Style mapping no longer seems to work between Word and InDesign
Previously I was able to import Word (v16.62) documents into InDesign and map its Paragraph Styles to my INDD template's Paragraph Styles.
In the latest version of InDesign (17.2.1), this does not seem to work, and the Paragraph Styles only come in in a single style.
I have gone back and tested this using old files, which previously worked, but they now do not work: the Style Mapping doesn't seem to register at all.

Paragraph border/ shading error with anchored objects
when anchored objects (such as column Text or line numbers) are anchored in a Text using the options "Paragraph border" and "paragraph Shading" the borders and Shades will "randomly" disappear, or new border-lines will appear (when more then one paragraphs are merged, the lines always appear between the different styles, even though they work fine again when the object is de-anchored). Sometimes the appearance doesn't change when an object is anchored, but when the anchored object is edited (for example, when the size of the anchored object is changed).
This is reproducable on my Windows 10, using InDesign 15.1.4.

em dash
InDesign treats two words separated by an em dash as a single word when applying styles. For example, if you create a paragraph style which includes a nested style to set the first three words of the paragraph in small caps, InDesign will set the first four words in small caps if the first three words include an em dash.
An em dash should be treated as punctuation, not a connector. Words separated by an em dash are are separate words and should be treated as such.

Paragraph Styles panel
In InDesign v 16.1 the Paragraph Styles panel is not showing any paragraph styles at all. I have tried creating new styles, saving them and they also don't show up. I have tried opening different files, where I know I have Paragraph Styles and it's still not working. Character Styles (most of which are nested in Paragraph Styles) on the other hand are displaying properly. I have tried resizing the panel, as suggested by another user, but no matter the size, nothing displays in the body of the panel.
If I open these same files in InDesign 15.1.3 the paragraph…

Style "based on" another doesn't inherit Export Tag settings
When a paragraph style (or character style) is created that is based on an existing one, Export Tagging attributes should be inherited just like all the other attributes are - that one category of settings seems to have been overlooked in the code. You can see screenshots and my example use case at: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/style-quot-based-on-quot-another-doesn-t-inherit-export-tag-settings/m-p/11981317

'New hyperlink from URL' no longer creating 'Hyperlink' Character Style
InDesign 16.0 2021
When using the 'New Hyperlink from URL' command, the default 'Hyperlink' Character Style is no longer being created, or applied if already present. The interactive hyperlink functionality still works, but no styling is being applied to the selected text as previously (in fact, if any Character Style is already present, it is being removed).
Previously, this command would convert the selected text to a hyperlink, and would also apply a 'Hyperlink' character style at the same time.
Please restore the previous function, or enable a user toggle to revert to the previous behavior is this is an…

copy/paste of URL loses character style
ID 15.0.2; Mac OS 10.14.6
copy a passage containing a URL formatted with a character style
paste the passage
expect char. style to be retained
actual: char.. style is eliminated; reverts to [None]
This happens when char. style is named 'Hyperlink' or when a char. style with another name is used.
Related issue: 'New Hyperlink from URL' always creates and applies default char. style Hyperlink unless I name my char. style for URLs 'Hyperlink'; 'hyperlink', for example, will not be applied.

Table development problems
We work with Adobe Indesign 15.0.1 (2020)
Currently we have some problems when automating as much as possible the application of the tables through the use of "table styles", this is because our tables have 4 different rows, unlike the possibility offered by Indesign that there are only 3 types of rows "header rows" "footer rows" and "text rows". This, for the moment, we solve in the following way: once we apply the table style, we select the rows that we want to change and we apply the “cell style” by hand.
One possible solution is that the “table style”…2 votes -
Column Rule disappears when grouped objects **with Text Wrap** are moved/nudged
Firstly, let me just say a BIG thanks for introducing Column Rules in CC 2020.
However, I've found a couple of problems so far.
- New File
- Draw a text frame (no text needed) and set the Columns to 2, and turn ON the Column Rule (all basic, default values).
- Draw another text or graphic frame (doesn't matter which) and place it anywhere (doesn't matter if it overlays the text frame, or not).
- Group the two objects.
- HERE IS THE KEY STEP: With the group selected, turn on Text Wrap (doesn't matter which... anything other than 'None').
- Move the group ANY…

Widows/ Orphans/ Runts
Please allow us to automatically apply No Break GREP style .{10}$ without needing to create a "No Break" style and applying it to paragraph styles individually.
In the Paragraph window, a checkbox next to "Hyphenate" that reads "Remove Runts" or "No Short Break" executes this process automatically would be wonderful. It seems logical since I imagine the automatic "Hyphenate" works in a similar way.

New, based-on Object style isn't "based on"
Take an Object Style and create a new style based on that style. When the new dialog opens with the based-on name present, it has a number of items chosen and selected, but it's not the same as the based on item.
You could try Duplicate Object Style and then add the based on-name, but while there is no error, any change made to the based-on object does not change the new object style.
2 votesBased on Style does inherit many of the properties from the Base style. And when you change those properties in the Base style, those properties get propagated to the child style.

numbered list
When a long numbered list extends to the next page, the first list on the next page will indent outside of the margins. To correct, I just reapply the style. It happens after closing and opening the document several times without me even working on that page. I'm having to check the exported PDF every time when I do an update to the file.
