Spell Check Defaulting to Check Document. Needs to Default to Current Story
Spell Check in Indesign is defaulting to checking the entire document. I need it to check the story. Or, at the very least, allow me the option of telling it to default to checking the current story.

Pages Panel shows scroll bar starting at wrong page
This only happens on startup of InDesign.
I open a document that has many pages from 2 -120.
The Pages panel has the scroll bars positioned at the top, next to pages 26-27.
If the scroll bars are at the top of the document, then pages 2-3 should be showing.

InDesign to InCopy Layout Malfunction
My company's graphics department develops scientific posters, and as a writer, I often have to make small adjustments to the text and am only given access to edit through InCopy (using version 14.0.2). This problem does not happen with every poster, but I often find that the whole frame of the poster is shifted when I open the assignments file in InCopy (please see example photos). I'm able to make my edits, but I can't export to a PDF without having the bleed, header, etc. shifted as I see it in InCopy. Our graphics department thinks this is a bug…

Add attributes of currently selected text or object to the "Find/Replace" dialog
Here's an idea. It would be cool if the attributes of whatever you currently have selected, be it text or an object, could be quickly added to the Find/Replace dialog as your "search" terms. That way you don't have to go through and find all the attributes you want to search for, you could just select something that already has those attributes applied and then search. For instance, if you selected text that was bold italic, red, and 12 pt of a certain font and paragraph style, then those attributes could be loaded in the search box instead of having…

Find/Change bug in Indesign 13.1.1
Text Find/Change seems to have a bug: let's suppose we have 2 paragraph styles, for example a title style and a body text style. In the document I received from our partner sometimes the body paragraphs wear the title style and they were manually overridden to look like the body style. To fix this error I tried to search for texts that has the title style but the font used is that of the body style. Indesign Finds something at the beginning of the body paragraph (a thin cursor-like thing can be seen there: it is the selected something) that…

table formatting
Menu for formatting Table 'alternate row' shading, doesn't make sense — it gives options for 'Every other row' and 'Every second row'. To me those are redundant.

DataMerge facing pages odd disposition
Indesign 2019 14.0.2 x64 on Windows 10
I have created a data merge document that uses a facing pages master. My document before DataMerge only has one page. When the document is created only right pages are created, but the spread come back to facing pages if I add a second layout or if I toggle "allow selected spreads to shuffle" off and on again.
If my model has two pages, the document after DataMerge creates a list single right and left pages alternated untill you change the layout or toggle shuffle.
I think that it should be a spread…2 votes -
Ctrl + Tab Keyboard Shortcut Bug
I tried to assign "Ctrl"+"Tab" to "Window Next" (to get the same shortcut as OS-default) but Indesign seems not to do anything when hitting this shortcut. When assigning other shortcuts to the same action it works.

Indesign CC 2015
When editiing text and applying styles using the eyedropper tools some users in my production team are using the colour theme tool by accident.
This is then applying the rich black colour swatch to pages that should only be using true black. Can you change the default colour to true black or allow the default colour to be changed.
Alternatively could you add a feature to customise the toolbar so you can remove/add tools that you want.
Thanks

Variable chapter number
The variable 'chapter number' gives a problem, wherever it is used it is represented as '1'.
Because chapter numbers and paragraph numbers are not included in the Continuous header, it is useful if it can be displayed separately.
Is it possible to include this numbering in the variable in the future (as an option)?2 votes -
