Applying a different swatch not always working (bug?)
It happens every now and then that changing the color of text by selecting the text with the text tool and clicking on the desired swatch does not change anyting. You can select the desired color, but the text color stays the same. It does not seem to be document related and is not always happening. If you use the color picker to select a random color from the document, the problem disappears. You can find more comments and examples on this issue in the Support Community: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/can-t-change-colors-from-the-swatch-panel/m-p/11859690

Certain overrides on Objects Styles do not hold when synchronizing Book
Overrides on Objects Styles when synchronizing.
Object styles: I have all the overrides (that I tested, such as background color, type of stroke) holding, BUT the XY coordinate. (position of the object on the page)
When I hit sync, all the overrides hold, including the size of the object (which is in the same Style menu), but not the Position. This means all the objects with the Style on it jump to their default position, resulting in a bad mess.
My imperfect solution is to remove the XY position from the Object Styles — I want to be able to…

Tables with slanted header row
When tables have long names for column headers, a good design solution is to ***** the header cells and their text, from 20-70 degrees.
The table still needs to be live, editable, and adjustable (both the cells AND text) so that when needed, the headers can be changed from 60 degrees to 45 degrees.
And when exported to PDF and EPUB, it needs to have the required accessibility tag structure:
<Table>
<TR>
<TH> (header)
<TH> (header)
<TH> (header)
<TH> (header)
<TR>
<TD> (data)
<TD> (data)
<TD> (data)
<TD> (data)See attached screen cap of slanted column headers.

endnotes hyperlinks
Endnote hyperlinks are not working both ways.
(1) I can go from text to the endnote by clicking on the endnote number in the text.
(2) However, I can not go back to the text from the endnote by clicking on the endnote number. This is because the endnote number has been modified - font type, font size, and indents.4 votes -

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.

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.

InDesign very slow after update to 16.0 (x64), especially data merge
Opening the app takes well over half a minute, used to be within 5 sec. Closing with save can take over a minute for a single master page with three variable placeholders. The app feels sluggish to use and there is a visible delay after performing any action, ranging between a fraction of a second and a few seconds.
This last one has always been the case, but after update it is even worse: exporting a PDF using data merge renders the machine unusable. Mouse cursor moves with visible skips and lengthy delay between those skips, regardless of complexity of…
