Display settings affect Epub output
I just spent a couple of hours trying to figure out why one of my images (placed Illustrator file) was pixelating in EPub output. The same image is placed in 6 places, and only in three of those instances was the output incorrect. Image is identically placed in all six instances (size and scaling), the link is valid (not missing), and all export settings were correct. As a last resort troubleshooting this, I realized that in the three locations that were pixelated, the display setting for those three was set to Typical rather than High Quality. I set them to…

False icon
Indesign Version 17.2.1
If I save my file as an Indesign file (INDD), the icon on my desktop shows Photoshop and not Indesign. As a result I can't open the file via double-click because then Photoshop opens and says "Der Vorgang konnte nicht ausgeführt werden, weil dieses Dokument nicht vom richtigen Typ ist". So I have to open it via right click, open with Indesign. That's a little bit annoying.1 vote -
Language.
My InDesign is in Hungarian.
I would like to have it in English.
I have uninstalled.
I have changed language preferences.
I have installed.
It remained in Hungarian.
I have done this 3 times today. It was very boring. This is not a service.
Your chat support told me this is because I use my Windows in Hungarian.
This is ridiculous. This is a bug. You must fix it.
If I change the app to English it should be English for good no matter what my Windows is using.
E.g. Photoshop is in English!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 vote -

My InDesign is in Hungarian.
I would like to change it to English.
Even though I have uninstalled, changed the language preferences and installed it again, it remained in Hungarian.
I have tried 3 times. It was very boring.
Your help support said it is because I use my Windows in Hungarian.
This is not true, because Photoshop is in English for instance.
Change this!
If I set InDesign to English, it should be in English, no matter what language Windows is using,1 vote -
Rulers
In the latest version it is much harder to place a guide on the exact spot because the guide in the ruler itself has become much thicker/dotted when before it was just a thin line and was more accurately placed on the needed measurement.

Layout options for multiple records from data merge
I have recently discovered Data Merge and it works great for most things. However I need to output multiple records per page set out head-to-head. This is so the output can be printed and folder in half with the text on both side the right way up. More detailed controls would be big help.

overprint
Overprint in my currently installed versions of INDD (17.2.1) and AI (262.1) is unpredictable. I have ust received feedback from a client, that the date on a recently printed flyer is illegible. It is overprinting on a dark background, but in INDD the element is not set to overprinting. A screen PDF from the same INDD-file is completely normal. I've had this happeining in a couple of INDD-documents since the last update. I have had the same issue with an AI document this week as well.

overprint is unpredictable in INDD and AI
In the latest versions of INDD (17.2.1) and AI (26.2.1) i find that the overprint settings have become unpredictable. I have just received feedback from a client, that the date on a flyer i designed for him is illegible. In the attached print-file the date actually is overprinting. In INDD though the element is not set to overprinting. I have had the same issue with another document this week in AI.

Control Panel missing fields for Type
Updated to InDesign 17.2 and noticed that some of the fields to the right in the Control Panel are missing for type. Using 27-inch monitor in full screen mode. If take out of full screen mode and move my window way over to the left off screen, and pull the Control panel out, then I see the fields. They used to fit.

Bug: overwriting embedded objects with not embedded ones keeps them imbedded
Indesign CC 2022, v17.
Steps to reproduce :
1. open two documents which have the same linked file (image) embedded
2. edit the image outside of ID.
3. relink the file in one of two documents, so it becomes unembedded
4. copy the unembedded file to the other document, overwriting the same, but still embedded object/image.Exprect result: the object in the target document should not be embedded anymore and it should be up-to-date.
What happens: depending on how the files is placed (inside a table cell or not) ID will only mark it as "it has been changed" by…

Stripped down workspace when opening document
- Using 17.1 x64 on a Windows 10 machine
- When InDesign is closed, if I double click on a file to open it, the program opens with a minimal workspace; no panels, no toolbar at the top of the screen, nothing. If I open the program first, and then open a file (either through the file menu, or by doubleclicking on the icon in File Explorer, the program opens with my correct workspace.
- Opening the program, no matter how I access it, should open with my selected workspace.
- It opens without any panels, toolbars or the option to change to a…

popups
ISSUE: More than once, when I open InDesign, or access it for the first time that day, it'll come up with a popup spread across my workspace, inviting my feedback about something or alerting me to something. AND it will NOT go away.
Previous time it was alerting me to the coming end of support for Type 1 fonts. Today (03/03/22) it's asking me to share feedback on Copy Editor (Beta) (screenshot attached).
At this moment I need to work on my document, and I am not using Copy Editor, nor have I. But the popup can't be Escaped out…
