InDesign steals focus in Windows 10 - again (2022)
If you switch to another application, while InDesign is launching, InDesign will steal the focus back, even repeatedly if you are quick enough to switch to the other application more than once, and/or have a slow computer (e.g. battery saver mode while opening a large document may exaggerate the problem).
I'm fairly certain that this irritating behaviour was gone from late 2017, since the earlier bug report (https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/31913773-indesign-steals-focus-in-windows-10) was closed after lack of activity (3 years old) in 2021, and the old thread on the forum https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/how-to-prevent-adobe-software-stealing-focus-in-windows-10-locked/td-p/7773884/page/5 was active until late 2017.

InDesign doesn't import files
Hi !
So my issue is that InDesign doesn't allow me to import files, whether they are .jpg, .png or .eps, or else. I need to use a logo that I have in .png, but InDesign doesn't allow me to select my file to import.1 vote -
Alignment of text box ignores anchored objects
When I have an anchored object (lets say an image) hanging at the bottom of the text box, aligning the text to the bottom of the text box will align the text only, and cuts off the image at the bottom.
I imagine this also happens to images at the top of the text box, when aligning to the top.
I think that by design, anchired objects should be calculated as part of the text box's content, and should be aligned to the bottom, as text would.
If not, it should at least be an option to choose from.Thank…

resize document view
I am using Indesign 17.2. When I try to resize the art board by clicking on the bottom right corner, the whole thing automatically becomes larger than my screen so that I have no way to adjust it from there.
The uploaded image shows the bottom of my screen without any way to access the bottom of the document.

epub and mp3
To adobe,
I am an InDesign user, to create the e-book for the publish.Today, I face a serious problem and hope to find out a solution.
It is the problem, I insert mp3, each page around 4, the similar page around 30-40 page.
The mp3 maybe not the same on each page, it’s may different, test in the InDesign app, and all is fine.
If exported to PDF, also it is fine and could sound normally.
However, if exported to EPUB, the first 16 of the mp3 file, also means the first 4 pages can work, the rest of…

New Document dialogue allowing impossible column gutter
When creating a new document in the New Document dialogue, InDesign (17.4) is allowing a impossible column gutters (Page Size: 8.5"x11", Columns: 1, Column Gutter: 12"). The Margins and Columns dialogue will prevent this from happening, the New Document dialogue will not. This causes issues when attempting to change files later using the Document Setup dialogue, even after the Column Gutter is adjusted in the Margins and Columns dialogue.

CC Library Issues
2 CC Libraries bugs since the new update:
- "Search current library" not working, you aren't able to type anything in
- When opening the CC libraries window, if you have multiple monitors the window will appear blank, but the thumbnails of all your items in the library will be on the other monitor. Adobe Illustrator does the same. The only fix I've found so far is snapping the window to the other monitor.1 vote -

High CPU use with version 17.1
This has already been posted for 17.0 by another user. I installed 17.1 yesterday, because I needed to open a specific file and compared to the 14.0.3 which I use all the time, the 17.1 uses 1/4 of CPU power after start while no document is opened and it actually does nothing. This remains for several minutes, then goes down to 0. The attached picture shows that both versions are running (no files open).

Relinking incorrect files
Today's thing that is usefully broken on this terrible app is I can select a link from the links pallet, right click to relink it and Indesign will handily decide to relink a different linked file on the page forcing me to repeat the process. This is happening every now and again and not every time I relink files.

Actual Size is not Actual Size
I was trying to view art at "Actual Size" under "View" and using the shortcut. The art is 9" and it is showing 11.0625" instead in InDesign 2022 (v17.2). I would really appreciate this being fixed as soon as possible. Or a solution as to why this is happening to be forthcoming. Thanks!

Rulers exceeding text boundaries, only paragraph shading or offsets seem to be able to limit them
The issue is described in this thread (sample .INDD file link included in the thread to reproduce the issue):
The excess rulers that go beyond the text boundary can only be removed (or masked, not sure which is actually happening) with paragraph shading.
As a rule, rulers should not go beyond the text boundary, and they should adapt to the text boundary (if font size have been changed, or if other changes have been made that affect the layout).
But the green arrows show that in some cases the boundary is correct.
It shouldn't be necessary to add both…
