Wrong translation of “Publish online” UI in Czech language
Please correct wrong translation of "Single" and "Spread". In the latest version of InDesign the translation means "One FIle" and "Extension", crazy, isn't it? Please follow the long established terminology developed in old days when you did ask humans to translate UI items and you did consult it with local experts: the names are correct in InDesign PDF export dialog, so why don't you reuse the correct terminology?
The correct form is "Stránky" and "Dvojstránky".!!! PLEASE stop using robots or Google Translate for new features in InDesign !!!

None of my windows float in when I open Indesign version 15.1.1
The app is running, but none of my windows float in when I open my file.
I can't access any of my tools, pages, or layers... This is the only thing I'm able to see which is only my document. But I can't work without the tools! How can I fix this issue? I already tried restarting my computer, uninstalling and re-installing Indesign 15.1.1 and nothing has worked.1 vote -

"Update Library Item" option missing in context menu of Libraries
I am trying to update a library item. It's a previously created library item that I've made changes to. There used to be a contextual menu item called "Update Library Item" but it's gone.
When resetting the prefences with Shift+Option+Command+Control at the start of InDesign or (for me) uninstalling and reinstalling a certain plugin, that menu item appears again.
One user found out this:
Renamed Adobe Indesign folder in ~/Library/Caches. That did the trick for me !!
For the ultimate test, I put back the "old" Adobe Indesign folder and the issue was back again.Link to the old forum…

Exporting Indd document to PDF > window only partly visible (4K monitor)
When exporting a document via File > Adobe PDF Presets > Export to PDF on a 4K monitor, the window is only partly visible. I cannot change the settings because I only see the bottom part of the window. See Screen shot.

[bug] UI won’t show up although app seems to have launched successfully
macOS Catalina 10.15.5
MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019)Nothing appears when I create a new document or open one. The app seems to be working though because it keeps adding a numeric increment every time I create a new file. InDesign is updated to latest build. Please advise.

BUG - 15.1.1 - Mac/PC - text threads don't display
On both Mac and PC, the 15.1.1 version doesn't display text frame threads.
When I create a new doc, threaded text frames DO show the threads. But when I open pre-existing documents, threads don't show at all. I've confirmed this behavior with a few other people, on both OS platforms. I'm running on Win10/64, [Version 10.0.18363.836]. The Mac users were on very recent OS's.

Jumping to wrong tabs
Hi, when I try to click on the File menu, it keeps jumping to Window instead. That goes for any menu item I try to open. I'm using the 2018 version of InDesign on Windows.
Thanks

Click, click-drag combinations no longer work as they did previously.
Upon upgrading to 15.1.1, on Mac OS 10.14.16 Mojave
-Triple-clicking won't select a whole line, and, yes, I selected "triple-click to select whole line" in preferences.
Double-clicking does won't switch from the object tool to the text tool.
Double-click and drag won't extend the selection.
I didn't find anything in the Mac OS, Wacom, or InDesign prefs that referenced click or click-drag options. Adjusting double-click speed doesn't change this bug.
If these features were disabled to take advantage of the swipe features of Apple mouse and tablet gestures, please add a preference option to use a standard mouse.

FIle extension should NOT be highlighted in the Save window.
FIle extension should NOT be highlighted in the Save window.
This didn't use to happen, but all the adobe apps has started doing this from 2 or 3 updates ago.
PLEASE REVERT. There's no good reason for the file extension to be highlighted.

InDesign Comment Area for Edits and Notes
Is there a note feature in InDesign to add notes for edits? I have always added a text box from a copied email but wonder if their is a sidebar utility so I don't loose the notes as I page scroll. Normally I have 2 screens but I think this feature would be cool as I continue my career in InDesign.

InDesign opens with tiny window
For several recent versions of InDesign, and Windows, including the most recent of both (just updated InD yesterday, and this happened shortly after), I have on rare occasions had InD open as only a tiny box showing only the basic minimize/maximize/close buttons, and a window edge, positioned in the upper left corner. If I click on the maximize button, it goes to maximized, but then cannot grab outer edges to resize the box, and minimizes just goes back to almost nothing. If I then quit InD, USING FILE/QUIT, OR COMMAND-Q, then it will reopen OK. I think, maybe, this is…

save as file name bug
Suddenly, when saving a file, the Mac interface highlights the entire document name AND file extension. The software has never done this, why the annoying change? Designers often save version numbers, so now it's not as quick to hit the right arrow key, change the version # at the end of the file, then save. The new way it highlights the file name doesnt make sense, because nobody would want to affect the file extension when renaming a file.

Books Panel Does Not Operate as a Standard Panel
The Books panel does not operate in the same manner as other, standard panels. When re-positioned, the panel size is changed, and the Workspace is updated or a new workspace is created, the Books panel does not 'remember' the changes that were placed on it. For the user, this is extremely frustrating behavior. The books panel should, at a minimum, remember its position/size in relation to a given workspace.

open a file window
Hi. I'm running on InDesign 15.0.3 on macOS Catalina 10.15.5
I was editing a file when suddenly InDesign crashed. A crash report was submitted and no harm was done. I proceeded to open InDesign and everything seemed fine with one exception. When I go File > Open, the Open a File window color theme does not match the interface color theme I've chosen (which is set to Dark). I tried changing to all the other color themes and it remained the same. Then I went into my OS system preferences and made sure my appearance has Dark chosen for all…
