If Paragraph Format uses Shade, only the first line is underlined (instead of all) (Layer Problem!)
Its not a suggestion, its a bug.
Under Indesign 13.1, when e.g. a whole page is styled to have a gray shade behind it, and some paragraphs have to be undelined, then ALWAYS the Line before a hard return does not show the underline, because I suppose a layer problem occurs. Indesign seems to see the text on top, then applies the shade and under that the underlining for the text, which won't be shown then. The descenders are shown normally, since they are on top in the text layer. I have not found a way to tell the underline…5 votesHi,

Applying a paragraph style causes text to appear duplicated on screen, but it's not really.
CC 2018, OS High Sierra, both most current, brand new install on a brand new iMac Pro.
If I apply a style using a key command, 90% of the time the text from the cursor down goes crazy, looks duplicated. But if I hit the key command again, or click off the paragraph, or scroll, it goes away and is normal. So it's not really duplicating anything as far as I can tell. I screen captured exactly what it looks like.

Rounded corners aren't perfectly rounded
Why aren't rounded corners perfectly rounded? I created a 100x100px square, rounded the corners to 50px which should give me a perfect circle except it doesn't.

Indesign unable to open few Indesign files
InDesign is not able to open Indesign files. Says its may not support file format.
We have reinstalled Adobe Indesign and it doesn't help.
InDesign files can be viewed as pdf and opened in Adobe illustrator but can't open the original files.
How do we work around this.4 votes -
Indents not holding after page break
- InDesign CC 2018, though I logged this bug for 2017 as well. It may also have existed as far back as CS6. I had hoped it would be fixed in this release.
- Create a paragraph style that has a left indent and set text in that paragraph style. Set enough text to flow onto a second page.
- The text should retain the left indent after the page break.
- Sometimes, the first line of text after the page break does not retain the indent.
22 votesHello All,

Basic Functionality breaking on each update
i am really annoyed that Indesign keeps breaking basic functionality when it makes an update. I have used paste without formatting for years without incidence and now it doesn't always work when I need it.
Typing in new frames requires 2 clicks and requires a tweak to the settings to work right?!
I don't want any new functionality if it is going to break things like typing and pasting, many things that used to be one click are now many. That is not how this should work!!!

Recent Files thumbails don't match corresponding documents
When choosing an ID document to open from the "recent files" screen, the wrong file opens; i.e., the document that opens does not match the document that I clicked on. Or, sometimes I get an error claiming that the document cannot be found, but the file is indeed right where I left it. This does not happen every time...sometimes the right document does open from the recent files screen, but not usually. This has only been happening to me only for the past week or two. I have not moved my files, changed folder names, replaced hard drives, or any…

InDesign crashing when exporting book to pdf
Hi there. I just got updated InDesign through CC and am in the process of updating old files/documents created in CS5.5. Several of them are InDesign books including 6-10 separate documents (there are a couple books which share similar documents). I'm able to export the individual documents as a pdf just fine, but when I try to export the book it crashes. I've tried recreating the book with the same documents, but no luck. Other ideas?

[ID-4261148] Character style "Include Html Class" check box removes the whole tag
The "Include Classes in HTML" checkbox doesn't work for Character Styles. Whereas paragraph styles and object style export without the class, character styles actually export without the tag at all—losing any formatting for that style. This is the case both in HTML and EPUB export.

InDesign performance issue: Slow interface
The new document window is painfully slow. The pallets such as the background task pallet take some visible time to initialise themselves. As a whole the UI is always lagging.
I'm on a new iMac Pro and this is completely unacceptable. It feels as though the interface is getting in the way instead of making work easier.

When setting the frame grid with the shortcut key, it becomes an unintended font display
InDesign Ver.13.0.1 x64(CC 2018) Japanese Edition
Windows- make new document
- make new frame grid
- select frame grid
- press key "Ctrl+B", and open dialog
A font that starts with "B" installed in the system is displayed in the font setting of the dialog.
Should be displayed is the default "Kozuka Mincho Pr6 N".CC 2017 and older versions are no problem.

running headers does not show numbers
Running headers does not show the auto numbering for a paragraph style. This would be so much better to have this rather than using a third party plug-in. The best of which is no longer supported for CC.

arabic
Cursor Direction when typing Arabic or other RTL languages. in Middle Eastern version ONLY.
All Middle Eastern versions (English يدعم العربية)
Type Arabic text. Place the cursor within text. Hold "Shift" key and click on right arrow key on the keyboard to select/highlight text. Cursor moves left and select next character on the left while clicking on right arrow.
To select a character to the left of the cursor, we should hold (Shift+left arrow) To select a character to the right of the cursor, we should hold (Shift+right arrow)
What actually is happening now and for over 20 years when…

I don't have the Webroot software described in the fix so it must be something else!
