Edit and Copy text box, delete another box, copied box is lost
MacBook Pro (2018, 13-inch, 2.3 Ghz Intel Core i5), with High Sierra (10.13.6), and InDesign (14.0.1).
I have two text boxes - Box1 and Box2 - with text in them.
I edit the text in Box1, copy Box1 (not the contents; the text box itself).
I delete Box2 by pressing the Backspace key while Box2 is selected.
I paste, and get Box2.
Expected functionality: The box I specifically copied - Box1 - should be resident in the clipboard. Not Box2.
Deleting an item should NOT copy it to the clipboard and overwrite the previous clipboard contents.

Using text variables causes highlighting text in PDF to be inconsistent/scrumbled
When exporting to PDF from a file including text variables, it results in text in pdf that it is impossible to highlight correctly. and therefore - it is impossible to mark PDF comments on it. Screenshot and PDF files are attached.
It only happened with ARIAL font, and only in certain book files (that were created in previous ID version). I couldn't recreate the bug in another file.
When I removed the text variables the PDF was exported fine.
I also had another kind of conditional text I made in these files - it was a sentence written inside the…1 vote -

white overprint with placed INDD
I stumbled across a strange phenomenon today. I have an INDD file (file 1), which is placed as such in another INDD file (file 2). In this file 1 there is a Swiss cross, which is placed as EPS. If this placed file 1 is exported as PDFX-4, everything looks correct. However, if the file 2 with the placed file 1 is exported as PDFX-4, something strange happens. The Swiss cross disappears in the PDF or the white is set to overprint. However, this is neither stored in file 1 nor in the EPS.
I have the following

Character Panel/Properties Panel font display font not correct for GREP-Styles
Indesign CC 14.0.1, x64
IF a GREP-style is at work formatting found text-style-ranges, then the font style dropdown in character panel/properties panel/control panel, may not correctly reflect the font in a selection . Please see screenshot attached.
In the screenshot, a paragraph format grep style has applied a character style "bold" to the word "Foto:" and "Text:". The user has selected the characters OT from the word "Foto:" as an example. The character panel font style should say "Bold", ... as you can see "Light caps" is NOT correct.

Keyboard commands do not respond in document until text field is selected
Indesign 14.0.2 x64
Windows 10After opening any document, the keyboard does not work. Print, open, and quick key selections for tool will not register until I select the type tool with the mouse, and click on a text field so that the cursor appears.
I then have to click on the selection black arrow tool for any keys to start working. I use mainly quick key shortcuts and commands all day, so this occurs every new document opened.
1 voteCould you please try clearing up(or renaming) your preferences and cache for InDesign 2019(14.0).
If you still face the issue after doing the above, please share with us some screenshots and(or) small video demonstrating the problem.-InDesign Team

Arabic
Using Adobe Arabic font, and paragraph set to Adobe World-Ready Paragraph Composer, when I copy in Arabic with a period at the end of the sentence, InDesign is interpreting the period as Roman/English text and placing it to the far right of the sentence, instead of at the end of the sentence (far left).
This is new since I last worked in these files in March of this year.

Paragraph Return is changed into Paragraph Separator (U+2029)
Version: Indesign CC 2018 and Incopy CC 2018
The bug as described on https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2344905 still exists in the latest version.
During the exporting INDD into IDML, the error below occurs.
Certain Paragraph Return (\r) is changed into 'PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR'(U+2029) and the first sentence’s paragraph style is changed into the paragraph style of the second sentence which makes two sentences into one.
Every time this bug occurs, we have to open the INDD file and change “U+2029” into another character such as “space” and export it again.
Finally we found out that this error occurs when 8000th character is “Paragraph Return…11 votesThe fix for this issue is now available in the latest update 14.0.2 of InDesign 2019.

GREP failure
InDesign 2019 14.0.2 has created a new bug with GREP. If you search for any character, InDesign jumps half way through the file.
So, for example, if you click the cursor at the start of the document, instead of GREP finding the very first character that you search for, it instead jumps towards the end of the document.
So, for example, if you do a search for the letter 'a' in GREP, it will miss most of the document out and find the first one towards the end of the document.
To confirm this, if you do a search and…1 voteBased on user response, closing this issue.
