1. find/change text missing search: selection

   after making a selection, the Find/Change text dialog sometimes does not offer Selection in the Search dropdown. It will be present under GREP and Object, but not Text and Glyph. Closing/reopening Find/Change does not fix it. Restarting InDesign usually fixes it...until it goes missing again.

2. When switching from normal to preview, the type on a book page reflows and some type disappears.

   InDesign 2020: During work I often switch between normal and preview. Working on a long book, type has been disappearing on the Preview Page when I switch to that view from "normal". I quit InDesign, re-start, and things go ok for a while.

3. Problem with the display of the navigation bar on an Android smartphone and tablet of a document published by publish online

   Hi all,

   I have a strange situation with a document that I created in InDesign and then published online using "Publish Online". From there I got a link to share.

   On the desk, everything is fine. But the problem is with Android devices where the options tab with next page, previous page, download button and others disappears after a few seconds and there is no way to get it back.

   It is not possible to navigate between the pages of the document.

   This is the bar with the options I am talking about in the attachment.

   Is there something that I did wrong or how to fix it?

   I am using version 16.1 x64 of indesign

   thank you,

6. shift to constrain and option-drag to copy only working intermittently now

   1. InDesign 16.1
   2. In a document, select an object. Then hold shift and scale the object. Or hold option and drag to copy the object.
   3. When holding shift, I expect constrained proportions. When holding Option, I expect a copy.
   4. Both key modifiers work perfectly in Illustrator, so it's not my keyboard nor my Mac. What I get when holding shift is the same as not holding shift - unconstrained proportions. What I get when holding option is the same as with not holding option - the object is just moved, not copied.
   5. I can't show a test because I can't show you when the shift or option key is pressed.

   I should clarify the intermittent part of my title. It seems that if I keep at it long enough, keep option-dragging, or shift-scaling, at some point InDesign wakes up and the key combination kicks in. But that's crazy. This is still a productivity killer. Please fix!

7. Incorrect replacement of special characters in hyperlinks while exporting to interactive PDF

   In InDesign, the special characters in hyperlinks are converted while exporting as interactive PDF differently depending on the platform (Windows or Mac) and the type of hyperlink and are thus made unusable.

   If the hyperlink replaces a text without further intervention in the document, special Characters are sometimes incorrectly replaced.

   The replacement is different depending on how the hyperlink is used in the document:
   - text that is a hyperlink
   - Assigned hyperlink to a text
   - button

   In addition, Mac and Windows export result in further differences.

   So far I only have tested the letters äüö, but cannot rule out the possibility that other special characters will be converted incorrectly.

   So it doesn't make sense.
   Please convert this different handling to a functioning one in all environments.

   See attached PDF for the Links made on Mac.
   Unfortunately i can't upload the Indesign file for you to test this issue.

8. Duplicating Page with Alt + Drag Not Working Anymore

   I cant duplicate pages anymore using alt + dragging.

   Alt dragging the page to the side still works (so that the newly duplicated page appears at the end).
   But when I try to duplicate it to a specific location it just moves the page and does not duplicate it.

   This is really annoying....

12. tables jumping to next page

    Sometimes tables that fit on one page jumps to the next page causing reflow. It does this randomly and can't figure out why. This has to be caused by bug in indesign. I really wish Adobe would focus more on fixing the many bugs in its programs rather than adding new features.

13. Layout adjust badly deforms vector graphics

    Vector images pasted from Illustrator (without any raster effect added) become badly deformed when using Layout Adjust. Parts of the image may become bloated, extended, compressed, text is deformed, rectangles become squares; circles, ovals, parts shift, etc. In short, a total mess

14. Undo reverts to last save

    I'm using InDesign 2021 version 16.1, macOS version. Recently (maybe since the last update) it lost the regular undo ability. Instead of undoing by steps, it undoes all steps since the last save.

    It is similar to the issue reported with InDesign 2020 (https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/38991835-undo-not-working-properly-in-indesign-2020), but the bug persists in the current version even though it is reported as 'Fixed' in that thread.

    This happens every time when using Undo (Command-Z). It reverts to the last saved state. In the case that a document has been saved multiple times, it appears each press of Undo goes back to the previous save. (So if you have saved a document 3 times, you have 3 undo states, even though there may be 15 or 40 or 100 changes.) This happens even with a blank, newly created document.

    I am also experiencing lots of crashes (seemingly random, even when not interacting with the app), which is also new. But this thread is about the undo bug.

15. Save/Save as corrupts file

    InDesign 2021, running on Mac OS 10.14.6, on a iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019)

    I recently "upgraded" my version of InDesign to the latest 2021 version. I thought, why not, new features, upgraded stability.

    Or so I thought....

    I started working on a document, a newsletter, that I retrieved from our archive as it is a quarterly magazine. I opened the file and proceeded to start working on it. Did a couple of pages and thought I'd better save it.

    Command+s, message pops up saying this file is damaged and/or corrupt, save it as something else. Which I did, and so it came up with another warning saying, "this file is damaged and will be recovered".

    Ok, so I saved a recovery file, tried to open that, then I got hit with a InDesign serious error warning and will be shut down.

    Tried again a few times and went through the same process. So then I thought it may be the preferences, So I launched the application holding down shift+option+command and it seemed to work. I managed to actually save a document without any corruption. Great!

    I thought I'd sorted it, now, tried to work on my document again and its doing the same thing.

    Got sick of my time being wasted.

    Uninstalled

    Re-installed the previous InDesign and it seems to be fine now.

    I installed the latest version as it boasted "upgraded stability" This is very much so, not the case.

16. Layer comps not working with Indesign on PC

    A 32 grouped layered file originally drawn in Clip studio paint, added layer comps in Photoshop does either:
    - upon placement place correctly but does not allow the changing of object layer options. OLO has a empty grey preview and does NOT change the image after pressing ok.
    - upon "update links" crashed indesign or gives the error "cannot place this image, unsupported color space" (same image as above which DID place)

    I have tried to:
    - move the layers to a new file, same effect
    - opened other files similarly made which work
    - tried this on a MAC which worked
    - had a friend try this on her PC, which didn't work till she changed her color space settings to what I have. Her saved file from that photoshop did not work and gave the same results

    File is 1.2gb, 32 grouped layers, 32 layer comps, CMYK, default color spaces as far as I can tell

17. InDesign Review Feature

    My coworker and I are both suddenly facing major problems with the review functionality with Adobe InDesign 16.1 (Windows). This has only been occurring for about 10 days. When the review function actually works instead of an error or just loading nonstop (only works 30% of the time now), the links often don't work in the end for other viewers to review and show up as an error. Now, when this works, the comments from the review link are not showing up where they were placed, and when we go in to implement them manually in InDesign from the weblink, the weblink automatically updates in real time and all comments shift over.

18. The UI is not scaling correctly on Windows 4k screens - UI too small

    Hi, I am having problems with the UI Scaling on InDesign on my 4k laptop. I am using the recommended system scaling of 250% which works well with other apps except for Adobe, most noticeably InDesign. I pay a premium price for Adobe CC which should be reflected in their products. The UI is way too small on InDesign compared to Illustrator and Photoshop.

    I also have problems in all adobe apps when using an external monitor to expand my screen size. Dragging the apps from one monitor to the other does all sorts of weird things.

    I have attached images showing the difference of the UI between Illustrator (which looks normal) and InDesign.

20. Share for Review - Not Working

    I have tried share for review both with clients (who have CC) and with my team members (who all also have CC) and have been unsuccessful every time. When selecting the link that is sent to the users email, they are then redirected to their "Synced Files" and not the review link.

    This has happened whether we share it as private, public w/ password, or public. We have also tried logging out of CC and back in with no luck.
