locked layers are invisible
I have an issue with locked layers: they are invisible in the layer-panel. I can only see them in the layout-view. I cannot edit, delete or unlock them. I can only make them invisible by disabling the "eye".
This happend to a file that was packed about 2 years ago. Unfortunately, even the IDML-File can't be edited. What's wrong?

alternate layouts
I want to prevent Indesign from adding alternate layouts to my file. I sometimes have to move pages from one document to another. I am using the page panel-move pages and then telling it the document I want the pages moved to. It adds an alternate layout. Is there a way to prevent this from automatically happening? It should be a feature that I turn on IF I WANT it. not one that I can't turn off.

step repeat
Maybe put horizontal before vertical in Step and Repeat.... Everybody knows that x comes before y in a 2D coordinate system. It's basic geometry. I can't be the only person who trips on this bug. FIX IT!

Align to grid
When you have a text box with multiple columns and paragraphs are set to align to grid + Align first line of text only, if text from one paragraph flows to the next column, that 'first' line of text will NOT align to the grid as it is not the first line in the paragraph. I can't think of any situation where this is an optimal outcome.

Edit page size duplicates
The "Edit page size menu items" duplicate every time I open a document. Menu is normal when I delete InDesign preferences but starts building up with every document I open.

Scaling of objects in finest steps
I'm using ID Version 16.2.1 x64. After the upgrade I found that an essential feature is suddenly missing: when I try to fit in pictures in existing frames for example I could formerly scale the picture in very fine steps with the help of the little "arrows" left from the field with the displayed value.
These "arrows" are no longer there - but only in the field defining, scaling or rotating objects.
In the other fields defining paragraphs, font size and everything else the "arrows" are still there as shown in the PDF I'll be sending to you.

Cannot View Baseline Grid in InDesign
Issue: Unable to View Baseline Grid in InDesign
1. Version of Adobe InDesign 16.3.2
2. Followed the steps to correct set up the Baseline grid (attachment 1); also went to View --> Grids & Guides --> View Baseline grid
3. Expected result is being able to see the baseline grid.
4. I closed the Indesign file and restarted it. Actual result: Still unable to see baseline grid despite all the settings present.
5. Please see attached screen shot images showing baseline grid set up and image 2: no baseline grid.1 vote -

Round corner appearance from InDesign 2018 file is changing, when open it on InDesign 2020 version
We are moving from InDesign 2018 to InDesign 2020 version.
Expecting that all previous files created in InDesign 2018 version should open correctly in later version without any design or font changes.
We found an issue on Corner radius for Rectangular box. Changing the corner radius appearance when file opened in InDesign 2020, though showing same Corner radius settings both InDesign versions (see screenshots).
Need a fix to open the files correctly in InDesign 2020 version also, without manual changing, as hundreds of files created previously with different corner radius.2 votes -
Some objects won't resize randomly
I'm fining with this latest version that some objects, particularly text will only resize to a certain size. See my screenshot - this is a 1x3 meter banner and I cannot size the text any bigger than what you see on the screenshot it just snaps back. I know for a fact the text is nowhere near Indesign's maximum size as it's 150pt. I can manually change the size of the text to 500pt plus but this throws the layout off. I'm absolutely sick and tired of these constant bugs in this programme.

Adjust layout without resizing anchored objects
With the Adjust Layout feature activated, if I resize the margins of a page or apply a master page with different margins, anchored objects on the page end up getting resized. I have even had some anchored objects disappear completely (although the anchors are still there). I want to be able to adjust the main text frame on a page to the new margins WITHOUT changing the anchored objects, which are part of the text flow and should not be changed.
For example, in designing a book, I want to apply a certain master page to pages with chapter headings.…
