Missing item in startup screen should be removed
If I move a document on my hard drive, of course it’s gonna be missing in the recent items of inDesign. (normal)
At that moment, instead of « missing doc -> OK » i should have :
« missing doc -> remove from recent docs / Ok »
* OK would do the exact same thing, closing the message window and leaving the icon/item there.
* remove would remove it from the list so that I don’t see it again and mistakenly click it again.
Why keeping the « OK » item at all ? So that I can keep…3 votes -

Random De-selection
I've found this to be an issue ever since I first started using indesign 3 years ago. Sometimes when shift selecting objects, other random objects that you have already selected will unselect themselves. For example, I am selecting 4 random objects on my spread, I select 1, then 2, then 3, then 4, and object 2 unselects itself when I selected object 4

Weird display bug in bookmark panel
- Latest Indesign on Windows 10 (1709)
- Open document, open bookmark panel
- Show all bookmarks correctly
- Bookmarks are randomly cut in the middle of letters
- Screenshot attached.
Info: the INDD file was made in ID CS6 and now opened in ID CC, then saved. TOC and bookmarks have been recreated after this, but the problem remains. The weird thing is, this suddenly happened today. I've been using CC since 11-30-17 and before today it was OK.

file name variable shows extension when placed in another document
This is specific use that may not apply to most users, but it did work in previous versions. In Indesign 13.0.1, create a file that uses the file name text variable and then place this document into another document. The text variable should show the name of the file minus the file extension, and it shows correctly in the first file. But when you place the ID file into another file, the extension shows. This worked in previous versions of ID and caught me by surprise when it didn't work in the latest version, forcing me to use the additional…

cmd+v not working in scripts
- InDesign 2015, 2017 and 2018 on Mac OS (only on Mac. Works on Windows)
- Run the sample script "ImageCatalog.jsx". When the save dialog opens create a new folder. Name the folder by pasting a text using cmd+v.
- Any copied text would be expected to be pasted to name the folder.
- Nothing happens. But if you right click and choose "Paste" it works fine.

open copy
Adobe InDesign CC v 13.0 - macOS 10.9 - 10.13
I feel like this was a previously fixed bug in an older version, but may well be back with the latest 2018 update.
After upgrading InDesign to v 13.0, we are now not longer able to open a copy of files in use, neither duplicate the file in Finder.
When we try to open a copy we get this error message: “Cannot open file [filename.indd]. The file [filename.indd] is incompatible with Adobe InDesign (Error code: 14).”
When we try to duplicate the file, we get this error message: “The operation…

Mp4s don’t appear in exported swfs in indd 2018
The mp4s did work in indd 2017 and they do still in epub preview. I made identical indd files in 2017 and 2018 and placed several MP4s in both. they all worked in 2017 but in 2018 when activated by a click, button, or controller the poster disappears and the mp4 doesn’t play.
This happened at school some students were working on the classroom 2017 macs and others their own 2018 windows and mac laptops the test I ran was on windows 101 voteHello All,

pen constraining and / or snapping
Drawing with the pen tool snaps / constrains to fixed increments rendering it useless. This occurs even after turning off snap to guides and smart guides and using control to disable.

Every time there's a new update I lose all my saved templates.
If I'm missing something I'd like to know. Otherwise, I'm tired of having to recreate these templates every time there's an update.

splash
Title: Splash screen/Startup Screen won't go away.
Description: Whenever InDesign is launched by a script the splash screen stays open indefinitely.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Quit InDesign
2) Make a new AppleScript, with the content:"tell application "Adobe InDesign CC 2017"
launch
end tell"3) Run the script
Result: InDesign launches, but the splash screen never close
Expected result: InDesign should launch, but the splash screen should hide, once the launch is completed.

You seem to have gotten rid of the 'Recent Items' workspace!!! I loved that feature!@!
I used to love being able to quickly switch to a visual look at my recent files and then load one and it would go back to my previous workspace... Its now gone!!!! Upsetting....

GREP queries not saving correctly
I'm having a GREP issue in InDesign CC2017.1, I tried saving three different GREP queries but it saved the first one three times. I tried about three times to go back and correct the other two, but it would just remain the first GREP query. It seemed to only affect the Find field, what I saved in the Change field seemed to be fine. The only way I could get them all to save correctly was to physically go into the GREP XML files and enter my GREP query and save. I'm using OSX 10.10.5
