Allow Object Layer Options to be included as an attribute for Object Styles.

Example: I have an annual report for a group of charities under one umbrella organization. It lists various projects the charities are working on. Some projects are operated by only one charity, some two, some all three. I have an Illustrator file with a graphic for each charity. I use Object Layer Styles to show or hide the symbols for each charity. I must use Object Layer Options for each use of this graphic to indicate which charity(s) are operating each project. It can be very time consuming and introduces a chance of error as I edit the options for each placement of the graphic. If I could use Object Styles to assign layer options I could save a great deal of time and ensure greater consistency.

Seeing as InDesign has interactive PDFs in mind giving us the ability to create forms easily and then export them as a PDF to open in Acrobat, I feel like a feature to inset placeholder text to fields shouldn't be too difficult to implement.

To clarify, I was hoping to find an option under the Buttons and Forms toolbox that allows us to check off a box for placeholder text so when someone types in the field the original text there is overwritten with the new content. Like a "W" for width and an "L" for length in field boxes meant to hold dimensions for rooms.

I could see it being part of the Buttons and Forms toolbox where you select an option that says "Placeholder Text" and offers you a field to write in what that text is going to be. Then you can simply duplicate that Text Field for as many times as needed.

Right now the option I'm using is just creating all the field normally and after exporting them into PDF, I then have to go through each field individually and manually add the placeholder text, then save it. This takes a lot of time out of my day to do because there are a lot of these fields I have to do this too.

The task host window program isn't a virus or malware but the error can damage some of the hardware or files if not solved. the problem generally occurs if a program remains unclosed and still you're attempting to shut down your PC. When the error pops up, the Windows will charge to close the program or ask you to shut down anyway which ends up within the task host window is stopping background tasks on your Windows 10 PC.

Then, double-click on the first search result to open the control panel. Under the command prompt, scroll down and choose the Power option from the menu.
On the next window, navigate to the left column and select the What does the power button do option. Thereafter, tap on the ‘change settings that are currently unavailable’ button.
Unmark the dialog box beside the ‘Turn on fast startup’ option. Then, tap on Save so as to save lots of the changes. Once you've got successfully disabled the Fast Startup feature, reboot your system.
Check if the problem still persists or not. If yes, then navigate to the next fixing techniques.
Method 2: Repair the Registry Entries associated with Microsoft Update on your Computer
If the registry files get corrupted or are missing, then it'll end in a task host window is stopping background tasks on your Windows system. you would like to restore all the missing registry entries to resolve this issue. Perform the steps mentioned below to succeed in the task:
1. activate your computer and you'll see the Windows Start button at the left-bottom corner of the screen. after that, click on that key to still the next screen.

3. After that, click Yes when a permission dialog box opens.
4. Now, this will open a black box with a blinking cursor on the next window. Type “Regedit” within the box and tap the Enter key to proceed to the next.
5. Select the task host window related entries from the Registry Editor folder on the very top. And, from the File menu choose the Export option that is at the end of the results.
6. Select the folder within the Save list where you would like to save Microsoft backup and choose the selected Branch option.

We need more controls in InDesign's FORMS tools.

Although this was requested in https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601021-adobe-indesign-feature-requests/suggestions/20482882-more-options-when-creating-forms-via-indesign, it was closed after font controls were added.

That's Not Enough! In fact, it's probably the least needed form feature of all.

The short list of what's needed:

— Add calculations and formula to a form field.

— Add JavaScripts and other programming to a form field.

— Color the background fill of a form field...and have it "stick" in the PDF, not be overridden by the user's Acrobat settings.

— When using tables to create a matrix of form fields for layout purposes, we have the option to set the table to Artifact, AND keep the content in the cells in tact as live tagged text and form fields. Sometimes a layout table is needed to lay out a complex form, but the table structure itself (<Table> <TR> <TD> etc.) is not needed. Especially critical for accessible PDF forms. Give me an option to select the entire table and set the table structure to be artifacted.

— When creating form fields that become a matrix of form fields (example, an expense report), give me a tool to automatically fill the cells (all of them or individually selected cells) with a form field. Right now, must select each cell individually, right click, and change it to a graphic cell, AND then convert each one of those, one by one, to a form field. SO much work when creating a full-page or multi-page form. Hundreds of repeated steps!

We should be able to delete InDesign files. Not just set them to zero in a masking action, as is in the community forum. Then we lose access to files. Is this the only program, ever, in which the user cannot delete a file? Why? I am getting so many files left over from drafts, that it hinders my work. It will go on an on. At some point I will have to make a written log of each file I save, so I can mark them as which ones had a flaw, or wasn't needed for which reason, since I can't delete them, and they often look very similar. We need to be able to delete files. This defies logic. Does InDesign think this is only used by third graders who only make a few different things each year. Come to think of it, third-graders make a lot of drafts of new documents, then discard them, being third-graders and all. Well, I'll warn off the third-graders to watch out to not try to be to creative with new ideas and new drafts of things, because soon enough you'll have hundreds of drafts to sort through and keep track off. My sarcasm is to make a point. This isn't logical. InDesign programmers are discouraging us from saving new drafts and new ideas because we fear never getting rid of them.

For those of us with color-blindness issues (and it's my belief that there's a lot more of us than you think...), there really needs to be a simple preference switch for the default Ruler Guide color to be changeable. It should be so simple to just go into Prefs & select the guide color we can actually see, then simply carry on working. But currently it's a complete ball-ache every time to have to go into 'Layout > Ruler Guides > Change color > Ok'. The current 'long-way-round' change guide color process is just an added frustration to every job! Can you please add this feature in??

Include original INDD filename in metadata on PDF export.

I often get PDFs from clients, usually well after a job has been completed, where they want to update it, or base a new document on the PDF. Some clients, no matter how many times you tell them not to, change the name of the PDF file, making it a little more difficult to find the source file. Or a new client will send me a PDF that I did not create... then I have to ask for the source file, and of course you get "deer in the headlights eyes". If you could point them to an exact filename that might help before you tell them you have to recreate the file from scratch. If you could include the original INDD filename in the PDF metadata that would help a LOT.

I produce several multi-language books & brochures that consists of up to 114 separate documents linked via a Book file. Each language has its' own layer with the same name in all documents while other layers are exclusive to, or only exist in some documents. Currently when I have to Print or create a PDF of a specific language I have to open every single document to activate the layers I want visible, save, and then proceed to output the entire book.

I would like to propose that Indesign incorporate an additional tab in its' print/pdf dialog boxes that lists ALL layers across all documents selected and allows the user to choose via a checkbox which layers are to be output.

Furthermore I'd like to suggest layers with the same name work similar to how the Links dialog works where I could select the top-most label to output all layers with the same name -OR- have a drop down that lists the documents that layer name is found in & allows me to select which ones I want output or not.

Additionally, I would like to be able to SAVE active layer settings so they can be reloaded rather than having to re-indicate which layers need to be activated/deactivated again when I go to reprint any particular language. This of course will likely require an indicator if available layers have changed within any of the selected files within the book.

This would save a tremendous amount of time & effort especially when a change occurs across all languages requiring I output the entire book for each language. Currently having to open, activate/deactivate layers, & re-save every document for each language I need to output is extremely time consuming & ridiculous.

Thank you in advance for your consideration. I truly hope you will choose to implement this suggestion.

Respectfully,
Len Zigante
