   The eye dropper tool in InDesign, which I use constantly, is no longer working. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling the program, resetting my workspaces, etc. What gives?

2. Hover Scrolling Disabling

   PLEASE introduce an option to disable hover scrolling on selection. If I have selected a text box and want to scroll down to align options in Properties, I always end up changing the leading, language, font, etc. I don't know anyone that would want to use hover scrolling to make those changes. Maybe click and drag like the other apps would work. Please look into this issues as it has been years and this has not been fixed.

3. Words in placed document become bold after certain characters

   When we place text from a Word file, we always strip it of all existing layout. But for some reason there are some weird unicode characters that cause Indesign to make certain words bold... I'm not able to figure out why... you have a French text where a word starts with a e with an accent like ê and that word is suddely bold... even though in the Word file it isn't.

   This also happens with Italics... I once had a text that used transliteration for Ancient Egyptian that is in italic and often starts with a "Ankh" symbol: Ꜥ with the full hiëroglyph being translated as: Ꜥ-n-ḫ.

   Indesign will flip out on this... in the end we had to replace all the Ankh symbols for @ symbols, place the text to Indeisgn and switch them back.

   Also had it once for Greek text, where words randomly become bold or italic after you place them in Indesign.

   When these symbols are in the middle of words, it's fine, but when words start with these symbols, weird stuff tends to happen when you place them in Indesign. Has been doing that for years. It's weird.

4. font menu scroll is jumpy and unresponsive on M1 MBP 16" / MacOS 13

   Bug: Scrolling the font menu in indesign is jumpy and somewhat unresponsive at times on M1 MacBook Pro / MacOS 13.
   It's hard to illustrate with video recording, so I do hope you test this.
   This has been persistent for months.

6. Adjust Layout Options - retain object adjustment but lock ruler guides in place

   When ruler guides are locked and the option to adjust locked content is deselected, the guides still move proportional to the margins. There needs to be an option to treat ruler guides as objects are treated, where it's possible to actually lock the ruler guides in place while still utilizing Adjust Layout.

10. Numbers keys on extended keyboard not recognized when trying to fit window e.g.Ctrl+0.

    Numbers keys on extended keyboard not recognized when trying to fit window e.g.Ctrl+0.
    InDesign should have the same fit to window or 100% functions as Illustrator or Photoshop.
    The only thing that does work on the extended numeric keypad is the + and - keys.
    WHY?????

11. Inconsistent names of spaces in Czech UI

    There is a mess in the names of spaces in Czech UI. The names of spaces are not consistent:

    Em Space = "Em mezera" or "Dlouhá mezera"
    En Space = "En mezera" or "Krátká mezera"
    Nonbreaking Space = "Pevná mezera" or "Nedělitelná mezera"

    Depending on the situation, the user sees either one or the other name for an identical space.

    I suggest to:
    1. Use "En mezera" and "Em mezera" only. It is not the traditional Czech name, it is an Anglicism, but quite widespread and understandable
    2. Use "Čtverčíková mezera" and "Půlčtverčíková mezera", the traditional typographic terms, nevertheless some may find it obsolete

    Terms "Dlouhá mezera" and "Krátká mezera" are confusing. It means "Long space" and "Short space". But how long? What does short means? It indicates that it is shorter than the default space, but it is actually wider. Both terms were never used in Czech language. Professionals use "Čtverčíková mezera", young people use "Em mezera". No one would ever use "Dlouhá mezera".

    As for the nonbreaking spaces, correct options for "Nonbreaking space" and "Nonbreaking space (fixed width)" are:

    Nedělitená mezera
    Nedělitená mezera (pevná šířka)
    or
    Nezlomitelná mezera
    Pevná mezera
    or
    Nedělitená mezera
    Pevná mezera

    Explanation:

    "Nedělitelná mezera" or "Nezlomitelná mezera" is the correct term for Nonbreaking space of variable width

    "Pevná mezera" is the correct name for Nonbreaking space of fixed width

    "Nedělitelná mezera (fixed with)" is a weird neologism. It is something like "Horse (with stripes)" instead of "Zebra".

12. Pasteboard flashes in sync cursor with GPU performance enabled

    In my experience, this is a new issue arising with InDesign 2023. Anytime the cursor is active in a text frame, the pasteboard flashes in sync with the cursor. If I click another application so the cursor stops flashing, the pasteboard also stops flashing. If I select the frame or something else in InDesign so the cursor disappears, it stops flashing. But anytime the cursor is active and flashing, the pasteboard also flashes. It's very annoying and distracting, and assuming it's a graphics issue, I deactivated GPU Performance. This fixed the issue. I'm on iOS 11.6.7 (with Apple M1 chip obviously). Video attached to demonstrate.

16. 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!

19. InDesign 2023 crashes when opening older InDesign files

    Can't open older version files in InDesign 2023. Using Microsoft Office 2016 64-Bit Edition (yes, I know we're really behind in our operating system). It looks like it's going to open the file, and then it crashes InDesign. Have tried restarting, re-installing InDesign and no go. Have even tried saving the old file as an IDML mark-up file and it still won't open.
