Layer visibility toggle should indicate mixed visibility status of sub layers
InDesign V 16.4, Current Creative Cloud as of 2021-11-14.
Currently - The top Layer visibility icon (within the layers palette) does not indicate a mixed visibility status of sub layers.
I have a rather complex layer set in a document I'm working on where I have master pages with master pages based on other master pages and linked objects within the document.
I just spent over an hour trying to locate a hidden object. I incorrectly assumed that, when looking at the layers palette, with all the layer stacks closed (layer list contracted where only the top level was shown)…2 votes -
InDesign 16.3.2 on Mac: with GPU, won't render images in frames with a fill applied
InDesign 2021 16.3.2
macOS Mojave 10.14.6 (18G9323)
MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012)
MacBookPro10,1
Intel Core i7, 2.7 GHz
16 GB RAM
Intel HD Graphics 4000 (1536 MB VRAM)
NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M (1 GB VRAM)
With "GPU Performance" enabled (or with "GPU Preview" on) images will not render if the containing frame has a fill applied. Note: InDesign reports that a compatible GPU and monitor are detected. Also, it doesn't matter whether "Animated zoom" is enabled or not. See screenshots 1–3.
With GPU Preview disabled (or with CPU Preview on) the images render correctly. See screenshots 4–5.

Verknüpfungen werden nach jeder Aktivität neu aufgebaut // InDesign 17.0 x64 // running on Win 10 Pro
Aktuell laden sich die verknüpften Bilder nach jedem Doing in InDesign (Also egal was ich mache, Textverschieben, von einem anderen Programm zurück zu InDesign wechsle oder was auch immer, 1 Sache mache ich und schon laden die ganzen Verknüpfungen neu. In den alten Versionen lief das ohne Probleme. Ich konnte ohne Störungen arbeiten. Dies scheint ein BUG zu sein, denn das macht das Arbeiten mit dem neuen InDesign unmöglich. Ich kann nicht jede Sekunde warten, bis sich der Screen neu aufgebaut hat und ich weiterarbeiten kann. Die Bilder komplett auszugrauen ist auch keine Option, da es für unsere Gestaltung wichtig…

[INDD 2020 and 2021] Document fonts folder does not work with fonts for placed SVGs
Provide a font file with the Document fonts folder for a placed SVG graphic where the font is not embedded.
RESULT: InDesign will not use the font for rendering text with the placed SVG graphic.ALSO: Even if the font is installed for ALL USERS in the system on Windows 10 InDesign will not package the font that is needed with the placed SVG graphic.
One cannot be sure what fonts are needed with placed SVG graphics. When InDesign documents are saved, closed and re-opened, Preflight and Type > Find Fonts… will not show them.
The only check you can…

Linked PDF images not exporting to PDF correctly
InDesign (16.2.1), Windows 10
Logos saved as PDFs and placed in an InDesign file appear with a gray vertical line on the right side of the image frame when the file is converted to PDF. There is no stroke or fill on the image frame; further, I checked a PDF with the same PDF logo in it that I created a month ago and it did not have the line. The line appears when the PDF is printed.
We found that reverting back to v16.1 resolved the issue. Also, relinking a JPG or TIF of the logo worked in 16.2.1,…

Premier Pro style file linking
I recently had the joy of relinking a project I was working on in Premier Pro. Right click, "Link Media...", the gui opens, I click "locate", hit "search" and hey presto! The experience is blissful.
Please do this everywhere! Especially in InPhosTrator.

Weird Bug with Resize to Frame
Resize frame to content messes up and I'm not sure if it's something to do with a setting I have set since this doesn't always happen.
Basically, I'll have a frame around some content with text in it.
When I hit "resize frame to content" ctrl-alt-c, it resizes the frame to the full document width, which looks like the example.
I obviously expect the frame to resize to the content, not to be super wide like the entire document.

bug: start/end line not clickable in Indesign
Indesign 16.3.2, Apple Silicon M1 chip, MacBook Pro macOS Big Sur 11.5
I've discovered a bug. When I try to click on the option to add a start or end to a line, the option disappears directly. So it's not possible to click on one of the options. Right now I can't add a arrow to the end of my line. I hope it will be fixed really soon!
