Numbers keys on extended keyboard not recognized when trying to fit window e.g.Ctrl+0.
Numbers keys on extended keyboard not recognized when trying to fit window e.g.Ctrl+0.
InDesign should have the same fit to window or 100% functions as Illustrator or Photoshop.
The only thing that does work on the extended numeric keypad is the + and - keys.

Upon opening indesign, resetting menus and preferences, restarting, etc. Issues have been ongoing for at least a week.Align menu items are offset so that the ones at the bottom can't be used.

Pallette pop-up menus appear on dual monitor
I'm using InDesign CC (latest version) on a Macbook Pro 15" (OS 10.13.3) together with a Dell 24" monitor. Most of my pallettes (except the very basic ones) are on my Macbook, while I have my workfield on the bigger monitor. What happens is that the pop-up menus of the pallettes i keep on the on the Macscreen appear on the big monitor, for instance all the transparancy-options. Very annoying and time-consuming!
I tried resetting the prefs, re-installed InDesign, but no effect. Does anybody recognize this and have a fix? Thanks a lot!4 votes -
spell check window opening partially off-screen InDesign 2025
When I try to launch spell check it launches partially off-screen. I cannot use the spell check, resize it or even close it.
I can close indesign and re-open and it closes the window. I have tried restarting the machine and opening it on an extended window but it still opens in the top left corner of my primary screen with the top half of the window off-screen.1 vote -
Window size and position is forgotten
Even though another entry entitled "InDesign in Windows ALWAYS forgets app size and position!" is marked as "Fixed/Solved" elsewhere in these pages, the issue is not fixed. In fact, it is more persistent in the latest 16.2.1 "update"... plus, ID crashes way more often now as well... I know this is another issue but for me when InDesign does not work as advertised, the whole thing –crashes, window size and position– is ONE issue: Adobe InDesign is buggy, more than ever, period.

Text not active after clicking on pdf markup comment panel
After clicking on the comment in the pdf comments panel, and applying the comment (or selecting the comment after auto-applying), sometimes I have to click again in the actual text frame to start typing any adjustments i need to make. It would be great if I could just type in the text frame after clicking on the comment, without having to again click in the text frame.

Indesign 16.1 Insert new cross reference takes 20 minutes for the panel to load
Indesign version: 16.1
Steps to reproduce: Insert new cross reference
Expected result: New Cross-Reference panel should load within an acceptable delay
Actual Result: New Cross-Reference pane takes extremely long time to load.To add a new cross reference takes about 20 minutes for the panel to load, while editing an existing cross reference is normal. The issue is common to many documents.
I tried to go back to versions 16.0 and 16.01, but had the same issue.
I have used this feature in the past and every thing was normal.

Window Management Not Apple/MacOS Standard
The window management across all adobe apps but most of all inDesign is buggy and not the correct apple standard. You can see its not inline with other apps and the native resizing tools by looking at the edges of the application and the rounded corners.
Window management tools do not work with inDesign as it resizes it self. Grabbing edges is extremely difficult and usability is bad. Traffic lights tend to move down to about 3/4 into the document or disappear all together.

eyedropper tool doesn't work any more and scrollbar disappears in color panel
Since i update MacOS Sierra (10.12.6 version), when i try to copy a text style with the eyedropper tool, it doesn't work. Instead to copy the right style, the text becomes always white.
Other problem: in the color palette, there is no more the scroll bar: haw can i see the colours continue below the end of the window??
And also the indicator of the color type (rgb, cmyk, pantone...) doesn't appear next to the single color.
Other problem: sometimes when i open in design, it doesn't show the palettes. I have to restart several times. I verified the…4 votes -
Note strip content in cross references panel varies
- Indesign CC 2018
- Open a document with cross refs.
- When hovering with the mouse over a cross ref in the cross ref panel a note strip appears, showing some information about the page it points to and also the page of the source.
- On some cross refs it does not. There it shows the cross ref text. This seems to be due to the cross ref format being slightly different, but all pointing to level 3 headlines.
- See attached images adobeerror5.1.jpg (correct note strip) and adobeerror5.2.jpg (false note strip)

InDesign CC 2017.1 12.1.0.56 build links panel redraw issue
InDesign CC 2017.1 12.1.0.56 build links panel redraw issue. My links palette will not display correctly, even after closing and reopening. Sometimes I can't really use it at all. The divider between the links list and links info moves up and down, but it's hard to read and I can't always select an image or mulitple images. Restarting the app, restarting my computer, seems to make no difference.
