'see' reference in index
InDesign CC, latest version
Strange bug (or at least unwanted behavior) I encountered today in Indesign:
For a new book project, I used an earlier book as a template (a lot of the settings and styles should be the same), replacing all the text and images. The index in the earlier book contained 'see'-references. For the new book I generated a new index ('replace old index' checked), and the 'see'-references (just these) from the old book also showed up!
I would expect checking the 'replace old index' box would prevent this.
Not a big deal (the faulty entries were easy…1 vote -

Cannot see open file windows (v 16.3.2)
I upgraded to InDesign v 16.3.2 this morning and now I am not able to use it, as file windows are not visible. The Windows menu lists the files that are open, but they cannot be seen.
Update: discovered that files can be seen if Application Frame is switched off under the Windows menu, but nothing can be seen if it's switched on again.

CC Library panel freezes and is unusable until InDesign is re-launched
In the last update or perhaps the one prior, the CC Library panel freezes and is unusable. You can't select anything, search for anything, or change libraries.
Closing the panel and opening it again has no affect.
The only workaround is to quit and re-launch InDesign. The panel will then work for a time but will freeze again at some point.
This horrendous bug is in addition to a new annoying one where you can't drag and drop a graphic from the document INTO the CC Library panel to add it. You have to select the graphic, then click the…

Blank EPUB Interactivity Panel in InDesign 16.3.2 on MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) running OS 10.15.7 Catalina.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign. I've installed it again deleting all old prefs. I've restarted reinstalled software and dumped prefs on start up holding down Shift/Ctrl/ALT/Cmd keys, and 'Yes' clicked when asked if I want to delete preferences file. I am at my wits end with this issue.

libraries
******* Adobe, I'm still getting this CC libraries pane in InDesign being super zoomed-in... it comes and goes but I always have to restart InDesign to correct it... only to have it return to plague me constantly.
I've spent over 2 hours with Adobe Support with no solution, and I've uninstalled/reinstalled multiple versions (including the latest) many times.
Nothing works!
See attached image to view the problem.
This has been like this since late 2020! ADOBE CAN YOU PLEASE FIX YOUR SOFTWARE?!?!?!?!?

Share for review comments in master page
Currently working on a 36 page magazine and noticed that some 'Share for review' comments end up on the Master Page in InDesign. When I view the comments online, I see them grouped on the right spread, but if I click the comment to see where it actually is pinned, nothing shows on the pages. Guess this is a bug?

After changing workspace the extension panels become huge
After changing workspace the extensions panels contents become huge. Clicking on anything in the panel does not work. Turning the panel off and on, changing workspace several times does not help. Only restarting the application makes the panel the standard size (zoom). Today I updated the application to the latest version, but the previous version also had the problem.
This is terribly annoying because I have to turn indesign off and on dozens of times during the day.

BUG WITH FOOTNOTES
I though that the new version of Indesign will have this fix but, no. See my screenshot, the text is overlapping my footnote. This comes randomly in my 12 books. To get ride of this, I have to enlarge my textbox and after, reduce it like it was normally. It's very frustrating because when I get the Okay of my client and then made the final PDF, it can happening. So, I have to check all my PDFs very carefully to see if nothing wrong.

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.

BUG - Autonumbering turns off when hiding a layer - BUG
Steps to reproduce:
- Create 2 threaded text frames on a page.
- Fill them with text (Lorem ipsum)
- Autonumber the paragraphs with Autonumbering feature in InDesign - regular 1, 2, 3-list will do.
- Create a new layer
- Move the first frame in the text flow to that layer
- Turn off visibility of that layer....
The autonumbering is gone from any autonumbered list!!!
