3. The lists of entries for a cross reference is not ordered

   Some panels with items (e.g. links) can be ordered by clicking the column header. Others cannot. Among these are the lists of references to choose from when inserting a cross-reference. These seem to be totally unordered. As a result, it is a pain to look for the right one (e.g. choose from a few hundred in a large document). I consider this a bug because other panels do have this ordering

4. InDesign 2026 cursor scaling problem

   Subject: Cursor remains extremely small on 27-inch 4K monitor despite all available scaling settings

   I would like to report a HiDPI scaling issue in Adobe InDesign 2026 that affects usability on professional 4K monitors.

   My setup consists of two displays connected to the same Windows PC:

   • ASUS ProArt PA279CRV – 27-inch, 3840 × 2160 (4K)
   • KOORUI 27-inch – 1920 × 1080 (Full HD)

   When InDesign is displayed on the KOORUI Full HD monitor, the text cursor (insertion point) appears at a normal and comfortable size. However, when I move the exact same InDesign window to the ASUS ProArt PA279CRV 4K monitor, the cursor becomes extremely small and difficult to see.

   I have already tested all available scaling-related options without success:

   • Windows display scaling at multiple values, including 100%, 125%, 150%, 175%, 200%, and higher available settings.
   • InDesign Preferences → User Interface Scaling → UI Sizing set to Large.

   • Windows Compatibility settings:

     • Application
     • System
     • System (Enhanced)

   • Restarting InDesign after each change.

   None of these settings significantly improve the cursor size on the 4K display.

   It is important to note that the Windows cursor itself scales correctly and remains clearly visible throughout the operating system. The issue appears to be specific to InDesign’s text insertion cursor. The behavior can be reproduced instantly by simply moving the InDesign window from the Full HD monitor to the 4K monitor, without changing any other settings. This indicates that the problem is related to how InDesign handles HiDPI scaling on 4K displays.

   Because both monitors are 27 inches, the physical size difference is not caused by screen size but by the much higher pixel density of the 4K display. As a result, the insertion cursor becomes disproportionately small compared to the rest of the interface.

   I would also like to emphasize that reducing the monitor resolution is not an acceptable workaround. I specifically purchased the ASUS ProArt PA279CRV for professional graphic design, catalog production, image editing, and color-critical work at its native 3840 × 2160 resolution. Lowering the resolution defeats the purpose of using a professional 4K monitor.

   I kindly request that Adobe review and improve the scaling behavior of the text insertion cursor in InDesign on HiDPI and 4K displays, or provide a dedicated option to independently adjust cursor thickness and visibility.

   Thank you for your time and consideration.

5. zoom selection issue

   Zoomin using CMD+Shift results in the zoom selection moving weirdly while dragging the zoom selection and renders zooming completely unusable.

   I assume that has something to do with UI scaling?

   • 4K display set to a scaled resolution of 1440p

6. Panel Flickering

   🐞 Adobe InDesign Bug Report — CC Libraries Panel Flickering on External Monitor (macOS Tahoe)
   Product: Adobe InDesign
   Version: 2026 (26.3.1)
   Operating System: macOS Tahoe 26.3.1
   Hardware: MacBook Pro M4
   Displays: External monitor + built‑in laptop display
   Panel Affected: CC Libraries panel
   Reproducibility: 100%
   Severity: High (UI flicker makes the panel difficult or unpleasant to use)

   Summary of the Issue
   The CC Libraries panel flickers continuously when InDesign 2026 (26.3.1) is used on a MacBook Pro M4 connected to an external display. The flicker is limited to the panel UI itself and does not affect other panels or the document area.
   The flickering completely stops under two conditions:

   When the CC Libraries panel is moved to the MacBook’s built‑in display.

   This mirrors known InDesign UI bugs where panel or submenu rendering breaks only on external monitors. [community.adobe.com]

   When the user backs out of or exits the specific Library being viewed inside the CC Libraries panel.

   External monitors have been associated with flicker and UI redraw failures in InDesign, often independent of document content. [community.adobe.com]

   The issue persists across multiple documents, including brand-new ones, indicating this is panel-level behavior, not file corruption.

   Steps to Reproduce

   Open Adobe InDesign 2026 (26.3.1) on macOS Tahoe 26.3.1.
   Connect an external display to the MacBook Pro M4.
   Open the CC Libraries panel.
   Navigate into an existing Library containing assets.
   View the panel on the external monitor.

   Observed Behavior

   The bottom portion (or the entire contents) of the CC Libraries panel flickers repeatedly.
   The flicker occurs even when InDesign is idle (not interacting with the panel).
   The flicker continues across all open documents and persists after restarts.

   Expected Behavior

   The CC Libraries panel should render normally on all attached displays without flickering or redraw failures.

   Workarounds Found

   Collapsing the CC Libraries panel stops the flickering immediately.

   Dragging the panel onto the MacBook’s built-in display stops the flicker completely.

   This behavior is similar to past InDesign external‑monitor flicker issues documented by Adobe. [community.adobe.com]

   Backing out of the active Library being viewed also stops the flicker.

   These workarounds confirm the issue is tied to panel content rendering + external monitor GPU/UI pipeline, consistent with known external‑monitor flickering behaviors previously reported in InDesign. [community.adobe.com]

   Additional Notes

   GPU Performance toggling (on/off) does not resolve the issue, though enabling GPU was suggested as a workaround for similar InDesign flicker behaviors in older versions. [indesign.u...rvoice.com]
   The problem does not appear related to rulers or overprint preview (prior known flicker triggers).
   Appears to be a new UI repaint issue introduced in the 2026 build.

11. unexpected window scaling

    InDesign prerelease 21.1 on MacOs 15.6.1 MacBookPro 16” M2pro (with connected 4K screen, or not).
    After lanching InDesign and opening a file, this one fits to full internal screen. If you open a second doc on the same window in a new tab, it resizes the window to full internal screen (even if you resized it to a less size) but window is a little higher. If you move the window to the external 4K screen and open a new doc, there is no bug : the window don't resize.

12. Typing reverses in import dialogue box field after error

    InDesign 21.0.2. Language: UK English.

    Immediately after a "You have not entered a valid cell range" error when trying to import data from an Excel file, typing reverses in the cell range field, i.e., 'print-area' becomes 'aera-tnirp' or 'A1:D5' becomes '5D:1A'.

    This isn't a consistent error. By the way, both 'print_area' and 'A1:G50' are valid cell ranges. Resaving the .xlsx file, even down to a .xls, does not resolve the issue. Named ranges do not appear in the cell range drop-down.

14. InDesign CC 2026 - Arrange windows does not use full screen area

    When using InDesign without the application frame ("Anwendungsrahmen" in the german version we use) active, opening multiple documents and trying to arrange them with any of the options in Windows > Arrange ("Fenster" > "Anordnen") the windows are arranged according to the deactivated/invisible application frame and not the full screen as in previous versions. Also, when the application frame is scaled to the full screen and then deactivated, the arranged windows keep a thin row on the bottom of the screen free (and overlap in the vertical center by this amount). Please see attached screens for visualization.

    1. InDesign Version: 21.0

    2. Steps to reproduce:

    3. Deactivate the application frame Window > Application frame ("Anwendungsrahmen")

    4. Create multiple documents (in this example 4 documents)

    5. Use the command Window > Arrange > "Neben-/Untereinander"

    6. Windows are arranged according to the deactivated/invisible application frame instead of the full screen area.

    7. Expected result:
       Windows arranged within the available screen area as in previous version (see attached screenshot "InDesign CC2025.png", this shows the correct behaviour in InDesign CC 2025)

    8. Actual result:
       Windows are arranged according to the deactivated/invisible application frame instead of the full screen area. Also, the bottom row overlaps the row above.

19. properties>fill panel expands off page

    Indesign Version 20.5 on OSX Tahoe

    When inDesign is at the top of the screen (i.e maximum screen size), opening the properties panel and then clicking on fill extends the fill sub menu up the screen, rendering half of the sub menu not visible unless you drag the whole application down. I don't think this is intended UI behaviour (hope not), and it's really frustrating to work with.

20. Display misalignment when dragging left and right.

    When using Adobe InDesign, I encounter a display glitch whenever I pan left and right by holding down the spacebar, resulting in visual artifacts as shown in the screenshot. The display returns to normal after zooming with the Alt key, but the issue consistently reappears upon panning again.

    I am running InDesign v20.5 (64-bit) on Windows 11.
