1. Data merge panel blank

   Data Merge WAS failing to display data field placeholders in either existing documents or new ones. I'm getting a completely Data Merge blank panel when importing a new source file, and when opening an existing document with a linked file, I was only seeing a preview of one of the records.
   This persisted through a number of workspace configurations (most including a second monitor) until I broke the Data Merge panel off from the others, and cycled through the panel size presets (the up/down chevrons to the left of the panel title) - only once returned to 'standard' size did the Data Merge panel again display the merge tags, and allow the preview button to be clicked etc

2. Copy & paste within a numbered list can cause wrong numbering

   If you create a numbered list which runs over 2 or more columns and copy some text within the list from one paragraph to another the numbering changes. In my example you have 2 times 1 in the list.

   To make it even more crazy this only happens when you use the Adobe Single-line composer. If you work with the Adobe ParagraphComposer there's no problem at all.

   If you change the text frame from 2 columns to 1 column and back the error disappears as well.

3. PlaceGun does not have reference to idms textframe

   Hi,

   I'm trying to place a textframe from an idms file into an indesign document. The actual loadPlaceGun() operation seems to work fine as I'm able to paste the textframe on the page. However, I also want to have a reference to that textframe. I was trying to accomplish this by using

   placeGun.pageItems.everyItem().getElements(), but it doesn't return any elements. I find this odd because I'm using the same method when inserting images and it works fine, so I'm not sure what the issue is. Link with pictures here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/placegun-does-not-have-reference-to-idms-textframe/m-p/14530065#M568624

5. Right-to-left paragraph orientation causes problems

   Hello and thanks in advance to the respondents.
   For several months now I have been suffering from a very annoying problem in InDesign and I have not been able to find a solution.
   When I set the writing direction from right to left (using the edit menu - right to left), the arrow keys on the right and left keyboard stop responding as they should, and instead of each click the cursor moves one character to the right or left, clicking on them jumps the cursor to the beginning or end of the line.
   The problem only exists when I select the "Visual" option in the above menu.
   Of course, in my Adobe Creative settings, English is set to support Hebrew, and I also noticed that I am opening a text window of the Middle East type, and in the paragraph settings itself, the direction is set from right to left.
   Thank you very much for any help!

6. Share for Review: there was an error updating the artifact. NOT updating!

   Adobe InDesign CC 2024

   I am working a magazine. The size is pretty large, lots of pictures. I was able to create the Share for Review link, and share it. But I am unable to update. Although, I copy the link, open the address in Google Chrome and my edits show. When I mark a pin resolved, it does not show in my indesign file.

7. Page Label Not Inherited from Parent to Document Page

   I'm assigning a page label to a parent page using by script like

   myParentPage=app.activeDocument.masterSpreads.itemByName("PRD-Products").pages[0];
   myParentPage.insertLabel("page", "products");

   When I insert a new document page based on this parent page, the page label is NOT inherited but just empty.

10. Disable the download video link in Publish Online

    When viewing video on Publish Online, there's an option to download the video. It would be nice to be able to turn that off when uploading in the same way that the sharing can be turned off.

    Thanks in advance.

12. Export - Jpg - Page Size - Suffix

    Love the new update where you can change the export options to include a specific Suffix, however could you remove the spaces between the sizes in the Page Size Suffix export? For example, 700 x 200 would be 700x200. This will help speed up the process in file naming as we can not have spaces in files names in any graphics for our websites.

14. Incorrect diacritic position for some letters when using bullets

    When using the latest version of Noto Sans Arabic (2.012), if bullets/numbering is enabled in InDesign for a line containing a word with a medial position jeem ج, the dot of the jeem gets out of place. If bullets/numbering are not used, then all is well. I submitted this as a bug on GitHub for the Noto Sans team, but they say it is an issue with InDesign and the layout engine. You can also see other issues on the GitHub issue at https://github.com/notofonts/arabic/issues/232.

    To reproduce:

    1. Create a text frame using the "ME Type Tool" in InDesign (for a right-to-left text frame).

    2. Paste وين نتجمع؟ in the text frame. Notice the dot of the letter jeem is proper, showing below the main part of the letter.

    3. Place the caret inside the text frame at the beginning of the phrase.

    4. In the "Bullets and Numbering" property section, click the "Numbered List" button to change the line of text to a numbered list.

    5. Notice that the dot for the jeem is no longer below the main part of the letter, but rather is now close to the baseline and barely visible.

15. Master page Items on left page missing when overriden on right page's master page when both master pages are based on the same parent

    OK, this bug is INCREDIBLY specific, but unfortunately is completely breaking my project. Example PDF below and INDD file in Google Drive folder here:
    https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1teEtxzm5lT5PnwsZ6BKToDpSXgAx4D9d?usp=sharing

    I'm trying to make a multilingual instructions manual (A4, facing pages, 3mm bleed on all sides) with tabs on the page edges for each language. I have one master page "A-Gabarit" which has all the general layout elements and all the language tabs grayed out, and for each language, I have a master page based on A where I override the one tab for that language to color it black (so the EN master page is based on A and has the EN tab overridden, the FR master page is also based on A and has the FR tab overridden and so on)

    What's happening is that depending on how the spread's pages have their master page assigned, some objects dissapear when they shouldn't:
    - If both the left and right pages have A master, everything displays fine
    - If the left page has A master, and the right has EN master, then anything from A that was overridden in the EN master dissappears from the left page, the rest remains.
    - If the left page has EN master, and the right has A master, then everything works fine.
    - If both pages start with A master, and any other master page is applied to the right page, objects overridden in the right page's template will dissappear from the left, even though they were there right before. They reappear if the right page's template is switched back to A again.
    - Finally, and worst part: if the left page has EN master, and the right page has FR master, objects from common parent A master that were not overridden in EN, but were overridden in FR, will dissappear from the left page, so it doesn't actually matter that the left page has the parent master page or another child master based on the same parent, just that it shares elements from the same parent master page as the right page

    The issue only ever appears on the left page

    PDF output is affected, it's not just a display issue.

    My workaround, so far, is to duplicate the colored tabs in each child variant on top of the existing one instead of trying to override them, so that the original is preserved and doesn't dissappear on the left page, or alternately, rebuild all master pages with no "based on X" relation and no overrides, defeating the purpose of having master pages based on other master pages (ouch)

    I'm guessing that when applying master pages on the right page, InDesign is handling overrides on a spread-level instead of a page level, which is problematic when both pages of a spread are using different master pages based on the same parent master page (this has never been an issue for me up until now). Expected behaviour would be for each page to show their own master page content in any context without interference from the facing page.

    OK, this bug is INCREDIBLY specific, but unfortunately is completely breaking my project. Example PDF below and INDD file in Google Drive folder here:
    https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1teEtxzm5lT5PnwsZ6BKToDpSXgAx4D9d?usp=sharing

16. [ID-4245422]Underlines are drawn in the space left by "danraku jisage".

    When I use "danraku jisage " in the "mojigumi akiryou settei" , an underline is underlined in the empty space at the beginning of a line.
    Since there are no characters in the empty space, it is correct that underlines are not underlined in the same way as when indentation is used to lower the line.

    「文字組みアキ量設定」で「段落字下げ」を行ったとき、行頭の空いている部分にも下線が引かれてしまう。
    空いている部分には文字はないので、インデントで下げたときと同じように、下線は引かれないのが正しい。

18. Dialogue windows open at full screen, and will not scale down or move

    When I open, place, export or save a document, the dialogue window automatically goes to full screen and is not scalable or movable, even though I can select the border or the corner with the cursor (and see the cursor change to confirm I have the window border), it will not resize or move.

19. Links panel content overflow

    Since upgrading to InDesign 2024, we've encountered a persistent issue where the Links Panel becomes overwhelmed with linked assets. This overflow makes the panel difficult, if not impossible, to use effectively.

    Problem Description:
    The issue manifests when working with documents that contain a large number of unique linked assets. Upon selecting an asset (e.g., an image) within a page, the Links Panel attempts to highlight the corresponding link. However, instead of functioning as expected, the panel becomes cluttered and overflows with the document's other links, severely hindering our ability to work efficiently.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    Ensure your document contains a significant amount of unique linked assets.
    Open the document and select any asset on the page.
    Observe the behaviour of the Links Panel as it tries (and fails) to highlight the selected link amidst a chaotic overflow of other links.
    Troubleshooting Attempts:

    Reinstalled InDesign 2024.
    Reset InDesign’s preferences to default.
    Switched from a custom workspace back to the default workspace.
    Despite these efforts, the problem persists. Attached is a screenshot illustrating the issue we're experiencing.
