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.

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.1 vote -
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".

"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

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…

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 ?
(nous travaillons sur MAC Book Pro et iMac)

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.

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...

How to release an IP address on a Mac?
To release and renew your IP address in Mac OS X, you’ll use the Network system preferences to renew the DHCP Lease.
- Click the Apple button and choose System Preferences.
- Choose the Network icon.
- Select your method of connecting to the internet. In most cases it will either be Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
- Click Advanced.
- If you selected Ethernet, you should already be in the TCP/IP tab heading. If you aren’t, or if you selected Wi-Fi, click the TCP/IP tab heading.
- Click Renew DHCP Lease.
- Click OK to exit the Advanced window, and then exit System Preferences.
A restart may be…

Adjust Leading Between Bullet Points
It is super time consuming to adjust the leading between bullet points every time manually. If we could set it in the paragraph style that would be so much faster. Went mad researching online but apparently there is no way to resolve this.

Add preflight flags for specific paragraph and character styles
The preflight panel is quite powerful and useful. I think it could be improved by adding the ability to flag specific font styles. For example, when working on a document, I use a character style to add highlight to text in need of revision. If the preflight panel could flag the text with that style applied, it would be easier to locate the items needing revision.

Pantone libraries for color bridge CMYK formulas do not match the published Pantone formulas.
InDesign team advised Adobe has their own conversion. That's unacceptable. Designers need the confidence that the color libraries are in fact what they are called in CS. Any time a project goes to press and does not meet expectations, a printer can simply say - those colors are not the correct pantones and leave the designer holding the bag. Yes we can manually enter the correct values. But, unless designers experience a project go wrong, they're probably trusting Adobe libraries to be what they're called in CS. Adobe needs to update the libraries, or delete them, or simply call them…

Dynamic Spelling Additions
Hi there,
I've lost sleep over this one. So, I'd like to suggest a feature that would be a little more helpful in the future in regards to fixing erros in a document. Here's the problem. As, it happens regularly.
I am provided a document with many highlighted spelling revisions. In the "DynamicSpellingChange" image dynamic spelling highlights all the families last names in a document. And just underneath Victoria Tseng Paepcke, Helen's Neice is spelled wrong.
This is my human error. As I typed this in after sending a revised proof that was already incorrect because I was in a…

group images by page
we would like to have the option to show links or images grouped by page because we have some time same images in 60 pages and we then want to replace them only on specif pages. so instead of doing it one image at a time, we could then just replace the images based on pages.

Please include more options in Check Spelling
If you could please include similar features as the Find/Change button to the Check Spelling option - an ignore/include masters button during a spell check would be particularly useful.
