  1. Add additional alternate layouts to document

    The idea would require InDesign treats alternate layouts like normal Pages in a document so when I duplicate the page it creates all the additional alternate layouts for the new page.

    The links for the new Alternate pages would not link to the original page it was copied from, but the links across the new alternate page will still be linked.

    It would also allow you to move the pages up and down the document and keep all the alternate layouts together.

    This would make alternate layouts much more usable.

    I currently have a template setup with a range of…

  5. Enable an index entry that's "Current Page" plus or minus "n" page.

    I'm currently in a situation where I have multiple tables in a book, and each table bridges across its spread. The index entry I want to make is on the right-hand (recto) page but, because the upper-left corner of the text frame containing the table is on the preceding left-hand page, the index entry takes the number of that preceding page, not the correct right-hand page.

    In practice, this means I have to go back and manually change the index entry page number to one page higher - for every single entry.

    Implementing this would just require another option for…

  6. Keep workspace window details expanded/open when switching to another program

    When I open the details for a specific workspace window, and whilst doing this, I switch to any other program on my computer (specifically on another screen), that window closes until I toggle back into InDesign.

    There are many times where I need to reference that information, whilst accessing another program, and this proves obstructive.

    For example: I expand links window to see a link's path which, for one reason or another, I need to find manually on my computer... those details will immediately disappear when I switch to my finder to search my computer...

  7. Add Color Guide panel as in Illustrator

    Illustrator has the most broad, useful and handy tools to work with color! Add all these to InDesign so we could work with color inside one application with no need to go to Illustrator for choosing shades! Please!

  9. Paste items on multiple layers at once

    It would really speed up my workflow if I had the option of selecting a number of layers and be able to ‘Past in place’ on all of them at the same time. I often have to change country ratings (esp. PEGI) on my projects and it would be great if I could select 7-8 layers at a time and switch them out together. Clients also require third-party logos and legal lines to be added and it would really speed up my routines.

  10. Linked text frames inside text threads keep links

    When a linked text frame is placed on the page, it updates its contents when the parent linked text frame changes. But if one copies that text frame and pastes it inside a text thread, it appears to have a link icon, but the link is actually broken and will not update with the parent text any more.
    I am trying to use this to have a callout box for a construction procedure that is duplicated is several places in my document. I want them to be inline of my text as other instruction steps will change, and reflow the…

  13. Please enable pinch zoom in and zoom out using a touchpad on Window 10 in Adobe InDesign 2024

    My Surface laptop does not enable me to pinch zoom in and zoom out using a touchpad on Window 10 in Adobe InDesign. I was previously using a mac with a magic trackpad and had no issues zooming in and out in Adobe programs. I realize I can use work-arounds like CTRL + / -, but this takes more time and I have less control.

  14. Group/Organize Parent Pages

    It would be very helpful for larger documents if I had the ability to group/organize the parent pages in their panel. I am currently working on an urban planning document where each section of the master plan (parks, housing, wastewater, etc...) has a different colored footer and chapter page, so I have 8 different footer parent pages and 8 different chapter pages, on top of the 10 or so general layout parent pages I create for our urban planners to use as templates. Consequently, navigating the parents panel requires a LOT of scrolling. If I could just group all my…

  15. Set Solidity of Spot colors

    We have HP Indigo's that can print white ink. For example, printing white ink on a golden paper, it looks great, and if you have a picture, just slab some white ink below it and it looks good.

    However in InDesign, if you set the colors accordingly (Paper color to gold, and add a white spot color), and you enable overprint preview, the white ink just disappears. This means, we're desining with paper set to white and white ink set to Cyan to see what we're doing. Tbh we'd like to see what we'll eventually get.

    We need the ability…

  16. table accessibility

    InDesign to PDF - Table Accessibility. Please add a way to scope and add an ID to table heading cells. Add a way to then associate table headers to data cells. Ensure that the table elements are properly exported to PDF tags. No table tags are available to be mapped to any InDesign style using Export Tags.

  20. Cloning à la Illustrator Repeat or Symbol Tool for x-up Printing?

    I've quickly grown to love Illustrator's Repeat feature, especially the ability to edit any instance of the repeated object. A feature akin to this for InDesign, or a "Live Repeat"/"Clone" would be a massive improvement for x-up layout!
