Placing illustrator files is very very very slow after update
After updating AI and INDD, placing AI files into INDD is taking a very long time. I made an update to an AI file that was placed into an existing INDD files that contains 13 placed AI files. I only updated a few of the linked AI files. Prior to the AI and INDD update, updating these placed links took a few seconds each max. Now, just to update the two links takes about 2 minutes.
This MAY be an AI bug, but I don't know how make that determination as I updated bothat the same time.

InDesign version 13.0.1 x64. Dynamic spelling does not show misspelled words with red underline as you type, prefs are set to that.
InDesign version 13.0.1 x64. Dynamic spelling does not show misspelled words with red underline as you type, prefs are set to that. But if you do right mouse button, or spell check, it does know the word is misspelled, offering correction suggestions. We really need to see it "dynamically" as one types; this feature is not working.
2 votesPlease check to see if you are not in one of the following Screen Modes : Preview/Bleed/Slug. In these modes, the red underline for Dynamic Spelling is not shown.

Can't scroll through pages in presentation mode
2017.1 Release, 12.1.0.56 Build
macOS Sierra version 10.12.6When I go to the presentation mode, I am not able to scroll through the pages. Whether i use the trackpad, arrow keys, or change the keyboard shortcuts.
6 votesHello All,
There has to be a scenario in which the scrolling of the document is not working in presentation mode because, otherwise it is not reproducible at our end.
I can observe that, pages do not scroll while making a vertical gesture on the mouse, but through other methods such as, click, arrow key pages can be scrolled easily.Are you able to scroll using clicks and arrow keys?
Is it the case that, the issue is intermittent or only happens in a specific scenario?
Also, let us know your machine details such its configuration, OS version and Id versionThis can help us to get to the bottom of the issue
Thanks,

hyperlink
Interactive PDF not exporting hyperlinks correctly
Everytime I export an interactive PDF with hyperlinks, the links have %0D automatically at the end. The hard return code is not in the link in InDesign, I've tried to remove it several times within the working document and Acrobat with no luck. Seems to be a bug.

eyedropper
Eyedropper not working in CC2018 (ME enabled). When I click a blank square then use eyedropper tool to copy color values from an existing vector graphic, the vector graphic container changes color instead. And while testing just now, if I draw two squares, one black one white, then select one to copy the color of the other, the selected square disappears. Text blocks fail to copy too and all eyedropper options are selected. This wasn't an issue with CC17.

There are two different issues mentioned here, and let me address them separately:
1. Clicking a blank square then using eyedropper tool to copy color values from an existing vector graphic, the vector graphic container changes color instead.

If I draw two squares, one black one white, then select one to copy the color of the other, the selected square disappears.
