InDesign 2022 - Wrong Icons in Toolbar
It looks like the icons for selection and direct selection are flip-flipped in the toolbar.
Selection should be black, and direct select should be white.

Can't open some Indesign files in finder
Since the latest 2022 update certain Indesign files will not open via finder - either by double clicking the file icon or going command>O. The app doesn't even acknowledge your action, only workaround is by opening via the app which is an absolute pain. Absolutely ridiculous.

Bug: overwriting embedded objects with not embedded ones keeps them imbedded
Indesign CC 2022, v17.
Steps to reproduce :
1. open two documents which have the same linked file (image) embedded
2. edit the image outside of ID.
3. relink the file in one of two documents, so it becomes unembedded
4. copy the unembedded file to the other document, overwriting the same, but still embedded object/image.Exprect result: the object in the target document should not be embedded anymore and it should be up-to-date.
What happens: depending on how the files is placed (inside a table cell or not) ID will only mark it as "it has been changed" by…

Swipe Gestures not working
'Swipe Gestures to navigate within pages' used to work earlier in both mobile phones and laptops.
But recently when I tried, Swipe Gestures are not working at all.
Adobe clearly mentions that publish online supports smooth gesture controls : https://helpx.adobe.com/in/indesign/using/publish-online.htmlPlease fix this ASAP.

object style override plus-sign when multiple elements selected
Object style made. Works fine.
Multiple items on page need same style. When applied to ONE item, styles menu looks "normal." When applied to multiple items, with items selected, the styles menu shows plus-sign after style name.
All of "clear overrides" options tried. Does not fix. Cannot verify that use of style is correct if styles panel gives false feedback.
In the past, earlier versions, I don't remember ever seeing this apparent conflict.

lose keyboard shortcuts
InDesign 17.1 on 2019 MBP, Catalina 10.15.7
All of the keyboard shortcuts involving the "command" key stop working (command + spacebar, command + shift, etc.). This usually happens after leaving the app open for a long time (during a long call, lunchtime, etc.) and they don't work again until the computer is restarted.1 vote -
Alt text missing on hyperlinks after "Export as Interactive PDF"
I work primarily in InDesign and create accessible PDFs. During the design stage, I always add the alt text when creating hyperlinks or adding images, and export it as an interactive PDF.
As we know, after updating beyond InDesign version 16.1, the hyperlink alt text will not appear on the Link tag, but instead, it appears on the "Link - OBJR" (aka "Annotation") tag within the Link tag.
I work on long reports that usually have hundreds of hyperlinks and this is a big and very time-consuming problem for me, so I reverted back to v 16.1.
I've been ignoring…

Anchored headings on even pages appear out of order in generated tables of contents
Using InDesign v17.1 on MacOS 12.2.1. On a 50 page document with facing pages, using custom positioned anchored level 2 headings that appear to the left of paragraphs and are aligned at the left side of the text frame. When generating a table of contents, the anchored headings on even pages appear before their corresponding level 1 headings. I've moved the anchored objects slightly inside the frame and changed the left margin but problem persists. When pushing this same text to an odd page and regenerate the TOC, the problem is fixed.

Pasting forced line breaks instead of end paragraphs (InDesign)
When pasting data from Excel, each row comes in with a Forced Line Break marker at the end, instead of an End Paragraph marker. This is a recent change within Indesign, as you used to be able to paste from excel into a table in Indesign, maintaining the proper rows and columns. Now when you paste in the same information, it doesn't recognize the end paragraph, and tries to put all the data in one row.
The same issue has been found when pasting text from Microsoft Word into Indesign - instead of End Paragraph markers, you get forced line…
