Add a blank to the font listing in the style menus
When you modify an existing style, there's no way to un-set the existing font except for reverting the whole style to blank. I'd like to be able to modify a style so that it no longer applies the font, without resetting the whole existing style.

Seamless editing between applications.
I want to be able to place a creative asset inside InDesign, then right click and choose "edit in Photoshop" or "edit in Illustrator", and any saved changes would reflect in the original InDesign document.
For example, I inserted an old PDF file into InDesign because it contains a logo which I do not have the vector file anymore then resized the image block to only show the logo and not the rest of the document. Now I want to create a new vector file of the logo in Illustrator, and it would save a lot of time and effort…

Illustrations should be movable anyway
Re: Images Anchored
Huge problem and fault of Indesign is the anchor feature.
The layout of anchored Illustrations can NOT be moved around freely on the page it is anchored on. If you try to move the graphic around ANYWAY on the page or the before it or the next page, the text is OBSCURED OR DESTROYED —the text is underneath the graphic. If you use the "inline" function the result is the same. The ability to move the "anchored" graphic anyway is very LIMITED. The TEXT should re-position itself around the image wherever it is moved.
Lets update the…

Tools handling
Instead of corner nodes which are used to resize the box, provide the easy option to user where ever they want hold the box edges to resize, it could be better to work with ID..

Allow setting of dashed stroke options in Object Styles
It seems unrational that all other stroke options can be set in the styles but not this one.

Share the templates (INDT) into the library
Dear all we already use a lot the library as we are a team of 6 designers working on the same bases. We already use swatches and images which is very convenient. It would be good to have the templates (rollup, A4 , webbanner ...) in the library as template the way we can just drag and drop them
thank you by advance. InDesign is a wonderful tool

interrupt the checking and reading of PSD, TIFF or other large embedded files
It took a good few minutes for my new computer to complete that process, and it would be worse for a older machine. Maybe we can have a option to cancel that process? InDesign froze in my old computer while waiting for these files to complete loading.

Step and Repeat "+" and "-" values entered simultaneously
It would great to have a Step and Repeat option that would allow duplication of an item in positive and negative directions simultaneously. It would be especially helpful in the placement of guides where, if you drew a center point guide, you can step and repeat guides outward from that guide (say 1.5" to the left and right) to allow in visually placed items that aren't centered in the container boxes.

Dictionary presetting synchronization for all open documents
Hey support,
is there a possibility to add a checkbox in InDesign under „Presettings“ to the point Dictionary (especially spelling) which allows the program to use the chosen spell-setting for all documents in a universal way?
Actually I have to check and set this spell-setting for each single document.My proposition:
Under "Preferences" you could put a hook under "Dictionary", which takes over the dictionary for all documents without having to reset it again and again. When you open a new document, it takes over default spelling.Thank you.

New Create New document dialog box variables
I'd like to see the variable labels in the new Create New Document dialog box In InDesign made active so that when you click on them ID selects the current value for you to change; i.e., I'd like to see them work as most all the other entry fields work. This is a real time saver and I'm always telling my students to use this feature, not click inside a field and swipe over/highlight existing value....

Swatch Grouping
The Color Group function is really useful, but it only works in the creation phase if you select multiple colours. There's no obvious way to add a colour to a group after it's been created - there's no contextual menu option, there's no palette menu option, and seemingly, you can't drag and drop it into the folder, which is counterintuitive as this is something users do all the time with Layers. Similarly, color groups should function the same way inside the CC Libraries palette. There should be a shortcut to add any selected Swatch or Color Group to the current…

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.
