Change Asset Characteristics (Color, Style, Color Space) in Adobe Libraries
The Problem:
When building out an icon system in Adobe Libraries, you need to save a separate icon for each color variation, style variation (we have a filled style, line style, and multi-color style), and color space (digital vs. print). For our organization, there are 3 styles, 3 color variations for each, and 2 color spaces, meaning you need 18 different versions of a single icon. For large icon libraries, this results in a massive library and poor performance (icons with too many assets start to slow down and cause crashes).My Idea for a Solution:

Export PDF, IDML and jpeg at the same time
It would be great if user could export document as PDF, jpeg and IDML at the same time. Something similar to package menu, but jus export menu, where user can choose several export formats

Inclure une fonction de nouvel article à un style de paragraphe.
J'aimerais que la fonction de Nouvel article puisse se donner à un Style de paragraphe, ainsi on évite de créer un nouvel article à la main en début de chapitre quand on fait un livre. Cela nous faciliterait la tâche lorsqu'un manuscrit inséré en un article complet comporte plusieurs chapitre et que les notes de fins doivent débuter à un à chaque article. Présentement il faut couper l'article manuellement à la fin de chaque chapitre. Il me semble qu'il pourrait y avoir une case à cocher avec notre Style de paragraphe de Titre de chapitre qui pourrait faire automatiquement les…

Add a tab feature that automatically sets even spacing between words or blocks of text
When creating forms, I often have a line of text where I need to break the line into individual words or groups of words, similar to placing them in columns, but it's done using tab stops. It would be great to have a tab feature that lets you automatically set the tab distance between each word group so that the spacing between each word group is consistent. Right now it has to be done manually setting multiple tab stops on each line, which is time-consuming.

Global Edit
It would be extremely helpful to have a global edit feature like Illustrator. For example, I created a 2 layer text "graphic" to use as an indicator multiple times across a 12 page document. Once it printed, I realized the opacity was too high so it wasn't legible. Now I have to go and edit each individual instance of the exact same item or edit, and paste/duplicate it all over again. If Global Edit was a feature, I could select the object, select Global Edit, and make changes 1 time applying it to ever other instance automatically.

lace Images Behind Text Without Outlines (Layers like Photoshop)
Description:
In Adobe InDesign, there is currently no option to place images behind text without converting the text to outlines or paths. In Photoshop, this is easily achieved using layer masks and clipping masks. It would be highly beneficial to have a similar feature in InDesign, allowing users to place images directly behind text that can still be edited (font, size, and content) without converting it to outlines.Benefits for Users:
Increased flexibility and efficiency when working with text and images
Ability to maintain the editability of the text (users can continue to adjust font, size, and wording)
More intuitive…2 votes -
Change hypenation-language for all text frames at the same time
I would like to select all text frames on one page and change the (hypenation-)language for all of them at the same time. This would save a lot of time when working with seveal languages in the same document.
I know, that I can add new paragraph styles with the corresponding language setting. But that takes way too much time. In our documents, each language has its own layer.1 vote -
Stop snapping to pixel or give us option to disable
Give us the option to not snap to pixel when the ruler is set to measure in pixels.
Fine to snap to pixels when drawing boxes and lines. But completely useless for text and anything with a curve.

Font Paths
In the Links pallet, I can see the path to a link; EVEN if it's missing I can see where it was linked from. I would like the same thing for Fonts. In Find/Replace fonts I can only see a path to fonts that are found. I would like a path for Missing fonts, so I know--- were the activated through the Cloud? Or from someone's Font folder (and not properly Packaged). If I know, I can either Activate the fonts from Adobe, or retrieve the fonts from their local hiding place. It would remove the risk of activating an…

Parametric style.
Parametric style. What does it mean? In the description of the style, we have an additional field "Depends on", in which we indicate the Name of the selected Template. Now the same style will get different settings on different pages. For example, the alignment of the text in the block on the left pages will be on the left edge, and on the right - on the right.
If the brochure has different sections, the same style of headings and subheadings can have different colors. Example: the "cheese" section has yellow headings, and the "cherry" section has red headings. And…2 votes -
Make it possible to (gradually) lock pages in the pages panel
That is a nice way to disinguish pages that are finished and pages that need work. An, off course, to prevent pages from changing.
I understand there are some challenges, like multipage stories and master items, but maybe the lock function should take that into account, a dialog that gives the user the choice: 'The pages you are going to lock contain parts of stories that are connected to unlocked pages. Do you want InDesign to split those stories? Or do you want a 'soft lock' that locks all positions, but allows text to reflow?'
And then: a fully locked…

Span Columns -- please allow to control width of individual columns
I posted this same note under a topic called "Uneven columns," thinking it was to do with Span Columns. I realized later that it was referring to text frame columns. I am reposting here; please excuse the redundancy.
I run into this over and over and over again when typesetting business text books. Sometimes bullet items are long and sometimes short. The way columns work now, I'm forced to have some of the longer bullet text break to two lines even though, if i could adjust the column widths and have better control over the gutter, there would be ample…
