Odd ruler behavior
Ran into a new issue with IND 14.0.1. When setting the display to picas, i got a "6" measurement in between the primary numbers -- it's not incorrect since there's 12 points to a pica but it's something that never happened before. it's a bug because right-clicking on the margin and selecting custom, i changed the value to 6 points, and then changed it back to 12 points, and then changed it back to picas. the odd "6" was gone.

Every time I start InDesign the "View by Group" notification pops up in my CC Libraries, even after clicking Cancel or "View by Group." See image...

Cmd + F (Ctrl + F) should not close the Find/Change dialog
Repro:
1. Cmd + F to open a Find/Change dialog. Don't close the dialog (with Done, or Esc, for example).
2. With the Find/Change dialog still open(which is fine; I plan to use it again shortly), resume typing into the document.
3. Click Cmd + F again. What I expect is that the application focus becomes the Find/Change dialog. But what happens instead is that the Find/Change dialog closes. I can't tell you how many times I end up mistakenly typing content into my document that I think is being entered into the Find/Change dialog instead.The simple solution here…

Custom story editor text color to does not change picture box icon color rendering invisible on black background
When changing the Story Editor Display text color to something other than black, the picture box icon color does not change to match. If the background is set to black (such as with the "Terminal" theme), picture boxes are no longer visible in the story editor. Only can be seen when highlighting the text.
Would like the picture box color to match the text color when using story editor.

New Document Thumbnails
I don't see the added value of the 'Thumbnails' in the New Document panel.
Those are rather confusing than functional, since all have the same aspect ratio.
Won't it be nice when the default icon reflects the actual orientation and aspect ratio?1 voteThis has been fixed in later versions of InDesign, check the latest version for change.

Adobe InDesign 14 always launches on a wrong monitor out of two.
All good with Photoshop, Illustrator, etc, but Indesign keeps opening every time on a wrong monitor no matter what. Plus, even when you drag it to another display, all the dialog boxes keep appearing on a different monitor. Moreover, it resets your workspace to Essentials every time and it take you some time to set it up again after start. Annoying and counterproductive
Thanks,

Quadclick to edit text in grouped textframes doesn't work anymore
(14.0.1 x64, Windows):
Switching from CS6 to CC.
The Task: you have a group of items. The groupd also contains a textframe with some text. You want to edit this text. There is a change in the way you can "click-into" the group and into the text edit mode.In CS6
- you doubleclicked on the textframe in the group (that selected the textframe in the group), and you doubleclicked again onto the text to get to edit the text (textcursor). It was fast. Basicly a quad-click.In CC:
- That quad-click doesn't work. You have to doubleclick-PAUSE-doubleclick. And that…1 vote -
page tab
Thumbnail page numbers does not show at the bottom of pages tab.
It has a easy work around of extending the tab in documents that are not too long, or counting the page numbers, anyway it's an annoying UI problem.

InDesign CC 2018—Page shifts when browsing with key commands
Browsing pages using Command+Page Up/Down or Fn+Shift+Arrow Up/Down shifts page slightly left and down. Infuriating when trying to see if elements are properly aligned between pages. The rulers seem to shift as well.
I'm using Indesign CC 2018 version 13.1
My document size is 4k 3840 x 2160 px. When my doc is 1920 x 1080 px the page shifting does NOT happen.
Any ideas why this is happening and how to fix it?

Indesign CC2019 14.0.1 - Some panels collapsed after restart
Indesign 14.0.1 x64, german, Windows8
I have "Character", "Paragraph|Stories|Attributes", "Layers", "Color"-Panels docked to the left side of Indesign on Screen 1. I also have several other panels stacked but freefloating on a second screen. No panel is ever minimized. No panel is ever collapsed in my setup. I always have them expanded and open. This is my standart workspace. After closing Indesign and starting it, sometimes it collapes the left-docked panels. The freefloating panels on screen2 remain ok.
In settings "auto-minimize panels" is OFF.
"Auto show panels" is checked "ON".Please see screenshot attached.
Expected behaviour is - of course…

panels keep moving
The tool panels keep changing position, flying out or closing in a seemingly random manner. Certainly their movement is counter productive to any given use.
I've just updated to ID 2019 and my panel positions are all lost. This is after several month of wrestling with the demented behaviour Adobe has given them.
In the 'old' days, one set up the panels how preferred and pretty much left them alone.
Could Adobe please return to this functional panel behaviour and stop them flying out, moving about, or getting lost on each update?
Having to click things open and close don…

[CC2019] [Bug] Sort by name not automatically applied
After a designer applied "Sort By name" in the paragraph style panel, and adds another style or renames a style, the style list is not automatically sorted again. The panel doesn't keep the list of styles automatically sorted by name.
