performance issues
I've never been complaining about InDesign, but the last updated version sucks hard. I have issues with my tablet, the smart guides are not measuring right, I got issues with type tool imagining object that doesn't exist. There issues with the other apps as well, the last year with Adobe CC has been really driving me crazy, the quality of performance it's just getting worse!

Cross-Reference won't save a <cs style="stylename"></cs> format. It just strips the tag out of the data.
Before updating to the latest version of ID, I would get an error each time I tried to use the <cs> tag to format a cross-reference. It wouldn't let me save the data.
Now it lets me save the data, but it just strips the tag out.
I have a character setting called Bold.
I defined a cross-reference format as:
<cs style="Bold"><fullPara /></cs> on page <pageNum />I save it, and I click OK. Then I reopen the format page, and it says the following:
<fullPara /> on page <pageNum />It's like the tag never existed. No matter what…

[Limited Undo] InDesign CC 2019 (v14.0) strg+z / cmd+z doesn't work properly
With the new Version the option to go back some steps seems to be cut at some point. I have been working on a couple of files now and going steps back with strg+z works for 2-3 steps. Somehow random but definitely not the way it used to work.

InDesign ability to handle large files with many images / better rendering
Today in InDesign with large files (e.g. 320 pages, 400 images, many images 10MB JPEGs), presentation mode becomes bogged down with rendering the images and is unusable. Furthermore, using the page view large–jumbo sized views is very slow. On my 5k iMac, I can see that the CPU, the GPU, and the RAM are all available, so there is compute power to be had. Thus the feature request is to enable InDesign to use more HW and/or to have a way to store fully rendered images in a cache.

Poor performance with placed InDesign documents
When placing a really large dimensioned InDesign document into a smaller document the performance of that smaller document is crippled to the point where it becomes unusable, especially when there are many placed InDesign documents.
To test:
Create 4 different InDesign documents that are 3600 x 2580mm in size.
Create an A4 booklet with 4 pages.
Place a different one of the larger InDesign documents on each page of the A4 booklet.
Try and navigate from the first page to the last page of the A4 document.3 votes -
InDesign 2020
InDesign is shutting down my palettes. So everytime i close out a document, my pallette set up disappears. Every. Time. I have to set up my pallettes every time and it is super frustrating. Is there a way (that I don't know) to keep my pallettes set up the way i want all the time? Also I am not touching tab, either.
Also, why is there not a mobile InDesign App for ipad?

When working over VNC, often Tools cannot be chosen
When I connect to my Mac over macOS-VNC, I can use everything as needed. Unfortunately sometimes Indesign shows the hand and lets me use only the hand to move the page, although I clicked the Arrow e.g. and it is selected. I the cannot select Text, change sizes of boxes etc. The only remedy is to reconnect via VNC, but not every time that works. I do not have this with any other program than indesign, so I am starting my journey of finding the root of this here.

Document slowdown when fonts not activated
When fonts aren't activated in an InDesign document, InDesign CC2019 slows down and is practically unusable unless you activate most or all of the fonts used in the document. This wasn't the case in previous versions of InDesign, when you could deactivate fonts intentionally in order to troubleshoot files. In long form documents that may use multiple fonts, this was an especially useful tool.
As InDesign documents are frequently separated from their fonts, especially when using font managers instead of Document fonts, this slowdown becomes a burden when checking files in larger workflows and inhibits font troubleshooting. Could the behavior…

character size
Hello,
I have an issue with the size of some panel. For example, the "paragraph" one and the "character" one are oversized, they are too long and I can't reach the end or even redimensionized it. How can I fix that?1 vote -
When opening InDesign 2020 files I get a message that the file is damaged. See screenshot. The same file will open with Adobe 2019.
When opening the file in ID 2019, I get the message that links are missing. Perhaps ID 20 thinks that the file is damaged because the links are missing, so I get the damaged message.

Print upside down after rotated the image
I rotated three images on three different pages. When I printed out the document, those three pages were printed upside down! Not just from inDesign, I exported as pdf file and printed through Acrobat, the same thing happened. They look perfectly fine on screen. Also, if I deleted those rotated images, everything was fine, no upside down pages.

InDesign CC 2020 lagging between actions
Upgraded from InDesign 2019 and now I have an annoying lagging issue between actions like zooming, page scrolling, selecting objects, etc. Searched and many seem to be experiencing the same thing. I did everything mentioned... deleted, reinstalled, deleted cache, deleted preferences, etc with no luck. I'm on a late 2015 mac using Catalina.
I Reinstalled 14.0.3 and and there is no lag on that version and works great. Seems to be only in v 15.0.x
FYI, I temporarily resolved the lag issue in v15.0.1 by disconnecting the computer from the internet and work offline. Doing so resolved the lag issue…

Indesign causes screen to enter a strobe flicker effect and no choice but to shut down
Sometimes when I drag a text box to a different position the screen starts to flicker then goes crazy - like a strobe effect. It's applied to all software that's open and there is no choice but to have a frenzied time trying to shut down applications and saving work before the screen either goes completely blank or white. There is no choice but to restrt the imac.
It happened around 5 times in the space of an hour and then won't happen for weeks.

InDesign doesn't display files or any kind of Interface I can work with.
InDesign doesn't display the files I want to work on.
InDesign Version I use is 14.0.2
Steps to reproduce:
Open InDesign by clicking on the app icon or double click an InDesign file, none works.
Expected result: To see the file I want to open and be able to work on it.
Actual result: InDesign window seems hidden and doesn't display my file which means I can't edit it.
I tried to clear preferences & cache but there's no InDesign file in the cache folder.5 votes
