Tabelle, Teabellenformate, Tabellenzellen
Die Funktionen Tabelle, Tabellenformate und Tabellenzellen sollten in der Gesamtheit überarbeitet werden. Wir arbeiten viel mit Tabellen, die lang und kompliziert sind.
Es entstehen immer wieder viele unvorhersehbare Effekte.
Tabellenoptionen funktionieren nicht zuverlässig, z. B. Spaltenlinien in der Vordergrund.
Linien kommen und gehen in Farben die wir nicht zugewiesen haben, wenn Zeilen oder Spalten eingefügt werden.
Zellenformate sind für uns leider nicht nutzbar.
Wünschenwert ist auch die Eingabe von Formeln, z. B. die Formel schreiben oder auch Berechnungen durchführen lassen.
Die Kleinansicht der Rahmen und Linien springt bei Markierungen von anderen Tabellen um, was ziemlich lästig ist.

add effects to paragraph shading/frame
This CC 2018 Update is fantastic!
The only thing I am missing is the lack of possibility to add effects like shadows, on paragraph shadings and frames.
This would be extremely helpful for a heavy-graphical CI, where text - spanning over more than one column or frame - must be underlaid with shadowed frames. Actually, when page breaks are to be corrected, I have to adjust those background frames manually, which is quite time-consuming.

many users working on the same file simultaneously.
2 users - one is working on pages 1 to 20, other one is working from 21 to the end - but file is the same.

When will you bring back Mini Bridge?
We are all missing Mini Bridge, it was such a useful tool, we don't know why it was removed. Do the engineers not ask for feedback from graphic production teams about these tools before removing them?

Allow Linking of Conditional Text and Object Layers
Why not allow linking of conditional text conditions to an objects layers or layer comps. This could be done through the object layer options dialog, where you could have the ability to connect existing conditions to an object, by having a tick box to enable the functionality for that specific object. You could then when it is ticked link the conditions to specific object layers or comps in the object layers dialog box.
I appreciate the name conditional text clearly implies it's text, but it would save time in some cases to have image layers hide and show automatically when…

Spellcheck only "real" copy.
Add an option in "Check Spelling" to tell it to "ignore automatically generated placeholder text". So that Spellcheck would flag only real copy. I often use both in my documents and it's hard to check a 40-pg document when it keeps stopping at several paragraphs of placeholder text.

publish online full screen support on iPads
Hi,
i am using the great "Publish Online" feature on several documents.
My docs are ok everywhere...Except full screen browsing :
• working perfectly on desktop browsers, when clicked on the icon in the inferior bar.
• working perfectly on iPhone (recent os) when switched in landscape mode.• not working on iPad (recent os, iPad 2, iPad Air and iPad Pro), none of the gesture will work, and none of the browsers neither…
I've tried Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Opera.Impossible to obtain a full screen viewing, which is really required for a presentation. The upper bar will remain…

Background tasks and glyphs panel width matching other panels

These panels are too wide and so cannot be included in my sidebar

Add a way in a book file to change the conditional text "Set" of all documents within the book at a global level.
Please add a way in a book file to change the conditional text "Set" of all documents within the book at a global level.
This way I can print "Product A" without having to open every document within the book and changing the "Set" to product A. Like wise for "Product B," etc.
An alternative would be to add it o the publish/print/export presets.

Countdown page numbering
I needed to start a book with the highest number to the lower, but it's not possible to start a page from 200 until 1 instead of 1 to 200.
Could a nice function also for double language book with right reading languages and left reading languages.3 votes -
Media Controller Preview
Something that shows the user what the controllers they are selecting for a video looks like. I change the options and try the Interactivity preview but nothing changes. Reading a description on the help page of what the items in the list mean isn't helping either. A better naming system and a visual preview would be way better here.

improving master page functionality
It would be super helpful if i could create a master page with regions of text and then apply that to pages. Then, those regions could be edited in the page with the correct information, but if i needed to edit the placement of the stuff, i could change it in the master and it would sync to the page.

Reopen color theme floating palettes
I have a workbook/training document that has sections, and each section uses a different color scheme. I used the Color Theme tool to create the different color themes for the various sections. But with each new theme, I lost the preceding floating palette. It would be so helpful to be able to reopen a color theme floating palette that is based on a theme you saved in the Swatches panel. It would be more convenient to drag the floating palette around the screen (near to the objects where you want to apply fill or stroke) than to have to undock,…

Support for .oam files in interactive pdf‘s
Wouldn’t it be great if you could publish an interactive Pdf and have the ability to see some basic animation to help tell your desired story? I’m not talking about an ePub here, or an outdated flash file. I’m suggesting that a widely accepted format across multiple platforms, the Pdf, should have the capability to play an lightweight animation / .oam / .gif rather than only be able to have a huge .mp4, with massive compression!
Surely by now we could have some nice .svg animation. Is html5 able to be implemented into in design? There must be a relatively…

Option to open file path after PDF export
Could the PDF export dialog box have an option alonside 'View PDF after exporting' for something like, 'View file in finder after export', so that I can really quickly send the file in an email.
Or even 'Send file after export' so that I can super quickly flick the file off to our account managers?

Improve override & "mixed overrides" notice on paragraph styles: give useful info
If a paragraph has some override(s) in it that do not affect the entire paragraph, you'll see the little paragraph symbol at the bottom of the panel light up. This tells you there's an override. No + sign will appear next to the paragraph style name, though, unless the cursor happens to be in text that has the override. For example, if one word is in italics but your cursor is elsewhere in the paragraph, you don't have any way to know what the override is. If you select the entire paragraph, the + appears, but when you hover over…

Symbol for automatic hyphen in Find/Change
It would be great, if we could search for words, that are hyphenated automatically at a specific position (I do not mean discretionary hyphens, but those, created automatically from InDesign’s hyphenation module). Therefore a special search character would be useful.

Clear the pasteboard
I'd love a command that would delete all the extraneous stuff that ends up on the pasteboard. It would be especially helpful in packaging for print.
