PDF
When I export a document as pdf then I miss some elements when I open the pdf in Illustrator. The missing elements are in my case some with color gradients. This should fixed in a next update. I use InDesign 2021 (16.3) and AI 2021 (25.4.1)

PNG import issue with InDesign 16.3.1
Hello!
I'm having an issue with InDesign CC (16.3.1): some PNG files are imported in a green frame instead of being transparent. For example, when I import (whether with the shortcut cmd + d or not) the PNG of an image (1), it appears with a green background, while this same image only with an additional layer (2) appears with a transparent background, as it should. However, it is the same export format with the added layer displayed or hidden.
I would like to point out that this bug only appears when importing into indesign, I don't have this problem…

InDesign crashes when deleting a page that contains a tagged and locked graphic frame.
Environment: InDesign 2020 or 2021 (16.3.2 or 15.1.3 Japanese version) + macOS 11.5.2
These are the steps:
1) Create a new document, create a graphic frame on the first page, and place an image on the frame.
2) Add a tag to the graphic frame. (For example, "root")
3) Lock the graphic frame.
4) Add one page.
5) InDesign crashes when you delete a page with a graphic frame.Here is a file that can be reproduced.

Premier Pro style file linking
I recently had the joy of relinking a project I was working on in Premier Pro. Right click, "Link Media...", the gui opens, I click "locate", hit "search" and hey presto! The experience is blissful.
Please do this everywhere! Especially in InPhosTrator.

arrow/scroll
BUG Report: InDesign 13.3 x 64:
I can't use my arrow to scroll up and down the Effects menu to see the various effects on my selected box. Instead, I have to click to reopen the list for each effect and then click each effect. There are 15 effects, so that's 30 clicks to get through the list instead of one click to open the list and then scrolling the list with the arrow key(s) to see the different effects on my selected box. PS - I reported the same problem with Corner Options; I can arrow/scroll horizontally, for example,…1 vote -

cannot scroll to preview corner options
InDesign 16.3 CC download, Win64: In previous versions of InDesign I could select a text or image box, open the 'corner options' drop-down list, and arrow/scroll through the options to preview the effect of each on the selected box. In InDesign CC, I can arrow through the list but no previews are shown on the selected box. Instead, it takes 12 clicks to re-open and select each of the six options. I have posted this problem in the community, with responses from Bill Silbert and Steve Werner. They concur that it's an InDesign/Windows Bug.

'see' reference in index
InDesign CC, latest version
Strange bug (or at least unwanted behavior) I encountered today in Indesign:
For a new book project, I used an earlier book as a template (a lot of the settings and styles should be the same), replacing all the text and images. The index in the earlier book contained 'see'-references. For the new book I generated a new index ('replace old index' checked), and the 'see'-references (just these) from the old book also showed up!
I would expect checking the 'replace old index' box would prevent this.
Not a big deal (the faulty entries were easy…1 vote -

Cannot see open file windows (v 16.3.2)
I upgraded to InDesign v 16.3.2 this morning and now I am not able to use it, as file windows are not visible. The Windows menu lists the files that are open, but they cannot be seen.
Update: discovered that files can be seen if Application Frame is switched off under the Windows menu, but nothing can be seen if it's switched on again.

CC Library panel freezes and is unusable until InDesign is re-launched
In the last update or perhaps the one prior, the CC Library panel freezes and is unusable. You can't select anything, search for anything, or change libraries.
Closing the panel and opening it again has no affect.
The only workaround is to quit and re-launch InDesign. The panel will then work for a time but will freeze again at some point.
This horrendous bug is in addition to a new annoying one where you can't drag and drop a graphic from the document INTO the CC Library panel to add it. You have to select the graphic, then click the…

InDesign Workspace Keeps Disappearing
Since the latest update of InDesign every time I leave the program and then come back my side panel workspace goes away. I have to select a different workspace and then reselect my saved space to get my setup to show up.
