2. Putting an InDesign extension into Panel mode from Modeless fails to display the extension

   Changing the <UI><Type> field in the manifest.xml from Modeless to Panel for an extension which has already been run as a Modeless type causes InDesign to crash, or fail to display the panel. This change was possible in previous versions of the application, and works correctly in Illustrator.
   Steps:
   1) Start with the UI Showcase sample from the Adobe CEP resources GitHub. https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/tree/master/UI_Showcase
   2) Install it
   3) Start the InDesign application
   4) Open the Modeless version of the UI Panel from the Extensions menu
   Result: this shows correctly
   5) Close the panel, shut down InDesign
   6) Change the UI/Type for the Modeless type to Panel in the manifest.xml
   7) Start InDesign
   8) Select the Modeless version of the UI Showcase from the extensions menu
   Result: Nothing happens, or InDesign crashes
   Expected: Should show the UI Showcase in a panel

3. Indesign 13.1 x64 (PC), Cell styles, Ignore option not working

   I can't get the "Ignore" option to work when setting up cell styles, I've had it working on previous versions, but now it won't stay (it needs to show in the rule type and colour setting selector panel but when I select "Ignore" nothing shows in the panel - it needs to display the "Ignore" setting). An example of when you might use it is if you've set up a table with various cell styles, eg header row, thin underlines, thick underlines and a table end rule and then want to apply a tint panel to all, or some of one or more columns without changing any of the rules applied using other cell styles (Annual Reports are documents where you would like this to work)
   It's a very handy feature that doesn't seem to work any more.
   Thanks,
   Peter

4. adobe stock pricing

   When licensing an Adobe Stock library image from within Indesign I am charged $9.99 but if I but the image on the adobestock.com site it is $2.99. This is recent and is highly annoying.

5. applying colour to grayscale images against coloured background previews incorrectly

   When I place a grayscale jpg in a frame with a background colour of C100/Y85/M0/K38 and apply a colour of C0 / M84 / Y100 K13, it displays correctly, red image against blue background. When I export that to PDF, the PDF preview shows no red, and a black box with the grayscale image knocked out in blue. When I open that in Acrobat Pro, it again displays correctly.

9. will not find/change text in locked boxes. why is there an option to find/changed locked text if it does not work?

   My idea is if you have a feature in the find/change panel that ostensibly allows you to find and change text in locked layers or boxes....that it should work to change the text! Trying to change locked section heds, but the feature won't find and change them unless they are unlocked. Which. IS. Not. Helpful.

11. IDML Table style EndColumnStrokeType attribute missing

    When an Alternating Column Pattern is created in a Table style any value for Type does not get exported to IDML.

    I would expect to find the EndColumnStrokeType attribute, but it is never created. The equivalent StartColumnStrokeType, StartRowStrokeType and EndRowStrokeType attributes do exist.

    The missing attribute is not documented in the IDML specification PDF.

    Using version: 13.1 x64

13. Doesn't let me save in RGB

    InDesign CC2018

    I'm trying to save a PDF in RGB, but when you are in the output section to change from CMYK to RGB, it doesn't let me, it automatically changes to CMYK.

    Even if I start the file in Web version since the beginning.

    I tried with new files and it still doesn't let me.

14. ne

    Using current version of InDesign (2018). Everything up-to-date.

    Headers disappear on 2nd page of copied tables. Similar to problem seen

    This happens every time a copied table goes to 2 or more pages.

    Tried resizing frame but nothing changed. Attempted to install 2017 fix file but will not load.

    Any ideas/help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

15. Graphic Frame Text Wrap in Find/Change Object

    I'm running InDesign 12.0.0.1 (2017) on mac OS 10.12.6 (Sierra). I was originally trying to write a script to automate changing text wrapping on all graphic frames in the active document to wrap to the largest area (TextWrapSideOptions.LARGEST_AREA). When I couldn't get a script that should have worked to function properly, I decided to try automating Find/Change Object queries. That's when I discovered that the manual queries weren't function. Allow me to elaborate:

    Here's what I want to do:
    Change the "Wrap Options > Wrap To" setting (TextWrapSideOption) for all graphic frames to "Largest Area" (TextWrapSideOptions.LARGESTAREA). This should really only have to apply to those graphic frames set to "Wrap around bounding box" (TextWrapModes.BOUNDINGBOXTEXTWRAP) and "Wrap to contour" (TextWrapModes.CONTOUR).

    Here's the problem:
    It only works if the graphic frame is set to "Wrap to contour." If the graphic frame is set to "Wrap to bounding box," then it either reports "Cannot find match," or it purports to have found the objects and have changed them, but does not actually change their text wrap modes. I've tried specifying the "Wrap to..." setting in the Find/Change query and many other setting (which are all unnecessary, if the graphic frame is set to "Wrap to contour"), and nothing works.

    I've scoured the internet, and even my not-inconsiderable Google fu has turned up nothing on this problem. I have, however, reproduced it on several machines in my office. For your reference, I've included a set of screenshots from various simple queries and their results. With the help of an expert, here's the script I developed that should have done the trick:

    var doc = app.documents[0];
    
    var allGraphics = doc.allGraphics;
    
    var allGraphicsLength = allGraphics.length;

    for ( n=0; n<allGraphicsLength; n++)
    
    {
    
    allGraphics[n].textWrapPreferences.properties =
    
    {
    
    textWrapSide : TextWrapSideOptions.LARGEST_AREA ,
    applyToMasterPageOnly : false
    
    };
    
    };

16. Help with Swatches

    InDesign CC 2018
    Trying to create a new swatch with "none" selected, but when I roll over "new swatch" button I get this symbol 🚫. On another forum, the correct answer was to select a user defined swatch; however, I am new to InDesign and working on my first project, so I don't have any user defined swatches.

    Please help. TIA

17. swatch alias

    When exporting a PDF and ik want to alias extra Spot-swatches to a FC-colour-Swatch.
    But these Swatch stetting should not be in the saved indesign file.
    I want to be able to only merge the swatch-alias in de PDF export (setting).

    When I those it during the PDF-export.
    It should only apply on de PDF export.
    Not in the design file Swatch setting.
    Otherwise I should have edited it Swatch-setting of my design.

18. SuperMegaBlack

    You have added a new color swatch called "SuperMegaBlack." WHY?!?!? It has precisely the same CMYK values as simple "Black." Very misleading, and a very stupid idea.

19. inDesign Form Fields are Hidden in Acrobat after Export

    I created two form fields in inDesign using the Buttons and Forms panel. When I export my pdf (interactive), I cannot see the form fields. Interestingly enough, when I click "Prepare Form" in Acrobat, the form fields appear, and without doing anything, I can save the pdf and the form fields will continue to work as expected. Obviously this is much more time-consuming than if the fields were just visible by default.

    My document is very simple: 1 page, a couple lines, minimal text, some hyperlinks (which all function correctly), and the two form fields.

    I believe it has something to do with the stack order of all the layers. I think they are getting mixed up during the export process. I have tried setting tab order with no success. I have also created a new layer just for the form fields in inDesign and made sure it was the top-most layer before exporting. That didn't work either.

    I recently started working on a new computer so its possible I need to toggle a setting or two that I may be unfamiliar with, I suppose?

    Any help is appreciated, thanks!

    Need More Info  ·  AdminRavi Kiran (Admin, Adobe InDesign) responded

    The way you have described the issue you are facing is pretty simple and straight-forward. You don’t need to toggle any specific setting to specify Form Fields in InDesign or view them in Acrobat. The Form Fields are visible with a light-bluish background in Acrobat. Wonder what could be causing the issue to happen for you.
    Even though there doesn’t appear to be anything special in the document you are creating, could you share the same so that it can be looked at for troubleshooting?
