2. 検索と置換で置換文字列のテキストボックスに入力した文字が勝手に変わる

   「検索と置換」で正規表現の検索テキストボックスに入力し、置換テキストボックスに検索テキストボックスからコピーした文字をペーストして、置き換えたい文字に修正する。
   マウスをテキストボックス外でクリックすると修正前の文字列に戻てしまう。
   ＜行った操作操作＞
   １．検索「Taro: 」と入力
   ２．「Taro: 」をコピーして置換のテキストボックスにペースト
   ３．置換で「Taro: 」を「taro:\t~(」に修正
   ４．ポインターをテキストボックスから外し、クリックすると「Taro: 」に戻る。

4. Feature Requests: Table Cell Intersection Styling and Multi-Page Table Cell Support for Merged Cells

   Request 1: Multi-Page Table Cell Support for Merged Cells
   Current Problem:
   InDesign cannot break merged table cells across pages, creating significant limitations for complex hierarchical tables. When a merged cell spans more rows than can fit on a single page, the entire table becomes unviewable or requires manual workarounds.
   Real-World Scenario:
   • Level 1: A main category (e.g., "Strategic Goal") spans 30 rows
   • Level 2: 30 detailed items, each in individual rows
   • Current Issue: The merged cell cannot break across pages, making the table unusable
   Proposed Solution:
   Implement automatic cell threading for merged cells across page breaks, similar to Microsoft Word's functionality:
   • Allow merged cells to split naturally at page boundaries
   • Maintain visual continuity with repeated cell content or indicators
   • Preserve cell formatting and styles across page breaks
   • Optional: Add "Keep with next X rows" setting for better control
   Technical Benefits:
   • Maintains InDesign's superior table styling capabilities
   • Enables complex document structures without design compromises
   • Reduces manual workarounds and increases productivity
   • Aligns with user expectations from other professional document tools

   Request #2: Table Cell Intersection Styling
   Current Limitation:
   Table cells cannot have rounded corners or customized intersection points because cells share borders rather than having independent edges.
   Conceptual Innovation:
   Instead of trying to add "corner radius" to cells (which is geometrically impossible with shared borders), introduce Intersection Point Styling.
   Proposed Feature: "Intersection Styles"
   Similar to current Line Styles, add styling options for where cell borders meet:
   Intersection Style Options:
   • Round: Curved intersection points
   • Beveled: Angled corner cuts
   • Notched: Small decorative cuts
   • Custom: User-defined intersection shapes
   • Weighted: Different styles based on border thickness
   Implementation Details:
   Current: Line Style (solid, dashed, dotted, custom)
   Proposed: + Intersection Style (round, beveled, notched, custom)
   Technical Precedent:
   • SVG supports stroke-linejoin properties
   • CSS has similar capabilities with border-radius and border-collapse
   • Vector graphics software already handles line intersections
   Benefits:
   • Maintains table structure integrity
   • Provides design flexibility without breaking functionality
   • More logical than impossible "cell corner radius"
   • Expandable system for future intersection decorations

   Impact Statement:
   These improvements would:
   1. Eliminate major workflow barriers for complex document design
   2. Distinguish InDesign further from competitors by solving real problems
   3. Maintain InDesign's superiority in professional typography and layout
   4. Address frequent user requests without compromising existing functionality
   Both features leverage InDesign's existing strengths while addressing fundamental limitations that force users toward less capable alternatives for specific use cases.

   InDesign cannot break merged table cells across pages, creating significant limitations for complex hierarchical tables. When a merged cell spans more rows than can fit on a single page, the entire table becomes unviewable or requires manual workarounds.

5. Strange Characters (e.g., "HNY6") Appear When Pressing Spacebar with Caps Lock On (macOS Sequoia 15.5)

   Title:
   Strange Characters (e.g., "HNY6") Appear When Pressing Spacebar with Caps Lock On (macOS Sequoia 15.5)

   Description:
   I’m experiencing a bug in Adobe InDesign (latest version) running on macOS Sequoia 15.5 using a MacBook Pro. When Caps Lock is on and I press the spacebar while typing, instead of inserting a space, InDesign types a string of random characters like “HNY6.”

   This issue happens consistently and seems isolated to InDesign. Other apps (like Notes or Pages) do not show this behavior. I’ve confirmed the problem still occurs after disabling third-party keyboard tools and checking input sources. It only happens when Caps Lock is engaged and I press spacebar.

   Please investigate and resolve this compatibility issue. It impacts workflow significantly when working with all-caps text.

7. Find/Replace text (date) after using Convert Date to Text function

   I am trying to replace text in multiple stories throughout the document. Each story is formatted with text and tabs (not a table). The find/change uses the FIND/CHANGE>TEXT option. I am searching for "28 May 2025" to change it to "2 July 2025". When I search, find, find/change, and change all, the results append the page number in triplicate in front of the leading date digit. For example, page 9 (attached) is "0909092 July 2025" and page 42 is "4242422 July 2025". When I copied the text to include in this report (see attached), only date date is captured in the clipboard (2 July 20v25).

   The reason I was doing this is I wanted to change the date to a output date Text Variable. I had hoped text variables were part of find change: the find is available in GREP, but not in the Change To options.

   So, just prior to producing the error above, I added the Output Date in the position I wanted. I could not copy the variable and use it in the Change To field, so I used the Covert Variable to Text that one instance of the output date. I copied the text '2 July 2025", and used the basic Find/Change>Text intending to change "28 May 2025" to change it to "2 July 2025". That's when ID appends the six digits that are three pairs of the page number.

   Everything works as planned if I duplicate the original document, and repeating the process leaving out the Convert to Text option.

10. vertical alignment within a text box is ignoring the space taken up by a wrap object

    I'm on Adobe InDesign 20.3.1 on an M1 Max MacBook Pro currently running Sequoia 15.5, but I always keep my system and apps up to date within a day or two of an update being released.

    The text wrap isn't affecting the vertical centering of text box content in the way it should. The vertical alignment within the text box seems to be ignoring the space taken up by the wrapped object, leading to the content being centered within the entire text box rather than just the available space above the wrapped object.
    In the screenshot, you can see that the text box that overlaps with the wrapping object is centering to the entirety of the text box. A 2nd text box on the left is shortened to show where it SHOULD be aligning to. The warping object is on top of the text box, and the text box does not have "Ignore Text Wrap" checked. Any ideas on a fix?

11. MathML: Fehler der Bedienung sowie weitere Schrecklichkeiten

    MathML hat das Problem, dass, wenn man die Grundformel eingefügt hat, beim nächsten Mal im Editor keine mehr zur Verfügung steht. Problematisch ist das, wenn man den ersten Eintrag im Dokument gelöscht hat. Man sollte immer an die Grundformel kommen, auch wenn man tausendmal klickt, um es im übertragenen Sinn zu sagen. Außerdem ist die verwendete Schriftart des MathML fürchterlich ausgeführt: verschobene Ankerpunkte, ungenaue Kurven etc. Dazu kommt noch, dass die Zeichen am Rand teilweise beschnitten werden. All das ist im typografischen Sinn – unangemessen.

    Bezüglich der Kurvenführung sehen Sie sich als Beispielglyphe das y an! Ich habe einige fürchterliche Teile des y nochmals mit einigen Pfeilen an den zumindest auffälligsten Stellen hervorgehoben. Solche Schriftarten sollte man nicht im Traum für Designsoftware anbieten. Hunderte ähnliche Fehler habe ich Dutzenden Designern und Monotype gemeldet; und sie sind bis zu Nur-noch-online-Plattform dieses Konzerns auch verbessert worden. Durch die Onlinegier ist das jetzt anders und sie bieten ihren Schrott an, den ahnungslose Kunden kaufen. Diese Methode scheint uramerikanisch zu sein: Marktbeherrschung zwar, aber zunehmend schlechter werdende Qualität.

12. Interaction between Text Wrap, Optical Margin Alignment and Numbered List

    When a text frame with activated Optical Margin Alignment containing numbered list wraps around another text frame the numbering is incorrectly aligned. The affected numbers noticeably stick outside of the text frame and thus create unpleasant left margin. Only numbering on wrapped lines is affected, numbering below the wrap behaves as expected.

    Similarly, if the text frame is modified so as its border lays entirely outside of the area affected by wrapping offset, the optical alignment of the numbering behaves as expected. This at least provides some workaround.

    I am attaching a screenshot of the behaviour as well as a test file with described situations.

16. Bolding missed/changed while importing Word doc

    I'm using ID 20.2 on Mac 15.4.1.

    I am producing a book with an index that has bolding to indicate photos, but the bolding was missed or changed in a random manner when imported. It was accurate until it reached E, then there were about 200 errors that had to be manually fixed. Here were my steps:

    • Imported file word doc with Preserve Styles checked

    • Search/repace for bold and italic with bold and italics Character Style

    This should have caught all bold and italics and changed them to my style sheet – but, as mentioned, many were missed, without apparent rhyme or reason.

    Attached is the corrected sample and an error version – repeated the process in ID 2024 to see if it would work, but it didn't work there either. I looked at the Word doc, and I could see no differences in the bolded text formatting.

    This sort of error is troublesome, making my question other supposedly automated aspects of this app and costing time/money in workflow.

    Thanks,

    Gareth

17. Text box disappears when text converted to outlines

    Many sign printers require that all text is converted to outlines. When I do, any text box that has a colour defined disappears. I need to duplicate the box first and delete the text in the underlying box, then convert the above text to outlines. A bit of an arduous process.

    This shouldn't happen – it's been an issue for years.

    Can you please change it so that converting text to outlines doesn't alter the graphics – that is, the coloured and/or stroked text box remains?

    Thanks!

18. Lists ignore alignment when story is subject to object wrapping

    InDesign v20.1.

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. In a blank document, create a new story. Add a few blank lines, then a new paragraph with list settings (either bullets or numbers). Align it to center or right.
    2. Create an ellipsis and set its wrapping options to contour wrapping.
    3. Move the ellipsis so that it intersects the story above the actual list (the list doesn't have to be in range of the wrapping countour).

    Expected result:
    Nothing should happen to the list, since it's far from the wrapping area.

    Actual result:
    The numbers/bullets get aligned the left, no matter what alignment is set.

    Attached are a screenshot of a test file (aligned to the right) and another found in production (aligned center).

19. Library text frame auto-size error

    Product: Adobe InDesign
    Version: 20.2
    Platform: macOS
    Issue type: Bug
    Severity: Moderate
    Reproducible: Always

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Create a text frame with a single character (e.g. “X”).
    2. Enable Auto-Size (Height only).
    3. Save the text frame to the Library.
    4. Place the frame into a layout from the Library.

    Expected result:
    Text frame should retain Auto-Size setting and adjust to the content’s height.

    Actual result:
    Auto-Size is disabled, and the frame stretches from the insertion point to the bottom of the text frame area / margin, even though there’s only one character inside.

    Workaround:
    If the text frame is grouped with another object (even an invisible one), and saved to the Library as a group, the bug does not occur. The frame is then saved as a Graphic object in the Library, and Auto-Size works as expected.

    Suggested fix:
    Ensure that Auto-Size metadata is preserved when saving standalone text frames to the Library, as with grouped objects.

20. Converting a text URL to a hyperlink removes the instances of the text variables!!!

    1. All InDesign versions
    2. Create a URL that includes Text Variable instance
    3. URL looks and prints correctly,
    4. but hyperlink is wrong: there are no text variables values in it.

    It is obvious that URLs are convenient to generate from text variables. Especially if there are thousands of them!
    This would be a phenomenal solution not only to our problem, but...

    Instead of substituting the values ​​of text variable instances, nothing is replaced (empty strings instead of text variable instances), and the hyperlink (which looks and prints correctly in the text) is generated as invalid!
    We need to create and maintain a script to fix incorrectly generated hyperlinks, but this drawback could be solved at the highest level - just add text variable processing to the hyperlink converter!
