1. If there is white text on a colored background InDesign thinks there's nothing at all

   If there's only white text on a page but this text has a colored "paragraph shading" ("Absatzschattierung" in German), InDesign does not recognize this color and thinks the page is still empty.

   I reported this in the old "wish form" about four years ago: https://rainerklute.de/bug-report/

   The dialogue shows a way to solve this but why is it not implemented?

2. Problem mit Schlagschatten unter 15.0 x64 (Windows)

   Wenn einem Objekt ein Schlagschatten zugewiesen wird, so verschiebt sich der Schatten, sobald man auf OK klickt. Das heißt, der Schlagschatten hat dem optischen Eindruck nach andere Werte, als die zugewiesenen.
   Beispiel: Ein einzelnes PSD mit mehreren freigestellten Objekten vor transparentem Hintergrund erhält folgende Werte:
   Deckkraft 100% / Abstand 3 mm / x-Versatz 0 / y-Versatz 3 mm / Winkel 90° / Größe 5 mm / Übergriff 50% / Rauschen 0
   Als Ergebnis zeigen einige Objekte einen 90" nach untern fallenden Schatten. Bei den restlichen Objekten ist der Schatten nach unten und links verschoben.
   Dieses Problem ist neu, es ist bisher nicht aufgetreten.

4. Master page effects don't render properly unless overridden.

   I have a drop shadow on a Current Page Number marker on my Master page.
   On the document pages, the marker renders the correct page number, but the drop shadow is always the character that's rendered on the Master page (In this case, a "B").
   Only if I detach the item from the master page will it render properly.

5. Anchored item with white overprints

   This is a 'white' bug.

   I regularly use anchoring to keep items aligned and for spacing.
   Text is black. Art or tables need white in them to knockout the shade beneath.

   When a table is placed inline or a piece of art is anchored in a text box that has a color or a border... the white is ignored in the anchored object.

   There is no reason to ignore a color just because it is inline or anchored.

   This bug forces me to layer the object on a different layer, causing extra work in keeping the item aligned after edits.

6. IDML save changes Object Styles/Transparency Settings

   When I export a package the resulting IDML and INDD files are different.

   In all cases, the IDML file appears to randomly assign different transparency settings to random objects across any number of pages. One Object Style was changed to 60% opacity when it should have remained at 100%. In another a drop shadow was applied at 75% and Opacity was set to 60% for the image inside a graphic box, when neither effect had been turned on for the content of the box object.

   It has taken me awhile to track down. My partner was opening idml versions of my work, and kept nagging me about "why does this look THATway?" I finally caught on that it was the IDML export being messed up.

   The resulting files are rather large, containing many linked images, but if you wish I can provide the package of v15 of my project, which contains the two NOT MATCHING files in idml and indd formats. Let me know.

   Thank you.

   James

   P.S. It's possible the IDML open/import process is the culprit, but since I see the same error in the same place when I open the file each time, I suspect it was exported incorrectly.

   The attached screenshot shows the INDD file on the left, and the IDML file on the right. Files opened from the packaged folder after packaging.

7. Shadow Effects Washing Out Image

   I am using InDesign 14.0.2 on a Mac with Mojave 10.14.3.

   When trying to add a drop shadow or inner shadow, the image gets washed out. I've provided screenshots that show the image with and without effects.

   My supervisor also noticed this on her computer. I believe she is on High Sierra and CC2019 but I don't know if it is up-to-date on her machine.

9. Problem with drop shadow exposure when placing from Illustrator into Indesign

   I am using the latest version of Indesign (14.0.1) and Illustrator (23.0.1).
   When placing a .ai file with transparency in Indesign and then making a drop shadow (in Indesign), the transparant parts of the object has the drop shadow above it, instead of beneath... :0

11. BUG: Imported InDesign file gives wrong preview

    When I create an InDesign 'web'-file and apply a gradient feather the preview of this file does not show the elements which have the effect applied to.
    When I create a new 'print'file with the same dimensions and elements the preview is correct.
    It seems strange that these files seem different in their backbone somehow.

12. Effects not working correctly

    Some of the "effects" (inner glow, outer glow, basic feather, etc.) do not work as they are supposed to. For example, I cannot get the "outer glow" effect to apply only to text, it either applies itself to the whole object or it applies a very faint glow that can hardly be seen and that no amount of adjusting will fix (yes, I know that I have to choose "text" from the drop-down menu and unclick the effect for the "object"). And, just now (11/8/2018, 1:30 pm), I was trying to apply a gradient feather to just the "fill" of a text box and it did absolutely nothing. The box is still completely full of opaque color no matter what I do. Sometimes an effect will work in one area or section of my project and not in others. I like the effects, but I sure wish they worked more consistently.

13. Objects with Opacity Fill below 100%, appear as 100% when PDF proof placed in a layout file.

    Created ad with objects containing simple color fills below 100% (50% and 30%) opacity. Exported proofs to use in a Indesign magazine layout file. Once the PDF was dropped into a frame, those faded opacity values jumped back to 100%. Fix was to re-edit the original files, change Opacity values, re-save, re-export proof, drop proof back into main layout. Very annoying.

14. eyedropper

    The eyedropper suddenly stopped working correctly. See attached images to show which eyedropper options are selected and what the result is. The color should be a flat blue and instead a gradient effect is being applied. This is happening repeatedly throughout many charts within this document. I'm in InDesign CC and it's up to date. I just reset all of my preferences manually as the shortcut keys have never worked for me and my pages panel stopped working.

18. Place .ai file indesign loses layers!

    Idea? This is a bug. I followed bug link...
    Placing .ai file into indesign cc preview is perfect until release. Shows random white spots &yellow.
    Renamed file. Same problem. The red is in new layer above the diamond. Normal layer with several overlays. Turned off overlays and same. Why is it that normal layer allows white through? Just when you think you’re an intermediate this happens.
    Red low quality diamond is illustrator.
    The rest is self explanatory assuming the other two files uploaded. One was import dialog box for placing with shift. Everything looks fine until I place it.

20. drop shadow issues

    Hello!

    I'm trying to do an A3 poster with two layers:
    Layer one: A rectangle a white-black gradient fill and some line option and drop shadow applied.
    Layer two: Some text frames with white text with black strokes.

    When I add drop shadow to the text it looks just as intended on screen.

    But when I print it out on a big, expensive Samsung X7600 Series printer, I get a kind of gradient color in bottom of text frames. As if I had applied some color to the frame.
    (Please see the attached file "indd cc print screen".)

    I have made sure to just apply shadow to text in the effects dialogue.

    It does'nt seem to matter what changes I do.
    The printed result is the same as in the attached file "printed scanned".

    Same error when I export to pdf.

    Why, but why!?

    What am I doing wrong?

    I'm using Indesign CC, ver. 13.0.1 x64 on PC. Swedish.

    Very thankful for some help!
    And please forgive my english spelling.

    Regards!

    Thomas,
