Accessibility-Tag Tree-Data Merge
ID 14.0.1, Mac Pro, Sierra 10.12.6
Tags are not in proper order in exported PDF
Using Data Merge to create many pages of text and table from large Excel file Col A-FF. Each row produces one page. The first section of the page tags are at the top of the tag tree, followed by the first section of each successive page. Then the Next tags (from the tables) are listed, again by successive pages.
To remediate, all (table) tags have to be moved to the proper page.2 votes -
InDesign totally unusable for large threaded tables after 2015 version
Using Windows 10 Pro, high end computer (Ryzen 1800X, 32Gb RAM, NVMe SSD, 1080Ti)

InDesign 14.0.1 is crashing hourly
For three days my InDesign 14.0.1 has been crashing almost exactly hourly. It just freezes and I get the spinning beachball. Only recourse is to re-start my Mac. I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. Prior to this, I had downloaded Lightroom... I thought this might have been the initial cause. I uninstalled Lightroom and all my Adobe products. Any ideas?
4 votesTo identify the cause of this issue, we had started our investigation with the aim to resolve it. You might have also received email from us seeking more details to help in our investigation.
We’ve concluded our investigation and came up with the finding : Either the issue is fixed in the latest release of InDesign or the issue was intermittent in nature at the time of its reporting and is not reproducible now.
We recommend you to upgrade to the latest version of InDesign 2020.0.1 (if you’re not already on it). It contains a lot of stability fixes.
If you still face this issue even after updating to the latest version of InDesign, please submit the crash report to us. (The guidelines to submit crash are available at (https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/submit-crash-reports.html)
We seek your support in our continual effort to improve InDesign.

Variable chapter number
The variable 'chapter number' gives a problem, wherever it is used it is represented as '1'.
Because chapter numbers and paragraph numbers are not included in the Continuous header, it is useful if it can be displayed separately.
Is it possible to include this numbering in the variable in the future (as an option)?2 votes -
Problems with zoom on tablets wacom
The Zoom function (Zoom In and Zoom Out) made with two fingers directly on the Wacom tablet (in my case an Intuos Pro L) or made using the Wacom Touch Ring tablet still does not work in InDesign, for a long time, with different versions of InDesign and with different operating systems (OS Mavericks - Sierra-High Sierra and now also Mojave ...).
All this is very frustrating, because it eliminates a very important function for those who have to paginate!
On all other programs (Illustrator, Photoshop and competition programs - Affinity Designer and Affinity Publisher Beta) it works regularly: I…2 votes -
tabulator
When I have a text on a path and I want to set a tabulator it is not possible to insert the number for the position correctly. There is only one cypher you can insert, die second one will not work. On top, there is the behaviour, sometimes when you insert the number, it will insert the text into the text on the path.
Fakt is, ist is not possible to work with that.

panels / windows won't open, InDesign doesn't launch 80% of the time
Honestly wasn't sure what to file this under. I am running the latest version of InDesign (version 14.0.2). About 4/5 times when I click to launch InDesign, it bounces for several minutes and then nothing happens... and then it stops bouncing and the dot under the app also goes away, yet the app says its open - still no windows. Eventually - usually after about 10-15 minutes of waiting - I have to right click, quit, and start again.
But this is the part that really bothers me: When it finally does open properly and loads a document, many of…

'Remember last export format' still not working
I posted a bug report on this a while back but I can't find it now.
This feature still isn't functioning for us.
InDesign only remembers the format of the last file exported.
So I just exported an InDesign file as a JPEG, and then when I returned to a file I worked on an hour ago, that I last exported as a PDF, the 'remembered' last export format is JPEG.
So NOTHING is being remembered across individual files at all.
This would be a great feature if we could get it working, but it simply doesn't work. Deleting preferences…

Links panel
When you highlight a link in the document, it used to highlight the corresponding image in the links panel, so you could easily edit or replace, instead of having to scroll through the links panel trying to identify the asset from the thumbnail. A minor workflow thing but it makes a difference. Would love to have this feature back in.

Adding htmlItem then closing document crashes inDesign on Mac
We are developping a plugin for inDesign and while testing a new feature on a Mac we noticed that sometimes InDesign was crashing. We managed to reproduce this bug in a very simple indesign script that make inDesign crash 100% of the time and I'm looking for a way to get around this inDesign bug.
The crash occurs when we programatically add an htmlItem to a pageItem then close the document too quicky, It's only on Mac, doing that on windows works perfectly. The crash error seems to be a memory usage problem on inDesign's side.
Here is the script…

Applying a negative vertical scale actually increases item's height (and display wrong value)
Just noticed that while you try to apply a negative vertical scale, item is actually enlarged in height. Also the vertical scale shows wrong value (says -100 instead of -125%)
In my case, tried to apply -125% vertical scale1 vote -

workspace's features (such as scroll down button and scroll sides, as well as page jump using pages tab) now showing
I'm using InCopy on Mac, and the bottom features are hidden.
I'm also using InCopy on my PC and it works fine. All the bottom are shown correctly.
Before 2019, it only happened when I opened Assignments panel, which hid last couple assignments from the pane and I couldn't scroll down any further to reveal it.
But now, it's happening on the bottom pane universally(?).
Does anyone else having similar issues?1 vote
