PDF-Roll-Over STILL BROKEN in 2021 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You already know the issue for years but you do not solve it.
If you make a interactive pdf with indesign and have some buttons with a state change on roll-over the alternate roll-over-layout does get stuck sometimes and the layout does not revert to normal automatically.
This is very embarrassing when pitching a client and he just thinks you are too stupid to do it. But it's Adobe's fault. FIX IT ALREADY IT HAS BEEN YEARS!!!!!!!!

When converting type to outlines on a curve, the text breaks.
Adobe InDesign 17.0
Restarted, reinstalled, removed preferences. Nothing corrects this error.
Ideally the type would be as show before the type is converted to outlines. Instead this happens: https://www.screencast.com/t/fQxHtfNE

New problem when creating new Book
Since latest update creating a new book asks to save each added document and replace each document being added. Add 5o documents and you have to hit save, then hit replace for every one of them before the book is created!

InDesign 15.1.1 English dictionary missing plural word spellings
Since the update every plural word version is not in the dictionary. Simple, basic words like 'years' and 'days' now show as a spelling error. It was working fine before the latest update. Get it fixed - it's pointless having the spellchecker when so many basic words are missing!

GREP search failed to match all text in a story
We use to be able to search all text in a story by using this (?s).+ code. It’s working fine in CS6. But in CC2019, 2020, and 2021 on both Mac and Windows it will fail to select all text in the story if there is more than ~ 50000 character. Only the first ~ 50000 will be selected.
This might be related to an old bug that was introduced in 14.0.2 that was fixed in 14.0.3.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a document with one story containing more than 50000 characters
2. Do a GREP Find using (?s).+A…

pinwheel
InDesign versions 15.1.4, 16.4, and 17.0
Mac, system Big Sur 11.6.1There are no steps or expected results other than stability and quick performance.
No matter what I am doing—working with text or images, scrolling, working in menus, etc.—I am experiencing the rainbow pinwheel and delays of 30 seconds to a few minutes while the application is hung up. This is happening every couple minutes. Work that should take 15 minutes is taking 30 or more.
I've tried disabling the preflight, changed the display performance to typical, allowed greeking, etc., but nothing has helped. I first experienced this in version…

RGB to CMYK
Make it easier to switch between CMYK and RGB. I'm currently in RGB and have no idea how to get back to CMYK.
My document says that I am in CMYK but when I go to edit colours or use the colour tab at all, everything is in RGB.

pdf file exported from Indesign does not play video as it used to do in my PC before
pdf (interactive) file exported from Indesing doesn't show video; it only plays the audio track and shows it as if it would be an .mp3 As published in the User Guide, a video should still play although the controls for play / stop will not be available. I am using Indesign version 16.4

Save as... Open, Place... dialog panels too small
In Big Sur, the Save as... (cmd-S) Open (cmd-O) and Place... (cmd-D) dialog boxes are too small. They only offer between three and six lines of text. However, you can drag the panel out to see more folders/files, BUT, it doesn't stick. When you've closed the dialog and open it again, it has reverted to the smaller size.
Photoshop doesn't seem to suffer with this issue, but Illustrator does.

spellchecker causes InDesign to crash
I've had this occur across multiple files; some new, some old.
I cannot stop the behaviour from happening despite cache and com. dumps, prefernence resets, etc. - whenever I run Spellchecker InDesign disappears/crashes. I'm losing money constantly as I'm a designer who outputs a lot of multi page brochures, books, magazines, etc. and my efficiency has ground to a halt.8 votesThe issue has been fixed in the latest release of InDesign – InDesign 2021.
Please update to this new version of InDesign to get the fix.—
