1. Setting key object

   If I have a graphic frame with an image and a text frame selected, I can only set the text frame as the selection key object. If I click on the graphic frame, the selectiong changes to it (de-selecting the text frame).

2. align tool and moving groups

   Mac OS 26.5
   Indesign 21.4
   Something has gone wrong with the align to object tool. It has stopped working. If I select a group of objects, then try to select the 'align to' object, nothing happens. It's as if the feature isn't there.
   Also selecting multiple objects and dragging an image box de-selects them all. If I drag a text box, this seems to work.

3. [ID-4281542]Unable to move multiple objects when selecting image frames

   With the latest version of Indesign (21.4) I can't move multiple image frames any more unless I group them. This also applies when selecting an image frame and graphic elements such as rectangles or text frames, everything else deselects and stays put with the image moving. Except when I click and drag on the non image frame of the selection, then everything works as it should. Can you please fix this as it is highly annoying.

   Mac OS 26.5, Indesign 21.4

   Workaround:

   • Holding the Shift key while dragging allows the entire selection to move correctly.
   • Rolling back from InDesign 21.4 to InDesign 21.3 resolves the issue.

12. Export to Flat psd --- not flat

    Export As..., option 'Flat image' does not result in an actual flat image. the result is a layer in Photoshop, instead of a Background / flat image.
    Why is this important? Because in InDesign, only really flat grayscales can be given a color. Unfortunately, the result of the Ai export has to be flattened in Photoshop before it can be used to color it in InDesign.

13. Can't edit page elements when updated from 2024 to 2026 versions of inDesign

    My book that is roughly 200+ pages was created in 2023 and was editable in all versions until I got to 2026. My computer's processing power is not in question, but I can no longer edit elements that were created on previous versions. If I make new pics, text blocks, or anything, those are editable, but nothing else. If I try and revert the file, it warns me that I may LOSE my material if trying to go back.. This is unacceptable. In ever instance I don't want to open the file in the newest version and each time it is updated on my computer "Stealthily" and pushes through the conversion.

    Maybe I'm missing something, is there a setting I need to have ON or OFF in order to edit all aspects of a page?

    If it's not this, then you have a bug that needs to be addressed.

    pic below, you notice the edit border on the text to the left; if I click on the right page text options, nothing happens, it can't be manipulated, selected or changed in any way.

14. [ID-4281595] Share for Review Comment Emails Render Raw HTML Instead of Formatted Text

    Share for Review email notifications contain raw HTML code in the message body. Comment text is wrapped in visible <pre style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; white-space:pre-line;"> tags that render as code rather than formatted text, making the emails difficult to read. The HTML should be rendered, not displayed as raw markup.

15. Font family names containing "&" display incorrectly in font menu

    Adobe InDesign v21.3

    Steps to reproduce the issue

    1. Install two test fonts with the following family names:
       • “A & B - Test 1”
       • “A&B - Test 2”
    2. Launch InDesign.
    3. Open the Character panel.
    4. Type “A & B”
    5. Observe the displayed family names in the dropdown results.

    Expected result

    Both family names should display exactly as defined in the font name table:

    • “A & B”
    • “A&B”

    Actual result

    The family name containing spaces around the ampersand displays correctly:

    • “A & B”

    The family name with the ampersand between adjacent characters does not display correctly in the dropdown:

    • “AB”

    The ampersand is removed from the dropdown display only when positioned between non-space characters.

    Additional notes

    • The full family name displays correctly elsewhere in the UI after selection.
    • This appears to be specific to ampersands between adjacent characters, though it could potentially affect other special characters as well.
    • The OpenType name table values are spec-compliant. Please see name ID 6 in the OpenType name table specification.
    • Name IDs 1, 4, 6, and 16 all preserve the ampersand correctly.

    Attachments

    • Screenshot showing the font search results and incorrect dropdown rendering.
    • Two minimal test fonts demonstrating the issue.

    Dropbox link to test fonts: test_fonts.zip

    Adobe InDesign v21.3

    Steps to reproduce the issue

       • “A&B - Test 2”
    2. Launch InDesign.

17. Keep setting of PDF export when cancalling the export

    Please make InDesign remember file name and other settings when user interrupts process of exporting PDF.

    Typical scenario: you start exporting PDF, you select the right folder, file name. InDesign the displays warning, some files are missing. So I cancel the export, fix the links. Unfortunately the time I spend looking for right folder, setting the right file name is not respected, I have to start the whole process again. It is annoying if you have a complex structure of folders located on a server share.

18. Undo ocassionally not available

    Please fix undo. Version 21.3.0.60 on Mac, Undo functionality is disabled from time to time when working on larger and very complex document. No warning, just grayed out Undo in the menu. As far as I remember, it is not possible to quit the app without crash after this happens (twice or three times a month in my case). It is extremely frustrating and annoying bug.

    It is perhaps the same bug reported as “[ID-4274243] InDesign clearing Undo stack frequently” and falsely claimed as FIXED.

20. Drag/Drop Link Causes Loading (Spinny) Wheel - Must Force Quit InDesign and Restart on Windows

    Occasionally, mostly when placing photos of PDF's via drag/drop, and at other random times, InDesign will be stuck, and the mouse cursor will be stuck on the loading/spinning wheel. I will have to open the Task Manager, force quit InDesign, and re-open. When I re-open, it will typically load the document exactly where I left off. Sometimes it's saved my work and other times it had not.
