[ID-4257736]InDesign hangs when placing CJK tagged text with ruby
I'm currently using ID 2024, but I have tested other versions of ID, back to CS6, and they all have the same problem. I'm currently running Windows 11, but the problem also occurs in Windows 10.
Steps:

- Download TaggedText.zip and unzip it
- Open InDesign in the CJK version
- Create a new document with these grid attributes: Direction = Vertical; Font = Source Han Sans TW, Normal; Size = 16 pt; Vertical = Horizontal = 100%; Char Aki = 0 pt; Line Aki = 10 pt; Characters = 40;…

[ID-4222229]Exporting to ePub (reflowable) when document has endnotes containing hyperlinks causes InDesign to hang
Version of Adobe InDesign: 15.1.2 / macOS 10.15.6
Steps to reproduce the issues: When exporting a document with endnotes containing hyperlinks to ePub (reflowable), InDesign hangs and needs to be force quit. Have tested removing all hyperlinks to tests, and document exports correctly. Have tested putting hyperlinks outside of endnotes and document exports correctly. The bug is specific to hyperlinks which are part of the endnote text.
Expected result: Successful export with endnotes reciprocally linked to text, and hyperlinks in endnote text active to respective URLs.
Actual result: InDesign hangs and needs to be force quit.

InDesign freezes while working with "Scale Tool"
When using the "Scale Tool", every 4 or 5 times or so the app freezes at the dialog box and there's no way to exit. You have to force quit the app and hope that your work is autosaved. Unacceptable and only started happening recently.

On waking Mac from sleep, open documents are grayed out on external monitor.
If I put my MacBook Pro to sleep with work on an external monitor, when I turn it on at another place with an external monitor, all open documents are grayed out and do not display any object. The objects are selectable, but I can't see what's in them. Switching display modes, minimizing or dragging between displays doesn't help either.

Anchored text box in a table cell with text threads crashes when cutting
As the title says. It sounds similar to past bugs.
First, create a text box and add a table.
Create a separate, new text box and add a single character in it.
Anchor the text box to any cell in the table.
Enable "Show Text Threads" from the View > Extras menu.
Selecting and attempting to cut the table will lead to a long hang and crash.This is on the latest version of InDesign at the moment, 17.0. I am on Windows 10 20H2 19042.1288. I can verify this occurring on two separate systems.

Crash when "fitting frame to content" on an inline-anchored textframe (inline or above line)
Hi,
Last week i noticed that InDesign crashes when I fit the textframe to its contents, when that textframe is anchored as "text" inside another textframe (anchor-option: incline or above line) when it is not separated by paragraph breaks or whitespaces.I have a file that has one textframe for the main column. In it I placed several smaller textframes with more than one column as textelements.
I didn't separate them by a space or linebreak. When fitting one of the smaller frames to its content by double clicking the lower reference point in the middle to get rid of…5 votesThank you for reporting this issue.

Extendscript hangs CC2019 (14.0.2) on macOS
Code below works fine on Windows and CC 2018 on Mac. But CC 2019 Mac it hangs the app once clicking the OK button in window 2. I've tried three different Macs including Mojave and High Sierra. All the same result. Pretty sure it's not just me. This bug has broken a number of my scripts that present a secondary window for saving settings.
var w1 = new Window("dialog", "Window 1");
var btnOpenWindow2 = w1.add("button", undefined, "Open Window 2");
var btnOk1 = w1.add("button", undefined, "OK");
btnOpenWindow2.onClick = function () {
openWindow2();
};
btnOk1 = function () {
w1.close();
};
w1.show();…

Crash when placing DOCX with paragraphStyles
Version: InDesign 14.0.1, macOS 10.14.3
Steps:
1. Open attached InDesign document (please rename .jpg in .indd, there was a bug while uploading the file)
2. Place "ThisDocumentHasParagraphStyles.docx" in the document
3. InDesign crashes :-(It seems it has something to do with the ParagraphStyles that are in the Word document. If I try to place the DOCX file named "ThisDocumentDOESNTHaveParagraphStyles.docx", then InDesign doesn't crash.
Attached is a screen video capture of the process (rename .jpg in .mp4 please)
Please help!
