1. In Design 15.0.2 freezes up and is extremely slow

   It takes quite a while to do simple things like create a text box, move the boxes around, cutting and pasting, moving from the selection tool to the type tool, etc. It will even freeze up moving from page to page. It takes forever to get any work done. Please help!

2. text shadow

   I have a text box with Drop Shadow Effect on the text itself. When I edit the text, the shadow does not change. I discovered quite accidentally that Undo (CTRL+Z) then Redo (CTRL+SHIFT+Z) fixes the issue.

   However, when I change the angle of the object (text box), the text moves but the shadow remains in place. I cannot fix it even by adjusting the Effect angle options.

   I have another issue where I have two separate text boxes on the same page with the exact same font and supposed font size, but the text is quite obviously not actually the same size.

3. copy and paste removing spaces

   I have ahad a problem recently when copying text from word documents to indesign where it randomly removes and adds spaces to the text body. This is extremly time consuming to resolve. i believe it is an internal bug in the new update.

4. Illogical interface to control the strokes of a table's cells

   Hi there,

   I find the interface to adjust the strokes of a table's cell utterly confusing and frustrating to use. For instance, I want to adjust the top horizontal border between two rows. If I click on the top bar in your interface (see diagram), select a weight and colour, InDesign changes the stroke of the cell's vertical bars?!

   If I select the bottom bar in the diagram, it still changes the vertical bars.

   If I attempt to guess the reasoning of how the interface works, I then chose to select the vertical bars in the interface, InDesign still changes the vertical bars. I can't win.

   The way I would expect this to work, is that if I select a border's line on the interface, when I click OK, those selected borders will be the only borders affected. I, therefore, can't understand what the purpose of the little grid in the top of the interface is. No matter which border's line I click, InDesign goes off and does its own thing, making it impossible to stylise the borders between the cells other than by pure luck.

   I also don't understand what the centre vertical line is for, to me, it has no purpose. I can't seem to find documentation that adequately explains how to use this interface.

   Can the UI be adjusted as I have described so that it is predictable in its effect? I appreciate that I may be confused and it all makes sense to someone, but it is so counter-intuitive that I've given trying to use/understand it. Surely a different technique/UI could be employed? It is easier to draw a table in PowerPoint, take a screenshot and then pace that into the document, which is very disappointing.

   Kind regards
   Mike Howell

5. lowercase u key not working in text frames

   version 15.0.02

   I am not able to type a regular "u" in text frames. I can copy and paste a lowercase u, I can Shift+U to make an uppercase U, but I cannot use caps lock to make an uppercase U.

   When I do press the u key, the line reverts back to the Basic Paragraph formatting, but I'm not able to find any shortcut that refers to this.

   I hope that is understandable.

6. New frame created when pasting text in InDesign

   Pasting single or multiple words into a table creates a brand new frame which floats on top of the existing one. This bug affects text copied from another section of the InDesign document as well as many text elements (single words or sentences) copied from MSWord.

7. Outline font in circle

   When a combination of superscript and normal sized font is used in a circle then fonts are outlined, the text jumps up to the positioning of the superscript within the circle instead of staying centred. This issue has not occurred before in previous versions of InDesign.

8. General font selection in bold!

   I have a question. I work a lot with questions and answers.

   I ask if it is possible to put all my 'questions' in bold without me selecting one at a time. Is it possible to make a general selection of all? (I tried using the CTRL + F method), but it doesn't work, there are different questions and different names.)

   Thanks in advance! Hugs from Brazil ma' friends!

9. [15.0.2.323] Big problem with unrecognized user dictionaries

   macOS 10.14.6 - multiple computers with us and with customers

   We noticed today that extensive user dictionaries are recognized as such by the existing documents, but InDesign (current version) completely ignores them and thus incorrectly hyphens them.

   In a special case, a very extensive user dictionary is linked as a symlink (alias) from the Dropbox into the corresponding Linguistics folder in Application Support / Adobe. So far, this worked wonderfully with all versions and has the advantage that adjustments are automatically distributed correctly via the Dropbox.

   I tried the following:
   the symlink resolved and the extensive dictionary (a lot of entries, 1.4 MB) locally as an independent user dictionary in the above Folder placed (added.txt). As a result, InDesign became extremely sluggish - even renaming to .udc didn't help. It was no longer possible to work and large documents could no longer be opened without InDesign reacting after a while and having to be "shot down".

   We have now rolled everything back to v15.0.1, as well as our customers who are working with us on projects with these dictionaries. No problems and InDesign 2020 v15.0.1 works as expected.

   Since this misconduct is absolutely not an isolated case here and can also be observed among all customers involved, a pretty bad bug has crept in with v15.0.2, which makes it impossible for us to work with the latest version.

10. Spell Check does not work after installing InDesign 15.0.2

    Dear Adobe Team,
    in our office we use In Design from several years without nothing problems.

    Yesterday we had updated the version 15.0.2. After that, the spell-check (we use the Italian language) don’t work if we import text in a existing document.

    But if we import text in a new document, the spell-check work without problems.

    Please can you help us?

11. Use Auto-Sizing and Text Wrap Frame on causes application crash

    Environment: InDesign 2020 (15.0.2 Japanese version) + macOS (confirmed with 10.15.3 and 10.14.6)

    • create and connect two text frames
    • set Auto-Sizing "Height and Width" on Text Frame Options
    • Insert text into two frames full
    • overlay graphic frames with Text Wrap settings ON
    • move the graphic frame appropriately (drawing is not normal at this point)
    • close documents with Command + W

    During this operation, you will usually be asked to confirm the save, but suddenly InDesign will end and the application will crash.
    Also, if you try while overwriting with Command + S without Command + W, you may not be able to save eventually.

    This problem does not occur on Windows version.
    As a comparison, the same operation was performed with the English (North America) edition on macOS, but no problem occurred.
    Therefore, it is highly possible that the problem is unique to the Japanese edition.

    Original trouble posted Adobe Community.
    (There is a other post about User Voice, but this is a different issue.)

    Hi
    Based on internal investigation and customer comments, we have concluded that the issue got fixed in InDesign 15.0.2 and that issue happens with InDesign 15.0.1 version only.

    Please start a new thread in case you see the issue happen with InDesign 15.0.2

    Thanks

14. Footnotes appear directly under para unless 'Span fn across columns' is selected in text frame or footnote options

    Even when working on a single column layout, with no multiple columns in the document this happens. It means that without selecting the 'Span fn across columns' option the footnotes appear at various places in a page.

    We should not have to select this option for a single column design.

    It also seems to add extra spacing below the paragraph, even if the option is selected. As if the spacing is created for the fn, even though it now appears at the bottom of the text frame instead of after the para!

    This is using v 15.0.1 x64 on windows.

16. [ CC-2019 and 2020 ] The Convert-Endnotes-To-Footnotes Disaster SCOPE: SELECTION with CONTEXT MENU

    Hi together,
    I'm using the context menu available for text selection to convert endnotes to footnotes by selecting text in the endnote text frame.

    The result is not as expected. However it is better than using the dialog in menu Type for converting endnotes to footnotes with scope selection.

    What is the issue?
    One endnote was converted but not removed.
    Two footnote text are missing the first character.
    One footnote text has a special character that should not be there.
    Style overrides were not transferred.
    Footnote references get style overrides of the character they are attached to.

    All the important details, also screenshots together with a download link to my test files can be found at InDesign Prerelease or in the following thread at Adobe InDesign Forum:

17. [ CC-2019 and 2020 ] The Convert-Endnotes-To-Footnotes Disaster SCOPE: SELECTION

    Hi together,
    I'm using the menu dialog, not the context menu, for converting endnotes to footnotes. Scope: Selection

    The result is not as expected.

    3 out of 7 endnotes were not converted to footnotes.
    1 additionally was converted, but the corresponding endnote was not removed.

    Trying again with a different selection of the remaining endnote texts:
    Now the first endnote could be converted, I assume because I selected all the endnote text. However the remaining endnotes couldn't be converted.

    All the details can be found at the Adobe InDesign Forum:

    I am showing all this in more detail at the Adobe InDesign Forum and at InDesign Prerelease as well. Together with a link to my test documents.

20. Bad interact: Keep Lines Together & Start Paragraph in Next Frame, not working at Threaded Auto-Size (height) Text Frames

    Working on InDesign CC2018 in Windows7.
    When having threaded two (or more) auto-sizing (height only) text frames, and typing in the first of them, at the end of first line the cursor jumps to the next frame. No auto-size, no keeping lines of the paragraph together.
