1. We use a template for our papers with layout/margins & columns are changing

   We set up our pages then drag the parent page onto the actual page. The parent pages are all 3 or 4 columns. When the parent page is on the actual page, checking Layout/Margins & Columns, now has 5 columns instead of its 3 or 4.

2. leave User Workspaces ALONE

   Leave User Workspaces ALONE!! Updates should automatically grab the current workspaces and copy them in, STOP trying to shove three versions of "essentials" down our throats. Not all of us have admin access, so deleting after every update isnt an option. It also stops non-admin users from migrating manually. To say this is frustrating would be an understatement.

   "Essentials" is TRASH, but every **** update removes any custom ones I have (YES even if I choose migrate, it doesnt do anything so I stopped bothering) and force it into "Essentials". Just STOP. You DO NOT know our workspaces better than us. This shouldnt be difficult, but Adobe has been doing this for years, and now InDesign 2025 has THREE different Essentials? Thats missing the point entirely and then congratulating yourself for it.

3. [ID-4265137] Can't override the keyboard shortcut (shift-e) for GPU preview

   Go to Keyboard Shortcuts, to View > GPU Preview toggle and delete the Default context shift-e shortcut (as it's already used in my set for Reveal in Bridge). Save, works fine for that session, forgets next restart.

7. 検索と置換で置換文字列のテキストボックスに入力した文字が勝手に変わる

   「検索と置換」で正規表現の検索テキストボックスに入力し、置換テキストボックスに検索テキストボックスからコピーした文字をペーストして、置き換えたい文字に修正する。
   マウスをテキストボックス外でクリックすると修正前の文字列に戻てしまう。
   ＜行った操作操作＞
   １．検索「Taro: 」と入力
   ２．「Taro: 」をコピーして置換のテキストボックスにペースト
   ３．置換で「Taro: 」を「taro:\t~(」に修正
   ４．ポインターをテキストボックスから外し、クリックすると「Taro: 」に戻る。
   文字列が戻るだけで、実行結果は指定した通りになります。
   この現象が発生する確率は10％程度です。

8. URGENT: Add an "Empty Output" Option for Text Variables

   Currently, InDesign text variables (e.g., Running Headers) always display the last non-empty value when the source is empty. While this behavior can be useful in some workflows, it causes major problems in others. In publishing and educational workflows, having an “empty” variable output display the previous value is unacceptable.

   We urgently need a way to explicitly tell InDesign: “If the source is empty, display nothing (truly empty).”

   Proposed Solutions:
   - Introduce a new special character (e.g., “Null Variable Marker”) that, when placed in the source text, forces the variable to render as empty.
   - Alternatively, provide an option in the variable definition: “Treat whitespace-only sources as empty.”

   This is an urgent request. It affects daily workflows in publishing, education, and large-scale editorial projects and needs to be prioritized.

9. "Reverse on Roll Off" doesn't work

   The feature "Reverse on Roll Off" does not appear to work.

   I have a simple button set up with an On Roll Over event to Play an Animation. The button works as intended.
   However, I have the "Reverse on Roll Off" checkbox ticked, presuming it would automatically apply a "Reverse" command to the Animation when the mouse cursor Rolls Off the button.

   It does not.

   Due to the nature of my button and animation design, setting up separate "On Roll Over" and "On Roll Off" Events on the same button is not an option, because the various combinations of the "Hide Before Animating" and "Hide After Animating" options would cause my animation to disappear completely depending on the button activity.

   Through Google Search I saw another reference to this bug from 2017, with Adobe's reply being that this is a "SWF only feature", and would be documented as such. However, in 2025, and publishing in the EPUB format, this feature should either work correctly or be removed as SWF is long since deprecated as a format.

11. (Ver. 20.5) When measuring with the Gap Tool, the measurement remains grayed out

    (Ver. 20.5) When measuring with the Gap Tool, the measurement remains grayed out and is very difficult to read, especially in dark mode. When measuring with another tool, e.g. the Measure Tool, the boxes with coordinates and measurements activate.

13. idlm

    I worked on a catalogue for a festival and finished my project, then exported a package as requested by the printer.
    Of course, the package included fonts, images, and also an IDML file.

    The problem is that the export to IDML introduced some errors that ended up in the printed version. My original InDesign file looked perfectly fine, but in the IDML, some objects appeared that were not in the InDesign file at all.

    This has created a serious issue for me, as it now seems like the mistake is mine. However, I never opened the IDML to double-check everything, since this has never happened before and the IDML is usually generated automatically just for compatibility purposes.

    What should I do now? And what happens if the client holds me responsible for sending something incorrect to print?

16. When I launching InDesign

    Lately, when I launch InDesign, a dialog box immediately appears that reads: "You cannot reverse this change with the Edit>Unod command. Do you want to continue anyway?" (see screenshot) and you only have two choices: Cancel or OKAY. Being forced to choose OKAY, I'll open a Recent file of some sort, and the stupid dialog box follows me there as well, and sure enough, if I make a change and go to Command Z (I'm on a Mac), the Undo command is ignored and in fact Edit>Undo is greyed out in the menu bar. This has GOT to be a bug, right? I have figured out an annoying way of going around the problem. I'll make some tiny change — like adding an extra period at the end of a sentence and then deleting it — and then choose REVERT, after which time the issue seem to resolve itself. Again, it only seems to appear upon the initial launching of the program.

17. properties>fill panel expands off page

    Indesign Version 20.5 on OSX Tahoe

    When inDesign is at the top of the screen (i.e maximum screen size), opening the properties panel and then clicking on fill extends the fill sub menu up the screen, rendering half of the sub menu not visible unless you drag the whole application down. I don't think this is intended UI behaviour (hope not), and it's really frustrating to work with.

18. Add colour values to swatch list when placing file from Illustrator

    It would be beneficial if, when placing a file in an InDesign document from illustrator, that the colour value information of that file be added to the Swatches menu. Strangely, the colour values do import into my Swatches when I copy and paste an object I’ve created in Illustrator onto my artboard but not when I place/import that object within a picture box.

    Another minor gripe - when pasting an object it does not retain the name of the colour if it has a custom name - it only brings the swatch in as the colour values.

20. Character style applied to Table of Contents header

    When creating a book's table of contents (TOC), if you apply a character style to the first chapter, that style is applied to the TOC entry but it's also wrongly applied to the TOC header as well. It seems to be taking whatever character style that's applied to the first letter in the first chapter.

    I have a sample file I can send.
    Tested in InDesign 2024 and 2022 for Mac.
    Discussed here:
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/character-style-applied-to-table-of-contents-header/m-p/15256113#M619872
