Inclure une fonction de nouvel article à un style de paragraphe.
J'aimerais que la fonction de Nouvel article puisse se donner à un Style de paragraphe, ainsi on évite de créer un nouvel article à la main en début de chapitre quand on fait un livre. Cela nous faciliterait la tâche lorsqu'un manuscrit inséré en un article complet comporte plusieurs chapitre et que les notes de fins doivent débuter à un à chaque article. Présentement il faut couper l'article manuellement à la fin de chaque chapitre. Il me semble qu'il pourrait y avoir une case à cocher avec notre Style de paragraphe de Titre de chapitre qui pourrait faire automatiquement les…

Change hypenation-language for all text frames at the same time
I would like to select all text frames on one page and change the (hypenation-)language for all of them at the same time. This would save a lot of time when working with seveal languages in the same document.
I know, that I can add new paragraph styles with the corresponding language setting. But that takes way too much time. In our documents, each language has its own layer.1 vote -

Side by Side Page View
When using Adobe InDesign, it would be helpful for certain documents to be able to see two pages side by side. As of now, a simple two-page document has page two appearing below page one.

Stop snapping to pixel or give us option to disable
Give us the option to not snap to pixel when the ruler is set to measure in pixels.
Fine to snap to pixels when drawing boxes and lines. But completely useless for text and anything with a curve.

Font Paths
In the Links pallet, I can see the path to a link; EVEN if it's missing I can see where it was linked from. I would like the same thing for Fonts. In Find/Replace fonts I can only see a path to fonts that are found. I would like a path for Missing fonts, so I know--- were the activated through the Cloud? Or from someone's Font folder (and not properly Packaged). If I know, I can either Activate the fonts from Adobe, or retrieve the fonts from their local hiding place. It would remove the risk of activating an…

An actually useful AI idea: Accessibility/Reading Order
I find many AI features unhelpful - if I need text to image I can do it in Photoshop or Express, I don't need my layout program to do it. What I would love to see AI do is be able to analyze documents and automatically fix accessibility issues, such as reading order and export tagging of headers etc.

Span Columns -- please allow to control width of individual columns
I posted this same note under a topic called "Uneven columns," thinking it was to do with Span Columns. I realized later that it was referring to text frame columns. I am reposting here; please excuse the redundancy.
I run into this over and over and over again when typesetting business text books. Sometimes bullet items are long and sometimes short. The way columns work now, I'm forced to have some of the longer bullet text break to two lines even though, if i could adjust the column widths and have better control over the gutter, there would be ample…

Big bug that's been bugging me for too long: the extracted directory has a lot of duplicate entries.
I've been researching this for a while and I've kind of found the reason.
It's when you set “Skip header rows on first page” for some tables that are actually only one page long, that's when the problem occurs.But I hope adobe will improve it, because you don't know which tables don't end up spanning the page.
You forget about it, and when the client finds out, you get yelled at, or even become an accident.The current solution can only save as IDML, but you can't save as IDML very often.
The sample file is here. Please download the…

InDesign Parent Pages panel. Ordering Parent page designs by dragging them up or down. Needs an insert indicator to verify placement.
I have encountered this issue frequently. When I need to reorder a Parent design to change its list order it is imprecise as to whether I am placing the item (over or under) another Parent design or (on top of.) In many cases you only need to reorder an item, without inadvertently embedding one Parent on another. There should be an indication such as a placement line or arrow to confirm a safe repositioning of the item.

reset cell shading
It would be helpful to be able to reset the alternating row/column shading. Similar to the way numbering can be reset in paragraph styles.
This way people can build in subhead rows or add more complex styling.

Repair Print Booklet please
Anyone finding this post will have the same question: why is it so hard to create an imposed .pdf in InDesign? Is it due to license wars?
I know, there is a workaround via .ps and distiller, but this fails, since there is no flexible generic ppd available. If your home printer only prints A4, you are not able to create an A3 .pdf to print at a printshop. Insane.
Please, Adobe, bring (back) this functionality to create imposed .pdf's at any size with the Print Booklet function, even when no printer is available.

Scaling Text in InDesign
I would like to suggest an improvement to how InDesign handles text scaling. Currently, when I scale an object containing text, the visual size of the text changes, but InDesign still shows the original size in the text panel, displayed in parentheses. This forces users to go through several complicated steps to make the scaled text size permanent without showing the parentheses.
It would be incredibly useful if Adobe could implement a simple feature where the scaled text size is automatically updated to a permanent size, without needing to create outlines or perform manual recalculations. This would streamline workflows and…

Search features for Paragrapch and Character Style Sheets
I work with very large publications, and sometimes will get them from a previous designer. When making design changes, it's essential to be able to find the old styles throughout the book to make adjustments instead of deleting an entire style and have it reflow everything.

Ability to set a layer to high res preview permanently
It would be great to be able to set a layer to high res preview permanently. So that everytime you opened a document it remembered that Layer 2 for example needs to be high res preview.
Reason for this: I work with a lot of dies in packaging, and when I link to them they always lose the high res view, but I need the high res view for the die so I can precisely design.
Yes, I'm aware I can copy and paste the die from illustrator into InDesign, but when you are working with numerous files, it's best…

Calendar Wizard!
So this is a cry for help! I've been using the Calendar Wizard script but when I go to populate the calendar, I'm unable to access some controls because the window that pops up does not give me access to the options at the bottom (save, etc). I can expand the screen to full-size and the options do not appear. I even had my computer service remote-in and look and they said it's likely a programming error. Can anyone help?
This last time I used it, I manually added 4 custom calendars and the window re-tiled to the right and…
