Can not open new document or a new file I'm working on.
It happens once in a while. It has no connection to corrupted files.
The Indesign is open, but the document it self doesn't show! Also if I ask to open a new document.
Tried Relaunching, Tried Updating to Version.
It all seems to work as a VOODOO ... Very annoying!

text variable "Year>Modification Date" prematurely outputting "2020" (in 2019)
I just updated to InDesign 2020 on 12-27-2019 and today (12-30-19) was updating some ID documents that have a text variable in the master pages (defined as Year > Modification Date), which suddenly (a few days premature!) is now showing up as 2020, even though we're still in 2019! I thought that changing it to Year > Output Date (which changes the field to show the correct 2019) was a temporary solution, but then my new PDFs output with the date field changed to 2020! ANY document I generate a new PDF from now automatically changes the date field to…

InDesign Documentation
I found out through Adobe support that page transitions in an interactive PDF created using InDesign only work in full screen mode. If this is true, your documentation should state this.
I also found out that the SWF function has been removed for InDesign 2020. Please update your documentation to let users know that this is no longer available in 2020, but is still available in 2019.

InDesign 15.0.1 create new guides stops working and all guides disappear
Mac 10.13.6, InDesign 15.0.1. Repeatable bug. Not related to having any browsers open.
Create new document, can drag guides to page and see them OK. Paste elements on to page, still OK to create guides Adjust margins and columns, still OK.
THEN, adjust Document Setup (for me, adding bleed) and all guides disappear. You can drag a guide from rulers and it looks like it is there, but when you click elsewhere on the screen then that guide disappears.
Please get this sorted. I am sorry to say that this version of InDesign appears to be the buggiest version in…

Ceñir texto
Hola,
al actualizar documentos anteriores a la versión 15.01 de InDesign las imagenes con ceñir texto el sangrado es incorrecto, provocando cambios en la maquetación.
Si ese mismo documento se abre en la versión 14.03 la función de ceñir texto funciona correctamente.

2020 Pages Window Broken
Ever since updating to Indesign 2020 the pages window just doesn't work. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling a number of times but no matter what I do it just shows it as completely blank. This makes it extremely difficult to access anything, let alone my master pages.

You are able to open, already opened documents
Indesign 2020
At the office we work as a team on the same documents. It is important that only one person at a time can work on a document. With the new 2020-version, you are able to open the same document on two computers... with a big risk to save over/erase, the changes that the your college has done.1 vote -
Strange Whitespace areas
I am using CC2019 and the have the same issue in CC2020. I have mysterious areas of whitespace that I can't use appearing on my pages. Please see the attached file. The file is part of a book. Page 110 (relative to book's start, the third spread in the file) is where the trouble starts.
I don't mean to be a nuisance but sorting this out is rather urgent. I am going to destroy the document and start again out of desperation.
Kind regards

format de document
Les fenêtres indiquant le format de document sont trop étroites et n'affichent pas les valeurs en entier.
par exemple : 2500 mm, le 2 est tronqué
ou comme sur la pièce jointe pour 370,2 mm et 262.2 mm, le chiffre des centaines n'apparaît pas à l'écran.

When converting files to a new version, some converted files have "copy" added to the name.
Opening a book from a previous version, with automatic doc conversion selected, causes some files to be overwritten when saved with "copy" added to the name. This nuance has caused a cascading calamity for our file management. If this function is intended, then it's execution is downright dumb. Nowhere was this pitfall mentioned when opening the files and saving them. Automatic Document conversion should be just that, automatic. Not 'automatically' mess up my naming conventions and filing system.
Shame on you Adobe.
1 voteThank you for reaching out to us.
Can you confirm the version of InDesign with which you are facing the issue?
It will be really helpful if you can share a screen recording of the workflow with us. It will give us unambiguous insight into the issue.You can send the video and test files to abkaushi@adobe.com

Y axis value changes when resizing document
Recently, we updated Indesign CC 2015 to CC 2018. Unfortunately we discovered a little flaw. When resizing a document (for instance A4 -> A3), objects like text boxes keep their X axis value, but the Y axis value changes! Since CC 2015 is obsolete and we couldn't reinstall it, we hoped CC 2017 would work correct, but this version has this bug as well.

indesign created white pages when I imported a Word text. There's 1311 endnotes....
I already start and stylize them... I remarked after the summary a page named endnote text. I never asked this. If if drop off this page, all the link will don't work. My question is how to delete this page without delete the link of the endnote text?

Master Pages text frame
Version 14.0.3 in Windows 7.
- Created a documents with facing pages and primary text frames
- Master A with text frame rule so can visible.
- Created Master B which is based on Master A
- Resized text frame of Master A
- Impact on master B.. Text frame shifted out of page area.
This strange behavior is while resizing using mouse drag. If resize through control panel it's perfect. But if move both mouse and through x,y control panel same strange behavior.

Diaporama - Speech note under pages
I propose that tool because it can be really useful when you prepare visual of your diaporama the possibility to write your speech under your pages in same time.
At the ending, you will be able to print a summary of your speech with markers that indicates the page number.

Problem with InDesign search and subsequent type tool use
Do you know of a fix for an annoying glitch with InDesign's search tool?
When I search for a word and the search spans into the next section/story of a document, I'm unable to type in the text frame.
Alt+tabbing into a different program and then back into InDesign is the only way I've found of solving the problem.

more than one file opens
When I open a file from the thumbnail preview image screen, another file always opens with it. This is very confusing if I work on multiple files that look similar in layout. If I open a file the old way from the File pull down menu, this issue never occurs. Having the thumbnail image preview screen of files is handy, but counter-productive if this bug continues to exist. And it has existed for several months.
