Footnotes disappears
Some footnotes disappeared without reason then appeared back when I changed something in the linked paragraph. InDesign didn't display any kind of warning about this problem.
4 votesHi,
Part of this issue was fixed with the latest release of InDesign 15.0.1For all new files created with ID 15.0.1 the issue will not come. For older files opened in ID 15.0.1, you will have to resize, move or do some text editing operation to make the footnote appear
In case you are still facing the issue in new files created post ID 15.0.0 , please share a sample file
Thanks

Exported text missing Endnotes
Exported text missing Endnotes
We work with Footnotes and Endnotes a lot. And when everything is OK, but after going in print, the text is exported so that the autor can edit it for a next release (Law text and commented law so it changes often). I was very happy when InDesign did begin to work with Endnotes but ... it does not export them. Not even in Version 15.0.1. Footnotes are exported, Endnotes are missing. This is a big bug or an even bigger oversight.4 votes -

Inline vector graphics pixelate while typing in high quality display performance mode
InDesign 14.0.2 on Windows 10
1) Set display performance to high quality
2) Paste an EPS or PDF into a text frame as an inline graphic. It should render crisply as you'd expect in high quality mode..
3) Start typing in the text frame that contains the inline graphic. The inline graphic pixelates.
4) Click out of the text frame or stop typing for ~10 seconds. The graphic returns to its unpixelated, high-quality state.Context: we are upgrading 100 users from InDesign 2014 to InDesign 2019. This worked perfectly well without any pixelation or lag in InDesign 2014, but is…

eyedropper tool
Using the eyedropper tool to select a color from the desired text is not working properly. Only strokes are painted with the desired color, not the text. It should like Illustrator's eyedropper tool which works perfectly. I have to use Illustrator's eyedropper tool to get the desired results I want.
4 votesHi,
Please can you confirm if the “Character Settings” are turned on in the Eyedropper options?
you can double click the eyedropper tool to check the eyedropper optionsThanks

Keyboard shortcuts to change case not working on Windows
Keyboard shortcuts to change case of lines of text is no longer working. Apart from Alt-T to get up the text menu, I'm now having to use the mouse to select the further options to change to Title case. The sequence Alt-T-E-T, no longer works. As I frequently have many entries which need unifying each time I use it, this once useful feature is sorely missing. Please can you fix it Adobe?

space before/after paragraph is suddenly not working
when i try to add space before or after a paragraph, it shows up in the tools panel and in style sheets as being there, but it is not reflected in the actual text.
indesign cc 14.0.1
4 votesIn your example, the paragraph ‘Introduction: My Life…’ and ‘Update’ use the same Paragraph Style and the setting ‘Space Between Paragraphs Using Same Style’ is set to 0p0. That’s why the Space After setting of 1p4 is having no effect.
To make it to work, change the ‘Space Between…’ back to its default setting of ‘Ignore’.
Hope this helps.Adobe InDesign team

Text becoming conditional
If I have conditional text in which the condition include the paragraph mark, when I re-open the document, the following paragraph sometimes has the condition applied to it, even though it was unconditional before. This is a repeatable problem.

Problem with Bookmarks that contain special characters
I have a document with bookmarks that contain phrases with words containing special characters (specifically Italian accents, for example: L’ubiquità della collaborazione)
Then I have buttons at the top of the document. Each button links to a specific bookmark. If the bookmarks contain this characters/accents, the button don't work.
So the buttons only work when linking to bookmarks not contain special characters/accents.Solved the problem by changing the procedure I used to create bookmarks:
This is what WON'T WORK:
- highlighting all the text and then create a bookmark.
Pro: The bookmarks are added automatically with all the sentence that…4 votes -
Table header is missing after copy/paste
When I copy/paste a table, the header line is missing. My workaround is to change the height of the next line, then the header line appears. Then I change the height back to the actual height.

Auto-sizing text frames not working
When I try to auto-size a text box in "Text Frame Options," nothing happens. I generally click on the text box, open the text frame options panel with command-B and click on the auto-size tab. Once inside that panel, I attempt to auto-size. Nothing is grayed out so it appears as if it would work, but when I click on "width only" (or any other option), nothing happens and it just stays on the original selection. And I can't seem to find a work around either.

Text Frame Otpion
Text hops around in text box from top to bottom when moving text frame. I have seen a lot people online having the same issue. Only work around, and it's just that a work around not a fix, every time you place text you have to go to Object>Text Frame Options>Baseline Option and click "Use Custom Baseline Grid". Doing this every single time I place text is getting rather tedious. Just encountered bug today, restarted both indesign and imac, the bug stayed. About to re-install indesign all together.
