loading in any browser.
Is there a way to pre-load the online document before it appears so the viewer doesn't experience a poor animated first page?

Android Chrome - publish online incompatibility.
Publish online is a great idea with a brilliant future and I love it. Hope Adobe will continue to update it although I am not so sure. Most major browsers on Safari Firefox Opera Chrome Mi on desktop or mobile Windows IOS and Android, look they r working fine. There are issues with Android Chrome which in some countries is a big issue. (browsing a published document with Android Chrome control bar next-previous buttons appear instantly and then disappear and can't bring them back, touch, zoom seem not to be working either and browsing freezes)

Publish online
Hello. It would be good if when publishing online the filename of the current open file is on the tittle by default instead of the last uplodaded file. (windows 10)
Thank you

Undo Delete or "Trash Folder" in Online Published Dashboard
We were so happy to find adobe online publishing so that in these times we can reach our customers digitally. But i am sad to see that the options and features are very limited. Today it happened that i accidentally deleted a published document, that was also sent to my 6000 customers per newsletter. After a very long chat with CS, i was told to write here. Nothing can be done, i cant reactived to undo my deleted document.

Video player controls in publish online too small when starting retina document
When starting a document in bigger dimension (for example iPad retina) the controls of the viewer are very small. They are bigger when started as iPad1024x768. Shouldn't the controllers be based on percentages of the width of the screen?

Folders within dashboard
Would be good to be able to organise published documents into folders. Like many users, we are piling up documents and need to get more organised with them. One long list isn't helpful

Exporting text from unchained boxes
The ability to export selected unchained text boxes into ONE text file, by selecting them and then exporting, rather than having to export multiple boxes into multiple files, and then collating them. And have them appear in order.
This would very useful when exporting text from print to the web, being able to extract an entire story in one hit, or when extracting, for example, multiple quote boxes
At the moment one has to export an entire page and it just turns into a mush1 vote -
Archivo físico además de publicación online.
Además del link que se obtiene en "publish online" muchos clientes quieren archivo físico animado e interactivo. Actualmente sólo se puede publicar mediante link o app, y el pdf está muy limitado para animaciones ¿Adobe, de lleno en la era digital y no se puede crear archivo "físico" animado e interactivo desde Indesign?. El EPUB da muchos problemas así que no es válido.

Accessibility Facilitate workload & Preview mode for barriers
For large projects, for example we are currently working on 46 brochures for a redesign, it would be more economical if the workload for accessible PDFs would be significantly lower. We have to split the production due to the high effort (creating all formats, meta descriptions with SEO incorporation, creating articles, alt texts, etc.) and can only produce fully accessible for the next production. This is a great pity, but not possible otherwise due to the tight project schedule.
It would be great if the articles resulted from the formats or an assignment via drag & drop (or as in…

empty state
why did you remove the option to add empty state in the object state palette (Indesign 2021)? This feature was available in Indesign 2020 and very useful as it saved a lot of time. Can you bring it back please? Thank you.

Saving Online PDF on different cloud
There needs to be an option to save the online published PDF on either google drive or iCloud or dropbox. When we have to handover projects which involve ebrochures, its a prime necessity that the Urls generated can be stored by the client itself. Being a designer, I dont know how to send all the rights to the client for online published data.
