1. Weird Bug with Resize to Frame

   Resize frame to content messes up and I'm not sure if it's something to do with a setting I have set since this doesn't always happen.

   Basically, I'll have a frame around some content with text in it.

   When I hit "resize frame to content" ctrl-alt-c, it resizes the frame to the full document width, which looks like the example.

   I obviously expect the frame to resize to the content, not to be super wide like the entire document.

2. [INDD 2020 and 2021] Placed SVG InDesign ignores code dominant-baseline="hanging"

   It seems that the SVG import filter ignores code:
   dominant-baseline="hanging"
   when rendering text in the placed SVG graphic.

   For full details see the following discussion at the Adobe InDesign Forum:

6. bug: start/end line not clickable in Indesign

   Indesign 16.3.2, Apple Silicon M1 chip, MacBook Pro macOS Big Sur 11.5

   I've discovered a bug. When I try to click on the option to add a start or end to a line, the option disappears directly. So it's not possible to click on one of the options. Right now I can't add a arrow to the end of my line. I hope it will be fixed really soon!

7. New Bug Indesign 16.2.1 | Contours conversion error (inside/outside aligned)

   This bug seems to only affect older InDesign documents and graphic elements from them that were created before the update to 16.2.1. The bug can NOT be reproduced in completely new 16.2.1 documents with newly created elements!

   What happens:
   For example, if you create a circle with the dimensions 200X200mm and a 10mm thick outline, this results in a circle with the dimensions
   210X210mm

   But if you now change the contour orientation from center to inside, the dimensions change unproportionally in height:

   Instead of 200 x 200 mm the circle becomes quasi
   an "egg" 200 x 199.999 mm

   If you now set the contour to 8mm, the element becomes proportional again.
   However: if the contour orientation is now changed again from
   "Aligned inside" to "Aligned outside", a conversion error happens again.

   Instead of the dimensions 216 x 216 mm
   the dimensions are now 216 x 215.999 mm.

   In these cases, the dimensions cannot be corrected by direct input in the control palette or by clicking on the arrow keys!!!!!

   If you enter 216 mm via direct input, 215.999 mm stubbornly appears.
   If you click on the arrow keys, nothing happens in the height value! But if you change the width value now, if you have coupled the proportions (by means of the lock)
   from 216 mm
   to 216.001 mm
   and with each desperate click further 216.002 mm;
   and further. ...,003/...,004 !!!!

   Very very annoying!!!!!!!! We are the BORG! Resistance is futile!

   ATTENTION.
   This rounding error also occurs with proportional scaling with the selection tool and can be transported via copy and paste even into completely new created InDesign(16.2.1) documents. Great. Or!?

   As I said: In newly created documents with newly created graphics in Indesign 16.2.1 the bug cannot be reproduced. At least not so far ...

   Unfortunately, this means for already existing documents from previous Indesign versions, - also because the bug can be scaled - , watch out like ****!

   Keep your nerves! Even if it is colossally annoying!!!

   Well! At least the other contour bug is fixed now.
   Instead we have a new one!

   Really super ...
   is not this!

10. Edge smoothing in Indesign 16.3.2 creates lines where there should be none!

    Something that is extremely annoying and obstructive when designing. This was once different and better!

    No matter if e.g. black or dark frames with white "narrow - narrow" outline or areas that cover others, hairlines appear everywhere where there shouldn't be any.

    I don't know with which update this has crept in. But it nevt infinitely and it was no improvement.

    The only way to get rid of these lines is to disable edge smoothing completely. But then you have a pixelated view with the charm of the 80s. So this is not an alternative either!

12. Option + drag and shift to contstrain keys not working

    InDesign 16.0.2

    The usual function of holding the option key on mac and dragging an object to duplicate has stopped working. In the same way, clicking shift when moving an object or drawing a frame no longer constrains it's dimensions.

    Both of these features still work fine in Illustrator (25.1)

    The attached video show me trying to draw a square by holding shift when drawing a shape but it doesn't constrain the proportions as it should. It also shows me then trying to duplicate the shape by holding option (mac) and dragging. The cursor changes to suggest that it's working but the shape doesn't duplicate.

    This is a BIG problem for productivity as these functions are key to the way I work.

13. Handling error sizing with frame with contour (centered/outside).New bug!? Frames with contour: Are now shifted into each other after simult

    Scaling with undesirable erroneous result:
    Affects frames whose outline is either:
    A. centered or
    B. aligned to the outside of the frame
    (Frames where the contour is aligned on the inside of the frame are not affected by this error. There the scaling still works correctly as desired).

    Recently, such frames (with a contour A/B) shift into each other undesirably after simultaneous resizing (see screenshot) and lose their original arrangement to each other!

    I don't know with which version this new bug appeared,
    but it is annoying and makes work slower again.

    With Illustrator the error does not occur. There it still work as before also with Indesign!

    Please Adobe quickly correct. To correct that manually, whether with illus with lines or picture frames costs unnecessarily much time and can also quickly lead to errors in final artwork!

14. No frame edges for lines or ankerpoint visible anymore?

    Problem: Line objects no longer have "frame edges" in the normal view! Lines without line thickness, white lines (which do not lie over a background), individual nodes are thus invisible in the layout!

    To find slipped lines again or to find several rest fragments like single nodes again becomes a patience and search game!

    The (line-) or frame edges appear only if you either select everything or if you move the mouse over the line or the single node randomly (mouseover). Simple is different!

    This was not always so! No idea when this was changed! But it was a very bad decision in any case!!! This does not make working with lines easy. But nerve-wracking and time-consuming.

    Time consuming and layout though, are not a good combo.
    This reminds me somehow of QuarkXpress!

    Please Adobe, re-enable line edges via the frame edges option!!!!

15. Flipped text in PDF created from Canva

    When placing a PDF with certain stylized fonts, the text is being flipped and enlarged. Seems to be specific to Mac OS.

    PDF docs have been created in Canva. They appear correctly when opened in Adobe Acrobat Pro, both on Windows and Mac. They are being placed in InDesign, and at that time the text titles being flipped and enlarged. I am working from v. 16.0.1. This was not an issue in previous versions. When I use png docs instead, and place those, I have no issues. I have been an Indesign user for about 3 years.

16. Unable to drag & drop images into Indesign 2021 Open File

    • Set-up a new document
    • Have added text and images as normal.
    • Command + D is successful when placing an image, however, drag & drop does nothing. No image shows in the thumbnail near the cursor either.

    This is an issue as it is much quicker to drag & drop than placing the images from different locations.

    I updated to 15.1 as I normally would.

    In 15.1, particular .png files were missing. I tried to place the missing images as usual but got the error - Cannot place this file. Invalid PNG file'.

    I rolled back to 15.0.3 and am now able to place the self same files.

18. Big problems with Illustrator files in InDesign

    When I change something in a linked Illustrator file it doesn't update the image on the page in InDesign even though it's refreshed in the link tab.
    And today I saw that a part of an image was missing (a little bit was outside the image frame) in a pdf file. So I looked at the InDesign file, but it looked ok. Then I changed the image to show in high resolution and all of a sudden the page refreshed and the linked file was updated and was now showing the same error as in the pdf.
    So it seems like a file that I made in Illustrator and update something in, isn't updating on the screen in InDesign. It's been a problem for around a year now. Both me and my colleagues complain about this all the time. So I thought I should tell you. It's really annoying. So please make sure that the screen is also refreshing if I update a changed file. It used to do that, but something was changed a while ago.

19. Images not importing within frame

    Indesign has started randomly importing images incorrectly - sometimes with the frame much larger than the image, sometimes with the image out of the frame bounds, forcing me to resize each frame to fit the image. Very frustrating.

    See screenshot of image as it should import on the left, and on the right how it actually imports.
