1. Improvement suggestions ‘paragraph’ menu

   Baseline grid value ‘increment every’ field in paragraph menu.
   - Now you have to go to preferences first. It is a significant option for layout.

   Reset option for 'left indent' and 'first line left indent'. Reset to 0/0
   - annoying that I first have to adjust the bottom input field and then the upper one.

3. Blending mode shortcut

   Its been so many years since blending mode exist… and InDesign still not support shortcut for them, when PS & AI all have many ways to customise them already… In InDesign, there's just no way to even add a shortcut for them. the only fast way to sort of fast skimming them is by hovering mouse on the blend mode name, but this is not very precise and not very easy to control, not to mention it creates a lot of history step to undo (which is another bug: if you scroll all the way up and selected luminosity, keep scrolling up its still luminosity, but the steps cound each scroll as a new edit: Set Transparency Parameters, and if you want to undo, you have to cmd Z a lot of times to really see the last blend mode being applied)

   anyway, this all comes to the place that blend mode needs a big fix in 2019

   and when it comes to blending mode, being able to quickly try different set is so crucial in today's workflow

4. Adjust Layout - Columns change no longer works.

   In older versions of InDesign, if you had Adjust Layout on, and changed the columns, the content of the page would adjust. Now if you change the column amount, Adjust Layout turns off. Please bring back the old feature, the new way and work around is terrible and also defeats the function of Master Pages.

5. Add double align tool

   Often I find myself needing to align an object to both vertical AND horizontal centers of an object (for example, an icon in a box, or a number in a circle). It would be great to have one button that will align both vertically AND horizontally at once. This would allow me to set a shortcut and knock out work more quickly!

6. Search Function in the Layer's Panel

   To add to "Inline search filter for all styles panels and swatches", not just list of styles but list of objects within the layer panel. Like Photoshop's layer search.

   I use Photoshop quite a bit and found that the search function within the layers panel very helpful when I have MANY layers and I need to find a certain item (see image below). Well, with InDesign, I might have only one layer but TONS of objects in each. So a search function would be incredibly helpful in finding that object.

7. Content Aware Fitting as an Auto-Fit option

   A bit of a scripting request, but also as a feature of vanilla InDesign, it's not available. Auto-Fit currently only supports the following properties:
   CONTENTTOFRAME
   FILL_PROPORTIONALLY
   PROPORTIONALLY
   NONE

   It would be super cool to be able to apply 'CONTENTAWAREFIT' as an Auto-Fit option on an empty frame.

8. links on shares broken - Mac/Windows

   If you link assets from a server-share on an Windows-PC and open the InDesign-file on a Mac, the links are maintained (if you work with links in UNC style: file://server/share/path/to/image.jpg; mapped shares don't work).
   In the other direction (Mac -> Windows) the links are broken. Would be nice if it would work also in this direction.

9. Vertical tabs (for better vertical justification in/between para spacing)

   There are already similar requests for a fix for the Vertical Justification problem & I'm dealing with this at the moment: several paragraphs & needing the bottom-most para (a 2-line inline table) to appear on the bottom line of the text frame. I have spent so many hours & tried setting it in a table (amongst other things) but, really, it makes more work & I need a Paragraph Border at the sides as a column rule - which was great in a table but which doesn't seem to work on the bottom table paragraph. I'd prefer it as non-table text & what I think would work really well is the ability to VERTICAL TAB just like the horizontal tabs. I am working on separate text boxes that are about 70x120mm in size so it wouldn't work for long continuous docs but for working in separate text boxes & being able to set it in the Para Styles would be awesome, methinks!

    The gap between questions is not equal. Automatic vertical blocking character can be added.

11. PLEASE REMOVE THIS! I want to place an image and shrink it. PERIOD. such a frustration!

    Whenever I drag over a PNG file (which happens to be an icon) and I want to shrink it to a smaller size....I'm always confronted with:

    "This value would cause one or more objects to leave the pasteboard"

    Okay.....that's fine. But why don't you provide INSTRUCTIONS for how to resolve this???? I've been copying it to different areas and nothing works. I've wasted 15 minutes and nothing. Like this is SUCH a burden in my workflow.

    So for the love of God, please remove this PROMPT, it does more harm than good!

12. MacBook Pro Touchbar

    To format text and paragraphs in InDesign I use shortcuts all the time. In really increases my work speed. Unfortunately these only work with a number pad. The MacBook Pro doesn't have a number pad. Could you extend this funktion to either other keys, the touchbar or fn-key combinations?

13. Placed Vector image line weight override

    I work primarily with line art vector files created for instruction sheets. We create the views using a 3D modeling program, save them as PDFs, and then edit them in Illustrator. The images are then placed in InDesign and scaled to fit the page along with the other content. The problem is that the scaled line art stroke weight will scale larger or smaller as it is changed.

    I'm requesting a simple option or override the line weights of the vector files to match... a style? Or even allow them to be edited via the stroke panel? Right-click on the image and select "Override placed stroke..." which opens a dialog box that allows the user to set that specific images line weight? ANYTHING would be better than manually adjusting each image's line weight so that they appear to be similar on the same page in InDesign. I feel like this one change would make so many people's workflow infinitely better. Thank You.

14. X + Y Location

    We have the X and Y fields to get exact locations of objects. It would be nice to have a button that would copy BOTH the X and Y location, and then allow you to paste that location with an object selected.

    This would be useful if you have several pages where a different logo (or copy) on each page needs to be in the same location. You could grab the X/Y location of the logo on the first page, then go to other pages and paste that X/Y location to make sure each logo on each page is in the exact same position.

15. Round corners should not be quarter circles connected with lines.

    The eye will spot the connection points so these points need extra care.
    Adobe should study how Apple shaved off these points on the icons in the iOS. System iOS 6 had the round-corner-fault but in iOS 7 the shape is much better.
    I wish Adobe could give us tools to control the round corners, to shave off these connections points. Old Freehand had this feature. Please bring it back to Illustrator and InDesign.

16. Ability to preselect row and column guide color when using 'Create Guides'

    When you now create guides using the 'Create Guides' function, all guides are default guide color. You need to manually select the guides again / individually to change the guide color. It would make a lot more sense to have the guide color-dropdown present in the 'Create Guides'-window (one for rows, one for columns). This would play nicely with my other open feature requests considering ruler guides.

17. Placed images should place based on resolution, not size.

    When placing 300 dpi image into 72 ppi environment, it should place as real size (perhaps with warning if much larger than placing environment), and vice versa: when placing 72 ppi image into 300 dpi document, it should be 24% the size.

18. Support Schema within InDesign

    Currently, the InDesign Supports to load DTD in the XML structure. This would help us to validate XML within InDesign and it ensures the quality and time saving to the users as well.

    The recent times we use to receive Schema from the customer. We cannot load Schema into InDesign since it does not support. The user tend to make many mistakes in XML in InDesign and unable to validate within InDesign. Currently, we validate XML against schema outside InDesign rather than within InDesign like DTD.

    Great help to users if Schema is supports to Load in InDesign. This would help many users to maintain XML integrity within InDesign well and save lot of time to the users.

20. Cannot paste grouped object into graphic cell - when could previously.

    Adobe InDesign CC, 2017.1 Release
    Version 12.1.0.56 x 64 build

    I used to be able to paste a grouped object (for example, an image with a bit of text overlayed on it) into a graphic cell in a table. Currently this is not working - I can put a regular image (just a linked image) into a graphic cell, but as soon as I try to "paste into" a copied grouped object, it does not even offer paste into as an option.

    This issue is present in tables used by multiple users in different files - not a bug in a single file.
