rotate canvas in InDesign
It would be great in the next version on InDesign if they included a rotate canvas function like in Photoshop. I use that function so much when I need the right angle to do my work.

Keep things in the grey area from moving
When I put objects in the grey area of the workspace or use a guidelines across a spread and then add pages before it all moves. There is a reason that i've put guidelines on a certain page and objects next to a certain page, I might need them again and I certainly don't want them to be moved all over the place whenever i add pages.

Arrange Documents icon
The "Arrange Documents" icon in the Title bar is missing, I would love to have it back. It was extremely helpful. Now it wastes time to switch that from the Menu...

Custom Signature Sizes
We desperately need to be able to create custom signature sizes for 2-up Perfect Bound booklets. Right now the only options are 4, 8, 12, 16, and 32, which is extremely limiting. Adding blank pages to fill out extra signatures is a garbage work around leading to an unprofessional product.

Expand the InDesign “book” feature?
I’ve been indexing newsletters for a historical society for years. (37 volumes/years) There are 65 InDesign files in the book. Some files are by individual issue and I’ve compressed some files for each issue year. When I compile the index, several page numbers have dropped out and a few items have dropped too. Once I have the index file saved and try to exit, the software freezes. Is there any way of helping me?

Rules for master page
It would be great to have rules for master page. For example if I have a template for a product data sheet with a master pager for the first page, a master page for content and a master page for the last page it would be great for InDesign to automatically apply the desired master page to the proper pages. With this option the template would be easier and faster to use

Data merge to a formatted table for multiple catalog listing on one page in a single table.
I'm revising on a 180 page catalog that was originally created page by page, row by row with InDesign. The process was incredibly tedious and the person doing it eventually quit due to all the stress that it caused her. I would like to revise this catalog using data merge from .csv files but as you can see from the attached file some actual layout capabilities are needed and not all tables are consistent. There are also some cells in tables that need to be merged because they contain duplicate information. So far InDesign as only been able to create…

Revert back to exact screen placement after Screen Preview (shift+w)
When pressing escape after screen preview, the view resettles on the middle of the page (but keeps the zoom level) rather than resettling where you were working. This makes flipping between normal and screen preview mode a bit less seamless, as you have to keep scrolling back to the part you were working on after previewing.

Master Page View - Toggle On/Off
When on any document page (not a master page), add the ability to toggle the view of master page items on and off. Would be very helpful to view master page elements vs non-master page elements.

allow pasting from left page to right page in master- exactly the same location
Every time I make a new document- my masters can be complex but the left and right side of the same master are a pain to make exactly the same.
So either make copy and paste work better in masters or add a feature that allows left and right sides to be lined up the same.
I want to be able to set all my parts and then set guides on the left side—
and then copy them ALL- guides, date, page numbers, doc name and other items to EXACTLY paste in the right hand side.
Right now Paste In…1 vote -
Show Page Dimensions permanently in Document Window
With more than one tool to change general/individual page sizes, keeping an eye on these numbers is crucial.
Please make page dimensions visible at all time – e.g. in the slug/pasteboard area next to every page or in the Pages thumbnails, at least as some kind of tooltip or popup info. This behavior could be activated with a preferences checkbox. Thanks.

reorder bookmarks
Let's say we have a document 40 pages long. The usefulness of all 40 pages vary because of end-user knowledge.
As such,
Master users will preferably only read 5 out of those 40 pages.
Experienced will read 15 pages
Intermediates 30 pages
First time users 40 pages.Now this already is possible with a plug-in, but I fail to understand why Adobe don't see plug-ins as a clear sign that users want / need the functionality.
Ok, what would be great is being able to script a user end button that calls the sort bookmarks function. The PDF would already…

Have ruler bar be on the right, too, to drag out guides when zoomed in on right side of doc etc.

Thank for new versions - but the scroll button the is a dull grey atop another shade of grey is not visible enough for quick work -
i have worked as a designer for many years - please consider colour and contrast in the scroll feature for pages. As i try to proof a manuscript against another file, i must constantly search for the scroll tab in order to read more text - even a lighter shade of grey or something complementary would help the worker.
thanks
