Text Frame Lag when Window > Control (Panel) is enabled.
When Control Panel is enabled (Window > Control), double clicking into a text frame has a lag for about a second. Turning off the Control Panel helps but this is not a solution.
I think this lag is related to loading fonts in background for the select field – doesn’t matter how much or how less fonts are installed/loaded on Mac.
As this is a long existing performance issue yet (available since 2018), could you please consider to optimize the lag for text frames within a future update, finally?

Redefine style changes Grep Style
When redefining a style based on changes to an existing style (and that existing style has a GREP style in use), the style parameters of the style or grep style are changed. Whereas, if you edit a style directly and apply the same changes, the grep style is unaffected. See video.
1 voteIn the 1st case in your video, you have applied a local override to the Style by changing. That's why you see a + in the name of the Style. When you Redefine that Style, the overrides go away and the Style gets redefined with the new attributes.
However, in the 2nd case, you are Editing the Style directly by opening the Style dialog. So any changes you make in the dialog automatically becomes part of the Style itself and there is no need to Redefine it from the panel menu.
It is working correctly.

eyedropper + shift
Eyedropper tool bug, when I'm trying to use the optionnal command "Shift" (the eyedropper become a target), it supposed to grab only color, which is not the case on 19.0 on mac, it seems to work as a normal eyedropper :s
1 voteIn InDesign, pressing Shift with the Eyedropper Tool to grab a specific color from an Image (like JPG, etc.) works.
It will not work if you try to grab to use Shift with Eyedropper to grab a specific color from a Gradient filled object.

Incopy hyperlink Ok Button Grayed Out
When trying to add a hyperlink to a page in InCopy, the Ok button is grayed out. All the other Link To Options appear to work fine, it is only the Page option that is graying out the Ok button.
InDesign is allowing me to link it with no problem.
I'm using InCopy & InDesign 2024, but also opened an old document that was done in the 2023 versions and noticed the same issue.1 vote -
Ocultar páginas
Hola, con la nueva actualización de indesign, podemos ocultar páginas, y al exportar, estas no salen en el pdf. Esto está muy bien, pero ¿qué pasa si tenemos numeración automática y exportamos a pdf? pues que se mantiene la numeración y esto es un problema. Debería de haber una casilla de verificación o algo similar para que no enumere las páginas ocultas al exportar y así saldría perfecta la numeración sin saltar de páginas.

Missing feature: Embed INDDs placed in an INDD
So far, you can embed sort of all linked file types in an INDD, but not other INDDs. This should be possible to save a 100% fixed snapshot of a document.

Dynamic hyperlinks in endnotes exported to an interactive pdf don't work
Endnotes within InDesign are dymanic, i.e. you can move between endnote number in body copy to the endnote reference by clicking the number.
If you export a document with endnotes to a Print pdf these dynamic links are retained, so you can click on a number to go to a reference and vice-versa. This is useful when you have a document of hundreds of pages.
However, if you export to an Interactive pdf the dynamic links no longer work, which is bizarre, as this is where you need them, not in a print pdf.
I have a document containing hundreds…

Fonts not previewing correctly when choosing different font from menu
Running InDesign v19.0, but had exactly the same issue in previous versions -
If I want to swap out an existing font for a new one in a text block in my project, the font does not preview instantaneously or correctly when I am scrolling through the Character menu. Sometimes, the font disappears completely, leaving only black blocks to preview. When I press return the text block does update to the new font but not being able to live preview is making it extremely hard to make design decisions and also see if the chosen font will fit the space…

Hyperlinks sometimes don't work on publish online.
I have a document with around 14 pages, with several hyper links. Some of these work and are clickable others don't.
I have tried them as empty frames with hyperlinks, objects/images with hyperlinks and convert into button with hyperlink - none of these work on certain pages.

On waking Mac from sleep, open documents are grayed out on external monitor.
If I put my MacBook Pro to sleep with work on an external monitor, when I turn it on at another place with an external monitor, all open documents are grayed out and do not display any object. The objects are selectable, but I can't see what's in them. Switching display modes, minimizing or dragging between displays doesn't help either.
