InDesign opens documents in read only after upgrading to InDesign 2023(18.0)
Indesign CC 2023 version 18.0 Files open as “Read Only”
As soon as updated, some files have started to open “Read Only” (RO)
My OS: Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19044 or 21H2

I am working remotely through a VPN to a server IP address
I have Indesign 2023 18.0 , and Indesign CS6 installed. I have not opened the CS6 in years. Also noted: My machine does not automatically uninstall the former version when it updates. I manually uninstalled Indesign 2022 after I started using the 2023. At first I thought the RO problem was a conflict, so that…17 votesWe are currently reviewing this issue.

Unable to relink more than one image at a time
Cannot relink more than one image at a time in InDesign 18.2.1 (2023) even when "search for missing links in this folder" box is ticked. Therefore I have to import each image individually, which is time consuming. Has anyone else come across this annoying problem at all?

Duplicated page removes some character styles
Duplicating a page removed some character styles in my document. Only on half the page though.
Super weird bug, tbh.
Your site does not allow uploading indesign files (!) but I can supply it upon request.
It'd be better if that were not a public upload :)

Split columns works strangely with text wrap
- 18.2.1 x64 on Windows 10
- Create text frame that spans the entire width of the page. Add an anchored frame with text wrap on the right side of the page. Apply a split columns paragraph style to some of the text.
- The text should split into two even width columns evenly spaced across the section that is not covered by the anchored item.
- Text splits into two even columns based on the entire width of the text frame. The right hand column is spaced too far to the right and is much narrower than the left column (please see attached…

Descendant Report
descendent over run the original person at more generations. This does not happen all the time, but occasionally. I uploaded first page and last page to illustrate. Didn't mean to load them multiple times I didn't realize I was doing it at first then I couldn't erase them. Hope this is not a dumb question sometimes I have a hard time explaining myself.
Thanks

Wörterbuch InDesign Deutsch -2006 neue Rechtschreibung 18.2.1. x64
Wenn ich die Neue Deutsche Rechtschreibung ab 2006 für meine Dokumente einstelle, springt die Einstellung beim Wort selbst (rechte Maustaste) jedes mal zurück auf die alte Rechtschreibung. Egal was ich versuche - diese Einstellung wird nicht im Dokument abgespeichert.
Ist das ein Bug?

Opening documents as tabs cannot be deactivated
Always open documents as tabs even if you have not selected this in the settings under User interface -> Open documents as tabs. I need different window sizes and find tabs impractical.

Return the use of "master pages" instead of "parent pages"
In the latest version Adobe decided that their job was to educate us to speak proper language, which is why the word "master pages" was replaced with "parent pages".
We do not find any problem with the phrase "master pages" and believe that it is not Adobe's role to dictate policy according to progressive agendas.
We demand to return to the previous concept of "master pages".
The term "parent pages" is confusing and misleading, with all the documentation of the software on the web for 2 decades referring to master pages.22 votes -
Major delay when changing page via the page up/down or double-clicking on the page icon
Major delay when changing page via the page up/down or double-clicking on the page icon. Usually happens when you have first opened a document. For example when you apply the keyboard command Opt-Pagedown, the icon on the bottom left of the screen immediately shows the page has changed but nothing happens. Sometimes it wont redraw the new page until you click on the screen and this only works after some time has passed (approx 6-8 seconds after). This was always instant in previous versions. My settings for view are on >Typical and I have Type Contextual Control set to >OFF.

addidtionl layer(s) are invisible in embedded INDD
The objects on layers except the main layer are invisible if you place the indd document in another indd document. If you move the object to the main layer and refresh the link they are visible again. PDF export is not effected by this.

new documents open in full screen
I am using ID 18.1 on Mac OS 12.5.1. Every time I open a new InDesign document the document takes up the whole screen. I have unchecked application frame under windows menu. I have unchecked "show home screen" in preferences. It is extremely annoying to have to grab the lower right corner of the window to size it down every time I open or create a new document. Where is the setting/preference to fix this?

Navigation bug on InDesign 18
When I open a document with several pages (facing pages) and I use the option + up or down arrow shortcuts to scroll the pages, indesign skips 2 double pages instead of one. The bug is intermittent. Only on Indesign 18.0 and 18.1.
I came back to version 17.4.1 and no more problems.1 vote -
Moving to the next page lag and sometimes doesn't even happen
When I scroll to the next page the display doesn't change, it stays as the page I was originally on. Sometimes I have to close the document and reopen to access the page I want.
