2. Rulers exceeding text boundaries, only paragraph shading or offsets seem to be able to limit them

   The issue is described in this thread (sample .INDD file link included in the thread to reproduce the issue):

   https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/can-all-column-rules-height-be-re-adjusted-at-once-after-changing-the-copy-text-font-size/m-p/13139262#M488618

   The excess rulers that go beyond the text boundary can only be removed (or masked, not sure which is actually happening) with paragraph shading.

   As a rule, rulers should not go beyond the text boundary, and they should adapt to the text boundary (if font size have been changed, or if other changes have been made that affect the layout).

   But the green arrows show that in some cases the boundary is correct.

   It shouldn't be necessary to add both offsets and paragraph shading to get the rulers right.

   The paragraph shading trick is not a real solution, that I guess is just overlapping the rulers but it does not trim them.

6. 17.4 hangs opening files

   Updated to 17.4 to benefit from purported improvement on ID hang on files with missing fonts. Now opening any file causes a hang.

   ID 17.4
   OS 12.5.1

   Console posts "nwsockethandlesocketevent <private> Socket SO_ERROR [61: Connection refused]" message for ID (where it joins the steady stream of error messages for Illustrator)

8. text lag is severe in 17.3 compared to slight lag in 17.2

   Mac OS 12.5, Indesign 17.3

   anything that makes text reflow: Text edits, style changes, text wrap around an object lag severely in 17.3. The more text the longer the lag. Can be multiple seconds on a single page doc up to just crashing on an edit to a 50+ page doc when reflowing text.

   I have reverted to 17.2 their is still a little lag but only a second or 2.

   The forum interfacer won't let me upload indesign format files so I cannot provide test files. Email me if you need them.

9. InDesign Window Moves Slightly Offscreen (So I Can't Adjust Window Size) When Plugged Into External QHD Display

   I'm using a 14" M1 Pro Macbook Pro, and when plugging into an external display (QHD), Indesign's top window moves slightly offscreen (see attached picture). Goes away when I unplug the display, but quite annoying to have to remember to resize the window before plugging it into a display since I can't resize the window another way without that top bar accessible.

11. Space Bar Shortcut for Hand Tool frequently stops working (MacOS)

    About once a week I find that the hand tool shortcut stops working.
    Restarting InDesign doesn't resolve the issue, however restarting the computer does.

    Space bar continues to work in all other capacities (including as a spacebar, as I'm experiencing the bug right now and yet still able to add spaces into this text box)

    macOS Big Sur 11.6.7
    (Not updating to Monterey due to cloud services bugs in the operating system)

12. Indesign and Illustrator latest version unusable

    I’m very angry because the latest version of indesign (17.3) is virtually unusable. If I select an image or text box on a layout I get a spinning wheel for 10 - 15 seconds. If I try to move something - spinning wheel 10-15 seconds. Even Adobe Illustrator 26.4 behave this way.

    I downgraded to indesign 16.4.2 and Illustrator 25.4.6 because I cannot work this way. Previous versions did not behave this way on this same condition and computer.

    These are the comments to your workarounds:

    1. For many of the users the issue got fixed after updating InDesign to a newer version. NOTHING CHANGES.

    
2. For some, the issue got resolved after disabling a third-party application such as Suitecase fusion etc. NO THIRD-PARTY APPLICATIONS INSTALLED
.

    1. For few, the issue was intermittent and is no longer reproducible. INTERMITTENT, EVERY 5 MINUTES OCCURS
.

    2. For majority of the users, the underlying cause of the performance issue was identified to be related to span columns, cross-references, third party plugin etc. NO PLUGIN INSTALLED.

    iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2020), MacOS Big Sur 11.6.7, 64Gb RAM, 1 SSD drive 2 TB, AMD Radeon Pro 5700 8 GB.

    Please don't tell me to upgrade to Apple last OS, I don't want to do it.

13. Zoom Scaling when editing Review Comments

15. Window and panels moving when Mac goes to sleep

    There is an issue with Adobe apps while using Mac M1 with an external monitor. When put in sleep, the windows and palettes move to the bottom half of the screen.

    There are comments on this thread that confirm

    this is an issue with specifically Adobe apps(illustrator, photoshop and indesign at least):

    https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/window-and-panels-moving-when-mac-goes-to-sle...

    please, Adobe support, address this issue.

    Closed: Fixed  ·  AdminRavi Kiran (Senior Lead Quality Engineer, Adobe InDesign) responded

    The issue of Application Window getting resized after waking Mac machine from sleep has been addressed in InDesign 2024 19.2 Release.

16. All adobe apps temporarily freeze when another adobe app is saving.

    I've noticed this since the last update. When InDesign is saving, all other Adobe apps temporarily freeze until InDesign completes saving. Not a problem most of the time for quick saving documents, but for larger projects like catalogs, I can be stuck for 5-10 minutes until INDD completes saving.

19. InDesign does not appear in Windows Task Manager when restarted after a crash

    When InDesign freezes or crashes (which happens pretty frequently), I go to Windows Task Manager and end the task. When I reopen InDesign, InDesign does open and has the autosaves of all my ID documents open, but InDesign does not appear in Windows Task Manager at all.

    This is a problem because usually whatever caused InDesign to freeze/hang the first time will occur again very quickly, but this time I can't end the task. Nor can I end the task if anything else goes wrong. The only way to fix this is to restart the computer to force all applications to shut, which is a huge time waster if I am working and have multiple things open.

20. InDesign display shift problems

    1. Version: InD 17.3 x64, in Windows 10 Enterprise, Intel(R) Xeon(R) W-10885M CPU @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz, 128GB RAM. I'm halfway wondering if having the system's display scaling set to 125% is disagreeing with the InD app....
    2. Steps causing issue: Make edits on a page with text frames and placed graphics.
    3. Expectation: Layout items render normally.
    4. Result: Sections of layout display shift by several pixels, creating broken display of layout. Uploading mild examples (part of top edge of graphic has shifted; section of edges of frames has shifted). Often lines of text are half cut off by the effect. Can happen when doing something as simple as clicking into a text frame.
