Overall project file contains different documents
It would be good to have the ability to combine several individual InDesign docs into one project file. So when the project is opened all docs are shown as separate tabs. Quark Express did this with 'Jackets' or something like that. This would tidy up job folders and maybe speed up the 'collect for output' stage if InDesign did them all at once rather than have to do individually with several fonts and images folders

Different layers for each page in a document
Each page in a document can have different layers. When producing artwork for personalised print items (like mailers) it would be good for each version (page) to have it's own variable layers to avoid having lots of layers that could lead to data being omitted if layer turned off

set width of a real gap between columns in a table
Setting a column/cell stroke to "paper" does not make a real gap between columns, when the table is on a colored background.
Please add a "gap width between columns" to your table/cell formatting.

Indesign should be fully compatible with Powerpoint
Clients are demanding more and more presentations made on Powerpoint than reports made in Indesign. Sometimes, even reports made in Powerpoint. Designers like me are spending much more time nowadays on Powerpoint than Indesign.
Adobe will lose those designers.
Indesign must be fully compatible with PowerPoint.

More options to compare fonts
When creating a layout I often like to compare different fonts and see which one best matches the project. I would like feature where you can input text (eg. a title or line of text) and get an overview of that text in different fonts that you have installed. Currently you can only go through the list of fonts via the character panel, but this doesn't offer a lot of flexibility in comparing your options side by side.

Add "insert text at cursor" to Review tools
Share for Review is great - however why was the "insert text" tool left out of the review tools? I do reviews every day and the 3 most important tools are "delete text", "replace text" and "insert text at cursor" - to know exactly where added text should go. It's part of the PDF commenting tools since forever - why was it left out of this Review function? Please add it, we can't offer this solution to our stakeholders without it.

Reposition feedback-box in shared Indesign document
It would be useful if you could change the position of the feedback box so that you could make the order logical. Now sometimes the comments are not in the reading order and that makes it unclear.

Publish Online & Right-Click
I frequently use the feature in InDesign that allows direct online export. However, as an artist and creator, I find it inappropriate that anyone can easily right-click on the artwork and save it as an image. For example, Google Drive doesn't allow viewers to do that. Can InDesign implement a similar restriction?
Password protection isn't good enough; sometimes it doesn't work, and we need to make editors' lives easier. I want full control over my images and don't want anyone to save my images to their desktop so easily. It's true that many images are online, but not all of…

Enable the deletion of button rollover state once it's been created
Once you've created a button AND applied a rollover state, you can't currently delete it. I know you can "hide" it, and I know you can convert the button back to an object, but I want the ability to delete the rollover state once it's been created. Similar to a multi-state object, it would be great if we can delete the rollover state (like you can do with individual states in an MSO).

search
Make the search bar visible when users press CMD+F (or windows alternative).
At the moment, when you click to search text on a document that's shared for review, it seems like the search bar doesn't appear. But in reality it's hidden behind the comments panel. You have to close the comments/preview panels to see it.
This causes a lot of "there's no search bar" comments from users, and we have to specifically tell them now when we share for review "it's hidden. Close this panel".
The search function should always be visible when someone presses CMD+F.

Adobe gentlemen listen to me! I would like to have the possibility that when I export a PDF for printing a certain paragraph style does not
Adobe gentlemen listen to me! I would like to have the possibility that when I export a PDF for printing a certain paragraph style does not come out... it should be a setting inside the paragraph style to tell it with an option do not export... it could be very useful in case I have a catalog with prices and I want to export the PDF without. Thank you

Have a trash can function in Publish Online
If documents are accidentally deleted from Publish Online, they are gone forever, which if done in error, can cause a huge problem. It would be so helpful if deleted documents could be placed in a trash can, even if for only a week or so, to take away the risk of accidental deletion. Thanks
