2. ?bug re bulleted lists in v18

   I have just opened an InDesign document I created in Aug 2022. I am now using InDesign v18.1 x42. It converted the document from Shivani.indd to Shivani.indd[converted], as I see it does when you open documents created in previous versions.

   However, all my bulleted lists are no longer bulleted lists, they are just text, with the bullet symbol and a single space at the start of each line. When I select the text the bulleted list icon in “Bullets and Numbering” is no longer highlighted. But more of a problem is that clicking on “options” in “Bullets and Numbering” brings up the options dialogue but everything in the box is greyed out and cannot be selected.

   Is this a known issue? A feature? A bug or unintended consequence?

   (I am using Windows 10)

3. InDesign: Insert authors document's metadata without quotes

   Version
   Adobe InDesign up to 2023.

   Steps to reproduce the issues
   Setting the active document’s metadataPreferences.author with multiple authors, separated by comma or semicolon in a string via extendscript:
   
app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.author = "Elric Wade; Anne Emu; Sophie Kumpir";


   Expected result
   The authors should be placed into the "Author" metadata field, separated by comma or semicolon.

   Actual result
   The authors are placed into the "Author" metadata field, but all set within double quotes, so they appear to be one author, not multiple authors.

   Test file, screenshot, video or GIF capturing the issue (optional)
   See attached screenshot.

   Please make it possible to add multiple authors (e.g. with not quoting comma or semicolon separated strings, or by letting pass-in an array with names).

4. Links palette issue

   Hi there;

   I'm encountering a bug with the "Links" palette. Specifically, for a long list of links, the "Link info" panel doesn't preview properly, but rather overlaps the main list of links. Similarly, if a link alphabetically appears towards the bottom of the list, it isn't possible to select it from the Links palette.

   Hoping this can be fixed with the next INDD update?!

5. Paragraph panel very slow to open

   InDesign v. 18.0 / working on Macbook Pro, macOS Ventura 13.0.1

   Help! When I click on the Paragraph tools panel, it takes about 3 seconds for it to open. Other panels (characters, styles, swatches, etc.) open immediately.

   This is a new issue with this version of InDesign. Is there something I can do to fix this?

6. matchPreviewBackgroundToThemeColor resets pasteboardMargins to [0,0]

   In a script, app.activeDocument.pasteboardPreferences.matchPreviewBackgroundToThemeColor to 1 causes app.activeDocument.pasteboardPreferences.pasteboardMargins to reset to [0,0].

   Furthermore, setting the pasteboardMargins doesn't work after setting app.activeDocument.pasteboardPreferences.matchPreviewBackgroundToThemeColor to 1.

   (While matchPreviewBackgroundToThemeColor is set to 0 everything works fine.)

7. EPUB Export with JPG images causes a validation error for the cover image due to an **already identified** InDesign bug

   When you Export an EPUB with JPG images, it always causes a file type validation error for the cover image.

   I have already identified the bug in InDesign. Instead of turning the cover art into an actual .jpg format, InDesign instead just rasterizes the first page of the book as a .png and changes the extension name of a .png file to .jpg without actually being the correct file format.

   Please fix this.

8. Mysterious page breaks

   Through several InDesign versions there is a problem with unintended page/column breaks. The bug is discussed in this forum thread:
   https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/trouble-with-quot-mystery-quot-page-breaks-in-indesign/m-p/10838596
   The workaround to remove Keep options and Balance ragged lines isn't a good one, I really need those options in a lot of my styles.
   Sometimes it's enough to type a space at the end of the paragraph before the mysterious break for everything to pop back. This bug is a huge problem in collaboration with our InCopy clients who are not experienced users.
   The bug is currently frequently encountered in both ID 17.4 and 18.0, but have been there for many years/versions.
   I can't share any screen shots/videos since I'm working with sensitive information.

9. Paste with Formatting Button Obscures Text

   The new button to paste with or without text formatting is positioned so it covers up punctuation at the end of the text. This is a problem because you can't tell if the punctuation is correct and present unless you deselect, press Esc, etc. The button should be positioned lower, like the old OpenType button so all the text and punctuation can be clearly seen.

11. Font menu doesn't jump to the selected font in the list when font menu preview is enabled

    Pre-Indesign 18.0 when accessing the font menu it jumps to the position in the list of the current font.

    The same action in indesign 18.0 - the current font is selected in the Recent Fonts section as the top of the list. This is quite annoying.

    If Front Preview is disabled in preferences, the pre-18.0 behaviour is the result, but of course there is then no preview.

    EDIT: I set Type preferences - Number of recent font to display = 0 which has resolved my issue.

15. Object effects not scaling when using numeric adjustment

    When I scale an object using the actual size of the object, say I have a rectangle 40x40mm with a stroke size of 4 point, and I increase the size to say 80x80mm the stroke still stays at 4 points. This also applies to effects that I have given the object, like a drop shadow. All the effects are not scaled if I scale the object numerically. No matter which panel I use and of course the transformation panel is marked to scale strokes and effects. The effects do scale if I scale it by percentage like they should.
    The problem is, if I have some sort of artwork with any kind of outline and want to set the exact hight of that artwork or object, the stroke size used to be adjusted accordingly, but now just stays as it was set at the beginning.

17. Half of the Tools Don't Work!!

    This issue used to only happen sparingly and now its happens almost every time i try to use InDesign — making a 5 min edit take over an hour!

    Here are the common uses I experience...
    - I can't click on the bottom that lets you toggle from preview and regular mode, I have to right click it
    - Changing a color gets very glitchy, doesn't actually change the color to what I tell it to, just says the same
    - Can't click on the toggle to get the shape tool
    - When I click export or "save as" literally nothing happens. This is the hardest part. The only way i am able to save something is by closing out in design and the prompt comes up if I want to save or not save my work.

    The only way I've gotten it to work is by restarting the app. This used to always work to get rid of the bugs, but lately has had no effect and I just have to wait until I get lucky and the app works.

    Please advise because this has been causing me a lot of issues.

    I should also mention that I am unable to click "submit bug/feature request". Nothing happens after I click :)

20. Incorrect cursor movement when selecting text

    There is an annoying bug when selecting the text: extending the selection is working incorrectly.
    To reproduce:
    1. Select a word with the mouse. Make sure the word is in the middle of the text. Select the characters from left to right
    2. Now Shift+Left Arrow modifies the BEGINNING of the text, instead of the END.
    Why is this a bug?
    Open any other text editing software and see the difference: when selecting text with the mouse, the cursor is placed where the mouse button is released. If selecting from left to right, then pressing Shift+Arrow keys, will shrink/grow the selection AT THE END. Indesign is not following this rule, Shift+Arrows grow/shrink the BEGINNING of the text, despite, the mouse button was released at the end.

    In indesign, selecting text often selects the whitespace after. Then the user tries to deselect the trailing whitespace by hitting Shift+Left arrow - bang, the leading white space is also selected!
