2. next page doesn't work

   Hi there,

   When inserting Type=>Special Characters=>Marker=>Next page InDesign inserts the CM marker which is the current page. Consequently where I need the next page number to appear it displays the current page number.

   Kind regards

   Need More Info  ·  AdminRavi Kiran (Senior Lead Quality Engineer, Adobe InDesign) responded

   The text frame containing the Next Page Number Marker has to just touch the text frame and the correct page number gets picked. No need to link the text frames together. Just the fact that it touches the text frame will make it automatically pick the correct next page number that the text flows to in the document.

   Hope that helps.

3. Could you please add support for 3dconnexion space mouse?

   Could you please add support for 3dconnexion space mouse? It would be great to use their mouse for paning, zooming and scrolling.
   I've contacted the people behind 3dconnexion and they told me that support for an application (Indesign) is determined by the application developer rather than by 3dconnexion. They have an SDK which you could use to integrate support for the space mouse in Indesign.
   Thank you if you would consider this.

   Kind Regards,
   Marti van der Zanden

5. Option to select default editor for scripts.

   After update to MacOs Catalina the command to "Edit Script" from the flyout menu does nothing when in an Indesign version prior to CC 2020. This is because ExtendScript Toolkit no longer runs as it is a 32 bit application.

   In Indesign 2020 the command opens Visual Studio Code.

   However, I prefer using another application for editing scripts.

   So my feature request is simply:
   We need options to select which application Indesign opens for editing scripts.
   Maybe even one for applescripts, one for javascripts and one for vb scripts.

   Or at least rely on the system’s default application for the filetype in question.

   Thanks

7. arabic support

   Add support for toggling right-to-left text in all versions of InDesign.

   Do not hide/remove/restrict it for users who don't use an african/middle-eastern language version of the program. Having to install multiple InDesign-versions depending on what document you work with is stilly. Is there any reason for this at all?

   We have designers that occasionally have to set documents translated to Arabic. Right now this is near-impossible as we use an English version of InDesign.

   It appears the support is there "under the hood" and you have just hidden it in the UI, since I can get "right-to-left" paragraph settings in my styles if I base it off the arabic placeholder text (the option is not in the UI, but can still be saved in the style).

   I don't have to install an arabic browser to see arabic text. I don't need to install an arabic version of Word to edit word documents with arabic text. It should not be nesscessary with InDesign either.

9. Import a multipage PDF into existing graphic frames

   I need to be able to set up a document with graphic frames, then import a multipage PDF using a script which places each page into each frame. When the script encounters a page not containing a frame, it will miss it out and place into the next available frame.

10. Problem with Paragraph Borders across the page (with same paragraph style)

    In the "Paragraph Borders" we need an option that allows you to determine whether or not to leave the "paragraph border" at the bottom of the page. When using the same paragraph style (to simulate a table) often the client requires that the border at the bottom (or top) of the page are not visible, to indicate continuity (as happens now in the case in which the same paragraph is divided between the two pages).

    Operating system: "catalina 10.15.1".
    InDesign: version 15.0.1.

11. Radically improve indexing efficiency

    This is a general suggestion. Indexing is one of the most tedious, time-consuming processes in ID. Look for ways to make it more efficient. Here are some suggestions.

    1. When a user selects text for indexing, automatically look up that text in the index listing and display those that match. Often the text with say "John Smith" but his name is in the index as" John H. Smith." When a user selects text with "Smith" in it, have a window that displays all entries with "Smith," allowing the proper one to be selected.

    2. Clicking to open lists under first letters is a pain. Why not have a menu option to open all of them?

    3. Why not have the option for an automatically opening search window. If a user is looking for "Smith, John," all he would need to do is type "sm" to see it displayed. That would save a lot of scrolling time.

12. Ability to scroll/move on page while style options window is open

    In earlier versions of InDesign this was possible. Now I can only zoom in and out. While editing my styles I want to be able to still zoom AND scroll/move on the pages in order to see the changes where the take effect.

13. Allow variables to be used within styles

    It would be great to have a more flexible method of configuring styles; the purpose being to cut down on the number of styles with only minor differences between them.

    We use page templates where the layout is pretty much the same, apart from minor differences / colours. But we have to define a complete set of styles for all colour variations, greatly increasing the complexity.

    However, if you can enable any setting to be stored as a variable, this could reduce the number of styles in a document by 90%. For example:

    A set of master styles for the document is created, with some settings being stored as variables. These variables are then associated with a particular page template. Then, when you use the master styles in the document, the appearance changes depending on which page template they're used on.

    Used this way, if you have 10 page templates and 10 styles, the total number of styles for the document would be 10. However, at the moment, you have to define styles for each of the page templates, which would mean 100 styles in the document.

    This also has other implications; for example, even though there are 10 styles with only subtle differences between them, they are used for the same purpose on each page (running headers, for example) - yet keyboard shortcuts can't be assigned as you'd have to use 10 different shortcuts, and remember which one is used for which template.

    There are also advantages to using variables too - if you configure a page using one page template, then need to change the style, simply changing the page template would completely change the look in one action (whereas at the moment all styles would have to be changed manually or by find and replace).

15. Reintroduce Composite Fonts, Full East Asian Language Support in English (or any) UI

    It used to be a feature of InDesign, regardless of the UI language setting.
    (It still is for certain UIs, e.g. in the Japanese iD version)

    Please bring back this desperately needed feature.

19. Consolidate shared links when packaging a book

    It would be great when packaging a book to consolidate links that are shared between documents to a "Shared Links" folder.

    As currently if you have 5 chapter document which all have the same link placed in them - then this link will be duplicated 5 times when it is unnecessary and also creates problems when updating links later on
