Make UI Scaling NOT affect document scaling
The recently-added UI Scaling feature also scales the size my document is displayed! Why?? When I type command-1 to view my document at actual size, I expect an 8.5 x 11 page to be that size on the screen. But if I increase the scale of the UI (tools, pallets, etc.) it also increases the "actual size" scaling of my document so it's much bigger than it should be. So, in other words, the UI scaling should NOT affect the scaling of the document rulers; 1" should always be displayed at 1".

Ability to adjust opacity of guides - rows and columns
Users should be able to adjust the opacity of guides, enabling greater emphasis to be given to chosen elements. For example a rectangle frame tool can stand out more than the rows and columns used, otherwise it is very messy and impossible to sometimes use both at the same time.

Book :: Tell when someone else has a chapter file open on OneDrive
I know that if you store the INDB file and the INDD files on your server, InDesign allows multiple people to open the same INDB file simultaneously. In that case, the Book panel has a rudimentary feature that will tell you when someone else has one of the chapter files open. Can we add this functionality for people that work off OneDrive Locations? With every one working remotely we can't be VPN'd into servers due to file lag.

Describing the purpose of a link in EPUBs using aria-label
Description
It would be really great if hyperlinks would get an (optional) attribute to describe their purpose, and this being reported in EPUB outputs as values of aria-label attributes.
https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/Techniques/aria/ARIA8
Something similar is already in place for alt-text ("Edit Hyperlink..." -> "Accessibility" -> "Alt-Text") which I understand plays a role in PDF outputs.
Why is this valuable to you?
This would bring a GREAT accessibility enhancement in all those occasions where the hyperlink (or the hyperlinked text) does not provide enough context/information to the reader (i.e. when reporting DOI links - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_object_identifier - they almost never offer any info on…

Rename "flush space"
Rename the "flush space" to something more representative; suggest "flex space," "flexible space" or "expanding space."
This element was named in the narrow sense of allowing the last line of a justified paragraph to expand fully to the right margin. With the more obvious and accessible option of "full justification" this purpose of the space element is diminished, and it has use in other ways such as auto-spacing multiple words or phrases across a single line.
Renaming this feature, with no other changes, would make its purpose and availability more apparent to all users. (Even as an ACP/ACE and 20-year…

UI Keep Options dialog (and Keep Options in Paragraph Styles)
Can you please change the layout of the Keep Options Dialog Box so that it is clearer for end users? Attached you find a proposal from my part.
The differences are:
• More space between "Keep with Previous" and "Keep with Next" + added a line in between them.• Keep with Previous and Keep with Next. In the original it seems like you have to check the first (Keep with Previous) and to use the second (Keep with Next).
• Indetation of the radio buttons under "Keep Lines Together" so that it is obvious that they are both part…

Convert missing and and no longer existing hyperlink in to embedded image
When editing an existing file made by someone else who no longer has access to the links used in the file, I want to be able to pin the images to the file so that I can save the pdf without image resolution changes.

Preflight to list Font type used in file.
Please make InDesign Preflight list the type of font missing (Adobe font, ttf, otf). We are a Prepress company and when preflighting jobs, we flag to the customer that a font is missing, but is available in Adobe Fonts. If we just activate the Adobe font, it could be the wrong type. A lot of the times the client has forgotten to send the font (otf, ttf).
An example of this is Adobe Caslon Pro Italic. My file is using the otf type, but InDesign is telling me it is available on Adobe Fonts. If I just activated the Adobe…

Trademark, registered trademark, n-dash, and m-dash shortcuts
Bring back the keyboard shortcuts for trademark, registered trademark, copyright, n-dash, and m-dash. They are so buried now. We used these hourly. I know you can find them in the glyphs panel. But it worked fine before. I could just keep typing without opening a new panel.

Publish Online - repeated issues and lack of certainty with platform
Don't know if this is the right place, but Publish Online service is variable. Continued messing with the interface and uncertainty about what Adobe's going to do next means that I now will have to purchase Ajar In5 and also rent some server space to put my docs on because of the problems I've had with Publish Online interface and also comments from some of Adobe Community forum members that say it's foolhardy to rely on Adobe to continue supporting Publish Online because it's 'free'.
Unfortunately, this means that rather than having Illustrator and Photoshop under my subscription, these will…2 votes
