1. Stop Giving a Fill Color When Using the Line Tool.

   My OCD makes me switch the fill color (when using the line tool) to No Color. It would be great if there was no fill color when using the line tool.

2. Improve the tabs window interface

   No matter what size your text is or how much Iyou zoom in, when you open the tabs window to set or modify tabs, the window is WAY too small, and the little arrows to adjust the tabs WAY too fussy. It's almost impossible to grab the existing tab to move it over or even select it, and you end up creating 4 or 5 new tabs because you're clicking on the ruler trying to select an existing tab. I wait for this to improve with every update. Going in to my 25th year as a graphic designer, and I just don't think it should be this hard to create tabs.

3. How to package a single page.

   It's really inconvenient that I can't package a single page. I have to duplicate and delete the rest of page before I sent others.

4. REMOVING "FOLDER" WHEN PACKAGING

   I'd like to be able to package a document without having "_folder" at the end of the file name. Each time I have to go back and manually remove the name "folder". I'm sure a lot of us see this behavior as annoying.

5. Paragraph Borders: Inset vs Offset or "Keep Within Frame"

   LOVE that borders and shading are now built into paragraph styles; but, I would like to be able to create a paragraph border with an inset (instead of an offset), or something like the "keep in frame" option for paragraph rules. The result is a paragraph outline in line with the other paragraphs above and below it, but with an inset paragraph inside the border.

6. Paste in Place is the default Paste option

   I think that it would be more useful if the default option for the paste command were Paste in Place. It is frustrating to me that when copy pasting objects, particularly from one page to the other, I have to go through an extra step to "paste special" when there is nothing special about it... Same thing with photoshop...

7. Section Styles

   Often we need to apply styling, such as a shaded background, to not just an individual paragraph, but to a SECTION which is composed of multiple paragraphs.

   There is no easy way to do this via style sheets. Duplicating all the individual paragraph styles again and adding the 'shaded' properties to each one is way too tedious and fussy.

   It would be nice if we could have SECTION STYLES. This would function like a 'wrapper' encompassing multiple paragraphs. That way we could select a passage of text and easily apply things like shading, borders, and indents to it. See attached example.

8. Remove the maximum cell height in tables

   I often use tables in more technical posters as a frame for graphics with caption.
   I experienced that a cell height of about 220 mm is the maximum for tables.
   If you have larger graphics this is not enough.

9. Please implement an option/script for the user to make the choice to turn backgroundprinting on or off..

   A button or checkbox to turn of the backgroundtask would be useful (like the famous script: "controlBackgroundExport.jsx" by Marijan Tomba.

   There are certain export/printjobs I want to see/follow in a processbar, even if that means that I am not able to work for that time.

10. Add a "View" option "a spread as single pages"

    My idea is to create an option in the VIEW panel, to see your spread as single pages, where they are broken apart and still on the left or right, but separated... Here's why...

    Amazon is becoming one of the largest online stores around. Their "create space" content uploader is requiring an interior bleed on your books. So if anyone wants to create a facing page spread in indesign, they will need to separate the pages into single pages so that they can work on making sure the graphics cover the bleed area as well as export properly since both pages will be over the center... and if they are exported that way even if they are exported into single pages, the graphic on the front layer wins and gets on both pages, since there's a bleed on both pages.

    To do what I need to do now.. I have to click on every spread... then turn off the ability of the spread to shuffle, then separate each right page of the spread out individually. My book is only 24 pages, so that's 12 times.. but this could be soooo much easier if there was just a "view spread as single pages" option.

    Thank you.
    Candice.

    Need More Info  ·  Anonymous responded

    Thanks for making this request. In order to understand the use-case more better I have a few questions:

    1. Whats the role of the different people working collaboratively on the same file. Are they always only designers or are other personas also involved.
    2. What are the different kind of files (brochures, books, magazines etc) for which this is required.
    3. Where is the file on which these different users need to work together on be placed. Should this be on a cloud server, or a shared server.
    4. How do you workaround this need today? What are the most important problems with the current workaround?

12. the anchor needs to work on the same line.

    the anchor marker needs to work on the same line.

    the anchor marker does not wrap on the same line.

13. Publish Online Dashboard access via Adobe Account

    It would be nice if you could access the Publish Online Dashboard via your Adobe Account online. Currently, you have to open InDesign and then navigate to the dashboard that way, but if you are already in an internet browser and logged into your Adobe Account, there should be a way to get to the dashboard.

15. Add "Preview" button when creating a new color swatch

    When you have and object selected and a fill or stroke color is applied to it...and you want to create a new swatch using a different color...a "Preview" box in the New Swatch dialog box would be helpful so you can see how it would look before accepting it. Currently, ID will apply your new swatch to your selected object(s) after it's created, so allowing adjustments at the same time could cut down on an extra step should you need to tweak the color.

16. Improve handling of font files by consolidating and normalising fonts internally

    Font handling for multiple font file types is broken: if a given typeface represents weights using font files of different types, then different parts of InDesign will handle the font differently. Nowhere will it appear as one family with all weights below it. Because the presentation of the problem is significantly different between InDesign subsystems (paragraph style setting and setting font from the tool bar, for example) this might indicate refactoring is in order to ensure all subsystems handle fonts the same way.

17. Custom spaces between paragraphs 2.0

    To get much more than »only« custom spaces - an extented idea:

    I think to make it nearly perfect, we need to implement another Group inside the ParagraphStyles - say »Exceptions« and built like the nested styles area, for example:

    No intend ------- after ParagraphStyle --- Head
    No intend ------- after ParagraphStyle --- Subline
    (etc.)
    .
    (for List 1)
    Space before --- after ParagraphStyle --- List 1 --- 2mm
    Space before --- after ParagraphStyle --- List 2 --- 2mm
    .
    (and for List 2 etc.)
    Space before --- after ParagraphStyle --- List 1 --- 1mm

    With something like this we would be able to set many »exceptions« inside by using only one named ParagraphStyle ...

    This would solve the problem of "on" or "off" in one go. No rule = off.

    Regards
    Joerg

18. Remove the menu bar from Publish Online when in full screen mode and make sure any remote clicker device can be used to present.

    Several users in our practice would like to present animated InDesign presentations using Publish Online.
    However nobody likes the menu bar appearing across the bottom of the screen, it's very distracting for anyone presenting onscreen.
    Also, most people presenting onscreen would use a remote clicker to move through the slides, as you would in a PowerPoint presentation. However the remote clicker does not work with Publish Online. I would say that I could move our entire practice, with over 1,000 users over to Publish Online from PowerPoint if these two major factors were addressed. It's a shame because they are currently losing interest and reverting back to PowerPoint. This is very disappointing for me as an in-house Adobe trainer. Our users love InDesign and really wanted to get going with the animation and Publish Online, but these two issues are major problems for presenters all over the world.
    
    Please help.

19. Font style and weight should be separate properies

    I think text properties should be more adapted to the CSS structure. This includes applying several styles to a character/paragraph but that topic has already been discussed here https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601021-adobe-indesign-feature-requests/suggestions/31112107-allow-multiple-character-styles-to-be-applied-to-c

    This time, My suggestion is to separate weight (thin, light, regular, medium, bold, black, etc.) from style (italic, oblique, etc.). I know this would be a major change but it's worthy. This would make character styling much easier.

    Maybe width (compressed, condensed, extended, etc.) property should be an option, but this isn't important.
