Opentype + Glyphs UI Menu Preview
The UI for Opentype is extremely difficult and time consuming to use. The entire thing needs to be set up like Illustrator, with one addition: PREVIEW TYPOGRAPHIC FEATURES (especially the stylistic sets).
This UI feature should behave just like the Fonts Menu: When you open the font family menu with text highlighted, each font you hover over previews on your selected text.
This needs to be replicated for Opentype and Glyphs. So once you open the dropdown for stylist sets or glyphs, each style you hover over, will preview in real time on your selected text or in a pop…

Full screen mode while in portrait view on iPhone and other devices
It might just be my olddd iPhone 6 but portrait view always leaves navigation bar and footer bar on screen when viewing.
Now until responsive layouts become a feature (wish), then if we want to create a portrait layout publication/document for viewing on a device, full- screen doesn't happen for me and others. It would nice to be able to enable this, as in landscape view.

Make mini-icons easier to see
I am running InDesign 2017.1 on a 1920x1080 monitor. The toolbar icons are quite small, but still usable, except for the ones dealing with color and stroke (lower left corner of UI). The mini-icons are trouble for old eyes and hands. I have tried changing the Windows text size setting to 125%, which improves the mini-icon situation but bloats the whole UI, reducing the work area. All I really want to do is make the color/stroke jumble easier to navigate and use. Everything else is fine as is.

Stop flashing when changing next, previous page.
When pressing navigation (arrow keys) publishonline is flashing or clearing the page. Please stop that and just display the next page!

Import images linked locally to creative cloud library from within any CC app
Currently if I want to use a new asset that I've downloaded or saved to desktop the process looks like this:
- Navigate to CC desktop app
- Navigate to existing CC library or create a new one
- Drag and drop assets from desktop into library
- Go to InDesign (or whichever app)
- Navigate to appropriate library
- Drag asset from library to working document
What I'd like is:
- Place item from desktop in document
- Select the asset in the Links panel
- Click "import to current library"
- Asset is imported directly to the library and the link is automatically updated to the library version…

No transition effects to assist loading pages with identical backgrounds.
By default Publish online introduces a fade on page load even when there are no transitions applied in InDesign. This interferes when you use multiple pages to spoof the appearance of navigating within a one-page environment.
When I export to PDF the background isn't redrawn so the appearance of the linked page appears smoothly. Publish Online is clunky when loading the next page as it momentarily goes black and then fades-in the page items.
A bit of background .... I've created a page with a number of rollover buttons, then a duplicate of that page which is navigated to (x10)…

Show description text when choosing existing document to update.
The Publish Online feature has been really useful for my company--we create brochures for specific clients or potential clients, and provide them access to the electronic version of the brochure.
Most of our brochures are based on a single template, but are altered slightly to meet the needs of the specific client. We always enter a fairly generic document title in the Document Settings fields of the Publish Your Document Online window, because that title is shown at the bottom of the page when the document is accessed by the end user.
We then use the "Description" window to capture…

Adding interactivity for Windows 10
Interactivity is not yet available for Digital Publishing on Windows 10 OS. Until it does, it would be great if inDesign had a panel where you could write code to create hyperlink and button navigation.

Online publishing and interactivity needs importvments
1- make it responsive so it will fill in the screen
2- add navigation (TOC) on the side
3- better way to mange multiple publications, possibly folders..
4- Adding custom URL, for example: Comapnyname.com/issue 01
5- Allow publishing from another adobe ID, this would be great for teams so the publication isn't tied to one person. Maybe the publishing can be directly in the dashboard, for example: user login into the dash board, select new publication or exciting one, the click publish to get indesign file to be uploaded or opened on the computer and automatically published. this way we…2 votes -
"Go back to a specific page"
"Go back to a specific page" - meaning if I have text links in the file and move from page 10 to page 110, give me an easy way to return to where I came from. In this case, page 10. Like a back button navigating through webpages.

addition of style override menu option
Please provide a menu option to override a style. Going to and from the associated style menu is time consuming and and would be easier if I could at least use keyboard navigation to access a menu option under the type, object or table menu headings to activate it.

Add a setting to make horizontal scrolling / zoom with mouse wheel match operating system
In Windows, holding shift while scrolling scrolls horizontally and holding ctrl while scrolling zooms in / out.
I would like to be able to the same behavior in InDesign so I do not have to consciously change how I navigate documents when using adobe products

LayoutWindow: activePage... also need a displayedPage field
LayoutWindow: activePage... also need a displayedPage field
The field LayoutWindow::activePage does not change when the user navigates to another page until another insertion point is selected. I would like to be able to track the page that is currently displayed.

The ability to flick between pages on imported Indesign files
Self explanatory - The ability to flick between pages on imported Indesign files without having to go to relink then navigate to the file, then to the page you want. A simple forward/back page button next to the link would speed up my workflow immensely.

Find/change return to where you started, like Word
When you're done Find/Replace, InDesign leaves you at the last occurrence, and you have to navigate to where you started. In Word, most of the time the screen returns to where you started, saving you time. Any chance of adding this to InD?

Autocomplete style names typed into styles dropdown in properties window
The new contextual properties window would be much handier if the dropdown window had an autocomplete ability similar to what's currently available in the Quick Apply window. The current implementation doesn't save any time, as you still have to navigate through the various options to find the one you want-- something I find more challenging to do thanks to the additional clutter of the font name/weight/point size being included in the dropdown.

Duplicate and Offset
I would like a way to override the keyboard shortcuts for "Duplicate and Offset." The shortcuts (option + arrow) are all too easy to hit while trying to navigate through text (using similar shortcuts). Many default shortcuts can be changed or deleted under Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts, but this set is not among them. For some reason the Mac OS doesn't permit shortcut changes to InDesign, either!

Drag Edited Images in Lightroom Directly to InDesign which automates Export and Creates Shadow File Folder Structure of Edited Files.
Drag Edited Images in Lightroom Directly to InDesign which automates Export and Creates "Shadow File Folder Structure" of Exported Edited Files. This would allow easy Image Navigation for visually identifying assets from Lightbox environment and directly linking them to INDD files without the cumbersome and redundant step of Exporting and then searching for exported file in FINDER. This is a no brainer for LR IND Integrated workflows! Please prioritize!

Larger Windows for Find & Replace
Support for larger windows in "Find & Replace." The ability to paste big blocks of copy would be a great option. I had a project where I was making multiple identical pages with variable names and years. Then we had edits that were needed on all of the pages. If I could easily navigate within larger "Find & Replace" windows, I could've made those changes in half the time. Instead, I went just before and after each needed change and fixed each edit individually.
