  1. Uses of Quickbooks auto data recovery

    Auto Data Recovery facilitates data recovery in two ways:

    Use your current Transaction Log file and a duplicate of your Company file to recover lost transactions.
    All transactions should be rebuilt using a copy of both your transaction and business files, with the exception of the recent few hours.

  2. fix options for interactive forms (text fields) - default text, font, size, color, alignment, etc. - none currently work CC 21

    when making interactive PDF, the Text field doesn't hold the default text, or the font, size and doesn't hold the color.... The text field should hold all the text & attributes that are set in indesign, but even the options for the text field doesn't hold the font or size.

  4. Show/Hide global baseline and textframe baseline individually

    It would be nice to be able to show/hide the global baseline and textframe baseline individually. At the moment they are turned on and off together which can be pretty hard to navigate.

  5. 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..

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. 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".

  10. Highlighting non-consecutive words

    I would like to easily highlight non-consecutive words in a document, e.g. names of people in an article, so that I can apply a style sheet to all the highlighted words with one click of the style sheet.

    Don't want to use GREP, just a simple keystroke or keystroke combination, e.g. shift > highlight; shift, option > highlight.

    Carpel tunnel syndrome is bad enough.

    Thank you for the consideration.

  11. Allow Disabling of Zoom to Selection *in InDesign*

    Problem:
    Right now if you have an object select and use the +/- keys to zoom in and out, the view is centred in on the selected object.

    Use Case:
    Sometimes I have objects selected as I am trying to maneuver them into the best position and need to zoom in and out of the pasteboard to see how the layout is affected. For objects at the edge of the pasteboard, the current behaviours doesn't allow me to keep the page centred as it keep jumping to centre the selected object instead while using the +/- keys.

    Solution:
    Add a…

  12. "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

  13. A keyboard shortcut or an option to make a shortcut for the Auto-fit feature.

    I use auto-fit A LOT and it gets quite time-consuming to always have to click on the tick box EVERY. SINGLE. TIME I want to turn it on or off

  14. How to password protect a Mac OS X application?

    Start by installing the AppLocker app from the App Store on your Mac.

    When you open the app, you’ll find a new icon in the menu bar. You’ll see a popup asking you to set a password. Here, click on the “Setup My Password” button.

    From the Preferences menu, create your password (something that you won’t forget), and if you have a MacBook with Touch ID, you can also check the “Enable Touch ID” option. Now, click “Save Password” and then click on the red Close button in the top-left corner to exit the Preferences pane.

    Go to the menu…

  16. affichage

    Bonjour,

    mon équipe et moi même rencontrons souvent ce genre de problème d'affichage lorsque nous passons d'un mode à l'autre (touche W)... peu importe le document qu'il soit long ou non, complexe ou non...

    est ce normal ?

  18. Tab key to navigate through text fields only

    In dialog boxes, pressing the tab key should only navigate between text fields. It used to do this. Now it navigates through every field, button and popup menu. There is a system keyboard setting that regulates this. InDesign now ignores this setting.

    For example, in the New Document box, press the tab key repeatedly and it goes:

    Facing Pages > Start Page # > Primary Text Frame > Page Size > Width ...and so on.

    It should only go:

    Start Page # > Width ...all those other buttons etc should be skipped.

  19. zoom in/zoom out functionality on the Add Bullets dialogue box

    Please, PLEASE can the next version of InDesign offer zoom in/zoom out functionality (the same as you see bottom-right of the Glyphs panel) to the Add Bullets dialogue box.

    Currently, the scrolling area where you can select a bullet character is so small, less than 4% of the screen on my monitor, with no way to zoom in. (see attached screenshot)

    Paragraph Style Options > Bullets and Numbering > Bullet Character Section > Add...

  20. Hebrew diacritics in Indesign

    It would be great if I could select a Hebrew vowel or a cantillation (trope) mark in liturgical texts and shift it vertically or horizontally. Currently in 16.3.2 Mac. I can select the marks blind, as it were, but they don't highlight and can't be shifted. The solution I've found is extreme kerning with the neighbouring consonant.
