Why the strikethrough & highlight functions are hidden?
Why are the strikethrough & highlight functions of share for review hidden?
Hi. I was really looking forward to the ability to use the Share for Review feature. I find it an immense help for reviewing and proofreading publications.
But when I start using it, the strikethrough & highlight functions do not appear in the browsers.
However, looking in more detail, I see that the options are there, but they are hidden.
I attach images
Can you tell me how to solve this problem?
I am at your disposal for any questions.

Wrong swatch color for color using hsb values
I'm using InDesign version 16.1 on Mac OS X 11.3
When setting a color using HSB values, the color which is created is wrong.
In the screen shot I added you can see two swatches, both have the same related values.
One is set via HSB the other by RGB.
The HSB preview is totally wrong.2 votes -
Issues in rendering some Assamese conjuncts
The Assamese 'reph' and 'rakaar' are not properly rendered while using the Assamese font "Banikanta", a font released by Govt. of Assam in India. The font can be downloaded from http://www.publicationboardassam.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Banikanta.zip
The font works well in all the other tools and platforms including MS-Word, Libre office etc.
Being associated with the development of this font, I have seen that the issue is seen due to the problem of the improper rendering of Adobe InDesign. In this font we have skipped the mapping of Bengali "Ra" (U+09B0) to construct the 'reph' and 'rakaar" as it is not used in Assamese and…

Some objects won't resize randomly
I'm fining with this latest version that some objects, particularly text will only resize to a certain size. See my screenshot - this is a 1x3 meter banner and I cannot size the text any bigger than what you see on the screenshot it just snaps back. I know for a fact the text is nowhere near Indesign's maximum size as it's 150pt. I can manually change the size of the text to 500pt plus but this throws the layout off. I'm absolutely sick and tired of these constant bugs in this programme.

Inability to process transparency effects in rollover button states.
I want to create a rollover effect for my TOC. It's a three page TOC. There are almost 200 listings. I cannot make every line a button. That would be crazy. So I wanted to just place the text on one layer, and a 50% transparent box that is a button that appears on rollover. But evidently that cannot be done? How else might I handle this?

Small interface and large cursors with duel monitors on Windows with Indesign 2021
I am using a 15' Dell laptop with 27' Asus monitor and whenever I move the InDesign window from my laptop to my larger monitor to work on, the interface stays small and pixelated. The cursor is overly large and I am unable to change the UI interface to fix this. The bug has disrupted my workflow and ability to utilize all of InDesign's feature effectively.

Mac InDesig 16.1 opens files on Synology NAS as read-only
Has anyone report any permission problems with Mac OS Big Sur 11.2.3? I am opening InDesign files and on my Mac and they open fine. On another Mac, same OS, they are opening READ-ONLY. The permissions on the Synology haven't changed since we bought it.
I already contacted Synology. We have 4 Macs running the latest InDesign. This read-only problem is happening on 2 of them. We are connecting AFP.
We did try on one Mac to reboot in recovery-mode and reinstall the OS. We also uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign. Neither fixed the problem.2 votes -
Share for Review - Not Working
I have tried share for review both with clients (who have CC) and with my team members (who all also have CC) and have been unsuccessful every time. When selecting the link that is sent to the users email, they are then redirected to their "Synced Files" and not the review link.
This has happened whether we share it as private, public w/ password, or public. We have also tried logging out of CC and back in with no luck.

Share for Review breaks when INDD files are duplicated for versioning
Everyone I know who uses InDesign duplicates files regularly to create various versions of documents. Share for Review seems to have a major problem with this. When I create multiple versions of a document by duplicating an original, InDesign cannot seem to differentiate between the various versions, even if they have different names and are completely separate files. The only solution seems to be if you have only one document open at a time and break the link to start over. It's maddening, as I have 9 versions of important documents that I need to share for review, and when…

close book in event handler is out of sync
function closeBooks() {
var books = app.books.everyItem().getElements();
var i, ilen = books.length;for (i = 0; i < ilen; i++) { if (books[i].modified) { books[i].close(SaveOptions.ASK); } } alert('done');}
if you call the closeBooks function, everything works fine.
But if the function is used as a handler, the "done" message appears immediately, before the for loop complete.try adding a beforeQuit eventListener:
app.addEventListener('beforeQuit', closeBooks);and close InDesign having one or more modified books to see this (strange) behaviour.
The same function works fine if you target documents.

InDesign Buttons and Forms NEEDS an "image field"
InDesign Buttons and Forms NEEDS an "image field" due to ease of ADA Accessibility logical reading order ease. Adding image form fields in Acrobat is fine but obviously more tedious work is required to order properly. This is a much needed feature in todays ADA demanding environment

Share for Review: Image Quality
Can we have an option where Share > Share for Review has a high-quality view as opposed to the low-res preview (see file attached- Review (left) and Original (right)) please?
18 votesShare for Review is to quickly share a design that is still a work-in-progress with the Reviewer(s) for quick feedback. Since the review opens in a browser for the reviewer, it has to load quickly even on slow networks, that’s why the image quality has been kept low deliberately so that the page loads quickly without long wait times. Using high-res views will slow down the loading of pages in the browser considerably, marring the experience.
Hope this helps.
