1. History panel logs issues

   The history panel does not allow some actions to be undone. One is the act of stepping back several steps. As long as no new actions are done, you can step forward again, but as soon as you complete a new action, the inbetween steps disappear. The undo/redo history is also cleared; only new actions completed after that point can be undone. This is a problem because is makes it impossible to test various options and then quickly return to the original option, as I have often done in the past. Instead, the desired option must be set up again from scratch. (tested in v. 20.1, but also caused issues in older versions)

   • Actions logged appear to update/condense/disappear when switching to and from the Type tool. For example, if I create a text frame, enter some text, and then apply a stroke, the “Create text frame” option is no longer visible in the history panel, nor can it be undone with undo. If I create a 2nd text frame, all the previous steps for the first text frame disappear. Because “open” remains as the first action, it appears as if no other new actions were completed, but this is entirely false. Losing the ability to undo one’s actions is a serious hindrance. Undo history should not be cleared until the document is closed. I have also noticed there is sometimes a significant lag when switching to and from the text tool, and I suspect it has something to do with this. (tested in v. 20.1, did not notice before)

   • Many actions logged are too vague to identify, especially when multiple instances of the same action occur. It would be ideal if, instead of “Typing,” one would see “Typing 123…” Link updates could include a right click option to jump to the affected link. Alternately, selecting a step could select the affected text or object, or a page number could be made visible in the panel. It would also be helpful to save a thumbnail at certain points. (in all versions I have used, current version is 20.1)

4. Font Selector Broken

   When I select a font in indesign 2024 (select drop down, start to type name of font "script", select font ) it works fine
   When I attempt the same in indesign 2026 (select drop down, start to type name of font "script", system shows me fonts beginning with the second or third letter I typed, e.g. "Cricket")
   This is broken. (no font filters selected, win 10, over 3000 fonts installed...)

10. Conversion Process

    I have ran into a bug twice now where InDesign is forcing me to run a conversion on my indd files and when it does it inserts a '/' symbol in a paragraph. Unfortunately this was not apparent and the typo went into 145 paperback copies.

14. 2-9% CPU usage when application is in background/minimized - happens on multiple computers

    2-9% CPU usage when application is in background/minimized. This happens on multiple computers. Older machines have seen up to 30% in IDLE. My newer PC runs 2-3% even with only one document open.

    This is unsustainable both for PC resource use, energy efficiency, and usability.

    There is no GOOD reason for this.

    It has been an issue for multiple years now. Please fix!

15. PDF conversion

    Still does not work with a simple remittance envelope we have - see attached screenshot. After the conversion, the entire document is black and all the fonts are missing. After every update of InDesign we try again and get the same results.

16. InDesign crashes when updating review link

    InDesign Version: 20.1
    OS: macOS Sequoia 15.3.1
    Device: MacBook Pro (14in 2021)
    Memory: 32G
    Chip: Apple M1 MAX

    I regularly update a large file. Any time I try to update the Share for Review link, InDesign crashes. In smaller files, I receive an error message saying, "There was an error updating the artifact." The link will successfully update, but not without crashing or errors.

17. [ID-4275271] Find/Replace Dialog box functionality was changed in 20.3 tabbing from Find now goes to the Special Character button

    in InDesign 20.3 there was a change to the find/replace dialog box. When I tab out of the "Find what:" field it goes into "Specials characters for search" button instead of the way it used to work where it would tab into "Change to:" field.

    I work on large books with data that I cannot control how it comes in and it is not connected. These books have three versions so there are three layers to work on. I need to make the same changes to all three layers. I have a rhythm, and I tend to work fast. At this point it is pure muscle memory (18 years of doing it this way) when using find and replace. Trying to remember to add an extra tab is constantly slowing me down and really frustrating me.

    If you cannot change it back, PLEASE give me the option to disable it or turn the special character button off so it will bypass it. And work the way it used to. I do not use it, have never in 18 years used it and won't use it.

    I was able to turn off everyone single choice in that button and even with nothing to select it still has the option to open an empty drop-down menu.

    I looked at many different forums. Went through numerous settings, If I missed a way to do this I apologize and would love to know where to look.

    Help me Obi-wan, you’re my only hope.

    Thank you

    This is an enhancement aimed at providing users easier access to all controls via keyboard navigation within a panel/dialog.

19. Moving Pages calls for use of Absolute Page Number

    1. InDesign 21.0.1 x64 (on Windows 11)
    2. I want to move a page from a document where I have changed the Numbering & Section Options so that the document includes multiple pages with the same page number. I open the document that includes the page I want to move, and open the document which will receive that page. I select a page in the pages panel, right click, and select "Move Page." The Move Pages dialog box appears, and I select the document and location where I want the page to be moved and click OK.
    3. The highlighted page will be copied to the correct location in the destination document.
    4. Instead, I receive an error message asking me to identify the correct page using the absolute page number. In earlier versions of InDesign, if I tried to use the Move Pages dialog box by simply typing in a page number, it would ask me to define the page using the absolute page number, but as long as I had highlighted the page I wanted to move and then activated the Move Page function, InDesign would automatically identify the page I wanted to move without asking me to define the absolute page number.
    5. I have uploaded images of the dialog box and the error message.

20. InDesign window doesn't automatically scale when switching between laptop and an external monitor, and application screen goes blank

    This issue has been posted before, with no solution. Ever since one of the more recent updates to InDesign, the application window no longer automatically scales to fit the screen when connected to an external monitor and, when it's connected, the application window is blank—showing only the pasteboard color across the whole application window.
    So you have to hit the "+" to expand the app window to the full screen area, close the file window, and reopen the file in order to work again.
    Similarly, if you hit "Shift + W" to view Presentation Mode, the application window always re-acquires the window size from the laptop. So you have to hit "+" to expand it every time.
    These are bugs that never used to be a problem ... and they take tons of micro-minutes away from my standard workflow.
    These are really important issues to resolve. I'm surprised they have continued for so long ...
