nested style bug
InDesign 16.0 and 16.0.1
Mac OS 11.1.1I am struggling with adding a custom character to the 4th column of the nested style definition. I can pull down the menu to access the presets, but when I want to add a custom character (like Opt+8 for a bullet) it's not working as expected.
If I'm persistent, I can type it in sometimes, and sometimes it takes it but still shows the first menu item (Word).
This is happening in multiple documents. I have reset preferences and installed 16.0.1, with the same result.

Color changes when overprint preview is switched on.
Hi,
With the latest version of InDesign v16.0.1 running on macOS Catalina, a strange phenomenon appeared. When "Overprint Preview" in switched on displayed colors change. Oranges become reddish. When the images/vector graphics are checked in Photoshop or Illustrator they look OK.
When Overprint Preview is OFF, colors are displayed correctly. But when OP is turned on, they change. Most drastic change takes place in the orange-red region.
Attached are two screen shots.
Bet regards,

text frame anchored causes ID to hang
I have a text frame (with text wrap, and also an inline image) anchored to a line of text in the main story.
When I adjust this frame while it is still anchored, it causes ID 16.0.1 to hang. This is the same behaviour as in versions before. No crash report because of ID 'just hanging'. The fix is force quitting.
macOS 11.0.1. This was also happening with earlier versions of macOS.
The remedy is: 'Free' anchored object, make adjustments, and re-anchore the frame.Added info:
possible connection: this happens when anchored to text with paragraph shading!1 vote -

pdf export

- I have tried exporting to idml and saving again as I have seen suggested elswhere
- I have tried restarting my computer, and inDesign many, many times.
- everytime I try to export the file it gets most of the way through, then hangs on the same percentage everytime.
- Background tasks shows an error / warning, but gives no clues as to what it is.
- no matter how long I leave it (hours) it will not advance past the stuck…

set default open folder
Upgraded to ID 16.0.1x64 today on a Win 10 64 system. File Open, or File Save, both want to use "This PC > Documents" and not the original file folder. Didn't have this problem prior to the upgrade.
How can I set the default file open folder?

Option-Click and Drag
InDesign 16.0.1. (and prior)
I updated to Catalina OS on Mac. Option-Click no longer works as it should. It is supposed to straight duplicate one time. Now it is acting as a step and repeat and is creating 2 duplicates instead of one. Please help. I can't find how to fix this.

Rotate effects same direction with page rotation
When you need to rotate a page (180º) effects applied to a text frame aren't keeping the same viewable as it was originally set.
i.e: If you have a text with a Drop shadow applied with an angle of 135º if you rotate the page 180º the effect applied is upside-down, not following the original X and Y position, it should be -45º to keep consistency, please see attached jpg
Make sense?

Flipped text in PDF created from Canva
When placing a PDF with certain stylized fonts, the text is being flipped and enlarged. Seems to be specific to Mac OS.
PDF docs have been created in Canva. They appear correctly when opened in Adobe Acrobat Pro, both on Windows and Mac. They are being placed in InDesign, and at that time the text titles being flipped and enlarged. I am working from v. 16.0.1. This was not an issue in previous versions. When I use png docs instead, and place those, I have no issues. I have been an Indesign user for about 3 years.
4 votesThe fix for this issue is available in the latest InDesign release 16.2.1
Please update to this latest version to get the fix.—
