1. InDesign still crashing when saving to external server folder/alias

   I updated to the new version of InDesignCC 2018 this morning (the November '17 update, version 13.0.1). Supposedly this was supposed to fix the Save/Save as crash but I just took the same steps as before and the crash is still happening. The steps are as follows:
   1. Create new document
   2. Save As
   3. Select folder within our shared folder (this is linked to another computer, the other computer is the "momma" so to speak in that its part of the hard drive of the other Mac (version 10.12.6). I am also running Mac version 10.12.6. We have a shared folder with multiple sub folders.)
   4. Select sub folder
   5. Save

   I then get two error messages back to back which read:

   "The network connection was lost for the file test.indd, or the file was modified by another process."

   Then a second message: "Error: Adobe InDesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected. Please restart InDesign to recover work in any unsaved InDesign documents."

   I can reproduce this issue over and over again.

   The file still saves but having to reopen InDesign over and over slows my workflow. Alternatively I have to save the files to the desktop then drag them to the folder I need them in. Both ways impact my work flow negatively.

   I have attached a file which details the report that comes up after the crash.

2. InDesign 2018 crashes when I update the links in the links panel

   InDesign 2018 crashes when I update the links in the links panel. It does not matter which size they have.
   I'm using Indesign 2018 since yesterday. Running on a power Mac 2017.
   To finish my document I had to install indesign 2017 again and start all over! What can I do?

3. InDesign CC 2018 stalls to a spinning beachball right after opening for a brief time

   On first opening InDesign in Sierra 10.2.4, after a couple of seconds of not taking any action, InDesign stalls briefly—about 3 to 4 seconds—not allowing any new action during that time. There is just a spinning beachball. I can postpone the beachball by immediately opening a menu; but after mousing away from the menu the beachball comes back. Not sure if it is trying to load something, but I currently don't have any extra extensions installed. I tried resetting preferences and removing all user install scripts, but it still did it. It's consistent every time I open the new version. I did not carry forward preferences from previous versions. My CC library is synced and not showing any connection issues. Not a major bug, sort of the equivalent of tripping over the same spot of carpet whenever you enter into a room.

   Hello All,

   Thank you for reporting the issue and allowing us some time to complete our investigation into the issue.
   As the part of our investigation, we had reached out to many of you personally over email and we could come up with the below mentioned findings.

   1. For many of the users the issue got fixed after updating InDesign to a newer version.
   2. For the majority of the users the issue was intermittent and is no longer reproducible.
   3. We also found few cases where the performance issue was identified to be related to span columns, cross-references, third party plugin etc.

   Please note that we have created separate threads for these issues and we are now working towards resolving them.

   However, over the time this thread has become too generic to serve its purpose effectively. As per your feedback and the outcome of our investigation we have created multiple threads to address each of the root causes separately and effectively.
   If you are facing any slowness in InDesign or seeing any other performance issue, we request you vote for the relevant thread or create a new thread specifying the action/workflow which is slowing you down.
   We seek your support in our continuous effort to improve InDesign.

4. Moving objects between layers using the layers panel doesn't always work

   I struggle with moving objects between different layers in an InDesign document by using the layers panel. Often it takes two or more attempts to move objects. I wonder if it's the tolerance of the buttons or if this is genuinely a bug.

6. Two Monitors - UI Window Always Loads Off Screen - Can't Resize Mac OS 14.5

   This has been a bug for at least 5 years with InDesign (see link at the bottom of the post).

   When a Mac user has two monitors, if the primary monitor is situated "lower" than the secondary monitor in a side-by-side configuration in the Display "Arrange" setting (see screenshot, main display is laptop, on right), then the windows will always load slightly off screen, locking the user out of moving them or rearranging them.

   There is a temporary fix to put the main monitor "higher" than the secondary monitor in the horizontal arrangement.

   However, this is an unacceptable long term fix. The Display Arrangement tool is so that you can position your monitors virtually how they are set up physically to make moving things between them intuitive and easy.

   Moving them out of alignment to accommodate one weird Adobe product issue is silly.

   Mac users with multiple side-by-side monitors is NOT a small part of the InDesign userbase. This is not a niche issue. Many many users have this basic setup. This bug has existed for way too long, since at least 2019.

   Please fix this.

7. Overrides are not preserved when importing and overwriting object style

   version 19.3.0.58
   But it happens in everything after CC2018

   When I update object styles on import or book sync, size and position options do not retain overrides. What is currently known is Width, Height, X, Y in Size and Position Options.

   Reproduction steps

   1. Create a document
   2. Create object style
   3. Set Width, Height, X, Y of Size and Position Options as desired.
   4. Save document
   5. Open the document that duplicated 4.
   6. Create an object and apply the object style from 2.
   7. Change to any position and size (override)
   8. Import and update the object style in 2. from the document in 1.
   9. The object in 7. does not retain its size and position and is returned to the style settings.

   Expected behavior
   8. As a result, the size and position will remain as they were before the style update.

   There was a similar post, but the content didn't exactly match, so I posted a new one.
   https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/42713450-certain-overrides-on-objects-styles-do-not-hold-wh

   Hope for improvement.

   〈にほんご / Japanese〉
   バージョン 19.3.0.58
   しかしCC2018以降すべてで起こる

   インポーティングやブックの同期でオブジェクトスタイルを更新すると、サイズと位置のオプションはオーバーライドを保持しない。現在判明しているのはSize and Position Optionsの中のWidth, Height, X, Y

   再現手順

   1. ドキュメントを作成
   2. オブジェクトスタイルを作成
   3. Size and Position OptionsのWidth, Height, X, Yを任意に設定
   4. ドキュメントを保存
   5. 4. を複製したドキュメントを開く
   6. オブジェクトを作成、2. のオブジェクトスタイルを適用
   7. 任意の位置、サイズに変更（オーバーライドする）
   8. 1. のドキュメントから2. のオブジェクトスタイルをインポートして更新
   9. 7. のオブジェクトはサイズと位置を保持せず、スタイルの設定値に戻されてしまう

   期待される挙動
   8. の結果、サイズと位置はスタイル更新前の状態を保持すること

   類似した投稿はあったが、内容が完全に一致しないため新たにポストした。

   改善を希望しちゃう。

8. BUG: Small Caps not applied correctly to Variable Text with World-ready Composer

   Using Adobe Indesign 19.3 on MacOS 14.4, Apple M1.

   Steps to reproduce:
   1. Make new document.
   2. Define a text variable "Test" with custom text "Handgloves".
   3. Insert variable in text frame.
   4. Set the composer for that paragraph to "World-ready..."
   5. Set the paragraph in Small Caps
   6. Try different fonts.

   Expected result: small caps.

   Actual Result: only first two characters are changed to small caps. Typing characters after the variable placeholder changes how many characters are changed to small caps. See attached video.

   Workaround is to change the paragraph to a non World-ready composer.

   Note: may be related to this bug.

9. Flashing screen on selecting text

   Adobe InDesign 2024

   When highlighting text with text tool or selecting multiple items with the selection tool and dragging with the mouse held down, the screen flashes rapidly between the document and plain white - this makes the ID document contents not visible on the screen so you can't actually see what you are doing - eg can't see what text is being highlighted

   Please fix asap - it is making ID virtually unusable!

11. [ID-4261362] When using real endnotes in InDesign and exporting as a tagged PDF, the tag tree isn't created correctly.

    When you use real endnotes in InDesign and export as a tagged PDF, the resulting tag tree is not generated properly.
    This behavior can be reproduced for at least for InDesign 16, 17, 18.

    Result now:
    <P>
    --<Note>
    ----<Link>
    ------OBJR
    --ALL CONTENT

    Minium correct result:
    <Note>
    --<P>
    ----<Link>
    ------OBJR
    ------Endnote number
    ----Endnote content

    In addition: The placement attribute for <Note> should be "Block".

    This can only be fixed with a lot of work in the PDF.

    Best, Klaas

12. Issues with epub quality on the new 2023 update

    I'm a book publisher. I downloaded the latest InDesign update last week. I created the files and saved them like in the previous software. However, the vendors are all rejecting the epub files stating they're not validating in their epub software. I had to go redownload the prior version of InDesign, and it works like a charm. The glitch seems to be in the new version of the InDesign software.

14. InDesign should apply variating substitutions from rclt

    Variable fonts may contain location-dependent substitutions, but the rvrn feature runs too early for many real-world substitutions. The solution in font-making land has been to use the rclt or rlig features instead, but at least the former is not supported by InDesign. This is a major headache for e.g. Arabic.

15. Menu bar gets stuck - Indesign on M1 Pro mac

    On a regular basis the pull down menus in Indesign will stop reacting properly: Clicking menu item will select the topic (screenshot 1), but not pull down the menu. A second click AND hold will pull down the menu, but all the sub-menus remain unavailable, they will not pull out. The issue is persisent: Restarting Indesign does not fix it once it starts occuring, but restarting the computer will fix it. The issue may be OS related, but it only occurs in Indesign, and only on my M1 Pro computer, not my older Intel mac.

    The issue usually occurs after Indesign crashes, something which unfortunately happens multiple times a day using Indesign on M1 Pro. Having to restart the computer multiple times a day has not happened to me since the days of OS 9. I am using a couple of plugins in Indesign, which may contribute to crashes, but I also have an Intel Mac with the same version of Indesign, and the same plugins, and am having no such issues there.

    This problem was recently flagged as resolved, but despite the newest InDesign and MacOS versions it is still possible for two users to open the same Indesign file. We are working on a network volume over SMB and it is possible for my colleague to open the same file I am working with. The *.idlk file was generated by the first user, but it is not recognized by the second Indesign user and sometimes subsequently just disappears.

    I also tried to reproduce this issue with Indesign 2020 but all worked just as expected.

18. Adobe InDesign opening files as read-only

    I am using InDesign v 16.2.1 on a MacBook Pro (Intel) running Big Sur (11.3.1) and connected to a file server on the network via the SMB protocol. Also I have Sophos Endpoint Protection installed. When attempting to open a file on the file server, InDesign opens it in read-only mode. If I attempt to do the same with Sophos turned off, the file opens read-write. It appears that other InDesign/Sophos/Mac customers have experienced the same issue:

    I am formally requesting a resolution to this issue, as it seems this is a common problem for people working on network-attached storage.

19. Indesign M1 Beta expired

    The beta suddenly stopped working and won't allow med to access InDesign on the M1 machine, no update on the Creative cloud installer beta section, and removing and reinstalling the app doesn't solve it.

    Will there come a new beta update soon?

20. Saving BOOK file (.indb) acts as SAVE AS

    Adobe InDesign v16.1 (12 Feb 2021 release)
    Windows 10

    This bug has appeared again, after disappearing for a couple of versions. But it was in a previous version a few months ago.

    When the Book properties panel is open, I make changes to my Book file (.indb) and then close the Book panel or select "Save" from the panel menu. It asks me do I want to save.

    Yes, I want to save... but the dialog box is acting like a Save As... It's asking me for a file name, then asking me to overwrite the existing file, instead of simply saving the existing file as a regular Save should do.
