To Adobe
First thank you for all the excellent programs. The latest feature that has excited me is "Publish Online" in In Design. Here, everyone - especially Apple's unreasonable blockages - is removed.
Especially the blocking of iFrame that is the prerequisite for opening youtube.However, a very crucial feature is missing in InDesign / Publish Online. You can not use a membership function (as far as I know), such as Paid Memberships Pro in WordPress, and it is crucial that, for example, as a producer of educational materials, I can get a necessary earnings.

Threaded Text Overflow between Documents
I often work on publications 500-1,500+ pages in length, which requires me to use several documents, threading text full of graphics in each document. I cannot contain everything in one document (too large, will crash, even though all graphics are linked rather than embedded). If there was a way to automatically allow text to overflow into new documents after a set amount of pages per document, that would be amazing. It would save me tons of time when manipulating content and then aligning before preflight. You could even keep it to where this feature only works if used in Book…

Selectable Document Font Folder
I've been waiting for a long time for the Document-font folder to be out of sync with the Indesign document. One should be able to determine the place itself.
If I have many Indesign Docs (in campaigns sometimes several hundred) I have to either install the fonts or just in any folder where an Indesign Doc is located in a document font folder.3 votes -

Dual Screen Modal Support
Dual Screen Modal Support.
It's frustrating that apps that are so frequently updated miss the blindingly obvious.
How about real dual screen support for your modal UI.
This is the case across Photoshop and Indesign (most likely, several other products).
In this screen capture - the cursor is selected on 'tint' on a second monitor (right hand side) slide lever is on a different monitor, on the left.
Pretty frustrating, what's the point of having dual monitors, if your software doesn't support such a basic fundamental.
Regards, Paul.

Add feature to Buttons and Forms
In the Text Field, if there could be an option for auto scalable type, which would automatically scale while writing in a interactive PDF. This would allow the writer to write without exceeding the set text field, which could later be printed instead of hidden when printed, when the scrollable option is selected. The current options are set, scrollable or set font size. It would create a more dynamic set text field.
Also a prompt description in the text field which disappears when writing.3 votes -

Please, please turn off the automatic hyphenation in a document. This hyphenates all words at the end of all lines.
Please turn off automatic hyphenation. I publish in other languages in which any hyphenation must be manually inserted.
At the moment the automatic hyphenation places a hyphen at the end of nearly every line. This totally destroys the readability of the language.
I know that you can untick the box for every style in every chapter, but this adds a burden-and time- to the task.

When you copy/paste a frame from one INDD to another INDD, it doesn't keep the "vertical justification setting."
When you copy/paste a frame from one INDD to another INDD, it doesn't keep the "vertical justification setting."
My idea is that when you do the above action, it retains the same vertical justification setting. Unless - is there a way to turn this on already?

Find/replace objects according to their X/Y coordinates
Dealing with multiple InDesign books comprising thousands of pages, I would need to find all objects located at (or, preferably, within) certain X/Y coordinates, so as to automatically reposition them. You've made halfway to this in CC2018, implementing the size properties in the find/replace dialog box.

Illustrations should be movable anyway
Re: Images Anchored
Huge problem and fault of Indesign is the anchor feature.
The layout of anchored Illustrations can NOT be moved around freely on the page it is anchored on. If you try to move the graphic around ANYWAY on the page or the before it or the next page, the text is OBSCURED OR DESTROYED —the text is underneath the graphic. If you use the "inline" function the result is the same. The ability to move the "anchored" graphic anyway is very LIMITED. The TEXT should re-position itself around the image wherever it is moved.
Lets update the…

Add "Creative Cloud Files" Tab to "New Document" Window
Create a TAB for "CC Files" within the "New Document" window.
When you open InDesign you can select to open a file from CC Files. I have a lot of saved templates so this is a great feature.
However — once I have a file already open, I cannot easily load another template from my CC Files, unless I hunt it down in finder. This would save me a lot of time if I could load them from the New Doc window
GENIOUS.
Thanks

Bug: Import XML with tagged cells
Indesign CC 2018 crashes when importing XML with a tag mapped to a cell-style. This problem does not exist in Indesign CC 2017.

Step and Repeat "+" and "-" values entered simultaneously
It would great to have a Step and Repeat option that would allow duplication of an item in positive and negative directions simultaneously. It would be especially helpful in the placement of guides where, if you drew a center point guide, you can step and repeat guides outward from that guide (say 1.5" to the left and right) to allow in visually placed items that aren't centered in the container boxes.

Procentual increasing of font size
When a text box has multiple text sizes and you want to increase all the sizes, it would be great to be able to do that with for example procentual increasing.

Feature to update links of placed InDesign documents
I often place multiple InDesign documents containing links into another one to create an overview of assets for our clients. This way I can jump directly to a specific document and make changes.
But if I directly modify a link of a linked document, I'm not able to update those remote links in my asset overview.3 votes -
Vertical Alignment (top, middle, bottom) should be in Paragraph Formatting Controls (not hidden in CMD+B)
Vertical Alignment (top, middle, bottom) should be in Paragraph Formatting Controls (not hidden in CMD+B). This looks like a UI/UX grouping oversight. Thank you.

Print Preview rather than a P... or is that a d?
I'm amazed at how complicated it is to be able to print something as simple as front cover and back cover as a spread.
in fact, i have yet to figure that out at all.
Is there a reason why i can't print select pages from a catalog, and see where they will land on a page?
I feel like I'm working in Quark back in 2001. Have we made no progress in in the print dialog box since then?
I'd like to be able to SEE the pages (from selected range) their orientation on select paper stock, and how…
