Clearer online navigation arrows on web - Accessibility & UX Improvements
Currently, the page navigation arrows are not defined enough for accessibility and clearer navigation. If someone has a published doc that is a white background, one can not see the page navigations in the main view clearly at all and people assume it's just one page. Also, the hover-over fade also can cause the assumption that it's one page.
A suggested solution is to make the directional arrows, non-fade and a 1pt thicker and more defined drop shadow...

Weird Bug with Resize to Frame
Resize frame to content messes up and I'm not sure if it's something to do with a setting I have set since this doesn't always happen.
Basically, I'll have a frame around some content with text in it.
When I hit "resize frame to content" ctrl-alt-c, it resizes the frame to the full document width, which looks like the example.
I obviously expect the frame to resize to the content, not to be super wide like the entire document.

Unknown character inserted before hyphen in PDF export
InDesign v16.1
We have an InDesign file where the word "papier" is hyphenised by InDesign in this way "pa-pier", but after exporting in PDF, an unknown character was inserted before the hyphen and is shown as the letter "u" overlapping a displaced hyphen. Copy/pasting the word from the PDF gives this: pa�-pier
If the PDF is exported again, the problem is not reproduced.

'see' reference in index
InDesign CC, latest version
Strange bug (or at least unwanted behavior) I encountered today in Indesign:
For a new book project, I used an earlier book as a template (a lot of the settings and styles should be the same), replacing all the text and images. The index in the earlier book contained 'see'-references. For the new book I generated a new index ('replace old index' checked), and the 'see'-references (just these) from the old book also showed up!
I would expect checking the 'replace old index' box would prevent this.
Not a big deal (the faulty entries were easy…1 vote -

Nested styles no longer working.
InDesign 2021
Used to be able to set a nested style up to or through any specific character (for example a : . Now that option is not working any more. Can only select from the drop down menu. Can work around with a grep style but it's not as easy to get it right.

Cannot see open file windows (v 16.3.2)
I upgraded to InDesign v 16.3.2 this morning and now I am not able to use it, as file windows are not visible. The Windows menu lists the files that are open, but they cannot be seen.
Update: discovered that files can be seen if Application Frame is switched off under the Windows menu, but nothing can be seen if it's switched on again.

Multiple Share for Review Issues
I work with a team of 6 designers and we are all experiencing regular and multiple different issues with Share for Review – we are all using the latest version 2021 and are needing to try multiple things each time with varied results to get Share for Review to work – these include:
1. Restarting Indesign
2. Logging and in about of Adobe CC
3. Trashing preferences
4. Saving a file CopyThs is extremely frustrating, wasting a lot of time and energy and money – I am sincerely hoping you are aware of all of these issues and are…

Letter "a" does not appear

Endnotes are tagged incorrectly when exporting to Accessible PDF from InDesign 2021
In InDesign 2021, endnotes are not nested inside of a <Note> tag like they should be. Now only the Endnote number is in a <Note> tag and everything else is in a <P> tag. Normal behavior is to put each Endnote in its entirety within a <Note> tag. In addition, for several versions Endnotes and Footnotes are in a <Note> tag but then there's a <P> tag within the <Note> tag. The <P> tag is unnecessary and causes an error when trying to validate Accessible PDF. Please remove the <P> tag within <Note> tags when exporting to tagged PDF.

We’ll review this shortly.—

Blank EPUB Interactivity Panel in InDesign 16.3.2 on MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) running OS 10.15.7 Catalina.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign. I've installed it again deleting all old prefs. I've restarted reinstalled software and dumped prefs on start up holding down Shift/Ctrl/ALT/Cmd keys, and 'Yes' clicked when asked if I want to delete preferences file. I am at my wits end with this issue.

sticky rollover state on form checkboxes and radio buttons
I'm having an issue with checkboxes and radio buttons. I have a normal, off, rollover, and on state. The off state is 70% paper fill, the on and rollover states are slightly larger graphics with 100% fill and drop shadows, and the on state also has a green fill.
When exported to interactive pdf, the rollover state sticks and stays even after mouse out, causing the off state to rest on top of the rollover state. If I continue to mouse over the element, the drop shadow will get thicker and increasingly darker until black.
I'm using InDesign 16.2.1 on…

ID 2021 (16.1) slow performance with all palettes open
Running ID 2021 (16.1) on MacPro (2019) 3.3 Ghz / 192Gb / AMD Radeon Pro W5700X 16 Gb / MacOS 10.15.7.
So, I would like to report a bug related to the palettes in ID. I run a 2 monitor setup with my work on one screen and all my ID palettes on on the second screen. I have run this way for 10+ years. This has always been OK until I moved from InDesign 2019 (14.0.3) to ID 2021 (16.1) 2 months ago.
The performance of ID 16.1 is unacceptably slow. It is as if you have a really…

opacity lines bug
Is this a bug or it's something I messed up? See the image to watch what it's happening when I change oppacity in a graphic. When exported no lines are visible, it's only in the previsualization.
