The Senior Lead Software Engineer of InDesign calling his own decision to change something for the objective worse an "issue" that they're investigating is very funny, and that they can't even fix this within a month is positively hilarious.

25 years of muscle memory - why would you even consider changing this? Is it Adobe’s mission to completely hinder our workflow?

New update today, still not fixed. Disappointing.

At least 36 people lost time and money to write down this post, comment and vote it. You, Adobe, must refund people for all time and money they waste for your distractions or lack of coordination between developers. This is not a bug, this is between distractions and incapacity.

There was no good reason to switch this. The potential to lose hours of work due to muscle memory trained after YEARS of using the product does not outweigh any possible benefit. It's like literally punishing your most loyal, longtime users.

@Anders: I can't reproduce this; Cmd-S and Cmd-D work as expected for me in the InDesign 2025 dialog.

IMPORTANT about Command + S.

Command + S has always been the shortcut to SAVE in MacOS.

In this dialog window Command S => DO NOT SAVE.

Thanks for confirming that these buttons are indeed swapped. I thought it was me going mad.
Please, Adobe put the buttons back. This change makes absolutely no sense.

FIX IT.

Do something about it!!! Swap it back! This is really critical problem for many of us! Thank you.

Adobe, please, come back ASAP to previous (as all other softwares) positions.

This must be changed. Now I always have to really think and read the dialog.

I really hope this was an oversight or a general ***** up as I couldn't imagine the thought process behind swapping these. Its not only different from previous iterations, but also different from the current other Adobe programs. Please swap these back. I haven't accidentally clicked "Don't Save" yet, but it's coming.

I haven't accidentally not saved a project yet, but with InDesign's buttons swapped like this and the others are still in the same place, it's going to happen to me. Fix this back, please.

As said before, this is really annoying! Adobe does this all the time, changing things in updates that don't make sense...I can only image, just to annoy people. Please change this back!

I'll tell you why - because this app has essentially been abandoned by adobe, and by doing pointless changes like this that achieve LESS than nothing they are seen to be 'updating' this unstable, bug riddled mess of an app instead of actually making the changes is users actually want an need.

Why was this switched? I’ve been using adobe products from the beginning and indesign from V1. I obviously have a muscle memory for this. Please change the cancel/don’t save back.

Why were the "cancel" and "don't save" buttons swapped for Adobe '25 products? Why was this switch made? Makes no sense. I am having to unlearn 25+ years of muscle behavior. Why!

I cannot believe they've done this when the app has so many other issues. Pointless change just for the sake of it.

The number of times I think I've closed something only to discover I haven't is getting ridiculous. Why would you even change this!
