  2. Allow the continuity of footnotes according to pages and not blocks OR chaining anchored text blocks ?!

    I use anchored boxes which (unfortunately) contain notes.
    The numbering of the notes resumes as if it were the start of another document, that is to say at 1.
    I would like it to be possible for these note numbers to follow the previous ones and for the following ones to take them into account:
    note 1 in the text – anchored box with note which should be 2 (and not 1) – note which should be 3 in the text (but which will be 2…). Aaaargh…
    Perhaps a numbering option like in the paragraph styles/Bullets and numbering options where…

  4. InDesign Cannot Artifact Leader Dots (Accessibility)

    InDesign has no way of artifacting leader dots. This can only be done in PDF. Leader dots are commonly used in tables of contents to guide the reader's eye from the end of the entry to the page number. Leader dots are voiced by access technologies such as screen readers and force users with disabilities to hear, "DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT ..." If they are not artifacted. This is a painstaking process that requires InDesign users to learn PDF Remediation,…

  6. Make it possible to create GROUPS in the Pages palette and the Layers palette.

    Make it possible to create GROUPS in the Pages palette and the Layers palette. Just like I can do in the Swatches palette or Styles palette.
    When there are many pages (or layers) in a document, grouping them will be very handy.

  8. An option to turn off auto-numbering of interactive buttons

    An option to turn off the auto-numbering of interactive buttons when they are the same name.

    We sometimes create multiple views of an interactive piece and for analytics need the buttons to have the same name. If there are a lot of buttons sometimes it can take quite a while to got through each button and remove the number added to each one.

  9. Duplicate Spread n times

    In some occasions, I use InDesign to collect Photoshop or Illustrator artwork.
    In that case, I create a page with a Rectangle Frame, Auto-Fit checked.
    When I need e.g. 20 of these, I have to duplicate many times 1-2-4-8-16 etc.
    Why not add a number to the duplicate function?

  10. Share for Review Strikethrough Comments Become Unmapped when Text is Deleted

    My editor often uses the Strikethrough text tool in Share for Review. When I delete the specified text, the corresponding Strikethrough comment becomes unmapped. This is a problem in large documents because it is difficult to remember what part of the document the now unmapped comment referred to. My editor needs to be able to confirm that her requested edits were resolved.

  11. Copy Info: File Name

    Would love to see an option added in the 'Copy Info' dropdown in the links panel for copying only the filename.

    Super handy for searching old drives for images in large catalogues or for relinking etc.

  12. Template Automation from CSV File

    Dear InDesign Support Team,

    I hope this message finds you well.

    I am writing to inquire about a feature that I believe would greatly enhance the efficiency of template usage within InDesign.

    Currently, I often work with templates that contain a simple layout consisting of a picture (a person's image) and text (the person's name) underneath it.
    These templates serve as the basis for creating multiple pages, each with unique content.

    What I would like to request is the capability to automate the population of these templates using data from a CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file.
    Specifically, I envision a feature…

  14. Measuring feature

    It would be great if there were a way to measure the distance between 2 objects. If I could select the first hold down option and hover over another object it would be fantastic to see a popup telling me how many px it is apart

  15. Flipped Images in Pre-Flight

    I'd like to add "flipped image" to the pre-flight process.

    I've recently had to scour a product catalog for flipped images because a junior designer didn't realize that flipping images mis-represented the non-symmetrical producs. It should be something that pre-flight draws attention to as a potential error, similar to non-proportional scaling.
    I was able to install an obscure script that looked for both flipped frames and flipped image content and made a list for you - it was a lifesaver!

  16. do not overwrite Object Styles when making a group to make it accessible

    When applying different object styles to elements in InDesign, they are "deleted" when I make a group and giving the "group" another object-style (for example: a picture and a text, both have separate object styles - i group them, and then want to give the group an object style that puts it in the right position on my page)
    As soon as I apply the Object style, to the group, the individual object styles are "overwritten". I can manually reapply them in the group, but thats not efficient.
    Especialle to make an accessible PDF, the feature of different Object styles…

  17. Paragraph styles frustrations

    When creating a paragraph style from an existing one, please let InDesign automatically select the new one to edit, or at least let it retain the adjustments we made to the existing one. Because many times I edit the styling of text, then make a new paragraph style, only to find out I was still styling on the previous style, and not "New Paragraph 1."

    OR

    Let us be able to highlight the paragraph style we want to redefine, without applying the style to the text.

    Sometimes all we want is to highlight copy in the document, and right-click on…

  18. Publishonline Ideas votes must be separated from Indesign ideas.

    Indesign users and issues are far away more than publishonline. I think it's fair to separate them so publishonline users have more efficiency. Publishonline will have a great future if we could invest on it. Although it is improoving very slow. Lets speedit up.

  19. Spread numbering confuses clients

    When publishing spreads, numbering is for spreads spread 1, 2 ,3 etc but paging in document is different. This confuses clients and spreads should be numbered as pages page 1, page 2-3, page 4-5 etc.
