Can't select gradients from swatches
Since installing the new InDesign 2021, I'm not able to apply my colour swatches to the gradient bar. When I click on a colour swatch, it changes the main fill rather than the gradient colour.
This was working before the update.
3 votesTo apply a swatch to one of the gradient stops, you have to hold down the Alt key and then click on a Swatch in the Swatches panel. Clicking directly on any of the swatches changes the fill color of the object to the Swatch color instead of changing the color of the gradient stop.
Please confirm the above in the previous release as well as InDesign 2021.—

Error on Save : "Indesign is unable to save this file. We tried, but appears to be damaged."
Indesign constantly comes up with a weird error when ever I click save while in a document - 'Indesign is unable to save this file. We tried, but appears to be damaged. click Ok.
Also I know in the previous version that whenever I zoomed in too much I would get constant crashes. Hope it's been fixed in the version but I won't hold my breath.

Dialog Boxes Missing
Common dialog boxes are not appearing normally on macOS. The dialog boxes include: missing/updated links as a document is open, Export PDF flows, Open, Save As. The boxes seem to activate in the incorrect space, or don't appear unless focus is given to another app by switching and then switching back to InDesign.

InDesign 16.0 saves Converted files in last used folder, not containing folder
On Catalina OSX (10.15.7), InDesign 2021 (16.0) saves a Converted file to the last used Finder folder, rather than the folder the document is contained in.
Happens with 'Save As...', as well as saving InCopy assignments.

Some Thai characters are misplaced when not using World-ready composer
2 votesInDesign has started supporting SEA languages since ID 2020. Adobe WR composer needs to be selected to compose in SEA languages correctly. Since Thai is a SEA language, please use Adobe WR composer for the correct composition of the text.

InDesign 2021 (InDesign 16.0) locked when left unattended for an hour.
This was installed for me overnight, and appeared to be running as expected. When I left my computer running for an hour while I ate lunch I came back to find the application locked. When I tried to force it to quit the entire machine locked, and I was required to force it to shut down and restart.

indesign for mac pauses
InDesign CC 15.1.2 with a VPN connection to a server continually gives me the spinning beach ball whenever I do the simplest thing, even when the document itself is on the desktop (but has to be connected to images on the server). It's on a Macbook Pro 15,1, running Catalina with 32GB ram, 2.6Ghz 6-Core Intel Core i7. It's been happening since the last 2 updates.

type in circle
Hi, did the feature to put text in a shape in InDesign 2020 go away or is this a bug? I used to be able to draw a circle, select the type tool and click on the circle and add type to the shape. This method doesn't work in either the 2020 or 2019 versions of ID, but it does work as usual in Illustrator 2020. Thanks so much for your help.

Adobe InDesign 2020 - All text in my Indesign file that contains hyperlinks disappear
(cont.) even though the hyperlinks panel show the links themselves the text is gone and I can't get it back. Hours of work is gone.
I first started seeing the text is pushed together in the epubs I would export, especially moreso on the words with hyperlinks. After fixing a few things I export another epub and it is completely gone and it is also gone in the indd and idml files.

Disable object stroke effects is not working
I'm trying to disable strokes inner and outerglows in a specific object style using the code:
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var myObject = doc.objectStyles.item("box");
myObject.strokeEffectsEnablingSettings.enableInnerGlow = false;
myObject.strokeEffectsEnablingSettings.enableOuterGlow = false;But all I got is the behavior in the attached image. Is not really disabling and the effects is still active in the object.
Posted the issue in a forum and we all realize that's a bug.

Indesign Saving Files
In Indesign, the Interactive PDF save option needs to specify the file size before saving, how many MB will be. Just like when we save a JPEG file in Photoshop, it will tell you how many MB of the file will be before saving.
I would appreciate it if you take this suggestion into consideration.
Thanks.
