  2. Autosize text boxes not refreshing

    InDesign 17.3
    Autosize textbox with anchored autosize text boxes, if the anchored textbox resizes to match the text, often, the parent autosize text box does not change to accommodate it. The child text box increases size and overlaps the text boxes or other anchored items around it. A provisional fix is to manually resize the parent textbox which causes a refresh. The refresh should be automatic.

  3. Can't create snap to baseline style

    I just paid for and downloaded ID 17.2.1 after using cs6 and need to meet a deadline for a four page newsletter. I can't seem to find any buttons whatsoever that allow me to create a body style with the text snapping to the baseline. My text is all over the shop. Did I just do a faulty download, or am I missing something? Where is the option for baseline snapping or not snapping?

  6. locked layers are invisible

    I have an issue with locked layers: they are invisible in the layer-panel. I can only see them in the layout-view. I cannot edit, delete or unlock them. I can only make them invisible by disabling the "eye".
    This happend to a file that was packed about 2 years ago. Unfortunately, even the IDML-File can't be edited. What's wrong?
    File: https://design.sportunion.at/images/Vorlagen/Geschaeftsdrucksorten/Visitenkarte/20181010_SPORTUNION-Visitenkarte.zip

  8. Align to grid

    When you have a text box with multiple columns and paragraphs are set to align to grid + Align first line of text only, if text from one paragraph flows to the next column, that 'first' line of text will NOT align to the grid as it is not the first line in the paragraph. I can't think of any situation where this is an optimal outcome.

  9. Margins cannot be adjusted via the Document setup window

    Version: 16.3.2
    When trying to change the margins via the Document setup (alt+command+p) dialogue, nothing happens; the margins don't change. The only way is to go through Layout > Margins and columns...

  13. Scaling of objects in finest steps

    I'm using ID Version 16.2.1 x64. After the upgrade I found that an essential feature is suddenly missing: when I try to fit in pictures in existing frames for example I could formerly scale the picture in very fine steps with the help of the little "arrows" left from the field with the displayed value.
    These "arrows" are no longer there - but only in the field defining, scaling or rotating objects.
    In the other fields defining paragraphs, font size and everything else the "arrows" are still there as shown in the PDF I'll be sending to you.
    Can you…

  14. Some objects won't resize randomly

    I'm fining with this latest version that some objects, particularly text will only resize to a certain size. See my screenshot - this is a 1x3 meter banner and I cannot size the text any bigger than what you see on the screenshot it just snaps back. I know for a fact the text is nowhere near Indesign's maximum size as it's 150pt. I can manually change the size of the text to 500pt plus but this throws the layout off. I'm absolutely sick and tired of these constant bugs in this programme.

  18. Indesign 16. Problema con sangrías de texto y objetos con contorneo

    Cuando una caja de texto o imagen con contorneo mueve texto sangríado (en el ejemplo, sangría en la primera línea) la sangría de la primera línea desaparece.
    Ver en la muestra los ejemplos correctos dentro del circulo superior y los 2 inferiores en los que la sangría no se muestra correctamente debido a la caja de imagen con contorneo que se ve a la izquierda.

  19. Extend conditional text

    Conditional text is a nice feature, but only applies to text parts or paragraph. It can be used to show/hide images and tables in flow text, but it also be nice to hide single rows in a table being marked as conditional.
