  2. Allow Data Merge to use .csv with semicolon separated text

    Currently one has to use tab separated text (.txt) or comma separeted text (.csv). When using the .csv-export from Excel, it generates semicolons as separators, which is helpful because there may be a comma inside a table cell. So it would be helpful to use this text directly in InDesign.
    This might be an issue only in the German version of Excel/InDesign, but it causes a lot of trouble.

  3. Verlaufsfelder lassen sich nicht gruppieren. (Gradients cannot be grouped)

    Make a folder for gradients like you can do for colors.

  4. Allow object style to set the size of an object

    One of my ongoing projects is design and layout of a scientific journal with 2 column pages. Columns are 264pt wide, and every issue has hundreds of images that have to be 264 pts wide. They all have the same object style applied. If it could specify their width and cause them to be resized as soon as I apply the style, it would save me a ton of time and repetition.

  5. Where do we enter InCopy/InDesign workflow requests

    Seriously, InCopy-related questions get dumped into "Other"? Can we get a full-fledged InCopy category here?

    Thank you for the suggestion Anne-Marie. I have added an InCopy category to this page.

  6. Paragraph shading with rounded corners

    Paragraph shading is very useful, but for some reason clients always seem to want to have rounded corners on boxes/panels :)

    If we could have rounded corners that we can define the radius of this would give a lot more flexibility for layout. Paragraph shading works inside table cells too so this would open up a lot of possibilities for table styles.

  7. 'Apply Similar Filter' character addition

    As already used in Photoshop and Illustrator, the 'Apply Similar Filter' to text and character seems like a logical step, given that InDesign is a primarily text heavy application, being able to select similar fonts would be a must in my books.
