Drag-Duplicating using Alt/Opt key does not work if key is pressed after dragging
I am working on Mac OS Big Sur v 11.3.1 using Indesign CS 2020 16.2.1.
I cannot duplicate images using the command option shift key.
I have also noticed that holding the shift key down to proportionately size images is also not working. Could you advise if this issue can be solved? I have read the thread posted in 2020 and it said it was under review. I tried the workaround suggested changing live Screen drawing to "never" but this has not changed anything. Please help! Thanks.1 vote -
Slow performance - spinning wheel - AdobeFnt22.lst
Hi Adobe, we are still having major issues with a lot of spinning wheels in InDesign version 15.1.1. because of the AdobeFnt22.lst files that are created with every document. Basically when we open a document it resyncs/updates the AdobeFnt22.lst file of every document that was previously worked from that Mac. This is causing a lot of network traffic and spinning wheels in InDesign. The problem is fixed if we restart the Mac or rename the "Document fonts" folder so that InDesign no longer uses the fonts so does not create an "AdobeFnt.lst" file. Can you please sort this out, it…

Pages Pallet - page numbers under thumbnails hidden under last row of a small pallet
- InDesign 15.1.3
- Create a document where the Pages Pallet is smaller than the thumbnails in the pallet.
- Expected to see page numbers under the Thumbnails on the last row.
- Actual Result: The last row shows the thumbnail, but the page numbers are hidden, but only in the WORKSPACE views of: Advanced Book Essentials Essentials Classic …and my custom one (probably based on one of those above.)
The page numbers appear to work correctly in the other WORKSPACE layouts.
Attached are a couple images with the page numbers hidden, and one where it is displayed correctly (The correct one is using…

The Same Adobe Font is Considered Different for Different Users
InDesign Version: 16.2.1
Steps to reproduce issue: Open an InDesign file, set font to "Montserrat" (the Adobe Font version), save. Another person opens up the file. Instead of displaying "Montserrat", the font shows as "Montserrat (OTF)" in the font menu and all the text is highlighted red because that "font" isn't activated. If that person changes the font to "Montserrat" on their computer and saves the file, the same issue happens on my end. It's essentially treating both of our Montserrat fonts as different fonts, even though we're both using Adobe Fonts.
Expected result: Montserrat will display properly when either…

The UI is not scaling correctly on Windows 4k screens - UI too small
Hi, I am having problems with the UI Scaling on InDesign on my 4k laptop. I am using the recommended system scaling of 250% which works well with other apps except for Adobe, most noticeably InDesign. I pay a premium price for Adobe CC which should be reflected in their products. The UI is way too small on InDesign compared to Illustrator and Photoshop.
I also have problems in all adobe apps when using an external monitor to expand my screen size. Dragging the apps from one monitor to the other does all sorts of weird things.
I have attached…

scale tool freeze
I am using the latest InDesign CC 2021 and my operating system is: MacOS Catalina version:10.15.4. I can't use the scale tool very often. It happens to any file, not limited to a specific file. What happens is if I use scale tool for more than 3-4 times, the software will freeze. So in the dialogue box, I am not able to click into and enter any number, it is just frozen. I can't even right-click at the app icon to select "quit", I can only force quit through Apple command.
Guess what! I just create a new Indesign file,…3 votes -

Share for Review SYNC Broken
I use "Share" > "Share for Review" on a Program for review by multiple departments for edits. I received notifications of over 200 edits, but upon opening the InDesign file to begin changes, the "Window" > "Comments" > "Review" Panel data is empty and again says "Create Review".
So the connection from my online review and the source InDesign is broken. Additionally, there is no option to save that online version as a pdf to import the comments via that option in "Window" > "Comments" > "PDF Comments"
12 votesWe’ve released an update to InDesign – 15.1.2
Please update to this latest version and see if the issues you were facing earlier have got resolved.
Remember to check how you are signed into your CC account and if need be, sign out and sign in again. Since Share for Review is a service and dependent on your login to your Adobe ID account, it is important that CCD app is working well with your credentials.

Media panel gone HUGE
So, after running in a while on the new Adobe 2020 app, I noticed that the Media panel started to grow in size each time I opened the tab. Before I could notice, the Media panel was absolutely huge.
I tried to:
Reset the workplace
Reset the UI scalling
Uninstall and Install again InDesign 2020 (While removing UI Preferences)
Restart PC
Nothing has worked.
The only solution that seems to work as of right now is to downgrade to 2019.

InDesign 2021 v16.2.1: Glitchy preview on opening
InDesign 2021 v16.2.1: I have been experiencing viewing issues with the latest update. Whenever I open a file the preview is either blank (grey) or doesn't show correctly/looks glitchy. This happens on all documents that were previously fine. The preview glitch appears periodically when I'm working on the document as well as first open so I have to either close the document and reopen or, strangely, turn on/off the rulers? I haven't seen this before – any help appreciated! I have attached an initial open and after I turn on rulers screenshots to demonstrate. Please can you help?
