   Command-S shortcut activates DON'T SAVE

   InDesign 20.0
   MacOS 15.1
   Swedish language

   I noticed that Command-S activates the Don't Save button in the dialog shown in the image.

   1. Command-W to close the document
   2. The dialog shows Cancel, Don't Save and Save
   3. Command-S will activate the Don't Save button!

   I tried it on two Macs with the same setup.

   This is a serious bug and it's much worse than a crash.

   After a crash the changes will be kept by the crash restore feature. If someone use the Command-S shortcut in the scenario described here they will erase all changes with no way to get them back.

   Command-S will do a Save in the same dialog in Apples apps.

   Other users said this bug is not showing up with English language.

2. Project goes blank

   I've been using the new Indesign 20.0 and it will often go blank to a completely grey screen in the working area. I can see the toolbar, and even the image gizmo but none of the actual content. I tried switching preview modes and to presentation mode and nothing works besides just quitting out and opening it back up. It seems to happen when it's been in the background for a while and I switch back to it. It's extremely frustrating. I'm on a Macbook Pro M3 maxed out specs on Mac OS Sequia 15.0.1 (24A348).

   This may be related but even when the content is visible and I'm trying to re-position my images in their frames I can't see the box outline or handles. Whats odd is when the content goes blank I can see the image outline and handles. Not sure if the box/handle color is blending in with my background or what is going on, I just have to hover my mouse and guess where an edge is. That is a constant issue. I had tried to see if i could change the color of the box/handles but it doesn't seem so. Also very frustrating.

3. Indesign opens on wrong screen with multiple monitors (Mac OS)

   This issue has been going on for years now. I recently updated to inDesign 2025, but it's still not solved for me:

   Expected result: I've assigned InDesign to open on my external monitor, just like all my other Adobe apps.
   Actual result: It completely ignores this, and just opens on my Macbook screen. The window resize buttons will be hidden behind my menu bar, so I have to alt+drag the window to make the buttons appear again. Then I can drag inDesign to my external monitor.
   I've seen posts going back to 2019 about this issue

5. Screen tearing while scrolling

   I'm having issues with screen tearing in InDesign 2023 and 2024. I've tried resizing UI, testing an earlier version of InDesign (hence 2023), making sure my computer was set to best performance over battery saver, etc. Inevitably when I scroll around, lines of text will jump around or break. I'm operating a brand new windows 11 computer with 16gb of RAM, and this is a two page InDesign document with one image, so...

6. Pinch gesture in macbook changes size of selected image instead of zoom

   While working on a macbook air m3, you can use the pinch gesture to zoom in and out of the page, put when you select and image in a box (orange outline) and then use the pinch gesture while your cursor is hovering over any part of the image, even parts that are out of the frame/box, it changes/transforms the size/dimensions of the image instead of zooming. While the image is still selected and you move you cursor away from the image the zoom then works.

   The attached video shows how using the the pinch gesture zooms in and out until I select the image in the box, and then it scales it instead but once the cursor is no longer over the image, goes back to zooming.

9. Color Profile Warnings when copying Objects and Text within the same Document

   Mismatching color profile warnings are very helpful when copying objects between documents with different profiles, which is why this is an always-on option for me.

   However, for some time now, such warnings seem to pop up randomly when I copy text between documents with the same profile settings, and sometimes even when copying text from one text box to another within the same document.

   My understanding is that this is a bug, as live text in an INDD cannot have different profiles. Is there a way to avoid these warnings and still get them when they are necessary (copying between separate documents)?

12. Window jumps to maximum size in 19.2

    Since version 19.2, InDesign's window behavior has been weird and wrong. With each mouse click it jumps to the maximum window size. If I resize the window, the next mouse click will maximize it again. Very annoying. This is only in 19.2. I have a Mac Studio M1 and a 49-inch Dell U4919DW monitor (size 5120 x 1440 pixels), so I don't want to work at the full size of the screen.

13. InDesign flashes white every time I click on a page

    When using InDesign, it flashes white every time I click on it. If I click and hold, the screen become completely white. This is very annoying, almost impossible to work. I cannot highlight anything or draw a marque without getting the white flashing. Even when I'm just moving around a page, it flashes. This is migraine-inducing.

    I have InDesign 18.5.1 and there are no updated available, I just checked. This has really slowed down my workflow. I know you closed the previous listing for this, but it's not fixed.

    Help!

14. Installing InDesign 2024 still removes all preferences, shortcuts, and workspaces — even in v19.1

    Despite the previous thread about this marking the problem as being resolved, it is not — not even with the latest update 19.1 ... not for me at least. I've uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign 2024 multiple times at this point to no avail.

    This is a serious issue for professional users who have very specific settings that take time to create and are necessary for maintaining a consistent workflow between versions.

    Please resolve.

16. Red shapes appear on Indesign Pages

Zooming in or out or changing the view or Display Performance settings can get them to disappear, but they eventually return.

17. Hover Scrolling Disabling

    PLEASE introduce an option to disable hover scrolling on selection. If I have selected a text box and want to scroll down to align options in Properties, I always end up changing the leading, language, font, etc. I don't know anyone that would want to use hover scrolling to make those changes. Maybe click and drag like the other apps would work. Please look into this issues as it has been years and this has not been fixed.

18. macOS menu bar covers InDesign title bar (multi-screen setup)

    When running multiple screens connected to my MacBook Pro (14-inch, M1 Pro), InDesign's title bar will frequently get stuck under the macOS menu bar on the built-in screen, making it impossible to move the window either to another screen or within the built-in screen. I have to arrange the screens so the built-in screen is slightly above the others (even though it's below them physically) to get the title bar visible so I can move it.

    Interestingly, this phenomenon only occurs on the built-in screen. It's likely that InDesign doesn't know how to handle the macOS menu bar being taller (about 72 pixels instead of, what, 48?) and wrapping around the camera notch, so it doesn't respect the menu bar as a border.
