  1. Add a Variable Fonts Option to Classification

    I'd like to be able to filter all loaded variable fonts in the type menu – similar to other properties like x-height and weight.

  2. Add ability to convert a cross-document shared destination hyperlink to a regular URL without losing/re-entering the link

    FEATURE REQUEST

    In order to help avoid broken and/or inadvertent cross-document shared links, please:

    1. Add a function to the Edit Hyperlink dialog to CONVERT a hyperlink url currently shared from another document into a normal self-sufficient url unlinked from the source document. (Currently, making this change to a hyperlink requires the user to change the selection in the "Link To:" dropdown menu from "Shared Destination" to "URL" which clears the previous the URL, and then hunt down the source URL and manually re-input it.)

    2. Add the ability to apply this conversion to multiple selected hyperlinks at one time from the…

  3. Kennzeichnung aufeinander basierender Formate

    Von der ersten Version an bis heute, vermisse ich die optische Darstellung von aufeinander basierenden Formaten in den Bedienfeldern Absatz-, Zeichen- und Objektformaten. Auf einen Blick zu wissen, welche Formate aufeinander basieren bzw. nicht basieren, sollten farblich oder mit einem grafischen Symbol gekennzeichnet werden. Eine Gruppierung von aufeinander basierenden Formaten kann ich mir auch vorstellen. Die Option für die Darstellung des Basierens sollte im Optionsmenü der Bedienfelder zu Verfügung stehen.

  4. Option to List Fonts by Recently Activated

    I leave a lot of fonts open. Especially with CC fonts, I find I am activating fonts more and more to test them for a project, then I have to go to the font menu and look through it to find them. A great option would be to list the fonts in order of activation. That would save some time – and I know you have an "auto-activation" feature, but for some reason, I've never warmed to that. Thanks!

  5. Find/change return to where you started, like Word

    When you're done Find/Replace, InDesign leaves you at the last occurrence, and you have to navigate to where you started. In Word, most of the time the screen returns to where you started, saving you time. Any chance of adding this to InD?

  7. Show accented letters with alternate glyphs

    When finding a letter with an accent, currently you have to search the glyphs panel, maybe narrowing it down with the dropdown, or paste it in. What would be great would be if the accented versions of letters (e.g. è, é, ê, ë) showed underneath the alternate glyphs when a letter was selected. Even if it was only the major accents showed, this would save a lot of time. It would probably be best as an option that can be turned on or off.

  8. Improve Screen Display Quality - 4K Related

    I've recently upgraded to a 4K monitor. When working on InDesign documents, the type is not "sharp". I am running in the High Quality Display setting, the text and graphics are not sharp. If I run the display driver at 150% this problem exists, if I run at 100%, the type and graphics are very sharp - as expected. So this is a Windows related issue.

    Could the 150% magnification be ignored for the page display, but remain for the toolbars, etc.

    I have "old" eyes from too much time in front of these monitors!

    Thanks

    윈도우 11, 한글 인디자인 18.0 x64 버전 사용하고 있습니다.
    한글을 입력하는 동안 문자가 완성되기 전에는 화면 좌측 상단에 입력된 내용이 표시되고 인디자인에서 작업하는 곳(입력하고 있는 곳)에는 문자가 완성된 후에 표시됩니다. 문자가 완성되기 전에도 문자의 입력 모양이 인디자인 작업 화면에 표시가 되어야 합니다.
    해결 방법을 바랍니다.

  10. on this page

    For cross-references, "See figure 12 on page 321" is sort of silly if that text APPEARS on page 321. Wouldn't it be nice to offer an option to have the cross-reference, if the figure's on the same page, say "See figure 12 on this page"?

  11. Support headlines in separate column (sideheads)

    It's a pretty common layout to have headline paragraphs in a separate column and their corresponding body paragraphs to the right. (See attached images for examples.) This layout is currently only supported by creating tables, but this isn't semantically correct for the content.

    It would be great if InDesign supported assigning paragraph styles to specific columns, e.g. H1 spans columns 1-3, H2 is column 1, body copy spans columns 2-3.

  12. Change Toggling Style Override Highlighter to Turn On/Off

    Toggling the style override highlighter is confusing if there isn't any override on the current page. Change the function from toggling to turning on or off.

  14. Preference settings for a bulleted list

    Make a program or document preference setting for a manually formatted bulleted list. Now the hanging indent is always 6,35 mm and the bullet is always a dot.

    And yes - I know this can be done by a paragraph style ...

  16. Trademark, registered trademark, n-dash, and m-dash shortcuts

    Bring back the keyboard shortcuts for trademark, registered trademark, copyright, n-dash, and m-dash. They are so buried now. We used these hourly. I know you can find them in the glyphs panel. But it worked fine before. I could just keep typing without opening a new panel.

  17. Text frame option

    Text frame option is in Object Menu right now. If the Text frame option is in text related groups like "Window>types & table" that would be helpful. Since when vertical alignment of text is required, we have to go to object menu and text frame option. Grouping all text related features would be fine

  18. Allow to bring selected text to foreground or push it backwards, relatively to the unselected text, within the same text object

    When creating slab text block, for example, as a single text frame (rows with different lengths of text, and make the rows equal lenght by changing the font size of each row, rather than changing the tracking) some of the rows you want to overlap other rows (big font sizes) as a design feature, for example titles as slab text block.
    In that text block you could push selected text in the background, behind the not selected text, if this feature would exist.
    So that you wouldn't be required to create a separate object for each row of text.

  19. Hyperlink updates

    It seems odd that there is no way to have hyperlinks open in new windows, or have noopener/noreferrer options. The new window would make exported pdfs much easier to use especially since most browsers open pdf links instead of having the document downloaded. And, given the nature of the internet these days, making all links default to a rel="noreferrer noopener" seems like a smart idea to make links safer to use.

  20. Table of Contents

    Can we have another ToC option: Layout > Update All Table of Contents where there is more than one in a document.

    Where there is more than one ToC they have to be updated individually every time. (I have one document with four ToC's)
