Visual ghosting on stage
Hello,
I have had some issues (possibly since the last update) with visual "ghosting" artifacts. Use to be, it would have been an issue with the refresh rate of a monitor, or not having the latest Nvidia graphics card update, but neither of these appears to be the issue.
I'm open to some recs to fix this issue. Please see the image for a clearer explanation of the problem.
And yes, when I move the stage/the issue, visibility does go back to normal.

Links palette issue
Hi there;
I'm encountering a bug with the "Links" palette. Specifically, for a long list of links, the "Link info" panel doesn't preview properly, but rather overlaps the main list of links. Similarly, if a link alphabetically appears towards the bottom of the list, it isn't possible to select it from the Links palette.
Hoping this can be fixed with the next INDD update?!

Khmer Line-Breaking Regression Bug
While much has been fixed, the current version of InDesign 2022 still line-breaks Khmer words/punctuation incorrectly (this used to work in InDesign 5.5 but has been broken since CS 6).
Here are some sample words/puncuation that break incorrectly (many are names):
យេស៊ូវ
អ៊ីស្រាអែល
គ្រីស្ទ
«...ទោះ
ជាម្ចាស់
អាន់ទីយ៉ូក
ៗ (this should stay with the previous word not break on to its own line)
អាកំណា
គ្រីស្ទបរិស័ទ
បន្សុស
ខគម្ពីរ
បូគោ
... (should stay together and stay with previous word like in English)
បូគោ

eyedropper tool not sampling correct color or images color.
Eye dropper tool has not been working in InDesign properly for weeks FIX YOUR ****. I cant take colors from images. IDK what it is doing specifically but it only seems like it is sampling text properties and solids not images. Its working perfectly fine in photoshop and Illustrator just not InDesign. Should not be encountering such a simple bug on a paid service

Layout Adjustment Moves Anchored Frames
Layout adjustment moves anchored frames vertically even when the anchor is set relative to the text baseline and the text baseline doesn't move.
***Worse still, the shifted frames also DO NOT SHOW AS OVERRIDDEN even though their position no longer matches the settings in the object style applied to the frame.

Cursor continually freezes, Indesign auto shortens swatches pane
Glitch happens at random intervals, but so frequently that it's becoming maddening. Right now it's happening every 30 seconds to a minute, seriously F'ng my workflow today.
M1 MacBook Pro, occurs whether I'm using my Wacom tablet (often I blame this first). It seemed to have happened after the last updated, along with an accompanying issue where I have to continually reset my workspace if I disconnect/connect to an external monitor. If I don't reset my workspace, Indesign refuses to show any tool panels.
See attached video.

Welcome screen has a trypophobia trigger image
The image in the top row, 2nd from the right, can be a visual trigger for people with trypophobia like myself. It is a small thing but something that can be easily fixed so I figured I'd write!

Why does ID now need new filetype with every yearly release?
I don't remember ID needing a new filetype with every release in the past. A (perhaps cynical) part of me says new filetypes are designed to incentivize users to upgrade. This drive for new filetypes every year seems especially capricious when fundamental new ID features are few and far between over the past 5+ years. (Ex: one of the top billed features last year was renaming Master pages to Parent pages...)
New filetypes with every release is a source of friction to my team, especially when several users work on a project and one or more suddenly find they can…

.idlk files not recognized/ignored when .indd files are in a Dropbox directory
InDesign 2023 v18.00
.idlk files are not recognized when working from a shared Dropbox folder. This issue appears to be very extensive and well documented. While I understand the many different use cases (synced/not synced, not connected to the internet, etc..) It would just make sense for InDesign to check for .idlk files within Dropbox directories and let Dropbox/Users figure out the potenetial for syncing errors and find a solution when those issues arise.This causes very frustrating issues for collaborative teams.

trados idml version
Hello!
We export the idml file from indesign 2022. We must later open the file in Trados for its translation and it doesn't let us because it identifies it as a cs4 file. With indesign 2021 it also happens, but not with previous versions, with which Trados opens them correctly. Can you help us?1 vote -
Magnetic layout - Snap to guides not accurate
When placing an element (box) against a page grid - or guide line, the element is not placed exactly at the grid rulers. It's always slightly off. This problem occurs after an earlier update from InDesign. It doesn't matter if it's a new or an old document. We work with InDesign 18.1
We produce a lot of magazines and also a newspaper where grid and content measurements must be accurate.1 vote -
