  2. Type vanishes once edited in text boxes

    Following update of OS to Monterey 12.0.1 and using InDesign 2022 17.0.1, opening files that had been previously created, when editing text within text boxes, as soon as I click elsewhere then the text within the box vanishes - as thought there's not enough room for it, when there is.
    Sometimes clicking back on it causes it to reappear, sometimes the box just won't return as a visible element.

  4. InDesign 17.01: UI scaling range issue on high-DPI monitors

    PROBLEM:
    Since new UI scaling was invented in ID 17.01 all panels are displayed way too big and overlap in my resolution setup @ 2560x1440px and Windows OS scaling factor of 125%.

  5. InDesign Effects applied directly to Text do not update when the text is changed

    Some effects that are applied directly to the text do not update when the text is changed. If the same effect is assigned to the text frame (object), this error does not occur. Switching to GPU Preview or GPU Acceleration on the Mac or turning off the same option has no effect on the error.

    Windows 10 mit InDesign Version 16.2.1 x64, only a time delay is noticeable.

    On Mac
    Mac OS Catalina Version 10.15.7 mit InDesign 2021, 16.4
    Mac OS Catalina Version 10.15.7 mit InDesign 2022, 17.0
    the effect remains for the old text until you save the file…

  9. Issue in saving multi-page PDF as IDML

    Hi,

    I placed multipage PDF in InDesign and embedded the links.

    Then I haved the document as IDML, so all the pages are getting replaced with the first page of PDF.

    For example I have a PDF (test.pdf) having 4 pages, then links will be : test.pdf, test.pdf:2, test.pdf:3, test.pdf:4

    But after saving it to IDML, links are getting converted to test.pdf, test.pdf, test.pdf, test.pdf. Means page number is getting lost from the link.

    And all the pages will have content of 1st page only.

  10. Cross-reference doesn't find all instances of a ¶ style

    When I try to insert or edit a cross-reference, InDesign finds only about half the instances with the specified ¶ style, so I can't insert the needed cross-ref.

  11. InDesign: Changing color of TIFF

    Having an issue with InDesign. I've placed a TIFF file and its not displaying correctly when color is changed for BLACK only. See video attached. I can change the color percentage on any color but black.

    However, when a PDF is exported the changes are applied and display correctly on a PDF. This is a DISPLAY issue within InDesign. PLEASE HELP!!!

  12. Can't rename object in 2022

    Same issue like here, but posting this again to get a response to this, because the response below that post is a big joke. The admin assumes that the bug report is too stupid to rename an object. But the gif clearly shows that 1. the admin hat the window arranged differently and 2. in the gif with the bug you see the rename window flickering.

    I did the work adobe should do and tested it a bit.

    The result is different depending on if the windows is floating, docked or expanded. Float and expand works, dock not.

    I have…

  13. Thumbnails in Pages Panel are blank even though pages have content (Id 17.0, Mac Big Sur)

    The thumbnails displayed in the Pages Panel show up blank even though there is content in the pages themselves. See attached. This is most likely a bug.
