With LayoutWindow.bounds I can get and set the bounds of the window, but I want to get and set the bounds of the view port, ie. what the user sees inside the window. If view port bounds is too difficult, then just a centerOfView coordinate would be fine—combined with the already-available zoom value, that would achieve most things I'd need.

For what it's worth, it is possible to do what I want in Illustrator.

The DOM is not available to add the alternate text for the hyperlinks. For accessibility, the alternate text is required for hyperlinks and the same is available in the latest InDesign app. I hope Javascript DOM might be useful to automate this.

Don't Adobe and Apple talk to each other? Every time one or the other changes tech, nothing works. They need to be on the same page as each other because it goes hand in hand with their products working together.

Some newer javascripts functions are not working.
Would be nice to be able to use functions like forEach, Object.assign Array.filter, ...

Text variables sometimes require more complex processing of conditions, and the list of variables that we have now, with rare exceptions, is more like "text constants".
It would be nice to have a new type of text variable, the instances ​​of which are calculated using a custom script, with each inserted instance having to be calculated separately, depending on where it was inserted.

I've been using the Adobe Suite for years for both photo and video editing. Recently I started using InDesign and found out that the only script available that lets you open an InDesign file in Photoshop with everything on separate layers is for Apple devices only.

Can we get a solution to this? I know I'm not alone here. Willing to beta test and do whatever else would be needed to help expedite this.

It would be interesting to make it possibile to calculate some values inserted into a table, like Excel does.
We can't create calculate fields in existing tables with data inserted into.
This would be very useful when we have some price list in a cloumn, the user puts a quantyty order in a row and then to have the final price (multiplication) in another row.

It would be great, scripts could be embedded into InDesign documents, so any user working with the document could execute the embedded script for this document.

These embedded scripts show up in the scripts panel in their own area, next to the other areas "application", "user", "community" –> "embedded"..

The script itself should optionally be protectable with a password and be saved in JSBIN format, so it’s executable, but could not be changed or extracted by the user.

Change bar, as a very basic future and just as applied easily in Adobe Framemaker, I belive most users will welcome this if it is added at no cost.
Could you please consider adding this for next versions and provide it it for the current users. Thank you for your support.

I want a script that puts the characters overflowing from the text frame into the text frame aspect ratio.

LayoutWindow: activePage... also need a displayedPage field

The field LayoutWindow::activePage does not change when the user navigates to another page until another insertion point is selected. I would like to be able to track the page that is currently displayed.

Many elements of the page have the ability to subscribe to messages (events of change of such an item are especially interesting), but this does not work. Does the event system work only for UI, Application, and Document?

There are too few documents that describe events on page items ...

Today the all dictionary & spell checking take the resource from internet too - like a from wikitonary, google translator to have more vocabray. Please make sure & improve this function.

Enable XML structure export to Word by formatting the exported tags and attributes in the same way that index entries are formatted. I need to preserve the XML when exporting to Word and then reimporting the updated Word file.

I need to search for tags in Story Editor, or in any manner besides the Structure panel, to remove conditions that are arbitrarily applied by InDesign (when a word has a condition applied).

Be able to rename already placed images in InDesign as a bulk, something similar to Adobe Bridge Batch Rename, the issue with Bridge will be I will have to place each image at a time in InDesign if I used Bridge to rename my images.

The ability to access assets from a classic ID library and place them on the artboard via script works great. It would be even better if these functionalities are also possible with CC libraries. This move would push more developers to the cloud environment of Adobe in my opinion.

Currently there are some cloud-related methods like 'placeCloudAsset' and 'setCloudLibraryCollection' listed inside the ID-DOM but these seem to be for internal use only.

Data Merge - When displaying records on a page, show records per row of data based on that row's column quantity value. For example, I have 100 records across 100 rows of data, and 1 record needs to be printed twice, another 3 times, another just once. Instead of the current workaround of having to create multiple rows for each record based on their desired quantity, I'd want one row per record and have one column called X (qty) to tell ID how many times to display that record.

Could and or does InDesign have an Imposition feature for printing multiple pages on one sheet of A4 / A3 paper?
