  1. One language for the app interface, another for the shortkeys

    It would be G R E A T if you could install the english version of InDesign, but use shortcuts for a non english keyboard, since many of the english shortcuts don't work when you use a non english keyboard.

    This is actually a problem in all Adobe apps and not just InDesign.

    Please don't tell me to switch to ENG in Windows 10 since I want to be able to type in swedish...

    And don't tell me to manually go through all shortcuts and change them one by one. I shouldn't have to do that every time I install…

  2. Align operations on selected anchorpoints from different frames

    When selection a series of individual anchorpoints from different frames, I would like to be able to perform operations from the align-window (like distribute centers). Thus making it possible to shape a series of frames in one go. I.e. when you would want an angled side to a series of frames.

  3. Publish online

    Hello. It would be good if when publishing online the filename of the current open file is on the tittle by default instead of the last uplodaded file. (windows 10)

    Thank you

  4. Integrated controls for styles

    I think it would be more intuitive to integrate styles in with the manual controls they go with, especially for character and paragraph styles, like so:
    -slide the panel left to see the current settings and make manual changes, slide the panel right to switch to a new style.
    -When you look at the manual controls, every element has an icon to show that it is matching a style, and another icon shows if an override is applied.
    -click an override icon to remove that specific override

  5. Changes to the review tools

    First, I'm using ID 15.1.3 and I cannot upgrade at this time. Not sure how much of these ideas would be resolved by upgrading.
    -Is it possible to make pins and pencil lines transparent? There are two ways I can think of: a percentage slider just like alpha control in color settings, or a three point switch: hide/semisolid/solid. Either way I would like to see this as a control for each comment so you can choose it individually. Right now the pin or pencil line blocks the art somewhat, which is where the transparency would be handy.
    -Right now, you…

  7. Revert to original, efficient New Document dialogue box.

    An option to revert to the old, more compact and efficient "New Document" window.

    There are 8,342 awesome ideas of additions and updates for InDesign on this site, yet someone took the time to make this new interface... If you have used InDesign for more than 1 day you don't need this. It is huge, and inefficient. There used to be an option to revert to this style but it is gone now.

    Efficiency is KING in InDesign. If we wanted a clunky, chunky UI we could use a Microsoft product ;-)

    Thanks!

  8. Undo Delete or "Trash Folder" in Online Published Dashboard

    We were so happy to find adobe online publishing so that in these times we can reach our customers digitally. But i am sad to see that the options and features are very limited. Today it happened that i accidentally deleted a published document, that was also sent to my 6000 customers per newsletter. After a very long chat with CS, i was told to write here. Nothing can be done, i cant reactived to undo my deleted document.

  9. A shortcut / button that automatically expands your selected shape to fill the page

    I find myself drawing many rectangles a day to create backgrounds for a document. It's obviously no problem at all, but seems the process could be sped up if I could just use a shortcut that automatically resizes a selected shape to fill the page, and it would also remove the potential for error if you haven't quite lined up the rectange correctly. Maybe there's already a solution for this?

  10. Video player controls in publish online too small when starting retina document

    When starting a document in bigger dimension (for example iPad retina) the controls of the viewer are very small. They are bigger when started as iPad1024x768. Shouldn't the controllers be based on percentages of the width of the screen?

  11. Exporting text from unchained boxes

    The ability to export selected unchained text boxes into ONE text file, by selecting them and then exporting, rather than having to export multiple boxes into multiple files, and then collating them. And have them appear in order.
    This would very useful when exporting text from print to the web, being able to extract an entire story in one hit, or when extracting, for example, multiple quote boxes
    At the moment one has to export an entire page and it just turns into a mush

  14. File handling behaviour

    I would like indesign to First, look in its resident (root) folder for fonts and links, then look in subfolders (ie packed folders "fonts" & "Links") and only then, if it cannot locate them, go looking in the folders defined as "original links folder" or "most recent links folder".
    I would like this to apply to both opening a file and to saving the file and exporting files (pdf etc)
    and if this cannot be a default behavior, then I'l **** it to be an optional behavior.

    Why?
    because when I package a file I want the indesign file to…

  15. Make Scripts Embeddable into InDesign Documents

    It would be great, scripts could be embedded into InDesign documents, so any user working with the document could execute the embedded script for this document.

    These embedded scripts show up in the scripts panel in their own area, next to the other areas "application", "user", "community" –> "embedded"..

    The script itself should optionally be protectable with a password and be saved in JSBIN format, so it’s executable, but could not be changed or extracted by the user.

  16. Is Interactive Video Wall Display Shaping a New Future?

    If anyone said that the majority of a person’s day time will be spent in front of a screen, then no one would have believed that. Presently, an average human spends almost half of their awake time in front of some kind of screen; be it in their home or office.

    No doubt, the quality and the projection of these screens have improved drastically. Starting from TFT screens to AMOLED or even foldable screens, technology has helped in changing how we look at the screen.

    Recently, there has been a new breakthrough in video wall display: The Laser Phosphor Display…

  17. Picture form field for mac and overapping with another field

    It is also an absolute concern of mine that you can also create image form fields, even if there is a logo on top of them, for example. Currently it is only possible (and only via windows) to create an image field without, for example, a bar with a font or a logo overlapping.

  19. Stroke cap and paragraph rule styles

    It would be incredibly useful to have the option for more control over the end cap in stroke styles/paragraph rules. For example, in Illustrator there is the option to use a softened end cap as opposed to a straight cut off, but InDesign only has a straight edge option, making it difficult to build an elegant line style without importing it as a graphic (this feature is sorely lacking in pursuits such as book design). The stock line styles feel garish or clunky and it would be oh-so-nice to be able to edit these or have more options to choose…

  20. Archivo físico además de publicación online.

    Además del link que se obtiene en "publish online" muchos clientes quieren archivo físico animado e interactivo. Actualmente sólo se puede publicar mediante link o app, y el pdf está muy limitado para animaciones ¿Adobe, de lleno en la era digital y no se puede crear archivo "físico" animado e interactivo desde Indesign?. El EPUB da muchos problemas así que no es válido.
