"Share for review" somehow linked to old file
Had an older file that was Shared for Review and used it as a template. Saved the file under a different name, another user made some changes to the file, and this other user then Shared for Review. But the Share for Review under the new file says "You cannot access comments because another user has an active review for this document". But if i open the review under the newer file it takes me to the old file. Neither of us can see the comments under REVIEW in InDesign. We can see the comments if we go to the…

Workfront Integration
I'm having an impossible time exporting PDFs from InDesign and uploading directly to Workfront using the Adobe Workfront Plug-in. No matter what settings I use, when I export directly to WF, the PDF is corrupt (images/text drops out, text frames duplicate on top of each other, etc.)...but when I export a PDF to a local folder, then upload that existing PDF using the WF Plug-in, the PDF is fine. See the examples below - the item on the left is the PDF output directly to WF, and the item on the right is output using the exact same settings, output…

Bug: Cross-reference dialog, filter doesn't work
Latest ID 16.4, Windows 10
This bug is old, at least since the cross-ref dialog has been redesigned.
If you select a style on the left it would show you all text parts with that style on the right (see attached images).
Problem Nr. 1: that list on the right side is not alphabetically sorted and there is no way to get it sorted.
Problem Nr. 2: if you want to find a specific entry amongst the many you see you can either scroll through all of them or use the filter box, which doesn't work as expected. As you…1 vote -
Image mislocation (Myanmar, Khmer, Lao, Thai)
Image mislocation (Myanmar, Khmer, Lao, Thai)
In Myanmar (Burmese) Unicode, there is an error where the image overlaps the text.
In the example, the red box should not overlap the text.
For reference, Khmer, Lao, and Thai have the same problem.
Please check.- Version : InDesign CC 2021 16.4 (Korean)

Previous version’s book files not saving
Using InDesign 2022 Prerelease (17.0.0.96).
When I opened my Book file, created with the current released version (16.4.0.54), in this new version, it wouldn't let me hit ⌘S to save.
It keeps prompting me to save the file anew, as though it had just converted it fresh or created the Book.
The world is not going to stop revolving around its axis over this one, but it was disconcerting and annoying.

Memory issues
I began putting the current prerelease build (release candidate for InDesign 2022) through its paces on Monday. For the first time in the almost full year since I have been using this M1 MacBook Pro, the fan came roaring on, and all memory was depleted. When I started force quitting applications and consulted Activity Monitor, InDesign showed stratospheric memory use.
This doesn't happen all the time, but it seemed to degrade performance over time.

broken links from placed .docx file
When I place a .docx file into InDesign, any link that contains an anchor tag (like this-- .pdf#page=543) is removed. This happens even when I check to "Preserve Styles and Formatting..." from the import options popup.
Not only that, the linked text still shows hyperlink formatting, but when I highlight it to recreate the link, the "create new hyperlink" button in the hyperlink panel remains grayed out (removing the hyperlink style has no effect on this--I have to delete and then retype the text before it can be linked).
The only way I've found to get the links to import…

Share for review automatically loads when opening a file
I have am using version 16.4. Every time that I open a file, a Share for Review pops up on the screen. I have NEVER shared an InDesign document for review with this feature. Even if I click it away, as soon as I open another document (2 files now open), the Share for Review pops up again. How do I stop this from loading every single time? I just want to get to my documents without any slow down, and am frustrated that I can't find anything in any of the menus to turn this off.

Review Link Lost
I found a bug with the latest Indesign v.16.4.
STEPS:
Review link from my indesign file created.
Editors made comments on the review file.
Two months later - opening the source Indesign file the review link was lost. The file did not retain a review link was already generated and asked to establish another one.
NOTE: No adjustments where made to the file and no comments where ported over to the original source file. It simply forgot the link association.

Dragging the mouse to select text randomly moves the entire sheet
When dragging the mouse to select text in a text box it would sometimes move the entire page and pasteboard to the left or right when reaching the text box frame. This is a very old, extremely annoying behavior. It exists at least since CS4.
The biggest question: why does it move at all?1 vote -
Workspace reverts to Essential every time a document opens
Hi there, I'm having an issue where every document that I open reverts the workspace to Essential. Is there a way to set this to my desired setting and make it stick. I've scoured the forums and tried everything mentioned from clearing caches and preferences to uninstalling and reinstalling. I've set the workspace with no documents open and closed and reopened the app but it just reverts back to Essential when I open a new/existing document.
Please help! This is driving me crazy as I have to do it every time I open a document.

Layer visibility toggle should indicate mixed visibility status of sub layers
InDesign V 16.4, Current Creative Cloud as of 2021-11-14.
Currently - The top Layer visibility icon (within the layers palette) does not indicate a mixed visibility status of sub layers.
I have a rather complex layer set in a document I'm working on where I have master pages with master pages based on other master pages and linked objects within the document.
I just spent over an hour trying to locate a hidden object. I incorrectly assumed that, when looking at the layers palette, with all the layer stacks closed (layer list contracted where only the top level was shown)…2 votes -
Broken layout in review panel
Using InDesign 16.4 - Windows 10 21H1 19043.1237
The layout of the review panel is broken, apparently since the 16.4 update.
Clicking on a note sends all the content on the edge of the panel, hiding most of it (as shown on the attached image).
Changing the size of the panel (even slightly) puts everything back in place, but clicking again on a note breaks everything again. And so on.

alternate layouts
I want to prevent Indesign from adding alternate layouts to my file. I sometimes have to move pages from one document to another. I am using the page panel-move pages and then telling it the document I want the pages moved to. It adds an alternate layout. Is there a way to prevent this from automatically happening? It should be a feature that I turn on IF I WANT it. not one that I can't turn off.

Large Black Cursor only while working in inDesign?
The cursor is still not my default cursor, it is large and black and very annoying. I was wondering if anyone from Adobe has addressed this issue. I have looked at previous post and have not noticed anything that would change the cursor but only change the scaling of the entire program.
