Enable Animated/Scrubby Zoom
Add the animated/scrubby zoom feature for PC users--it's time. It's ridiculous Photoshop and Illustrator has it, but not InDesign? Since Mac users are given tools PC users don't have, perhaps Adobe should discount our subscription fee.
Animated Zoom is now available in GPU Preview mode on Windows from version 20.5 onwards.

How is this still not fixed?! There is absolutely no reason for it. Its either laziness or something underhanded.

This is what i came here to add or find. I also switch between Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign with frequency and hate the lame, incomparable zoom in InDesign. I cuss every time i zoom in too closely thinking it's the animated zoom. Please add it!!

Absolutely. This is beyond infuriating and so destructive to my workflow. I go back and forth from Photoshop to Illustrator and InDesign all the time, and not having animated zoom in InDesign is horrible. There's no reason for it.

I wonder why they still have not added scrubby zoom to InDesign and InDesign CC 2019 (v14.0) is broken and unusable. Had to go back to v13.1.
Adobe, please add scrubby zoom because it seems like you guys are trying to unify the user experience (finally) in the 2019 versions across these three software but still seems clueless.

Animated zoom even without HiDPI screen. My Indesign CC doesn't support the feature yet my Illustrator CC on the exact same system setup does and is buttery smooth. Surely if Illustrator can do it on the exact same system Indesign can too?

I'm a long time Photoshop and Illustrator user, I have some work thats optimally done in InDesign and honestly the program is horrible borderline unusable. Having such a crucial feature missing across you're most switched between and powerful programs is terrible.

It really is a very important tool for me to use on either Mac or PC. Animated zoom is a great feature to have.

Seconded, although it's also called "Animated Zoom" for those unaware.

Scrubby zoom option in the Preferences with enable/disable toggle, just like in Photoshop and Illustrator.
And the default option should be unticked (disabled).
