  1. Persistent Tutorial Pop-ups in InDesign

    Dear Technical Support,

    I am experiencing persistent issues with Adobe InDesign, where tutorial pop-ups and annotations for new features continue to appear, even after repeatedly clicking the "Skip" button. This behavior is highly irritating and disrupts my workflow. Could you please advise on how to disable these pop-ups?

  2. UI for tool panels to have 'fixed' sizes

    Please add an option (as it may not be for everyone) to fix the size of the height of the tool panels, regardless of what tab is selected. It drives me mad that it jumps around so much, when selecting a different tab, and that resizes the entire column. Please can it just remain fixed, so all the tabs are where I left them, regardless of what's selected? The screenshots aren't even the worst that I've had, it's just two seconds of flicking through different tabs and seeing how they're all affected

  4. Stop turning all your products into Canva

    The pop ups and changes to the UI are unnecessary and disruptive to decades of established workflow. Stop treating your established customer base like they're idiots and not design professionals. If wanted to use Canva I would.

  5. Please remove the text (GPU Preview) in the name tabs.

    They take up needed space if you have several files open. I know I can turn it off if I turn off GPU but would rather not.

  7. A preset to limit your FONT view to preferred language, such as the one chosen by OS/region.

    I have to use Noto Sans; Its required by my work at my University.

    Is there a way to limit your font view to preferred language chosen by OS/region. My font menu is a mess of languages and it's hard to navigate to choose just "Noto Sans." Try it... really.. Try and Type "Noto Sans"... I never get the one I type it's always one of the other languages versions.

    • So when a user choose their working language, InDesign offer them the right set of font.

    Font lists are wayyyy tooooooo long to contain all the wolds languages by default!…

  8. Things on the artboard moves when adding pages

    I work on long documents and sometimes I have notes/objects/revisions for my team about the page to the side in the artboard. But adding pages moves the artboard and it's object away from the page and sometimes I don't notice for a while. I recognize there is a notes feature, but sometimes it's alternate versions of a table or object that need to be reviewed before implementation or are on hold. It would be a really useful toggle option.

  10. Display effective ppi and actual ppi of selected image at the Control panel

    I'd like to see the effective ppi and actual ppi of an image displayed at the Control panel for easy of use. It's a very important information for me as I routinelly place several images on our publications and it's really cumbersome to have to open the Links panel or the Info panel just to check an image resolution while there's plentiful of unused space at the Control panel where this information could sit.

  11. Remove the floating "help with a feature items"

    I wanted to share some feedback regarding a recent usability issue I’ve experienced across several Creative Cloud applications, including Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, and Acrobat.

    In recent updates, each of these programs has introduced tool-specific pop-up panels or hints that appear when a tool is selected. While I understand the intent is to offer helpful tips or highlight features, these pop-ups are consistently disruptive to my workflow. They frequently appear directly over the content I'm working on and are difficult to reposition. Even when I move them off the canvas, they often reset to their original (obstructive) location whenever I switch…

  12. Could we make the Background task icon animation work harder?

    The current icon appears next to the share button on the top bar when we export a PDF, what about including the percentage within the revolving circle? Saves me open the tab to check for bigger docs. Thanks!

  13. Arrange features

    I've been frustrated with the new way dragging a document tab to make it a seperate window forces it into a split screen first, and then I have to grab the tab again and the second time it actually makes it a new window. I'd like to be able to toggle that feature on and off (I'm sure it works for someone's workflow). Additionally, the document window edges often hides under the menu and/or below the edge of my screen. This is frustrating because it makes it hard to scale the window if the right hand corner we're meant to…

  14. Delete unused

    In several menu's 'Select unused [...]' can be found.
    I think everyone uses this to get rid of unused Swatches, Styles etc.

    Why not add 'Delete unused [...] to the menu?

  15. Plug-in API to temporarily disable new feature guided tours

    InDesign 2025 has several new panels (History, Math Expressions, Export to Adobe Express, Insert MathML) which have associated guided “tours” which bring up windows containing animation and/or an explanation of the new feature and how to use it. The menu items for these new panels that have available guided tours are indicated by a blue dot next to the menu item before the guided tour is viewed by the user. After the guided tour has been viewed, the blue dots next to the menu items seem to disappear. These new panels and their associated guided tours sometimes open without the…

  16. Allow data merge placeholders to be used directly in QR Code URL & Text

    Data merge placeholders like <<Sample URL>> do not work when used in QR Codes.

    That would be cleaner and easier to use than the current data merge which requires the syntax described on https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/data-merge.html

    The Edit QR Code dialog should be improved to support these placeholder values.

    Please include this option in Character Style creation window so that it can be easier to apply type of kashida as required by the user.

  18. Enhancements Needed for InDesign's Font and Shortcut Menus

    1. Search Functionality in Keyboard Shortcut Settings

    In Photoshop, the keyboard shortcut settings include a search function that facilitates quick navigation through extensive menus. Implementing a similar feature in InDesign would streamline workflow efficiency.

    1. Improved Font Menu Navigation

    The current font dropdown menu displays a limited number of typefaces, necessitating extensive scrolling. Expanding the dropdown to utilize the full screen height would allow more fonts to be visible simultaneously, reducing the need for excessive scrolling.

    Additionally, when searching for a font, the cursor defaults to the top of the menu, highlighting the last used font. Positioning the cursor directly at the…

  20. Screen bug when using an external monitor with a laptop (Mac thing?)

    When I have a file open, and the laptop sleeps or I close the lid, when I come back, the file is half way down the attached/big screen, instead of where I left it (full screen), it's only a little thing, but it's so annoying!! Please leave the files where I put them on the screen!
