InDesign - Lightroom "Edit with"
I really wish I could easily go between Lightroom and InDesign. I regularly create proposals etc in InDesign and load in images that print dark. I would love the ability to right click and edit in Lightroom. Lightroom is far better/intuitive for me for basic edits of images than Photoshop. You offer Edit in: Photoshop, After effects etc. In Premiere you offer many options but not Lightroom. Seems like it would (as a side benefit) encourage use of another of your products.

Enlarge printing on controls
Enlarge the print on the control panels so that people with low vision can see and work on InDesign and Photoshop. My vision is failing and I publish a 32 page magazine on InDesign.

Popup message if INDD document opens as "read only"
We work on a cloud server (Nasuni). There is a slight lag (up to a few minutes) when a user opens a file and the lock file is synced to the cloud server.
Occasionally, someone will be able to open a file that another user already has open. When that happens, in the document tab, the document shows as (read only). But there's nothing beyond that small text in the document tab to tell the user they are not working in a file they can save (and that someone else has the source document open).
What I would like to…

Direct selection tool selects everything - in 90 percent of the cases is unusable
The direct selection tool in inDesign and Illustrator is almost unusable due to it is selecting everything it touches.
It would be much better to have an option to select the points of the currently active object. I have lots of stacked objects, I want to work with one of the objects, but as soon as I draw a rectangle over the desired points, EVERYTHING is selected everywhere. This makes the tool almost unusable, because it is unable to make a normal selection, it's too greedy.
At least in Illustrator there is a thing "isolation mode" but in inDesign the…1 vote -
Please change the cursor back to the black default when the world made sense for design pros.
Please revert back to the action of the toolbar where "V" or the select black cursor is the default. It makes zero sense for the "A" direct select cursor to be the default.

Please make it for ChromeOS
The only thing I still use computers for is mild browsing when I need a larger screen than my phone, and creating a program once a year for a convention. I don't want to invest $600+ in a laptop just to use InDesign when my Chromebook is more than enough for everything else. Please make it accessible either online or for ChromeOS. It's long overdue.

Make "Find/Change" Queries Easier to Organize and Edit!!
Find/Change Queries are a nightmare to organize, edit, and delete.
PLEASE add basic edit functions while viewing drop-down list of Queries.
Better yet, allow Queries to be saved like INDD Libraries that are Project Specific and can be shared!

What are the causes of Quickbooks error code 15241 ?
There might be one or more of the following reasons behind the occurrence of QuickBooks Error 15241:
- The File Copy Service (FCS) in QuickBooks Desktop is turned off. This service is critical for the QB application's and payroll service's functions.
- The downloaded file was tampered with in some way.
- Alternatively, if the QuickBooks installation was not completed correctly.
- If the windows registry files were corrupted as a result of installing QuickBooks, the identical problem would appear.
- One such explanation could be a Trojan assault.
- In the event that some QuickBooks-related vital files are accidentally erased
- If your anti-virus application is…

We need a way to convert PagerMaker files to ID files
I know that I am not the only person, that there are many of us, who were loyal Pagemaker users for many years and now have a big archive of PM files. Adobe pages says that they can be opened with ID CS6, but that doesn't work for me, my CS6 gives me a message that I need a plug-in, but that plug-in isn't available anywhere. I know I'm not the only person who has asked for a plug-in to convert PM files. Please do something about this. Adobe is really failing us.

Tool for sustainable Design
Hello dear Adobe team,
At the moment there is a lot of talk about environmental problems and sustainability. Responsible use is particularly important when it comes to the use of finite and regenerative resources.
The AGD has developed a charter for sustainability for this purpose. "Designers are largely responsible for
how our world is shaped. Design shapes, design is a role model and creates
new awareness. Design consumes resources - sometimes more,
sometimes less. The sustainable use of natural resources,
with the environment and with the people who have remained in this world for generations
should be able to live,…1 vote -
Reinclude the cutter tool
The cutter tool has not been included as it was in old Pagemaker This tool is very useful. Without this tool, if you import an Autocad drawing, it is not possible to resize the content to the frame. I recommend to include this tool as it was in Pagemaker.

QR error correction level
It would be nice to have more control over the QR code generator. To be more specific: add the option to choose de Error Correction Level of the code.
That way we can make small codes smaller, (especially in combination with a url-shortner) or normal codes slightly bigger to have enough error correction to have a gap in the middle (for a logo).[X] Automatic

Align points
It would be really helpful if it was possible to align points in InDesign. I use guides to align points, but it's not quite as accurate as I want it to be. Thanks!

Sync Workspace and Prefs across all devices
InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop all drive me insane between the laptop and desktop. The workspaces are never the same. Sometimes with an update the workspace I have saved disappears and I have to start all over again setting it up. Sometimes it transfers over. There needs to be an easy way to sync the setting for workspace and preferences across all devices and save a backup of it, so InDesign on laptop matches InDesign on desktop, even after an update. Same for Illustrator and Photoshop.

Why a new .indd file format with each update?
There was a time ID didn't require a new file format with each yearly update. Although I realize some features may genuinely require a new .indd format, I'm not sure the changes to latest CC22 require one. This is the 4th or 5th consecutive change, which means I have to update all files I regularly use through the years (standards manuals and the like). I can still seamlessly open Photoshop and Illustrator files from 5-10 years ago without worrying about re-saving them.
