1. 字取り機能の改善リクエスト (improvement to "jidori" feature request)

   日本語版独自の「字取り」機能で設定できるのは「文字数」に限られているため、不便な場面が多いです。
   文字数以外の設定はテキストフレーム/フレームグリッドに関わらずフレームグリッド設定に依存します。これを知らずに「字取り」を使いこなせていないユーザーも多いです。

   添付画像 1 に示したのは、私が不便だと感じたケースの全てです。そして（ ）の中には私の仕事での主な使い道です。
   本文とはサイズの異なる文字（見出し段落に字取りを用いる場合が多い）
   字間の広げられたフレームでの挙動（おまけ）
   ストーリー内に配置された、文字サイズの異なる表（一般に表の文字サイズは本文より小さい場合が多い）

   私はこれらの問題を、アンカー付きオブジェクトを挿入、
   あるいは「字取り」を用いずに、
   ホワイトスペースを挿入、トラッキングで調節、文字前後のアキ設定
   などで代用しています。
   つまり、とても不便なのです。

   今回、代案を考えてみました。なかなかの時間をかけました。
   皆さんの賛同が欲しいです。

   添付画像 2 は文字パネルのスクリーンショットです。
   従来のグラフィカルなコントロールを廃止し、フライアウトメニューに格納することで、より詳細な設定を可能にすることを提案します。
   これは「縦中横」や「割注」、あるいは「下線」や「打ち消し線」と同様に扱うこととします。

   添付画像 3 は設定ダイアログのアイディアです。
   まず先頭に、他の機能と同じようなチェックボックス。
   これで「字取り」をオン/オフします。
   次に、ラジオボタンで
   1 文字サイズ、字数、字間 の３要素で設定、
   2 字取りの幅（縦組み時は高さ）をダイレクトに設定
   を選択します。

   いかがでしょうか。

   jidori feature improvement request

   The "Jidori" function unique to the Japanese version can only be set to "character count," which is inconvenient in many situations.
   Settings other than the number of characters depend on the frame grid settings regardless of the text frame/frame grid. Many users are unaware of this and are not able to use the "Jidori" function well.

   Attached image 1 shows all the cases I found inconvenient. And in parentheses ( ) are the main usages in my work.
   -Characters of different size from the main text (in many cases, the character spacing is used for heading paragraphs)
   -Behavior in frames with extended character spacing (an added bonus)
   -Tables of different font sizes placed within a story (in general, the font size of tables is often smaller than the body text)

   I have solved these problems by inserting anchored objects,
   or without using "Jidori",
   I have used whitespace, tracking adjustments, and tracking/leading aki.
   In other words, it is very inconvenient.

   This time, I tried to come up with an alternative. It took me quite a long time.
   I would like VOTE.

   Attached image 2 is a screenshot of the text panel.
   I propose to do away with the traditional graphical controls and store them in a fly-out menu.
   This should be handled in the same way as "TateChuYoko", "WariChu", or "Underline" and "Strikeout".

   Attached image 3 shows an idea for a settings dialog.
   First, a checkbox at the top, similar to the other functions.
   This will turn on/off the "Jidori".
   Next, radio buttons for
   1 3 elements (Font size, number of characters, and character spacing),
   2 Directly set the characters width (or height for vertical formatting).
   Choose one of the above.

   How do you like it?

   The only slight drawback is that it is not compatible with lower versions of the application at all.
   But isn't it nice?

2. Only swatches used in object, paragraph, or character styles would be synchronized.

   If I don't want to synchronize swatches and object styles, but just paragraph styles.
   The problem is that when I synchronize paragraph styles, all swatches are synchronized, even colors that are only used in object styles, and unnecessary swatches are added even if I deselect the swatches and and object styles in the Synchronize Options dialog.

   Ideally, only swatches used in object, paragraph, or character styles would be synchronized when synchronizing any of those styles.

   I would like to avoid adding unnecessary swatches to the document that are not related to synchronizing any of those styles.
   Also, I would like to prevent synchronization from occurring if the swatches option is deselected in the Synchronize Options dialog.

   However, since I don't want to synchronize the swatches, it will still be synchronized even if I deselect it.
   (I deselect the swatches option after selecting any or all of those styles to synchronize.)

   I understand that when object, paragraph, or character styles are selected in the Synchronize Options dialog, the swatches are also be synchronized as reported in fixed issues page.
   https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/fixed-issues.html

   If all swatches are always synchronized even if the swatches option is deselected when synchronizing any of those styles,
   the swatches option should be selected and inactive(grayed out) to prevent it from becoming deselected.

   ---

   1. Only swatches used in any styles should be synchronized, not all swatches.
   2. When synchronizing any styles, there should be a checkbox to synchronize or not synchronize related styles or swatches.
   3. These should be applied to table and cell styles as well.
   4. If the swatches option is not selected, it should not be synchronized, just like if any other style option is not selected.

   If I don't want to synchronize swatches and object styles, but just paragraph styles.
   The problem is that when I synchronize paragraph styles, all swatches are synchronized, even colors that are only used in object styles, and unnecessary swatches are added even if I deselect the swatches and and object styles in the Synchronize Options dialog.

3. Update text box design so that the middle bottom anchor point isn't almost always hidden by "Explore more text options" / "O" icon

   The text box needs an update. I can almost never adjust the size of my text boxes from the middle bottom anchorpoint, butcause the "O" icon for "Explore More Text Options" is on top of it or near enough to it that I can't select the anchorpoint. I need to be able to resize text boxes from the bottom middle anchorpoint. Adjusting the size with the bottom right anchorpoint isn't a usually a good option because the width will change slightly.

   Fix this issue by moving the O icon away from any anchorpoints outside of the box somewhere.

4. Footnote references in header rows of tables should not be repeated

   It is desirable that text in table headers is repeated in the second and subsequent text frames.
   But it is not good that footnote references are also repeated in headers. This is because the footnote for the corresponding references is to be found on the page where the reference is first mentioned, but not on the following pages of the table, which breaks across pages.

5. measure and determine the height of a letter in millimeters or centimeters

   Add a feature to InDesign that will allow you to measure and determine the height of a letter in millimeters or centimeters. I work in a studio that deals with environmental design and signage, and we constantly need to know the height of the characters in millimeters during work.
   Today, the solution to the problem is to create a rectangle the same size as the size of the characters and see the size of the rectangle in millimeters, then adjust the size of the characters according to the rectangle, until it roughly fits. This is a really big problem and solving it will make our lives unbelievably easier and allow us to do things precisely. Please make it possible in future versions

8. Put the Overset text warning directly at the beginning of the export file process

   When I want to export a PDF, InDesign kindly reminds me of overset text or missing links. However, I do not understand why this warning appears at the very end, after I have gone through the file location selection and PDF export settings. Obviously, I want to correct this error in 95% of cases. Instead, I have to cancel the export, then go through the entire process again. The file location, file name, and any PDF export settings I might have changed are lost, and I have to start all over again.

9. Option to disable the drop shadow in artboard on screen mode "Normal" of the "View" menu

   Please, enable an option to disable the drop shadow on the artboard in 'Normal' screen mode in the 'View' menu (on the right side and in the footer of the artboard/sheet). The shadow makes it very difficult to achieve accurate positioning and alignment of objects. I found several people on Google complaining about the same thing, and there is no solution! The "Preview", "Bleed" and "Spacer" options do not have the shadow, but they also do not display what is on the workspace outside of the artboard/sheet. The "Normal" screen mode has to look like the artboard/sheet in Illustrator. I'm sending a screenshot with the problem marked and another showing how it should look.

10. Directly create transparency on letters/words in a text frame

    Currently it is not possible to define a letter or words within a text frame with a certain percentage of transparency. It is only possible to adjust the Tint. In the Effects Panel, the Transparency options are greyed out (not accessible).

    Sometimes in a design you want to create such text effects, which at the moment can only be achieved with a workaround: an anchored text frame which poses several challenges if the transparent text runs over several lines.

    Affinity Publisher offers this right out of the box in the current version (2.3.1). Quark Xpress can do this as well. It would be great if InDesign also offers this functionality. Thank you!

    Please see attached screenshots to compare the two setups.

11. Parent Text Boxes (automatic text copying)

    There should be a feature that allows you to mirror the text from another ("parent") text box. This feature would essentially be like the parent pages but would be focused on an individual text box/text that is linked to a parent text box. It would automatically change/copy the parent text boxes text and styles.

12. Paragraph style — Bullets Same as text Color option

    When creating a bullet style in paragraph styles, could there be an option to have the bullet character the same color as the text color?

    Similar to the paragraph rule options.

    I know create character styles for this, and it is still a good feature, but you need to create multiple bullet styles if your page has a dark background.

    I hope my explanation makes sense.

14. Publish Online: change the position of the "PDF preferences" field

    You can only choose a PDF preference if you have marked the first square field under this topic. Because we normally read from top to bottom this is not logical.

    Please change it so that “PDF-Einstellungen herunterladen” is under the “Benutzern gestatten, das Dokument als PDF (Druck) herunterzuladen”. In the second screenshot you can see my suggestion.

15. Variables with long definitions to wrap to next line

    Currently, variables do not break across lines. I have documents with tables and variables. If the variable has a long definition, I have to shrink the font to get the text to fit in the cell when it could easily wrap to the next line. FrameMaker's variables have this capability. InDesign should be able to do the same. PLEASE!

16. Make Libraries Panel Drag & Drop When Adding

    Hi There,

    I only use libraries for one client but am quickly discovering it's not that intuitive. It's great that libraries now isn't the default but when you need it, why can't you drag everything into it?

    Obvious examples...
    - You can't drag colours
    - You can't drag text styles (paragraph or character)

    And regarding text, if you drag a text box, dragging it back should add the textbox with text etc. If you drag a text style onto an existing text box, it should only apply the style etc.

    Just let us add anything to the library via drag and drop - right?

    Cheers, Ben

17. Indesign 2024 not working with window-snapping apps

    I recently upgraded to InDesign 2024. I use BetterSnapTool to arrange my app-windows in order to have a efficient and practical workflow. But InDesign 2024 does not work with BetterSnapTool (BST) or any other window-snapping apps due to this reason I received from the BST support:
    "Unfortunately all window manager apps on macOS are affected by this, Adobe has broken their window resizing behavior in their recent updates. Their products do not respond correctly to window resizing requests using the macOS Accessibility API anymore. As of now I don't think there is anything I can do to fix this. If possible please also report to Adobe, they would need to fix this in their apps."
    BST works with every other application. I have reset InDesign preferences, but it still does not work properly. Therefore I still use InDesign 2023, since BST works perfectly fine with that application. The problem is that when I for instance snap ID2024 to 2/3 of the screen and I put another application in 1/3 of the screen (so far it works) but when I go to the 1/3 app and copy information and return to ID2024, ID2024 goes back to full screen again. Very annoying and it destroys my workflow. Adobe please fix this! I enclose a short videoclip to show how badly it behaves...

20. InDesign Cannot Set Actual Text (Accessibility)

    InDesign Cannot Set Actual Text

    InDesign has no way of setting actual text. This can only be done in PDF. Actual text is set when acronyms are used. Access technologies such as screen readers cannot properly read acronyms such as USA. They voice them as words, like "Youusah." Actual text has to be set for the document to be read correctly. This is a painstaking process that requires InDesign users to learn PDF Remediation, a highly specialized skillset that is typically outside the role of the average Graphic Designer. Currently, the process for setting actual text in Acrobat is as follows: Find the acronym in the Tags tree. Open the Accessibility tool and choose Reading Order. Drag a marquee over the acronym and tag it as what it is – paragraph/text or a heading level. The Tags tree will collapse. Open the Tags tree again to find the new acronym Tag. Right click on the new acronym Tag and choose “Properties”. Type the acronym with spaces between each letter in the Actual Text field, for example “U S A.” Spaces will cause the acronym to be read correctly. This issue affects EVERY SINGLE InDesign user who is required to make accessible content. Please make setting actual text an option within InDesign so painstaking remediation is not required.
