text turns into Symbols
When I place a document from Word into InDesign and apply a paragraph style the fonts all change to Symbol font. This has been going on for years through multiple versions of the program. Can you please fix it? Or explain how to avoid it?

line break between XML elements not behaving as expected
I have some XML in this format:
<ROOT><DOCUMENT>
<CHAPTER>Chapter One</CHAPTER>
<CONTENT>This is what happened in Chapter 1.</CONTENT>
<CHAPTER>Chapter Two</CHAPTER>
<CONTENT>This is what happened in Chapter 2.</CONTENT>
</DOCUMENT></ROOT>I have a pre-tagged template where the <CHAPTER> tag maps to a paragraph style with Keep Options, start paragraph=Next page (i.e., every new chapter should start on a new page). The <CONTENT> tag maps to a basic paragraph style, and <ROOT> and <DOCUMENT> are not mapped.
Notice there is a line break in the XML after <DOCUMENT>.
After importing, the result is that page 1 appears blank (because of the line break) and…

Styles for buttons and forms
It would be nice to be able to create styles for the buttons and forms so you don't have to manually adjust it when your document has heaps of the same fields.
Even just being able to change the default settings would be useful. I have to waste so much more time having to manually change each field setting.Who decided that Minion Pro, 12pt and scrollable was what people wanted?
Also, why would a checkbox by default be checked, most of the time you want a checkbox not to be checked when creating a form??3 votes -
Based on paragraph style doesn't show group the style is in
In Indesign 2020 when paragraph styles are based on other paragraph styles that are within a group, the based on area does not indicate which group the style is in, it only shows the name of the style. Which makes it difficult to know which actual style it's based on if you have multiple styles with the same name that are in various groups. Screen shots of Indesign 2020 attached and Indesign CS6 where it did show the group name in the based on area.

Paragraph Style Panel Not Showing All Styles
Bug: Paragraph Style Panel does not show all styles, when scrolling I cannot get beyond the 43rd paragraph style, the scroll stops at that point. Multiple restarts and reordering the list by name did not clear the issue. This also appears to be in the Based On Paragraph selection when creating a new paragraph style.

Underline disappears when paragraph shading is used
I have a paragraph style for text that needs shading and a character style for text with a hyperlink. The underline disappeares when shading is used. This happens when the height of the shading of the next used paragraph style is touching the underline in the previous paragraph.
The text remains on top so I would expect that the underline (which is part of the text, in my opinion) should also stay on top.
Strikethrough is not being affected in this way so I use this as a workaround.Latest version of InDesign…

Cannot remove hyperlink from image
For some reason InDesign has no option to remove hyperlink from an image. It took me hours to search for solution until I gave up and deleted the image and recreated it with a new hyperlink. This is pathetic and needs to change. When you right click an image, we should see "Hyperlink" > "Remove Link". This is so basic, its really upsetting to have to post this here.
1 voteDid you try clicking on the Trash can icon in the Hyperlinks panel?

Italic option in variable fonts
There is no option to change upright/italic in variable fonts.
With Myriad Variable I always go to an italic preset and then adjust the settings from there. But there should be a option right next to the weight and width scales.1 vote -

Indesign 2019 not allowing access to styles menu on MacOS working remotely
When working at home, using only wifi with a booster on a national carrier and MacOS Mojave version 10.14.6, Indesign 2019 (14.0.3 and using Adobe Cloud) does not allow access to styles panel to edit or do anything with styles. When working in-office and using wifi there, I have no problem accessing the styles. At home, Indesign just does nothing forever and I have to hit ESC to go on to do other work, not getting the changes I need.
