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?

Too Much Pain and Harm: InDesign Find Interface Input Boxes with Too Little Font
Too Much Pain and Harm: InDesign Find Interface Input Boxes with Too Little Font
Too Much Pain and Harm: InDesign Find Interface Input Boxes with Too Little Font
If the lookup is simple and short, you may think it doesn't matter.
But the inner word is a little long, want to modify and need to find half a day.Wouldn't it be more comfortable to be able to freely enlarge the font?

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

Preserve Preview Checkbox Settings
After upgrades or patches, it would be nice to have the Preview switches in so many various dialog boxes preserved in the ON position.

Customise the context bar
The context bar contains functions that I can access much more quickly via a shortcut, so I don't find it useful.
It would be useful if the context bar functions could be customised.2 votes -

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.

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!…

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.

Find/Replace Dialog box functionality was changed in 20.3 tabbing from Find now goes to the Special Character button
in InDesign 20.3 there was a change to the find/replace dialog box. When I tab out of the "Find what:" field it goes into "Specials characters for search" button instead of the way it used to work where it would tab into "Change to:" field.
I work on large books with data that I cannot control how it comes in and it is not connected. These books have three versions so there are three layers to work on. I need to make the same changes to all three layers. I have a rhythm, and I tend to work fast. At…

Make it possible to anchor a graphic to the beginning of a paragraph without five or six tries and two or three zooms
It'll go AFTER the first letter…it'll go some random place in the first FEW letters, but before the first one? Especially if the first one is a sans-serif letter "I"? HAHAHAHAHAH! No. Not without cajoling, retrying, zooming, threatening, and telling it what a good little cursor it is.
I realize this isn't a **** problem, but it's been literally decades of this feature being…what's the technical term…bad.

Make Paste Remembers Layers the Default
Make 'Paste Remembers Layers' the default. By default this is an option that must be selected, but this should be the default behavior. You will note the number of suggestions on this very forum for this feature that already exists. There is never going to be an occasion under which I do not want to paste to the original layer, and I often want to copy and paste multiple objects on different layers. However, this feature is well hidden in the layers panel menu options, disabled by default. Moreover 'Paste in Place' should likewise be the default. When would it…

Hide Application Home Bar

Easier Workspace Profile Overwriting
When updating a custom workspace (via Window > Workspace), it would be helpful to have a direct option to overwrite an existing saved workspace—rather than requiring users to select “New Workspace…” and retype the same name manually to replace it.

Direct Select Tool select control points regardless of active object
The direct selection tool should behave like a direct selection tool regardless of whether the object is currently selected. Currently, InDesign will treat the direct selection tool like the regular selection tool if an object is currently selected. This is broken UI. This is counterintuitive. The 'direct' selection tool should select control points regardless of whether the object is already selected. It should just grab control points or lines directly as indicated in the name of the tool. There are about a decade's worth of community posts about this issue, so maybe Adobe should fix it, now? What do you…

Save state of checkbox "Preview" in dialogs, which since ages does resets after every maj/min-update – in contrast to the Preferences 😭
A crazy idea, to not have the user do settings AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN!
You cant tell me, there is noone angry with this behaviour. Or everybody has resignated after years, and has accepted this extremly bad UX, which you cant be proud of.

Displaying docs side by side; use the whole screen
I have two docs to either compare or take details from etc, I need them side by side, so I use the Window > Arrange option and have them in whatever config I need. They then resize to ⅔ the screen size next to each other. Then grabbing a corner to resize the window makes them jump all over the place. It works perfectly fine when I split a window (Window > Arrange > Split Window), it keeps the doc full size of the screen, so why not when tiling?
