Add full text markup options to document review (online version)
When sending a document for review through CC online, my reviewers have very limited edit/markup options (add comment, draw, add pin). Can you add all the text markup options available in the "Comment" tool of the desktop version of Acrobat Pro? For example, insert text, add note to replace text, strikethrough, callout boxes, etc. This is valuable to me because it is much easier to read/understand the edits if they're clear text edits, not just comments in a box. Thank you!

Change 'Object Layer Options' on multiple images at the same time
It would be a massive time save if it were possible to change the Object Layers Options on multiple images at the same time.
We build four layer products images in PS with layers across all images named the same:
Product, FlatShadow, StandingShadow, Reflection
When we have 40 products on the page and the customer decides they want the products all to have a reflection, at the moment we have to switch each images Reflection layer on singly. Then in the next round the customer may decide they want no Reflection or Shadow at all. Again we have to switch…6 votes -
Please reinstate this feature: Cmd-H to hide program with no open documents
In InDesign, you can’t hide the program with Cmd-H when no documents are open any more.
It’s a feature I use a lot, and has suddenly stopped working. As far as I know it has been there since the beginning.
Why on earth someone thought it was a good idea to remove this is beyond me.3 votes -
Glyph preference
Hello,
I've encountered a problem where a client is requesting all glyphs for the letter 'g' be changed to an alternate glyph within the same typeface.
Whilst style and GREP methods might work, a method to be able to quickly change the default primary glyph within a set would be amazing.
Currently I can see a small triangle in the corner of the primary used glyph within the glyph window, but would love to be able to move that to the alternate version for that font on that machine within InDesign.
Thank you.

Multiple Nested Styles
Expand the nested paragraph styles to include multiple 'Next' options in one Paragraph Style. This would simplify template setups that repeat the same few Paragraph Styles throughout many pages in various combinations. Currently I create numbered copies of the Paragraph Styles to account for all the variations. It would be nice to see one Paragraph Style for each page that contained the all the Next styles rather than having dozens of repeated styles to manage.

Allow Articles Pane to scroll to add more items easily
I'm working on a document that has many articles to drag into the articles pane. It's far too easy to accidentally drag a new article into an existing one because you can't scroll up to show enough blank space in the pane. Why is there no slider in the pane so there's enough room to drag new items?

Add ability to edit all InDesign form fields in a table for faster creation and edits
I can create beautiful forms using InDesign. For example, I create intake documents and questionnaires for law firms. Some of these forms can become dozens of pages long with hundreds of fields. Consider the vast array of information required for an estate plan. For some of these forms, the number of fields becomes literally too many to manage on a one-at-a-time basis.
Imagine if there was an option to edit a table of all the form fields in a document once created. This process could potentially become super-streamlined.
One would still be required to draw in the fields, but once…

A way to extract font and text styling from an image
There should be way to capture styling information from an image. It will be helpful to find out and use the font and other kind of text styling used in an image.
This way I'll be able to save information from an inspirational image for later use in my design.1 vote -
Reveal in Bridge Automatically Installs Bridge
There's a few places in InDesign where you can accidentally hit the "Reveal in Bridge" and if you don't have this installed on your computer already - it will auto-install the app from the Creative Cloud.
I don't think it should do this - it should prompt you to if you want to install this to your computer rather than forcing the download.
I also would like an option to Disable the Reveal in Bridge - as I don't use it and it's so annoying when you have to go back and uninstall apps that you never wanted installed.

Online InDesign document for client text edits — like InCopy but online without the need for technical know-how or files to move around
I wish there was a way to post InDesign files online that would easily allow proofreaders, editors, clients or anyone without a lot of technical know-how to log in and make text edits. Freeing up designers from spending countless hours making text edits.
We tried InCopy, but we store files on a shared server and move files up and down through a project management tool. Being able to properly move the InDesign and linked icml files was way too confusing for our writers and proofreaders and out of the question for clients.
When we work on PPT presentations, we post…

Allow users to create a shortcut for a paragraph style including "apply next style"
You can add a shortcut to each paragraph style. If you apply it to several paragraphs they will all be in this style although you may have insert a "next style" to apply.
So it would be great to have the opportunity for 2 shortcuts:
– the way it's used to be
– for applying the style plus next style5 votes -

We need feature variables
Ideas for expanding the functionality of text variables have already appeared here. It would also be interesting to create variables to describe the properties of non-text objects. For example, color, font size, size (length / width), page position, styles, etc.
The benefit of such an introduction is obvious: you do not need to create many monotonous styles that differ only in one or two common features. It would also indirectly affect the number of master spreads created.
Each property of a certain object represented by a list (for example, color) can be expanded with variables of the corresponding types (color…
