The "spinning ball" when working with a graphic box!
I have a serious problem! My InDesign 2021 (version 16.0.1) shows the "spinning ball" every time an image is placed into the graphics box, as well as when duplicating, copying, pasting the image box (with an image inside), as well as when updating the image in the graphics box. The "spinning ball" is shown every time for 11 seconds. However, the image type (psd, tiff or eps / ai / pdf) does not matter. Working with such a performance bug is very difficult. Adobe, I demand to fix this as soon as possible!
Notes: MacBook Pro 13 Retina (mid 2014),…

InDesign index entry dialogue box virtually unusable
Have been using the indices extensively on a project - rarely use it this often - and can't help but notice the size of the dialogue box makes editing virtually impossible. The entry is barely 15-20 characters wide, when a lot of entries I have are more than 50-60 - some 100 or more. Could really use a much better dialogue box - and the index menu itself the type is much too small to work with easily - almost going blind using it! Thanks.

InDesign file size out of control
Working on a large 2500+ document and any time I open and make even a minor update - just updated the TOC automatically - the file balloons from 48MB to over 72MB in size. Unnecessary. Please get this under control. Thanks.

InDesign no longer automatically returns to source folder
Noticing with the recent updates that InDesign no longer returns to the source folder when opening files and/or importing content. It throws me somewhere else... sometimes root user folder [of no use] sometimes a folder I used days ago, very unstable implementation.
InDesign has a temp file associated with it - you open an InDesign layout - it creates a file with a garbled filename - no other apps do this, just InDesign. Why does it not use this temp file to help it locate where it should point to?
I'd really rather eliminate the temp file altogether. Can it…

command tab
I'm finding that InDesign is breaking Command+Tab (app switching) in Big Sur, from 11.0 to 11.1, the current version.
Quitting InDesign brings it back, and simply booting InDesign breaks it. Leaving it open in the background once broken keeps Command+Tab broken until I quit InDesign.
I went through Keyboard Shortcuts as well as Apple's Shortcuts and found nothing conflicting.

Save Windows on Mac OS
NOTE: This is a problem not just on InDesign, but also on Illustrator and Photoshop as well.
Ever since the last upgrade for macOS Big Sur (ver 11.1), save, package and export windows have a serious issue. They don't show the pathways of the files even when you have it set to do so. Instead all you see is the options for what to include or any other information at the bottom of the window (see the attached screen shot).
Even when you enlarge the window to be able to see the paths, it does not retain the memory that…

InDesign 2021 slow when Macbook connected to network
InDesign 2021 (16.0.1) runs totally slow when the computer is connected to our local network. Even when I work locally the coloured ball is spinning every 15 seconds.

Pdfs come in upside down and inverted when viewed in 'high quality display' in InDesign, 16.0.. Mac OS, Big Sur 11.01.
The problem is only in 'high-quality display' It shows normal in 'typical display.' When exporting from InDesign to a PDF there is no issue. This is a display rendering bug. Note: pdf I'm linking to was from Adobe XD.

Location of link,indd & export files
INDD CC on PC win10
Working with local files and 2 LAN locations.
1) Sick of Indd updating every week and forgetting file locations.
2) the two options "Original Link folder" and "most recent Relink Folder" are meaningless.
I would like to be able to drag a job folder from the network and work on it with Indesign first looking in that local folder for its links, link folder and fonts instead of the original job folder on the LAN.
Why? - lets say I had an idea and want to test it without ruining the Main job. I make…1 vote -
Place dialogue blank
The place dialogue is often a nearly blank/greyed-out box. Sometime ID crashes, sometimes it allows me to a place the file through the dialogue, sometimes the dialogue disappears when I click the pasteboard. It happens seemingly randomly.

Montserrat Font Constantly trying to load in InDesign
Whenever I open an InDesign file the background task starts up and it is Montserrat Bold trying to load. This occurs no matter what file I have open and whether or not the file uses the font being loaded.

Steps to reproduce:

Publish Online roll over bug
I'm using InDesign 2021 version 16.0.
I seem to be running into an issue with the roll over effect in Publish Online. The issue seems sporadic, but once the bug happens, it doesn't fix itself.
I've setup a timeline so that when you roll over the date, info will be visible. This works initially, but then when I try to go back to some dates that I've previously rolled over, the info does not show up. Expected result is to have the info shown when you roll over the date. Actual result shows that the button to trigger the roll…

Temporary file not working
In the company I'm working at we have our files on a server that we share. When a customer have some edits requested we get an email in our system with the changes required. Me or one of my colleagues dive in to the job and fix the things in InDesign and then send a pdf back to the customer.
This works really great and it's usually small changes here and there in quarterly and annual reports we work with.
But now it seems like the temporary file saved on the server isn't working like it used to.

Pages Pallet - page numbers under thumbnails hidden under last row of a small pallet
- InDesign 15.1.3
- Create a document where the Pages Pallet is smaller than the thumbnails in the pallet.
- Expected to see page numbers under the Thumbnails on the last row.
- Actual Result: The last row shows the thumbnail, but the page numbers are hidden, but only in the WORKSPACE views of: Advanced Book Essentials Essentials Classic …and my custom one (probably based on one of those above.)
The page numbers appear to work correctly in the other WORKSPACE layouts.
Attached are a couple images with the page numbers hidden, and one where it is displayed correctly (The correct one is using…
