Radial gradient becomes oval when rectangle frame is vertical
Radial gradient becomes oval when rectangle frame is vertical
1) Version: InDesign CC 2018
2) Draw a vertical rectangular shape and insert a radial gradient
3) Expecting the gradient to be a perfect circle.
4) Actual result is an oval gradient that is impossible to change into a perfect circular gradient, even when holding the Shift key while using the Gradient Swatch Tool.
5) No matter what I do, the gradient remains an oval, unless I stretch the shape back to a square or a horizontal rectangle.The only annoying way I found to temporarily solve this problem is to…

White shows as black
All white (pure white such as paper, 0000, ffffff, etc.), shapes and even within linked images are showing black. Some pages are affected and some are not. If I go into the swatch slider CMYK mode, sliding K from 100 to 13 is normal, however, 12-0 starts scaling back down to black. I've tried linking to all types of images (TIFF, PNG, JPEG, transparencies). The file was fine last time I worked in it, but upon reopening this is happening. Is this a bug or a corrupt file?
2 votesYour screenshot shows that you have selected an image (linked/embedded) and applied the White swatch to it.
Could you share the file with us (sharewithid@adobe.com) to take a look?Adobe InDesign team

Help with Swatches
InDesign CC 2018
Trying to create a new swatch with "none" selected, but when I roll over "new swatch" button I get this symbol 🚫. On another forum, the correct answer was to select a user defined swatch; however, I am new to InDesign and working on my first project, so I don't have any user defined swatches.Please help. TIA

Colour picker turns everything to blank with strokes, applies stroke
Colour picker is broken. Everything is checked, but when I use it, it turns the object picked from into blank with black stroke. When applied, it adds a black stroke. This is true of text, objects, and links. Deleting local settings changed nothing.

Overprint white text when color changed in stylesheet
When changing color to 'Paper' on a selected text – it automatically is set to not overprint (correct behaviour).
However if you change the color in a stylesheet, from a color with overprint, to 'Paper'. It will remain on overprint.
Also the checkbox gets greyed out. So to fix it you must choose another color, uncheck overprint, then go back to 'Paper'.InDesign 18.2.1

Table & mixed inks on InDesign 18.1
I created a group of mixed inks from 2 Pantones (432 and 2995) in 10% increments (121 shades in total).
I create a table with alternate backgrounds (FPGP2995 shades 1 and 12). Everything's good. But when I select the first line to change it to shade 121, it systematically puts it at 20%! And if I change the percentage, it selects PFGP2995, i.e. the ink group...and the line stays white! I am attaching screenshots.

eyedropper tool not sampling correct color or images color.
Eye dropper tool has not been working in InDesign properly for weeks FIX YOUR ****. I cant take colors from images. IDK what it is doing specifically but it only seems like it is sampling text properties and solids not images. Its working perfectly fine in photoshop and Illustrator just not InDesign. Should not be encountering such a simple bug on a paid service

Pantone swatches being removed
I am currently using (and will continue to use) V 17.4 to retain access Pantone colours. I will not be updating my software as I need the Pantone colours to perform the basic duties of my job.
Please do not remove Pantones from Adobe products.

Paper color should be RGB when document is RGB
When I create a new INDD in RGB or convert from CMYK to RGB, the formula for the [Paper] swatch should change with it. Currently the [Paper] swatch is CMYK. This is causing an issue whenever I create a gradient from a vibrant RGB color to [Paper]. The vibrant color gets muddled down to the look of a CMYK conversion. The workaround I've been using is to create a custom white swatch for the gradient, or manually convert [Paper] to RGB. Both workarounds are less than ideal: having a second white swatch in the file may lead to confusion down…

Texts automatically in registration mark colour
since installing version 17.3 or maybe earlier, every time you make a new text field the colour of the text is automatically in registration marks colour. Why is that? It used to be automatically black. I already checked the portrayal of black, it is set to be correct.
I wish you would change it back to be automatically black, this is causing problems in printing especially if you're not careful enough when checking your document.Sorry my Interface is in german i hope you can still follow the recording.

Swatch gets duplicated when already in a Swatch Group
Swatched get duplicated when importing objects with the same color swatch if the original swatch is in a group.
To replicate the issue:
1. Import an object from Illustrator. A swatch is created.
OR Create a new swatch.
2. Make a group with said swatch or swatches.
3. Re-import same object from Illustrator. A new swatch will appear with the same name but ending in "2".Eg. Although a "C=100 M=0 Y=0 K=0" swatch exists (in a swatch group) the new object (which is the same as before) will create a new swatch names "C=100 M=0 Y=0 K=0 2". If…

Indesign 2023 does not use your working space
I found out when making pdfs of black only images. It was making them 4c images which is wrong. I checked my color settings which were correct. The work around is to click assign profile and select your current working space. I tried the same layouts in 2022 and it worked just fine.
