Ctrl + Alt + X
To use the shortcut "Ctrl + Alt + X" to do a hard space in the text is impossible - it doesn't work at all. When I press "Ctrl + Alt + X" I start some sort of screenshot function. When I chose "Hard space" from the menu it works as it should do.
So please help, I miss my "Ctrl + Alt + X" -function.

3. I expect to get a hard space in the text.

Colour picker turns everything to blank with strokes, applies stroke
Colour picker is broken. Everything is checked, but when I use it, it turns the object picked from into blank with black stroke. When applied, it adds a black stroke. This is true of text, objects, and links. Deleting local settings changed nothing.

Hyperlinks
I use a lot of hyperlinks in a document which link to the individual products on our website for online ordering and stock levels.
The Hyperlink panel frequently corrupts - I lose the ‘traffic light’ link status indicator and location of the link (page No.) - meaning I have to remove InDesign and execute a clean install to get the feature back.

crash
After the opening of the 5° files Indesign Crashes, i have to open a massive number of files. I make a fast check on my PC and the system works with half of the resources available. So i think the problem is not my pc but the program. I have an HPZ240 Tower Workstation. RAM 16GB. Processor Inte(R) Core(TM) i7-7700K CPU @4.20GHz and the Hard disk it's an SSD 500gb. The operative sistems it's a Windows 10 pro. The version of the program InDesign build 12.1.0.56 release 2017.1.

Pagina on Master page - deleted on one page
Pagina is on Master page, and deleted on one page.
In version 12.0.0.81 the pagina that is deleted still shows.
In version 12.1.0.56 the pagina is not there.
I do not know which version the designer used when creating the document, some version of 2017.
The pagina block is from the edge to spine.2 votes -

missing scripts after installation ID CC13.0/ID2018 Windows
Startup scripts are no longer running after installation. The Scripts folder is empty.
Indesign copies the folder from version 12 and creates the folder C:\Users<user>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version 13.0\de_DE
But Indesign-scripts now are saved in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC 2018\Scripts
So you have to copy the script folders by yourself.1 voteHi,
Thanks for reporting this issue. Just wanted to confirm few things:
1) Was there some scripts present in folder C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version 12.0\de_DE and these are not copied to 13.0 folder?
2) Is your problem just limited to folder movement or you are facing the issue that your startup scripts are not running?Please provide more detail about the issue. Also, It would be useful if you can provide steps to reproduce the issue.

The lists of entries for a cross reference is not ordered
Some panels with items (e.g. links) can be ordered by clicking the column header. Others cannot. Among these are the lists of references to choose from when inserting a cross-reference. These seem to be totally unordered. As a result, it is a pain to look for the right one (e.g. choose from a few hundred in a large document). I consider this a bug because other panels do have this ordering

Mistakenly copying layer name instead of layer content
Nobody command-clicks the an Indesign layer hoping to copy the layer name, but much of the time when attempting to copy the layer content, the layer title is the only thing brought into the clipboard.

Filetype is the same as CC 2018
InDesign CC 2019 (14.0.0.130) for Mac
Filetype is the same as CC 2018. Each version has been given a unique Filetype. The only exception is v6.0.0–6.0.3 (CS4), but it was fixed as a bug in 6.0.4. I also expect it to be fixed as a bug of 14.0.0 as well.38 votesThis has been done to preclude any new entries for CFBundleTypeOSTypes. The previous release, CC2018 had CFBundleTypeOSType as IDdD but for the new release, we have not created the new OSType entry as IDdE rather kept the previos entry intact.
Apple had deprecated any entries of the form of CFBundleType from 10.5 and now recommends using a UTType(Uniform Type Identifier) entry instead of creating CFBundleType entries. We might choose creating UTTypes in the future. However, for now we have stopped creating separate CFBundleTypes for the new releases.
It would helpful to know from you as to how you use these entries in your workflows so that we can suggest you an alternative.You may reach out to abkaushi@adobe.com.

Can you please look at the separations plate and let us know the color values.
You just have to follow simple steps:
1. Launch your InDesign
2. Create an object say rectangle and fill your color
3. Go to Window→Output→Separations Preview
4. Select the drop down of View to Separations
5. Hover over your object. The separations will show you how much % of which color component comprises the color.Also, let me know the Platform and OS version that you are working on.
A short video showing the issue will be very helpful.
You can directly reach me out at sakverma@adobe.comThanks,

Indesign duplicates when I click and drag on anything, and it won't stop
Whenever I hold click and drag something Indesign creates a copy. It's almost like the Alt button is held down but it's not. I've removed the keyboard and it still does it. I've updated the software and it still happens. I've tried multiple restarts but no luck. I even uninstalled and ran an install but still no fix. Does anyone know why this is happening? It's not happening on any other Adobe software, just Indesign. I'm working on the latest version.

conflict of making your document smaller than your margins
InDesign CC 2019 v. 14
The New ”New document” dialog box doesn't give any warning of the conflict of making your document smaller than your margins allow. It just changes the width and/or height back to what it was as a default if your margins are too large and does not warn the user about it.
And if the user fails to notice that the size switches back, it will create a document that’s not the size intended. User may not even realize what is it that went wrong.
In the Legacy New Document dialog box, when you click OK,…
1 voteInDesign is trying to be helpful here by intelligently reverting to the last good value in the New Document dialog since it’s not possible to create a new document with the values entered by you.
We hope you find this useful.

no break is not working 100%
InDesign CC 14.0 no break is not working all the time. Trying to keep web address together and have no break applied but the text is still splitting even though it can fit a single line of the text box. If I change width of text box the spaces get compressed and almost looks like there is no space between words.
