Arrange pages panel
Being able to drag pages around in the Pages window is fine, but it's incredibly clunky and slow. It's very easy to make mistakes when you can only see 3 minuscule pages at once in the window. Would it be possible to make a new type of window with a grid layout of all your pages, where you can easily select multiple pages and drag pages around?
Also, as others have mentioned, please implement page folders!! That would be so useful.

Drag and drop Parent Pages onto pages or pasteboard
Allow users to drag and drop parent pages onto actual pages (not in the pages panel) or pasteboard.
Dragging master pages onto pages would apply it to the page.
Dragging onto the pasteboard would apply it to the spread.4 votes -
Business
Hi there, a friend recommended Swiss trust when I mentioned I needed better asset protection. Curious, I visited their site and read about how they focus on privacy and safeguarding assets. What really caught my eye was their straightforward process and the emphasis on security. I decided to try their service myself to protect some personal investments, and it felt reassuring to work with a company that clearly knows what they’re doing. The experience was smooth, and I appreciated how they kept everything confidential.

AI tool/agent for typographic/text related questioning of InDesign document
I’m handling long documents (books, magazines) on a daily basis and would love to see an AI tool/agent inside InDesign, which I can ask various typographic questions via prompting, such as:
* List all page numbers which contain orphans/widows.
* List all page numbers which contain less then 15 lines of text in the main text frame/story.
* List all page numbers where paragraphs end with a single word in the last line.
* etc.Since these things can only be done by visually checking every single page or with partially complex scripting, such an AI agent would help to…

Remove tips, Add an option to turn on/off tutorial mode
Remove tips, Add an option to turn on/off tutorial mode.
InDesign and other adobe apps constantly tell me things that I know about. This is helpful for new users, but annoying for professionals. InDesign is the industry standard and should cater to professionals while having a beginner or tutorial mode for those who are new to it.
It is unacceptable to open a window and show it to me while im working. Multiple times i've pressed ctrl z which brings up a window that says DID YOU KNOW ABOUT DOCUMENT HISTORY. Its not helpful for me personally.

Conditional Text to Control Master Page Application
Enable the use of Conditional Text to trigger automatic switching or application of specific Master Pages. In complex layouts, this would streamline the process of dynamically changing page templates based on content variations or project stages.

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!…

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…

Merge paragraph styles to be able to use the functions of two styles at the same time
create a way that the attributes of one paragraph style can be applied to another paragraph style, so that a style that has certain attributes can be used in conjunction with other styles, thus avoiding the creation of multiple 'equal' paragraph styles just because at a certain point in the publication it has to have some difference.

Apply effects to layers. Please.
I would like the ability to apply effects to layers. For instance, I would like “Layer A” to multiply over “Layer B”. What I don't want is all the elements on “Layer A” that are pink and green in the attached reference image to multiply over one another.

Ability to Name Multiple Check Boxes at Once and Deselect Radio Buttons
I use check boxes frequently to create a multitude of order forms. There are a few requirements they need to meet: Once ticked, they can be unticked, and buttons are grouped so only one option can be selected out of a range. This has become a tedious task as I can only name one check box at a time. I would like the ability to select and name multiple check boxes at once so thye can be easily grouped, this simple change would save so much time.
I also used to use the radio buttons, which does have the option…2 votes -
Why is there no copy filename only option when you right click on an image in the link window?
Never figured it out, was it forgotten or did Adobe feel it wasn't needed?
It's necessary when links are missing and you need to find images.2 votes -
Assignment scripting and linking
Currently there is no way to script the link of stories to assignments, I've been trying to script this but it's not possible. this would speed up my workflow as well as the workflow of my coworkers considerably to be able to do this. Also I think this is along the same line, there is no way to change assignment location via script. this doesn't come up often but its frustrating that it cannot be scripted.

InDesign Review Panel should NOT switch the filter to 'Resolved' when editing text with older resolved comments
I am often working on documents with multiple review sessions. The problem that occurs since the latest updates of InDesign is that as soon as I put the cursor in a piece of text which previously had a comment attached to it which is resolved, all resolved comments pop up in the comments panel and I cannot see the current comments: all comments are immediately filtered to 'resolved'. Of course I can switch off the filter for resolved comments again, but it switches back again to 'resolved comments' as soon as I start working on the text. This is driving…

Please stop Find/Change Font defaulting to Minion
Please please please stop defaulting to Minion in Find/change fonts. I know this has been suggested, but this is a constant annoyance! Can someone at least make this intuitive and default either to the main font of the document or the font family that needs to be changed. This could be an option within the tool.
For instance, if the offending font is, say, Adobe Caslon [nothing], it stands to reason that the user might want it to change to a valid Adobe Caslon. Not that this is certain, but it's likely. So if the suggested font is in the…

Toevoegen verloop opties in Alinea-arcering
Alineastijlen > Alinea-arcering > Arcering > Kleur. Daar is het wel mogelijk een gemaakt kleurverloop te kiezen, maar niet de rotatie in te stellen. Het gaat nu alleen van links naar rechts. Ik zou het graag willen draaien.

Give a Direction: Forward/Backward option in the Find/Change panel for Color
The Text option for Find/Change has the option to cycle through the results in the opposite direction. This would be VERY helpful to have on the colour option as well, I have no idea why it would be available for text but not colour, it's the same function?
