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?

The new version of INDesign just doesn't work.
Installed.
Now uninstalling.
It continually keeps being unresponsive.
Another error now on Cloud, suggesting relancing it as it's taking .longer than normal.Poor from Adobe to launch yet another bug fix that's even more buggy

Can no longer change fonts in the glyph table
Can no longer change fonts within the glyph table.
It used to be possible to have a character selected and change fonts or typefaces in the glyph table to discover where that character exists in another font. Now it only reverts to whatever paragraph or character style is already applied and doesn't allow the font to be changed.

Find/change 15.1.3, Windows 10
Find/change does not work when a character style (e.g. italic) is selected.
Have closed program and started it again, and it works for words selected, but could not get it to find this question mark character ?, nor would it change format of a word to italics when this was selected under the Find Format and/or Change Format boxes. Following this I also found it would not find a selected word with no formatting changes requested.1 vote -
object style override plus-sign when multiple elements selected
Object style made. Works fine.
Multiple items on page need same style. When applied to ONE item, styles menu looks "normal." When applied to multiple items, with items selected, the styles menu shows plus-sign after style name.
All of "clear overrides" options tried. Does not fix. Cannot verify that use of style is correct if styles panel gives false feedback.
In the past, earlier versions, I don't remember ever seeing this apparent conflict.

2022 InDesign bugs
when using ID 2021 and before, When I sized a graphic, say, from 100 to 50%, the info box would say the graphic is now 50%. In ID 2022, when I reduce a graphic, the box says it is 100%. I am not liking this.

CEPHtmlEngine Helper
macOS Catalina 10.15.5. and InDesign. 15.1.1.
Massive problem with CEPHtmlEngine Helper. After a while, my MacBook Pro fan is running high and in the activity window, CEPHtmlEngine Helper is running between 90 and 100%. It is no fun to work with a system that runs crazy.

Disable automatic sect-tags on PDF export
When exporting a tagged PDF, InDesign automatically creates Sect-Tags for each story. I would like to be able to disable this feature on export for the following reasons:
- As far as I know, they are of limited value for screen reader users. The content is usually already well structured by means of an appropriate heading structure.
- It is very difficult to integrate figures into a story in a semantically correct/meaningful way. When anchoring them in the text, they will be nested in p-tags, which is according to PDF/UA not correct semantically. Hence, I avoid creating stories and use the article…

Display bug – garbled font randomly show up
Font display bug – garbled font weirdness
InDesign 16.4 on macOS Big Sur 11.5.1
When flipping through pages I get this strange font display issue. See screenshots.
It happens randomly. Not on every page but at least once every 10 pages.I can simply turn preview on and off or go to the next page and back to make the page behove normally again but this should not be necessary.
This happens with all fonts.
This happens every day.
This happens on my colleagues computers as well. They are running various versions of indesign of various version of MacOS.

Damaged File message
I'm getting the same error message "file is damaged when trying to create new ICML files. There seems to be a bug in the latest update. InDesign saves a recovered file and that seems to fix the problem. BUT the file is not damaged, it seems to be a bug in the latest update. Can you guys take a look.
Thanks!!

Notes anchor marks are rendered incorrectly
When I place a note, it affects the text box as it's rendered as a normal character.
That is - it affects the leading, the spacing, the alignment, etc.For instance, if I have a top-aligned text box with a paragraph with letter size 9pt, and I place a note somewhere in the paragraph - the entire paragraph will shift downward - as the alignment takes the top of the note anchor as the topmost "pixel" in the text box.
There is no way this is desirable. Who would want notes to affect their document layout? So I have to…
