1. pasting crash

   InDesign CC 13.1 — EVERY time I copy text from another program (PDF, email, Word, ANYTHING other text within InDesign), InDesign crashes immediately upon pasting into a text box within InDesign. No spinning beach ball. Just shuts down and closes. This is untenable and needs to be fixed. Productivity and my job depend on it. Can anyone please help solve this issue? Thank you.

   To identify the cause of this issue, we had started our investigation with the aim to resolve it. You might have also received email from us seeking more details to help in our investigation.

   We’ve concluded our investigation and came up with the finding : Either the issue is fixed in the latest release of InDesign or the issue was intermittent in nature at the time of its reporting and is not reproducible now.

   We recommend you to upgrade to the latest version of InDesign 2020.0.1 (if you’re not already on it). It contains a lot of stability fixes.

   If you still face this issue even after updating to the latest version of InDesign, please submit the crash report to us. (The guidelines to submit crash are available at (https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/submit-crash-reports.html)

   We seek your support in our continual effort to improve InDesign.

2. Specific circumstances where an RGB black cannot change to CMYK

   To replicate this fault, please do the following:
   1) Create a new document using the web workspace.
   2) In the new document, open the swatches palette and note that the default colours show the RGB color spaces.
   3) From the Edit Menu, go to transparency blend space and change it from RGB to CMYK.
   4) Go to document setup and change the intent of the document from web to print.

   What SHOULD happen:
   All colours in the swatches panel should go to CMYK;

   What ACTUALLY happens:
   All colours in the swatches panel remain RGB. This results in an RGB black that cannot be changed, whilst other colours can be changed to CMYK.

   Workaround:
   1) Set the Transparency Blend Space back to RGB.
   2) Go to the document setup and change its intent back to Web.
   3) Once the intent is changed, go to document setup again and change its intent to Print.
   All colours now go to CMYK, along with the transparency blend space

   Need More Info  ·  amaarora responded

   Hi,
   This has been the behaviour since the beginning. See the link https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/object-styles.html where it states “This category is applicable only if the object is an unthreaded text frame.”

   Please let us know any use-cases where this can be beneficial so that we can process this as a “Feature modification request”

   You can ctrl(cmd)+a in a text frame and then apply the paragraph style as a workaround.

5. .Indd files look like their opening, but they and the controls are not displaying in Indd. Just missing.

   .Indd files look like their opening, the application seems to think it's open, but they and the controls are not displaying in Indd. It's just missing. It happens with any Indd file. No error. It just wont' open, but you can see the temporary file in the folder showing it's open, and it asks me if I want to save it when I go to quit. I just reinitialized my computer last weekend and reinstalled CC.

6. Font Weight Not Changing

   In the Character panel often it is not possible to change a font weight from Regular to Bold for example. I have to go in the font menu and select the font specifically.

   Also, in the character panel the menu to change weights does not change anymore when I select a different font. For example: Metropilis Black becomes Calibri Black (which does not exist).

   Clearing caches and trashing preferences does not help.

   Happens on different machines, Mac Pro at home and different iMacs at work / CC 2018 InDesign 13.01

   Resolved For User  ·  AdminRavi Kiran (Senior Lead Quality Engineer, Adobe InDesign) responded

   The stroke is always shown inside the bounding box for all three types of stroke alignments. But if you check the size of the object, it will be different for different stroke alignments.
   For example, if you have a square of 100 pt x 100 pt with a 20 pt stroke weight aligned to Center, its W & H = 120 pt. Similarly for the same square, if the stroke is aligned to Inside, its W & H = 100 pt while for stroke aligned to Outside, its W & H = 140 pt.

   This is how it has been designed.

9. page not displayed

   I am editing a long document (over 300 pages). Several non-consecutive spreads are displaying blank. When I change screen mode from normal to preview, it displays the content correctly. The same happens if I change Display Performance prom Typical to either Fast display or High Quality Display.
   Also selecting all the text (ctrl+A) takes more than 5 seconds. The same operation in MS Word is instant.

10. PDF Exporting Issue - Linked EPS wrong color

    When exporting files created w/ Id CC 2018 13.0.1, some linked eps files appear in the PDF in a totally incorrect color. I've tried embedding the files and saving as an interactive PDF, to no avail. This has happened with multiple docs . Given this issue, I'm rendered unable to print any of my projects. Any insight appreciated!

11. Dialog Box Disappears

    From time to time the Move dialogue box will not show up when called using the hotkey Shift-Command-M. InDesign then thinks a dialogue box is open and will not perform other tasks. You cannot exit the phantom dialogue box with escape. You cannot save your document. You cannot quit InDesign without manually force quitting.

    I am on Mac High-Sierra OS 10.13.1 (17B1003) and the latest Creative Cloud version of InDesign. I have had this happen on multiple computers and on multiple versions of InDesign.

    I do not have multiple monitors - however, I do use the Spaces function on the Mac OS and have multiple desktop spaces set up. I have tried passing through each of these to try and find the box and close it using escape, but it does not work.

    This problem does not happen all of the time, however seems to trigger when using the Move dialogue frequently in a fast-paced work environment.

12. When stepping an repeating

    Not really a bug, but would make more sense to put the dimensions before the number to step or have it default to a blank palette every time. If the values exceed the page then it automatically converts it back to the previous numbers. While it's an easy fix, it is still frustrating. Still, indd by far one of my faves of all time. Very artist friendly!

13. Disappearing panels

    Sometimes, when switching applications then back to InDesign, some of the panels are turned off. One that's particularly annoying is the Swatches panel. It doesn't always do it but when it does it's really annoying having to open it back up again.

    Resetting InDesign preferences doesn't fix it.

    This only seems to affect one Mac that's running El Capitan. We have others that are also on the same version of OS and same version of InDesign that don't do this.

14. Pasteboard size difference between CC 2017 and 2018 causes page view jump

    This occurs when I begin to work on a document that was made in a previous version of InDesign, which by default had smaller top and bottom pasteboard margins. The first actual action I perform on a spread — not just clicking; something like moving an object, editing text and deselecting the text box, or creating a new object — causes the pasteboard to increase in size vertically to what I presume is the new default, which also causes the page view itself to jump down. This only happens on the active spread. This also produces a graphical error if I do this first action with the pasteboard hidden.

    It does seem that changing the pasteboard margins in preferences sidesteps the issue by changing the sizes of all of the pasteboards at once. It took me several days to figure out what was happening/decide that I wasn't just going crazy and find that, though, and I'll have to remember to do this with every CC 2017 document I open to work on, which isn't ideal.

15. Outside aligned strokes are buggy

    After outlining text, putting an outside or inside stroke on it produces odd results. It seems it aligns to the absolute outside of the object, rather than the edges like it does in other Adobe programs. I've attached an example of what adding an outside stroke to an outlined 'e' looks like in both Indesign and Ilustrator looks like. This seems to effect any object that has a section cut out.

18. cannot click through InDesign to desktop or other apps after using Mission Control's window exposé feature in macOS

    It seems that after using Mission Control to thumbnail all open windows, InDesign no longer allows me to click onto other application windows that I can see underneath InDesign. So If I click on any window or desktop item visible, I get caught switching to InDesign, almost as though there's an invisible window still open and becoming activated. I can be in another app, try to click to my desktop, and it'll switch over to InDesign instead.

    Currently using InDesign CC v 13.0.1
    macOS 10.12.6

    If I quit InDesign and relaunch, it'll work again for a while. I think until I use Mission Control's window exposé again.

19. Dragging the zero point to a new location will not work in rotated spreads

    If you rotated a spread view and you want to move the zero point from the origin to a different location the landing point is never the one you dragged the cross-hairs of the rulers to.

    It needs a sophisticated script that will workaround this bug. Currently I'm writing one, that should overcome this issue.

    Nevertheless, that should be fixed.

    Watch the movie clip where I like to drag the zero point to a new loaction and always fail.

    Regards,
    Uwe

20. Cannot Pan/Scroll with WACOM pen in Open/Save/Place file dialogue windows.

    Cannot Pan/Scroll with Wacom pen in Open/Save/Place type file dialogue windows in mmany if not all of Adobe apps (where every other non-Adobe app I know of does, Apple and other 3rd parties), obviously this pertains to when you've mapped a Wacom pen button to pan/scroll to use in that manner (Wacom settings screen attached).

    What should happen is being able to interact similar to touch omnidirectional swiping which includes vertical mouse-like scrolling when pressing the button and making contact with the pen, as would be expected and Wacom designed it to do.

    What instead happens: Adobe apps interpret this as a Quick Look request on click of whatever file is targeted by cursor at the time. This defers from every system norm elsewhere on macOS, 1st and 3rd party. Never witnessed this in a non-Adobe app. Adobe apps are essentially ignoring the pan/scroll input from Wacom pens, but strangely only in those types of windows, which are standard and common macOS type views otherwise and not unique to Adobe, so the behavior expected is pretty well established.

    Note: This is not unique to InDesign. This is an Adobe Suite - wide issue. Photoshop, Illustrator reflect same unexpected behavior, and I would assume others if it's a shared thing across the CC suite of apps. That said, in all other app interactivity other than in these window types, the pan/scroll input is respected and behavior is consistent with expectation.

    ...This issue has plagued Adobe products for a long time and is not newly occurring.
