Drop shadow is not updating after text is changed.
After giving a text box saying "New Music" a drop shadow, I duplicated the field and changed the text to Limewire. The drop shadow behind it did not change.
I've set the distance to farther than it was before to demonstrate it more clearly, also showing that the problem is not fixed after attempting to refresh it by changing settings.
2019 iMac 27in running MacOS Catalina 10.15.7 with InDesign 15.1.1.

3 Bugs one Update > Edge smoothing doesnt work correctly > Effects previews and use doesent work correctly and shredderesd text >
After the last update, the following things no longer work properly:
1. CC Libraries
(Crashes and shows either a reduced or enlarged section of the library and is no longer usable. Only a program restart helps ... short term! see screenshot 1. the bug was already in Illustrator!)- edge smoothing! (Not only since the update): ... Does not work properly for quite some time! 2.1 Completely covered areas, lines and graphics have a slight contour due to the edge smoothing and become minimally visible (although these would actually be invisible and not visible in print) or form minimally soft edges,…

Vertical lines occur on the right side of the page when exporting to JPEG
I'm experiencing issues when exporting my INDD-file to JPEG. It seems like the export process adds a thin, black line to the right side of the document that is not supposed to be there. Worked with InDesign for many years and never experienced anything like it, must be a bug. You don't notice this effect if you'll just use the image to upload it towards a transparent background or look at it on the screen.
However, I'm designing posters and when sending these exported JPEGS to my printing house, they will add a frame of one additional centimetre for the…

Arrows not working in Effects Dialog Box / Drop Shadow section
In InDesign 16.0.1 x64 in the Drop Shadow section of the Effects Dialog Box, there are some values where the arrows are not working. They are 1) Distance, 2) X Offset, 3) Y Offset and 4) Size (marked on the attached file).
These values should change(increase/decrease) either by pressing the arrows on the keyboard or the little arrows to the left of the value. This isn't happening in the latest version of InDesign. I looked at other effects sectios and the arrows seem to work everywhere else.2 votes -

some pages are transparent in Preview Mode
In preview mode, most empty pages are white (as they should be), but some are transparent -- the pasteboard color theme shows through.

Effects affecting all elements instead of the selected
Recently I've noticed that whenever I try to add an effect, it affects ALL elements as opposed to just the selected object.
The first time I noticed, I thought it would go away when I restart the computer but it's still happening! In the screenshot below, the top left was indeed the only one that got the dropshadow treatment but as soon as I hit that add dropshadow button, all the box changed their colors (see the purple and blue box)
Tried Googling for a solution but couldn't find any. Anybody experienced(ing) the same thing? How did you fix it?

Object Layer Options Causing Image to Glitch
When Object Layer Options are used (top image over graphic, bottom image under graphic box, for example), the image will glitch and polarize. When moving around the document or toggling between regular view and preview mode etc, the image will sporadically go back to normal or alter its representation.
Normal behaviour is for the image to show as expected.

stroke size not matching
In the new InDesign (16.0) stroke sizes don't always match. I can put a 3-point stroke on two different objects and one looks as expected and the other is extremely thin.

Rotate effects same direction with page rotation
When you need to rotate a page (180º) effects applied to a text frame aren't keeping the same viewable as it was originally set.
i.e: If you have a text with a Drop shadow applied with an angle of 135º if you rotate the page 180º the effect applied is upside-down, not following the original X and Y position, it should be -45º to keep consistency, please see attached jpg
Make sense?

Share for Review (15.1, ie. June 2020) color shift due to corrupt blend mode overlays
I feel like we've seen these kinds of issues before. But I noticed in the new "Share for Review" (InDesign 15.1) colors in a test document are shifting. A quick comparison shows that blend modes aren't been exported properly when sending a document up for "Share for Review."
In the screen shot, you can see what I mean: Top is the Review version as viewed in browser, bottom is the correct version as seen in InDesign. Some of the modes seem ok (Multiply, Normal opacity adjustments). But most blending modes aren’t rendering correctly (Hard and Soft Light look identical; Difference…
