Article panel should help in showing items as ‘marked’
Like there is an option for xml structure to show colors of marked frames there should be a similar option for frames and stories that are already present in the article panel.
If MadeToTag can do it, Adobe should be able too.1 vote -
Syncing Redlines from Adobe Asset Cloud to InDesign
Syncing Redlines from Adobe Asset Cloud to InDesign - Noticing that the asset cloud link has the ability to redline and comment, but the redlines do not come over on the InDesign side with the asset link as they do when you import Adobe comments/redlines. This feature would be hugeeee for our industry to have. Also, using the asset link feature live has crashed indesign a couple times.

Extract the Pixel's or Edge's X & Y coordinates of the Shapes or lines used in Indesign pages to a Geometry XML file/CSV /Excel/Text file.
We are trying to figure out a method to extract the X & Y coordinates in a excel or CSV file or any kind of report file, from a given page partitioned with straight horizontal and vertical lines to forming square and rectangular blocks/shapes from it. Now, we want to extract the dimensions of the shapes (squares and rectangles). If there is any way we could extract the pixels (X & Y coordinates of the edges) shown in screenshot considering the edges of the page main boundary (line in pink) as well as inner blocks/boxes formed from the lines (blue lines) ?

Test internal page hyperlinks in presentation mode
I don't know if this can even be possible, but it would be great to be able to test internal page hyperlinks in presentation mode (command + W), so that I don't have to export the PDF every time to test, rectify and test again. It will be especially useful for interactive PDFs with 100+ pages.
Thank you!

Unified Windows 11 User Interface
I think it is of paramount importance that InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop should better integrate with Windows 11's Dark/Light mode. Why is still that the menus and menu options are still white even with the application set to the darkest mode? It is a horrible design inconsistency.

AI feature: create a layout from some example images
It would be great if InDesign could create multi-page layouts from a few example images. For example, you've already designed a page, and it would take that and use the pattern & style of it to make more pages and layout variants in the same style. Or you can upload a reference picture to do the same.

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 alternate layouts for different social media platforms, however I can't duplicate the pages with alternate layouts already setup, I either have to start from scratch each alternate layout, Create a document with excess pages linked to alternate layout that I can be deleted if not required, or have multiple individual documents for one project for different mock-ups

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 the "Type:" drop-down, with an entry field for the number of pages to add or subtract from the automatic entry.
I would see this operating as selecting "Current Page +/-" from the "Type:" drop-down in the "New Page Reference" dialog, and then typing the desired offset ("1" in my case) into a "number of pages" field.

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...

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.

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 layout, and I need the content to be inline where the user will need to see the sub-procedure when they perform the actions.This may be similar/same as: https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601021-adobe-indesign-feature-requests/suggestions/32420425-enable-copy-paste-of-text-text-frames-without-br

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.
