Non printing layer attention value
Since the latest update of Adobe CC I noticed that across the suite, when you double click a layer and set it to non-printing, the label is no longer displayed in italic. Thus remaining in the dark on first glance at layer palette if a layer is set to non printing. I use non-printing feature a lot but now I don't have a visual reference anymore. Don't understand why this feature was removed?

Book files | make list of all files seachable and make groups for better overview
When having a Bookfile with a lot of files in it. It is nearly not possible to find the right files. It would be nice if it would be possible to make any groups and make it searchable to find them easier.

Same shortcuts for all Adobe products (the most important one)

Support for Microsoft SCUP
We have invested very large in SCCM infrastructure to support Global distribution of client applications. To speed up distribution of Adobe product versions we have analyzed Adobe Update Server solution.
Based on our global environment that would require an enormous investment create a Adobe Update Server at every site location.We would like Adobe to add support for Microsoft SCUM, that would speed up product distribution without very large investment.

Layer selection when creating Table of Contents
A book having multiple subdocuments in which 3 different languages are used, that each have their own layer, should have a selection of which layer should be addresses when generating the table of contents for it, so that the ToC can also be made in the different languages, per layer.

Feature to update links of placed InDesign documents
I often place multiple InDesign documents containing links into another one to create an overview of assets for our clients. This way I can jump directly to a specific document and make changes.
But if I directly modify a link of a linked document, I'm not able to update those remote links in my asset overview.3 votes -
Placed images should place based on resolution, not size.
When placing 300 dpi image into 72 ppi environment, it should place as real size (perhaps with warning if much larger than placing environment), and vice versa: when placing 72 ppi image into 300 dpi document, it should be 24% the size.

Please allow cursor colour change option from black to white.
Please allow cursor colour change option as sometimes black is not visible on dark graphics work. This is in particular for the selection too which comes in black only as a dafault

Smart button interfacing
I had an idea which could be applied to all of the applications. Essentially the idea is for a 'smart' button.
Often when I'm diving in and out of the interface I miss clicking on a button, sometimes repeatedly. What if the button had a 'snap to' effect, this could be set with a variable through preferences. It could be set to 1 pixel or 100.
This could be toggled on and off utilising a short cut. So you could activate it for different methodologies. It could also be disabled completely.It would allow for faster and smoother interfacing. However…

Not able to select file option, jumps to "window" or "help"!
When I open a file in InDesign, if I select the "File" drop down menu, it immediately disappears and the "Windows" dropdown menu gets pulled down.
As a result, the FILE dropdown menu is completely USELESS.. Please fix this BUG immediately.

Optional expansion of layout area
Sometimes it would be handy if, instead of a warning message, ID would ask, if you would like to expand the layout area to prevent objects from being out of bound.

Option: make subsection headers not persist beyond their ends.
For text variables for running headers/footers, the default behavior is as described in the help: "If there is no occurrence of the style on the page, the previous occurrence of the applied style is used." Not sure if this is a bug or a feature, but if you are using headers or footers for both sections and subsections, and some sections have subsections and some don't, then you get a header with the name of a subsection many pages back, even though it's not on the page. Having an option to turn off this persistence would make this feature work…

Replace GUI
It could be usefull if developers could completely replace the existing GUI, and replace it with a custom build GUI. The Indesign engine could then also be used for other purposes than graphic design work.

Bug: XML w/Images Export (filename)
Just discovered during XML w/images export that ID is converting images w/spaces in filenames to underscores (causing mismatches, XML itself is correct) — is this a bug? Using ID 13.0.1
Btw - I know this is a feature request post, but I can't find an easy way to submit bugs!
