1. Photoshop Layers Not Displaying or Exporting Correctly from InDesign 2024

   Using InDesign 19.3 and placing (via link) a layered PSD into layout, preferred layer visibility (as spec'd in import options) is failing.

   Layer is part of a Group in Photoshop; part of the group is visible, part isn't (when viewed in InDesign).

   It isn't just a preview issue, because if I export a PDF from ID, the layers aren't visible in the PDF either.

   For now, my workaround is to use an earlier (2023) version of InDesign. The layers in my linked PSD preview and export correctly using the earlier version.

   I've tried recreating the missing elements (rules) in Photoshop (2024) but the problem persists.

   Any insights would be much appreciated.

4. Setting defaults for anchored objects doesn't work

   I'd really like to be able to set defaults for how an anchored object attaches to the text when I drag to anchor it. Right now it attaches from the bottom right. I'd like to be able to set that to fit my needs.

5. Graphic was exported and printed as gray "fast display" placeholder

   I exported a book and checked that with preflight for missing linked images and correct printing resolutions. everything came back ok. however one picture was not correctly linked and exported as the gray placeholder usually seen when "fast display" is enabled.

   Apparently, the resolution of the gray placeholder is high enough as not to trigger the "too low res"-preflight setting of the printer. They did flag a different picture, which i replaced, but this square was undetected.

   The image was "corrected" by relinking it, even though the linked path was correct and it did not show up in the linkpanel as faulty/missing.

   I can't recreate the issue, so i don't know why the picture (even though it was linked correctly) did not show up or trigger any preflight settings.

6. cant drag object

   In the middle of working on a document and suddenly can't drag or duplicate objects (alt - drag).

   Indesign is fully up to date. Windows 11.

   I am so freaking sick of all of these bugs. I pay enough for these programs to not cause me so much wasted time. I'm so done. Anyone have a good alternative to Adobe that they like?

   I see some old posts about people having this issue with Photoshop open. I do not have Photoshop open and haven't used it all day.

8. QR code

   We created business cards for 20 of our employees with a QR-code showing their contact details.
   On more than half of these, the QR-code works correctly on Android but says "no usable data found" on iPhone.

9. InDesign Element changed/defective GREP-Styles after adding it to the cc library

   Indd Version 2022, 17.2.1

   The following Bug occurs: I created an Indd Element with assigend object- and paragraph styles using GREP-styles. If I copy that Element from document to document, it will work just fine. Once I add it to the cc library, the GREP-Styles become defective, even though nothing was changed.
   The defective Styles then stay within that one element.

   futhermore, any object styles using auto-sizing are deformed when placing them from the library.

   the screenshot with the superscript 1 is correct, once in libraries, the 1 won't be superscript anymore.

   The torn yellow box is what happens once i place the element from libraries.

   This is very inconvenient considering we use these assets in the thousands every day.

10. Can't place jpgs at actual size.

    It would be amazing if you could place jpgs at actual size instead of InDesign placing them at sizes that are apparently (based on resolution?)
    
    If I have an 5 inch square jpg file, the resolution should not have anything to do with what size it places at. If it is 5x5 and 300 dpi, and I place it in InDesign, it should be 5x5. If I have a 5x5 jpeg that is 50 dpi, and I place it in InDesign, it should also be 5x5 after placing. I shouldn't have to SCALE something I place to get it to be it's original size. This would be a huge improvement if you could do this.

11. InDesign 19: 'Search for missing links in this folder' not working

    InDesign is not finding other missing links in a folder after reorganisation. All links have to be linked individually – which is much slower than version 18.

    This happened to me after all links were reorganised after packaging, that is, they were moved from the Links folder into other folders.

    When I reverted to using the Links folder, all links were marked as Modified. 'Update all links' command did not work. Links had to be selected in the panel and updated by using the Update links button.

12. heic

    When importing HEIC image files, the orientation of the picture stored in the metadata is being ignored. This is very annoying, since one has to rotate the image manually each time this is imported.

14. QR generated by text variable

    Would be great if you could generate a QR Code from a text variable. Just for automation purposes. For instance on datasheets or brochures, where a single URL is used throughout in text, but also as a QR code on the last page.

16. Display error shows outdated editing status of text and text frames

    1. Version of InDesign:
       18.0 / 18.5 with macOS Monterey / Ventura

    2. Steps to reproduce the issues:
       Not possible, error occurs unpredictable. It seems that the error occurs when using documents with many text frames that are linked across several pages. CPU or GPU does not make a difference.

    3. Expected result:
       Display of the same editing status when toggling between guideline view and preview

    4. Actual result (when error occurs):
       One of the two view variants shows outdated editing status of text and text frames, sometimes guideline view, sometimes preview.

17. Input Options for Place aren't remembered

    When I go to place a page from a pdf into an indesign document, the selection is set to transparent. I uncheck transparent, but I have to do that again each time I place a new page. The crop options don't stay either. Can't this be remembered?

18. Page tool causes layout shifts on parent pages

    When the Page Tool is used to resize parent (master) pages, unwanted shifts of page items may occur. These can occur directly in the document or also after an IDML export. Whereby with the IDML export the order of the sample pages plays a role

    Concrete example: When the right bottom corner of the Page Tool is selected and the page size is changed, a position mismatch occurs on the inherited master page.

    It is expected that on master pages of the same size the position of objects and inherited object is the same.

    This does not occur if the upper left corner of the Page tool is used when resizing.

    You can see this also in the different matixes of the inner coordinate system of the master pages.

    Resize master page in UI – top left corner selected:
    app.activeDocument.masterSpreads[0].pages[0].resolve(AnchorPoint.TOPLEFTANCHOR,CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES)[0];
    › 0.0

    Resize master page in UI – bottom right corner selected:
    app.activeDocument.masterSpreads[0].pages[0].resolve(AnchorPoint.TOPLEFTANCHOR,CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES)[0];
    › 28.3464566929137.48.1889763764252

    After the IDML export, guides are also partially displaced. See attached screenshots. Whereby here also the order of the sample pages in the page panel plays a role, thus:

    Page Panel

    A-Master Page
    B-Master Page

    or

    B-Master Page
    A-Master Page

19. Datamerge QR-code cannot be colored

    When performing a datamerge, the generated QR-codes are black (C0 M0 Y0 K100) and cannot be set to another color prior to merging. This video shows the issue (and complex workaround).

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. set up a datamerge with a qr-code field in data source.
    2. try to color the QR-code any color not black (eg. using Object > Edit QR-Code > Color)
    3. execute datamerge

    Actual result:
    All QR-codes are black.

    Expected result:
    To set the color of the QR-code placeholder the same as a normal QR-code, and for the QR-codes to be colored after the merging.

20. InDesign do not read EXIF metadata on captions from jpeg exported from PS

    Tested on Adobe InDesign 19.0.1 on macOS Ventura

    Steps:

    I save an image on PS as JPEG and preserve the metadata
    I place that image on InDesign.
    The file info panel is showing the metadata
    I configure and generate the caption with the ISO speed
    The caption do not show any info about the ISO speed

    When working with psd or pdf it works fine. When working with JPEG not created from PS or Lightroom works fine.

    I attached an example and screenshots the jpeg
