  1. Cloud Service - not finding files

    New ID release is buggy as all getout. More things than I have time to catalog. However, #1 most critical... I've upload jpg files to the cloud server from Photoshop. I can see the file using my browser. Trying to find the image file and place it in an ID document it is nowhere to be found. Tried this dozens of times, same result. Other times try to fetch an ID document form the server and I just get he spinning wheel of death. Creating a new ID document and push it to the server and get the spinning wheel…

  2. unable to share indesign file via InCopy beta for editing.

    Unable to share an indesign file via InCopy beta for editing. User has created a free adobe account. This feature was recently demonstrated at the Creative Pro InDesign online conference and touted as being available for non-paid adobe account holders (you just need to create a free account to use) but this does not appear to be true at all. User created a free account but cannot access the InCopy document without doing a trial (resulting in paying for InCopy).

  3. Share for text editing (beta) doesn't work on Microsoft Edge

    When using Adobe InDesign and clicking the link to open InCopy on the Web beta, the link opens in Microsoft Edge. Instead of loading the document, an “Incompatible Browser” message appears. I was testing it on my end, so my editor can start making text edits.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    Open Adobe InDesign.
    Click Share for text editing.
    Copy the link in your browser
    Copy the link into Microsoft Edge.
    Receive this message when trying to review the document the “Incompatible Browser” message instead of the document loading.

  4. [ID-4267886]InDesign cloud document doesn't display Tmeline icon when opened from the Save in Web menu

    How to reproduce:

    -In Creative Cloud desktop app, locate an InDesign cloud document

    -Choose the Open in Web menu

    In the resulting page of the file, the Timeline icon doesn't appear (see attached images).

    The user will need to go to the file list (by clicking Files, for example), click the file, and then the Timeline icon will appear as expected (see attached images).

  6. Text to Image (Beta) pop-up comes up CONSTANTLY

    This won't go away. He keeps popping up and then dominates the mouse/command prompts. The 'got it" button is hidden below the my icon dock and it disappears before I can hit it and if I do hit it, it keeps popping up anyways.

  8. Properties panel change - using tab for editing page size

    Currently, in the Properties Panel, if you change the Width of a document and press Tab it heads to the page count (Pages) input box. It would be very helpful if it tabbed into the height box directly after typing into the Width box.

    I'm consistently adding a large number of pages to the document instead of editing the Height directly after the Width when using Tab - which is not logical.

  11. Indesign (Beta) only opens a copy and not the exact inddc, thus resulting to multiple inddc files instead of updating the original file.

  12. integrate adobe express templates in software.

    Adobe Express is an amazing online platform with tons of inspiration and templates. Being able to use existing templates as a prompt designer in inDesign (and other Adobe Software) would be a game changer to speed up production time during slumps.

  14. Online Copy Editing for Cloud based InDesign file

    The feature to export for InCopy isn't available in InDesign Beta. Will InCopy be available via cloud based InDesign files in future, or could there a new online copy editor? A more simple and paired back version of InCopy online just to adjust text within Cloud based InDesign file?

  15. one click font size changer in whole file.

    During translation, the text expands too much, and we have to reduce the font size to fit the text. But if it is a booklet we have to keep consistency throughout the file. Therefore if I reduce the font size in the heading will need to check and reduce the font size in the body text as well. It is time-consuming if the document is not set properly with styles.

    Let's say I need to reduce font size by 1pt throughout the document. and I have multiple variations in sizes like the Heading 20pt, subheading 18, body size 12 pt…

  19. A simple visual Notificacion of the depending preformatted Styles

    As I highlight a character or Paragraph style, I would like to see a bullet on the left side of each style who is based on the currently highlighted style in the Style box.
    So I would not forget to verify some consecuences of the dependent changes on each of the dependent styles.

  20. Ability to create shortcuts with double or triple letter: For ex CTRL-f f f

    It would be great to memorize shortcuts wo referrs to similar function:

    Here a simple example, just to understand:
    Ctrl -S =save, Ctrl-S-S (double click on S) =Save as, and Ctrl-S-S-S = Save for web
    or:
    Ctrl -S =save, Ctrl-S-A (Rapid click S, thanA) =Save as, and Ctrl-S-W = Save for web
