Character control panel is cut off
The Character panel is currently cut off, so I can't change the font easily like I want to. I restarted InDesign as well as my computer but so far no luck.

Shift+Enter (Num-Pad) no longer opens a file with options
Up to InDesign 2022 one had the possibility to open/place a file with additional options by hitting Shift+Enter (NumPad), instead of checking the box "open with options". Shift+Click on Open still works.

addidtionl layer(s) are invisible in embedded INDD
The objects on layers except the main layer are invisible if you place the indd document in another indd document. If you move the object to the main layer and refresh the link they are visible again. PDF export is not effected by this.

Typesetting changes on paragraphs that are not touched
while working on texts - like doing corrections or micro typopraphy – InDesign changes the line breaks to other paragraphs that I am not working on.
On the same page, but when I work on details sometimes I zoom and do not see that things are changing. This often causes changes to several pages and I need to fix everything back!1 vote -

Graphics glitches galore on M1 MacBook Air + external 4K monitor
InDesign 17 on an M1 MacBook Air with Big Sur is barely usable with an external 4K monitor. There are graphic artifacts everywhere, especially near the margins/edge of boxes which makes it hard to know if anything is aligned properly. Everything looks okay on the laptop's built-in display but is distorted on the external.
Also, when scrolling, the screen updates sporadically and usually does the Windows 95-looking stuck window effect.
If I turn off the GPU it looks better when working statically but when scrolling it is even worse.

Object effects not scaling when using numeric adjustment
When I scale an object using the actual size of the object, say I have a rectangle 40x40mm with a stroke size of 4 point, and I increase the size to say 80x80mm the stroke still stays at 4 points. This also applies to effects that I have given the object, like a drop shadow. All the effects are not scaled if I scale the object numerically. No matter which panel I use and of course the transformation panel is marked to scale strokes and effects. The effects do scale if I scale it by percentage like they should.

Publish Online thicker navigation arrows - option to turn OFF
The hard coded previous/next page arrows are noticeably thicker and can spoil some designs and therefore the user experience. Can we have an option to turn them OFF.
Ajar In5 already has this. Seems like a simple enough option?

Publish Online documents have become very slow to load
Since the dashboard update, analytics 'since published' will NOT load.
We're also noticing publish online documents are very slow to load initially.
I'm presuming this is all server side issues at Adobe and would like to know if its being fixed.
Are you forcing browsers to cache online publications before loading?
These are both major issues that might force us to see alternative solutions if not fixed soon.

Quick Action 'edit with' not working with creative cloud files
Normally I can quickly edit the placed PSD-files in Photoshop with option-click. But with the PSDC-files this option no longer works. From the Quick Options menu there are no apps under the 'edit with' menu. If the files are on the computer, it works fine.
Will this option also be available for PSD files that are in the Creative Cloud?1 vote -

new documents open in full screen
I am using ID 18.1 on Mac OS 12.5.1. Every time I open a new InDesign document the document takes up the whole screen. I have unchecked application frame under windows menu. I have unchecked "show home screen" in preferences. It is extremely annoying to have to grab the lower right corner of the window to size it down every time I open or create a new document. Where is the setting/preference to fix this?

Script editor doesn't open when JSX menu is activated
The menu Edit Script (from JSX file, under script palette) doesn't open the file in the script editor. Instead, the CC App pops-up which is very annoying and time consuming (InDesign 17.4).

Navigation bug on InDesign 18
When I open a document with several pages (facing pages) and I use the option + up or down arrow shortcuts to scroll the pages, indesign skips 2 double pages instead of one. The bug is intermittent. Only on Indesign 18.0 and 18.1.
I came back to version 17.4.1 and no more problems.1 vote -
