1. Request: import of conditions of conditional text when placing an INDD

   When placing an INDD in another document, layers of the placed INDD are imported, so content in the placed INDD can be hidden or unhidden. The same doesn't work with conditional text, but the principle is the same. Hide/unhide text, for instance in a table, by switching conditions. Handling this by using layers is possible, but way more effortive.

2. InDesign 19.4 for MacOS ignores PluginConfig.txt

   InDesign 19.4 on MacOS ignores PluginConfig.txt and doesn't load the desired plug-ins on startup.

   Steps to reproduce:

   1. Place a plugin somewhere outside the InDesign app folder.
   2. Create a PluginConfig.txt that points to this plugin.
   3. Place the PluginConfig.txt either in the InDesign app folder or the Preferences folder.
   4. Start InDesign.
   5. The plugin won't be loaded.

   I have checked this on multiple machines and also have confirmation from someone also on the user forums:

   https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/indesign-ignores-pluginconfig-txt/m-p/14578540

   The Windows version seems to work correctly.

   Need More Info  ·  AdminSanyam Talwar (Senior Lead Software Engineer, Adobe InDesign) responded

   Please share the “PluginConfig.txt” for review at santalwa@adobe.com

   Try the below workaround and let me know if it works for you -

   1. Quit InDesign.
   2. In macOS, go to <Install Dir>\Resources\Cookies\ENABLE_POSIX_PATH.
   3. Rename ENABLE_POSIX_PATH.
   4. Launch InDesign.

3. Photoshop Layers Not Displaying or Exporting Correctly from InDesign 2024

   Using InDesign 19.3 and placing (via link) a layered PSD into layout, preferred layer visibility (as spec'd in import options) is failing.

   Layer is part of a Group in Photoshop; part of the group is visible, part isn't (when viewed in InDesign).

   It isn't just a preview issue, because if I export a PDF from ID, the layers aren't visible in the PDF either.

   For now, my workaround is to use an earlier (2023) version of InDesign. The layers in my linked PSD preview and export correctly using the earlier version.

   I've tried recreating the missing elements (rules) in Photoshop (2024) but the problem persists.

   Any insights would be much appreciated.

4. typografische Anführungszeichen-Funktion funktioniert bei einer Datei plötzlich nicht mehr

   Problem: Plötzlicher Ausfall der korrekten typografischen Anführungszeichen

   Guten Tag,
   ich arbeite mit dem aktuellen InDesign unter Ventura.
   Bei einer Datei, an der ich seit Tagen arbeite, funktioniert plötzlich die voreingestellte Funktion der automatisch korrigierten typografischen Anführungszeichen. Es werden nur noch US-Zoll-Zeichen erstellt.
   Programm-Neustart sowie Rechner-Neustart helfen nicht.
   Auch speichern als idml und Wiederherstellung daraus brachte keinen Erfolg.
   Bei anderen, sehr ähnlichen erstellten Dateien sowie bei neuen Dokumenten funktioniert es einwandfrei.
   Schließlich habe ich einen Work-Around verwendet: Im Miniatur-Modus das gesamte Dokument in eine jüngere Datei kopiert: Alles geht wieder.
   Meine Frage: Was hätte ich noch (Einfacheres?) tun können? In welcher Datei wird denn das gespeichert? Die ID-Preferences wollte ich nicht löschen; man sieht ja auch, dass es offensichtlich ein Fehler in der einen Datei war/ist. Gibt es so etwas wie einen Datei-„Reinigungs“-Vorgang?

5. Publish Online does not zoom in/out or change orientation properly on mobile

   I am using InDesign 19.3, and have been using Publish Online to create dozens of magazines in digital format. I have just realized, however, that when viewing them on phones (either Apple or Android), the orientation switches are klunky and zooming in/out does not work very well. We do have the code embedded in a simple frame so that it can be branded with our logo. That should not make a difference, however. This problem seems to go far back in the forums and there have been no improvements or updates over time. Is there anything in the pipeline to offer hope or do we have to come up with another way to create our digital magazines? Here is an example: https://pub.hozinc.com/bjkcup24/

6. Can't add paragraph- or charactar styles to CC library

   Whenever i add a pargraph- or character styles to a CC library it simply wont add it. It says that the character - or paragraph style is not supported in Indesign. This happens with new and old libraries, character- and paragraph styles just dissapeared in older libraries. This makes the libraries unworkable.

   Adobe indesign 18.5

   To reproduce:
   - add a character - or paragraph style to the library
   - watch it disappear from the library

   expected result:
   - the character- or paragraph is added to the library, so it can happily be used for the book and all it's chapters we are currently making

   actual result:
   - we can't use shared character - and paragraph styles from the library

8. Some pages/spreads are turning black/gray and page numbers are registering as PB

   When scrolling through a document, the backgrounds on some pages turn black/gray, and the page numbers on those pages register as "PB" instead of the correct page number.

   Restarting InDesign did not solve the problem, and opening the file in regular InDesign also did not correct the problem. I could only recover the file by saving it as a .idml and reopening it.

9. InDesign Windows all over the shop

   I am currently using three screens for my work. Whenever I select a window from the menu, the flyouts appear in a hidden or hard-to-see location on any of my screens, usually in the bottom left corner. As a result, I can only see the header of the flyout, which becomes problematic when it is hidden behind other flyouts.

   In my opinion, when a window/flyout is selected from the menu, it should appear in the centre of the active screen and on top for easy visibility.

10. Why can't the "cell style" control the height of the line in the table?

    Why can't the "cell style" control the height of the line in the table?
    If the "cell style" can control the height of the line, it will definitely save a lot of unnecessary operations. I wonder why it should be set manually?

11. Can the panel only push to the right? This will exceed the screen on the right.

    Can the panel only push to the right? But when the panel is on the right, I hope to double -click the panel, and it will push left to the left, otherwise it will be beyond the right screen on the right.

    Perhaps, some people say that you can be close to the right edge, and naturally push away to the left.
    I know this, but this is not what I need.
    I need more flexible settings.

12. Please fix tool panels going off screen

    Tool panels are an absolute nightmare in Indesign. The detection of, in which direction the panel should open is buggy. I have the Application Frame on my main screen and the tool panels all on my second screen. The setting panels never pop up into a direction where it's handy. They just go outside of the screen.

    Also, when having some tabs open and some collapsed, it's an absolute nightmare to open a different one. InDesign does not care about how big your screen is. It just makes the panel bigger and bigger and go out of your screen making it impossible to access the other ones, or even the one you wanted to open. You end up opening and closing or resizing your tool tabs over and over and over again. Have you never heard of scrolling?

13. Adding words to Thai User Dictionary does not add whole word recognition

    In Thai, you can add a word with or without hyphenation to the Thai language User Dictionary and that word does not become recognized as a whole word. If you double click on the word, it will still only highlight parts of the word that it recognizes as forming a word (leaving the rest of the added word not selected).

    This leads to hyphenation problems because if InDesign still sees the word in three parts then it will break the word into those parts without recognizing the need to hyphenate the word.

    So there needs to be a way for us to add whole word recognition to the Thai language processing.

16. Scroll bars and status bar disappear in InCopy

    InCopy scrollbars and status bar (page navigation) disappear and there doesn't seem to be an identifiable way of turning these back on. Working on a corporate device so cannot test the 'Run as administrator' fix that is suggested on another forum online.

    Scrollbars and status bars are available on start up but disappear if you use the zoom tools, the device sleeps, or if you are active in another window (e.g. a browser) for some time (not sure precisely how long). Closing and reopening the program fixes the issue, but it is irritating to have to check in all stories, close, reopen and restart the workflow just to be able to navigate the document. Switching between layout and galley/story view does not affect the issue. Windows, InCopy v19.3

17. Comment Feature is not working properly

    Working with InDesign comments is extremely unsatisfying. The interactions are super slow (this might be because of my file, but still. comments should be displayed quickly as they are not big in file size). The pins are fixed, while text that is about to be changed will change position.

    Also, not all comments are displayed or load really late. It's really confusing to figure out where they are and it's not possible to click a pin on the pages to view them.

    The feature is really important. InDesign is a proper software with an outdated UI.

18. Thai Launguage and Optical margins

    With Thai language and world-ready paragraph composer on InDesign 19.3, by default optical margins are enabled. but this does not produce desirable adjustments. It does hang the left margin outside just a little but it does not recalculate the line for Left Justification. So the right side become shorter by the same amount as it moved the line to the left.

19. Never break a word with Thai hyphenation dictionary

    In English it is possible to add a hyphenation word to the user dictionary and if you want the word never to be hyphenated, type a tilde before its first letter. This will force the word to never break.

    However with Thai you can add the word with the tilde but InDesign will not respect that word. The word will still be broken.
