1. Option to recognise different paragraph styles as the really part of the same style

   When creating multi-level lists you need to use different paragraph styles. This creates a problem where the spacing you want at the end of the whole list and the start of a new paragraph is applied when you are in the middle of different levels of the list.
   I am thinking a little checkbox next to the 'Based on' paragraph style section in the 'General' tab of the paragraph style settings window that allows you to link the new style as a child of the top-level style.
   This way, those end of paragraph spacings won't be applied to the child (or sub-level) styles...

2. 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 since that's already incorporating page numbering and styling in blanket form for all documents included. Thanks for considering!

3. Provide a linking feature to duplicate text from one frame into others

   It would be highly valuable to be able to define a parent text frame and then link that frame to other frames in a layout that duplicates the text in that frame.

   This would be similar to the way that text links in alternate layouts work, but the styles to the linked (child?) frames are allowed to be independent of the parent.

   Trying to use text variables for this kind of duplication runs into the multi-line issue. Copying linked frames from alternate layouts will result in the parent style of the linked text to overrun any changes made to the child.

   An example use for this would be printed tab layouts, where the from one frame in the layout typically appears on the tab front, tab back, and back of the tab. Having these frames linked to automatically refresh the only text of the parent while maintaining the unique styles required by their placement would be an elegant solution.

   Also, this would provide a unique opportunity to make more graphical use of text in reliably repeatable ways, as one frame could control text in many frames, styled, arranged and layered in more artist ways, but still editable with little effort.

4. Don't automatically change view/zoom when editing layer visibility of linked graphics

   Editing the layer visibility of a linked graphic in InDesign causes the zoom level to be automatically adjusted to fit-to-page. This makes it difficult to see the preview image for small graphics that may be hard to see at the full page zoom level.

   If any automatic zoom adjustment is to be made at all (which it should not) it should be to fit the graphic to the window so you can see what you are doing.

6. I would like to be able to download/print a list of all linked files with their full pathways.

   I would like to be able to download/print a list of all linked files with their full pathways. Currently if you highlight all the files on the links panel, then right click, then choose Copy Info, you get a complete list of files, but not the full path.

   Having the full path will help me identify when and how the image was created, what category the image falls into, and where the original artwork is located in the warehouse.

7. Share for Review

   I was excited to see the Share for Review feature roll-out in the newest June 2020 update. However, I have already experienced issues.
   1. It only exported one page in my document.
   2. I 'invited' members, but when they got the link, it prompted them to enter a password (that I never set and don't want to set).

   I work with a lot of non-technical savvy folks who just need the ability to see my work and comment without the need to log in or create an Adobe ID. Forcing them to do this will alienate users (our clients) and will in return ask us to go back to sending emails.

8. Cache remote/server images on local drive for high quality display preview

   Yesterday I was working on a document from another office so the server wasn't in the building. I was working on graphics that required hi-res display so I could use them as a guide, but because they were all on the server the performance was abysmal. I realised after a while what the problem was, copied them to my local hard drive and re-linked so everything was much faster.

   InDesign should be able to do this automatically: when a large image is not on the local drive, a copy of it could live in a cache somewhere to be used to generate the hi-res previews. If the server image changes, the local copy can simply be refreshed. It would greatly speed things up and avoid having to maintain and link to different sets of images.

9. More options for packaged files.

   Here is an idea that I would think is relatively easy to implement, but would be a great relief to many of us.

   So, I packe and indesign file and it creates a copy, an idml-file, a pdf and "sucks in" all links and fonts to a neat folder. Indesign operates under the assumption that this is the very last thing you do, but often I do this midway to secure everything, or to move to another computer etc etc. Or i retuurn to a finnished project a year later as the client wants some updates.

   I would love the following:

   • an option to automatically close the open document and open the newly packaged document (so you dont carry on working in the old doc)

   • a feature called Update Package: indesign resaves the doc, scans it to suck in new images and fonts, and the option to delete those files not longer in use.

   That is all, thanks!

10. Relink already placed images with new images

    When I tried to relink an already placed JPG in my InDesign CC 2019 file with a larger version of the same graphic with another file name, the Links panel showed the new file name and the new graphic size, but the placed image in my InDesign file remained the same.

    For example, the original graphic was 1" wide and the new graphic was 3" wide. When I relinked the 1" graphic to the 3" graphic file, the image in my InDesign file still showed the graphic as 1" wide even though the Link Info showed the new file name and the new graphic size.

    This means that I have to re-place the entire image and redo all of the "effects" connected to that image, which is a lot of work in a book with many images!

11. Native AI support.

    Using links within AI to keep source files small is useless if INDD is a part of the workflow because INDD will not place AI files unless PDF compatibility is turned on. Turning on PDF compatibility in AI when saving embeds all links so linking files instead of embedding them makes no difference.

    Please make INDD able to place AI files that have not been saved with PDF compatibility turned on.

13. Change ID's file locating from absolute addresses to relative

    When I change the name of my project folder, housing all of my ID and art/font folders, InDesign stops linking to the art folder. This is annoying. Is this happening because my art files are in a folder named something other than Links?

14. Go to Source of Color

    I would like to go to objects linked to a particular swatch; similar to how you list objects in the Links panel and go to them with the GoTo icon at the bottom. Might be too lengthy to list connected type, but would come in handy for vector objects.

15. Document info in Indesign hyperlinks

    I am implementing a sort of voting system for articles in a magazine (readers can vote wether or not they like an article). This means I have to implement 3 (more if I want a more detailed system) links per article. It would be handy to be able to use document info in the links so I can use this as parameters. Things like "Filename" "Pagenumber" "Section name" would really make this process a lot easier. I could create one set of links with these "parameters" and copy it to any section/Page/document and none of the links would have to be adjusted. At this moment my links look like "https://example.com/votingpage.php?document=Filename&Page=pagenumber&Article=ArticleID&Score=1" and this has to manually adjusted for every item ... and this 3 times (scores vary from -1 to 1 for 3 possible scores). This process could be much easier with document-parameters that can be used in hyperlinks.

17. Checkbox to change style of linked object

    I would like to use/export interactive PDF, which would allow user to check the checkbox next to object. Upon checking, the object hidden style would become visible.

    For example: I have PDF with multiple images of cars. When I check the checkbox near the image of car, that image will be overlayed with green transparent effect to show this car has been selected.

    I would like to have this feature available for my collection overview and to see the visual feedback of all collected objects would be satisfying for me.

20. Hej Jag råkade ut för ett problem vid packning för tryck.

    När jag packade en bok med 300 bilder för tryck hämtade InDesign bildfiler från olika bildmappar och samlade till en Link-mapp.

    Problemet blev när två bilder från två olika fotografer hade samma namn eg. sifferkod (IMG3061). Då lade InDesign till suffixet _1 så att den andra bilden döptes till (IMG30611). När detta gjordes gavs ingen varning att det skedde. Därför blev resultatet att i den efterföljande tryckfils-processen länkades bildfilen (IMG3061) upp på två ställen.
    Så därför bör Adobe lägga upp en varning att den hämtat två bilder med samma namn och fråga om det stämmer. Jmf när man manuellt kopierar bilder från olika mappar till en gemensam i MacOS som då varnar : "Ett objekt med namnet *** finns redan på den här platsen. Vill du ersätta ..."

    mvh
