Textoption
Guten Tag
Seit meiner vorletzten InDesign-Version (20.01) auf meinem MacBook Pro, 16", 2023) kann ich den Text nicht mehr im Fenster "Textoptionen" markieren.
Ansonsten ist alles sichtbar.
Vielen DankHello
Since my penultimate InDesign version (20.01) on my MacBook Pro, 16", 2023), I can no longer select the text in the "Text Options" window.
Otherwise, everything is visible.

not opening files
Version of Adobe InDesign, InCopy or InDesign Server - Version 20 (beta), running on Windows 11
Steps to reproduce the issues - In Windows file explorer, I double click on an .indd file
Expected result - InDesign would then open the file
Actual result - InDesign opens, but will not open the file. The only ways I can open an .indd file in InDesign is by using the Open command or by dragging and dropping an .indd file into it.

Logitech mouse zoom in/out not working
I am on a Mac (Sequoia) using Adobe InDesign (20.1) with a Logitech MX Master 3 (and Logi Options+ version 1.85.655119). For years, I've been able to use the thumb wheel of my mouse to zoom in and out (assigned in Logi Options+), but for some reason in the past month or so, this functionality stopped working. I've uninstalled/reinstalled Adobe + Logi apps, ensured firmware is current, etc. This is a major workflow efficiency killer — would love to see it resolved.

incopy
I am using InCopy v. 20.0 with DropBox. When I open a document, changes that other teammates have made to items in the Assignments panel have not automatically updated like they used to. This is a new issue with the most recent update. Prior to the update, when I opened a file, any changes by myself or other people have updated automatically, but now I have to manually update each one in the Assignments panel. Is there a fix or a setting change that can address this?

Screen tearing while scrolling
I'm having issues with screen tearing in InDesign 2023 and 2024. I've tried resizing UI, testing an earlier version of InDesign (hence 2023), making sure my computer was set to best performance over battery saver, etc. Inevitably when I scroll around, lines of text will jump around or break. I'm operating a brand new windows 11 computer with 16gb of RAM, and this is a two page InDesign document with one image, so...

Output to PDF removes bleed
Summary: Output to PDF removed bleed
Details:
I laid out a book in Indesign using the 'Book' feature, with several similar sections or documents linked as a 'Book'. Each document based on the same original so all had same settings.
I needed to output to PDF for the printer, Mixam UK. I downloaded the printer's settings, which include: output to single pages, bleed with no marks, with 'use document bleed' checked.
I had set up the documents in Indesign in spreads with 3mm bleed as usual from the start. When looking at the output settings BEFORE output, I could see…

InDesign crashes when trying to cut, and/or copy, a table from the paragraph level
Different versions of InDesign have this problem including 2023, 2024, and 2025 - on Mac Monteray.
If I attempt to highlight tables from the paragraph level and copy or cut, either with menus or key commands, InDesign will either immediately crash, or beach ball a bit and then crash.
Upon reopening InDesign, the menus will not appear. I have to use the keyboard commands to quit InDesign again. Upon reopening, it will work properly again... that is unless I attempt to copy or cut another table.
Please fix! I'm constantly working with complicated tables and the only way to get…

Share for Review does not update

program freezes after Save As
InDesign v.19.4 freezes after Save As is used. The program is inaccessible and has to be force quit and restarted. It will reopen the document when it starts up again with no data lost. An annoyance, but at least no work is forfeited.

Extra Print Dialog Box
I updated my operating system to Window 11 last week. Now, every time I go to print from InDesign, when I hit the setup screen to enter my printer settings, I get an additional dialog box. On the box I have to click the "more settings" link to get to my printer.
I go to my printer's dialog box, select my settings there, click print, then I have to click print on that new dialog box which takes me back to the original InDesign print dialog box. All of my settings on there for the project that I had selected…

Unable to select multiple objects when hidden spreads are in document
InDesign version: 20.1
There seems to be a bug that occurs when there are hidden spreads in the document, where you cannot click and drag to select items on a visible spread. Also when you copy content from one spread to another it doesn't transfer to the current selected page. See below for my experience:
Steps to reproduce issue (part 1):
1. create a document with multiple pages (e.g., 26 pages).
2. Hide some spreads throughout document. (e.g., page 1, page 5, pages 20-23, etc).
3. Attempt to select multiple objects by clicking and dragging.Expected result: objects selected!

Want to be able to anchor an object to the text it belongs with AND have the text wrap around it
Because of the way text anchors work in Indesign, I always have to anchor objects that require text wrap to something ABOVE the actual text I want the image to stay with. Why does Indesign work this way - i.e., not allowing text to wrap before the anchor? This is a problem the image will now be separated from it's text when the text breaks a page, defeating the whole purpose of anchoring. Is this really so hard to fix?

Copy text in Indesign
Good morning
I have a problem, every time I copy over a text, no matter if I do it with ctrl+c or with the right mouse button, the program gets stuck for a few seconds. That supposedly copied text cannot be pasted in another application.
