Add transparency option to paragraph shading
Paragraph shading is super nice, but a lot of people would like to have them a little transparent over images. I know there is a option for overprinting, but this also change the color and is not a real transparency. Without this option it has to be done manually on each element.
So please add this additional feature to the settings. Thx

Wrong hyphenation Spanish
Indesign 2023 Spanish hyphenation is wrong.
Some words starting with "des-" are hyphenated after "des-" and should be hyphenated after "de-". Example of right hyphenation:
- desempeño > de - sem - pe - ño
- desagradecido> de - sa -gra - de - ci -do
- destilar> des - ti - lar
This problem has appeared in last versions of indesign.

The shortcut for the "Nonbreaking Space" (option+command+X) doesn't work anymore in Indesign 2023 (and 2022). Clearing cache and preferences didn't fix it.

[EPV] Footnote references vanish in tables when the Adobe World-Ready Composer is applied
Hi together,
tested with InDesign 2020 and also with the current InDesign 2023 version 18.1.0.51 on Windows 10.
If I apply one of the two Adobe World-Ready Composers to text in a table the footnote references in the text will vanish.
The footnote texts themselves do not. It's just the rendering of the footnote reference numbers.See also this thread at Adobe InDesign Forum:

Character control panel is cut off
The Character panel is currently cut off, so I can't change the font easily like I want to. I restarted InDesign as well as my computer but so far no luck.

Typesetting changes on paragraphs that are not touched
while working on texts - like doing corrections or micro typopraphy – InDesign changes the line breaks to other paragraphs that I am not working on.
On the same page, but when I work on details sometimes I zoom and do not see that things are changing. This often causes changes to several pages and I need to fix everything back!1 vote -

Fonts search and list not working properly
Indesign doesn't let me search for fonts in the search bar of the fonts list dropdown. I can start typing, and then one font comes up, and I can't continue typing to bring up the font I want.
Also, once I start typing in the fonts bar, I can no longer use my arrow keys to scroll through the fonts list and it's very frustrating.2 votes -

?bug re bulleted lists in v18
I have just opened an InDesign document I created in Aug 2022. I am now using InDesign v18.1 x42. It converted the document from Shivani.indd to Shivani.indd[converted], as I see it does when you open documents created in previous versions.
However, all my bulleted lists are no longer bulleted lists, they are just text, with the bullet symbol and a single space at the start of each line. When I select the text the bulleted list icon in “Bullets and Numbering” is no longer highlighted. But more of a problem is that clicking on “options” in “Bullets and Numbering” brings…

Disappearing caption text
When adding text to an existing caption in Adobe InDesign 2023, the entire caption disappears. To solve, I can widen the caption box, which our client's formatting specs do not allow, or adjust the text frame options to ignore text wrap, which distorts the horizontal scale of the text. How can I add text to captions without having to change my caption text box's layout?

Hanging drop cap has wrong indents in 2023 v18
In v18 (2023), when a paragraph has both a drop cap and a hanging indent (negative first line indent), the indent gets messed up on subsequent lines.
This came from a bug report by Lut Van Nooten on the InDesign Secrets LinkedIn group:
https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7006264075831648258/The solution is to disable the new Composition Preference: "Honor Text Indents in addition to Text Wrap"
However, in this case, this is clearly a bug because there is no text wrap!
