Remove or Disable Share Button
I need to have the option to Disable or Remove the Share Button. It is constantly running in the background and slows down InDesign significantly. I work in an office where I will never share a document in InDesign and I'm sure there are a lot of people who are in the same situation.
This has slowed down my work and the other managers are not happy. We are looking at switching to Affinity.

Streaming/Downloading Files from Cloud providors should be a non-blocking background event
I imagine both MacOS and Windows provide some information about whether files are available locally or remotely. In either case, it would be beneficial for performance if InDesign did not block the interface while it was trying to open files that are not returned within a specific frame window (under 100ms seems reasonable).
When a delay is encountered, draw the proxy or frame shape (if no proxy is available) and overlay a cloud or disk icon and some indication of loading progress. This would go a long way to directly communicate that InDesign has not crashed or otherwise failed in…

Added PDF export tag to character styles for accessibility
In InDesign, it would be helpful to have the option to export our style as an Artifact in the Character Styles tab, under "Markup Export". This would be very useful for accessibility, allowing for the automation of things like formatting bullets as Artifacts.

hyperlink
Currently if we embed URL link- hyperlink highlighting the word within a hidden text box, the link does not work. We have to create a multi-step setup using the Object States panel so the box appears before the link can be clicked. We have to create the text box for the hyperlink, having to match the line and indentation is a painful process when you decide to edit the main text box. There are few other steps to enabling this hyperlink box work, creating a trigger button etc. This seems quite inefficient and was hoping Adobe could enable users to…

Allow users to move the colours and colour groups up and down the list under the drop-down menu at the top of the page
Hi there,
Please could anyone tell me if there is a way to (or why we cannot) reorder the colours in the drop-down colour palette…?
I have created several colour groups and swatches (lower down the list than shown in the image below), but there doesn’t seem any easy way to simply reorder it so the colours and groups I use most are on the top… It would be so much easier if I could just move my favourite / regular colours by clicking on the line and moving it up or down the list. This would seem an easy…

Avoid repeated line beginnings and endings in Paragraph Composer
Avoid repeated line beginnings and endings in Paragraph Composer
In professional book typesetting, repeated beginnings or endings on consecutive lines can create distracting visual patterns. For example, several consecutive lines may begin with the same short word (“de”, “the”, “of”, etc.) or end with the same letters, syllables, words, or word endings.
There are third-party tools that can detect some of these repetitions after the text has already been composed, but correcting them manually is extremely time-consuming. Fixing one occurrence may also recompose the paragraph and create another repetition a few lines later.
InDesign already evaluates alternative line breaks, hyphenation…

Redesign UserVoice forum
In this sad, poorly designed forum, if you click an attached image, then click back to the forum, the idea you viewed disappears and a different idea is presented.
When you attempt to post an idea, your email appears as the idea title.
Which makes it unclear where to place the title and where the content of the post. In the end, your feedback is posted with your email as the title, and thus has to be deleted and reposted.
Please redesign it.

Change the format from JPEG to PNG after using Remove background directly in Adobe InDesign, so the final PNGs are usable without background
Change the format from JPEG to PNG after using Remove background directly in Adobe InDesign, so the final PNGs are usable without backgrounds. There is no use of removing backgrounds of JPEGs in big files when you cannot use them without the backgrounds. When one is working on a big catalogue filled with 1500 jpegs, one cannot change them into PNGs in InDesign. This feature would help a lot of graphic designers, I am sure of it. The solution would be simple for you – add menu for picking the format before applying of removing the background.

見開きドキュメントのノド側に塗りたしを追加したい
PUR製本など見開きの良い製本を行う場合、ミーリングとしてノド側にも塗りたしを作成する必要があります。そうしないと見開きで絵柄が繋がっている場合は良いのですが、センターで絵柄が切り替わる場合に、印刷用に面付を行った時に、ミーリング部分に対抗ページのノド部分が出てきてしまい段差になってしまいます。現状そのままでは塗りたしを追加することが出来ないので、ドキュメントページの移動を許可のチェックを外し、ページパレットで見開きページを片方ずつ交互にずらしたのち、それぞれのページに塗りたしを追加しています。ただこれを行うと見開きとしてのレイアウトプレビューが出来ない、スプレッドでPDF書き出しが出来ないなどの不都合が起こります。なので必要に応じてノドのミーリング部分のアキをオンオフ出来るような機能があるととてもありがたいです。

Pie charts and other charts
Why are tables the limit for charts in indesign?
I know we can make them in illustrator and copy them over/import them, but come on, this program should have this basic feature already.
This is getting ridiculous, Indesign has been out since 1999 and that isn't counting the pagemaker predecessor from 1985....
And y'all are focusing on ai slop instead. Please add more advance charts; etc. Get it together.

New Window directly from Page/Spread
I'd like to have the option to create a new window/tab/view into a file from a specific page/spread. I keep my Pages panel open, so I'd want to be able to right click a page and open a new window (that I can place on another screen as a reference).
My workaround would be to export as a PDF and open the relevant page in Acrobat on my second screen, or manually create a new window and then navigate to the relevant page.
Being able to do this in a single step saves a small amount of time, but convenience…

[ID-4274018] Locate Object and Search Filter for Layers Panel
It would be really useful to have a Locate Object (magnifier glass) at the bottom of the Layes Panel (like we find in Illustrator).
A search filter could also be handy when trying to locate object by there name or kind.6 votesAvailable in Prerelease Builds ·

pdf intelligenti
Attualmente, chi esporta un PDF deve decidere tutto prima: pagine singole o affiancate, con o senza crocini, ecc. Il problema è che spesso chi riceve il file non specifica cosa vuole, e se sbagliamo l'esportazione non va bene.
Non sarebbe fantastico se InDesign potesse generare un PDF in cui è chi riceve il file a scegliere come vederlo? Ad esempio, con dei semplici tasti per attivare o disattivare i crocini di taglio o per passare dalle pagine singole alle affiancate.
Sarebbe una svolta: noi designer invieremmo un solo file "completo" e il destinatario potrebbe adattarlo alle sue esigenze con un…

Please create the SHARE FOR REVIEW link updateable as a standalone and not linked to just one indesign file.
Here is what’s happening in my workflow.
I create an indesign file (file_260729.ind) and share a link to clients for checking.
Once the client adds their comments, i revise the indesign file and save it as (file_260730.ind) now I NEED to create a new share for review link for clients which makes it confusing for clients to follow especially if you're dealing with a number of clients, each commenting at their own pace.
I have tried creating just one indesign MASTER file for client to check and just create an indesign copy for myself as archive BUT once i try…

Paragraph Rules/Underline Skip Ink
Can Paragraph Rules/Underlines be updated to have a 'skip ink' feature, similar to how figma works.
For example, if I wanted to add a rule/underline below the word "example", I could choose for the line to go through the letter p or to skip any descenders adding in a gap to the line.

Text variables with autosize frame
Please add a feature to InDesign so that text frames with auto-size enabled will function properly when text variables are inserted into them. This would eliminate the need to convert the displayed text variable to regular text, while still allowing the frame to auto-size normally.

Ignore hidden pages when creating Share for Review link
I occasionally keep different versions of a given page hidden in my document in case I need them later. However, when creating a Share for Review link, I have to make sure I delete the hidden pages each time otherwise they will export in the Share for Review preview and confuse my reviewer.
Can you please add functionality into Share for Review so it will not export any pages that are hidden when creating a share link?
