Hyperlink to open a file in server doesn't work

Those files are on a server shared by all my colleagues.

Acrobat or other pdf reader try to connect to internet instead of opening the files. whatever the option i choose in the hyperlink pannel, i see that indesign add url=http before my link.
Anyone know how we could fix that bug ???2 votes -

Support for .oam files in interactive pdf‘s
Wouldn’t it be great if you could publish an interactive Pdf and have the ability to see some basic animation to help tell your desired story? I’m not talking about an ePub here, or an outdated flash file. I’m suggesting that a widely accepted format across multiple platforms, the Pdf, should have the capability to play an lightweight animation / .oam / .gif rather than only be able to have a huge .mp4, with massive compression!
Surely by now we could have some nice .svg animation. Is html5 able to be implemented into in design? There must be a relatively…

InDesign is having huge XML limitations, even we cannot handle below mentioned basic options:
(1) Find and Replace the XML Tags with / without Parent XML Tags
(2) Find and Replace the XML Attributes based on the selected XML Tags
(3) Converting the selected contents in InDesign into XML Comments

(5) Show all selected XML Tags with relevant page numbers with link to locate the contentsMuch more…
If Adobe is start thinking on improving / breaking these requirements, will…

Preferences/Units & Increments/Cursor Key Distance
Please make this feature faster to change. It is the first preference in Illustrator and I love that. Can you make it the first preference in InDesign? I change this number a lot. Right now I have to hit command k, hit the down arrow five times, tab six times, change the number and hit enter. It wasn't always this hard. It doesn't have to be this hard now. Please fix to make it easier.

BUG? Random grey bars on screen in ID CC
I'm trying out ID CC and opened an ID C6 file to test. There are grey bars that appear randomly on screen. Not in fit in window view but in any other view when zoomed. Please see attached screen shot of the grey bars.
I'm using a 13" MacBook Pro (2017) with 16GB RAM. Under preferences, Display Performance is set to default and CPU Performance shows Compatible CPU and Monitor Detected.
How to resolve this?

Simultaneous Sharing
You should allow multiple people to work on a document simultaneously. Google docs & slides allows this with a share option, and it is free.

Endnotes placement needs to be adjusted
The way books work is that the notes to a chapter fall immediately after the end of the text, not on a new page. Please change this feature so that we can force the notes to a new page if that's how we want them, but they normally fall after the end of the text. Other than that, the dynamic endnotes feature will be nice when someone decides to add or delete notes.

Skip story in spell-check
Spell-checking a document with Lorem Ipsum (placeholder text) can be a nightmare or sometimes impossible. It would be amazing if you could either ignore placeholder text OR skip a story completely.

Show Import Options when Dragging File from Finder
When Placing a file, there is an option to show Import Options. This is helpful for inserting a select range of pages. It would be helpful if this same option was available when dragging a PDF file from my Desktop/Finder. Often times, I will have my finder window open which contains my projects home directory. Simply dragging the PDF into the InDesign document is much quicker than having to go through the process of locating in File->Place route.

Please, please, please increase the overall stability of InDesign.
I’ve lost count of the number of times functionality has gone missing (ie: unable to proportionally scale using key commands and my mouse, sliding elements vertically or horizontally without changing either their “x” or “y” coordinate (respectively), etc.
I would suggest (and I am absolutely serious about this) that Adobe take 3 months off from issuing any updates to the product and have all your techs, engineers and coders work out as many functionality issues a possible to improve the stability of the product. Don’t get me wrong, it is a fabulous product (and you have no real competition except…

Indesign Autosave
An autosave feature in Indesign would be a great addition. This could be added under the file handling menu with some options for it. A slider that allows you to set the intervals of the autosave. It would be a great addition to the auto recovery, you'd be surprised how often people forget to hit save or close it and accidentally not save when prompted.

Data Merge > Create Tagged PDF checkbox
On Data Marge > Export to PDF just let us select the "Create Tagged PDF".
For example, I have 1300 records, an 8 page document template and have to export 1300x 8pp uniquely named PDF files - files names from data.
Currently have to:
1. run the merge in groups of 100 records otherwise InDesign will hang
2. create tagged PDFs from the 13x 800pp InDesign files (50 minutes per 100)
3. combine PDFs
4. create bookmarks from content
5. split by bookmark structurePoints 1, 2 and 3 could be combined by simply allowing "Create Tagged PDF" and save…
