Update snippets/version history
It would be good to have an effortless way to update the snippets. I usually work with lot of snippets and sometimes the customer wants minor changes. Now it's easier to create a new snippet instead of updating an old one.
Also, the version history could be useful to track changes.1 vote -
UI – Some Buttons are missing InDesign CC 2020 (OS X)
Hello,
I’ve updated InDesign to the newest version 15.0 (InDesign CC 2020) on OS X.
And some buttons in the top window border are missing like the percent and the GPU rocket.Is it possible to put these back?! Or do I have to change it anywhere in the menu? Can’t find it.

Sascha102 votesThe InDesign team appreciates your valuable feedback and concerns. These go a long way in helping us make InDesign better for you and update it continuously to cater to evolving user needs. The app bar design was changed as part of these improvement efforts, and will also help us in introducing some modern and exciting functionalities which we have been working on.
While doing this, we have taken care not to remove any existing functionalities which were available in the previous App Bar design. These have only been relocated – either grouped along with similar functionalities (based on results from our user research) or shifted to improve usability (to provide a consistent experience) while working across Creative Cloud apps, especially Photoshop (Ps) & Illustrator (Ai), which are frequently used by InDesign users. We do understand that it takes time & effort in adopting these but we sincerely hope that the…

improve pdf comments!
Firstly, kudos on the improved PDF comments. They are much much faster. No comparison. Thank you. It also seems to be working (although not tested much) much better with mixed English and Hebrew.
However, if you look at the attached screenshot, ❶ the comment icon is small and b/w. It would be extremely helpful if this was large and ❷ just like in DC, the comments box wastes tons of space. It would be nice if the text was much larger. This was executed very nicely in Acrobat XI (ruined in DC which nobody can use now). Could you make…

STOP REQUIRING AN ADOBE ID to Review
1st this Review feature is long overdue. other updates and features are also long overdue. Sharing needs to be easier!!! Many clients, producers, freelance artists and brand owners are not Adobe users and they do not adopt things they don't understand right away. we need a way to share and review work that isn't just recruiting for adobe. pay attention to your subscribers needs not more barriers. The subscription model has been the empty shell everyone feared it would be and you all have no motivation to update adequate solutions

link objects, like link layers in photoshop
in photoshop, we can "link" the layers to select and edit linked layers at the same time while maintaining the order of the layers.
(https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/selecting-grouping-linking-layers.html)
When creating images such as attachments, I can't group them(paperclip) because I'm afraid the order will change. link feature such as photoshop(link layers) will be very useful in this situation..1 vote -

Allow option/alt+space keyboard shortcut for nonbreaking space
InDesign refuses to register option/alt+space as a keyboard shortcut for Type menu ▸ Insert Whitespace: Nonbreaking space, even though such keyboard shortcut for that character is the default in all macOS Cocoa apps and Microsoft Word.
It should register it and allow to set it for that.

Please fix the tab export issue in EPUB format! We're paying for a program that promises print AND flowable epubs but getting only half.
I'm incredibly unhappy about paying so much money out of pocket for a program that does only half of what it promises. It promises print and ebook exports. Print works fine. Epub does not export tabs, indents, or line spacing. I've had your techs work on the program with a program file of mine after I showed them my work flow, and they took two weeks and couldn't do it. I did everything right, even according to them. Their solution was to have me get another program to do the job Adobe InDesign promises it will do but does not…

Iibraries panel back link
The libraries panel is shaky on a 4K monitor - it's slow to load and there are display quirks galore.
But that's not what I want to mention.
The arrow to go back to all libraries is a link but the title of the library - which appears directly to the right - is not a link.
UI 101 - please fix.1 vote -
Show/hide buttons
We are working on interactive brochures with indesign but it is really difficult. If you have a page with a high number of buttons it is almost impossible deal with them because the window ("show/hide buttons") to control them is too small, you can't resize it and you can't change the position of the elements inside it...
Could you please solve this problem?

Ability to pass ownership of Share For Review to another user, or indeed share ownership
It would be really beneficial to be able to move ownership of a Share For Review to another user or indeed be able to have a buddy be the owner as often we move our documents around our workforce.

Place .aic and .psdc files
As work flows are continuing to become more and more cloud based with the new photoshop and illustrators, the natural step would be to allow us to place .aic and .psdc files into an InDesign file. These items will be invaluable as we build for future users.

Adding Afrikaans
Hi would it be possible to add the Afrikaans dictionary as a standard language?
Or how do I add it to my own programme in CC? I am struggling o do it the same as with previous versions.5 votes -
Repeat Table header?Skip the first row of the first table instead of the whole header of the first page
Duplicate header, there is an error.
Can I skip the first line of the header instead of the whole header.
What's the point of skipping the whole header on the first page?
My header has two lines. I skip the first line on the first page, which is more useful. How to operate?
David Blatner used a method, helpless, no real perfect solution.
Adobe needs to improve.
Skip the first row of the first table instead of the whole header of the first page

Make it remember when I choose "View -> Actual size"
Make it remember when I choose "View -> Actual size". God knows how many times I had to go in and choose it again, as it switches back to "Fit Spread in Window" or "Fit Page in Window".

Share for Review - Option to select/highlight text
When an editor is reviewing the document it whould be verry nice to have the option to select a part of a sentence that has to be corrected. Now there is only the option to pin it or draw a shape.
The editor now had to select the text, make a Pin and paste the text that has to be changed in the review box and add the new text.
Ideal whould be to have the option when text is selected the interface makes a new notiation from the selected text and highlights it in the document.

Target cell styles in find/change
Working with long tables would be easier if find/change could be limited by cell style.
It would be even better if this find/change could include inserting text when there is nothing present in the cell.

"Revert" function needs an "undo revert"
"Revert" function needs an "undo revert" in case of accidental "revert." Perhaps the Revert would open up the file in memory as a new document with the Text added to the file name '(reverted)'
For example: MyFilename (reverted).indd
