Bug: mixed open type numbers
If a text is set in a paragraph format using medieval numbers and using character format with versal number for footnotes, sets the number with two digits wrong: the first will be versal, the second medieval (see image).

cross-reference
Bonjour,
Je travaille présentement sur un long document dans lequel j'ai intégré un lexique à la fin. J'utilise des cibles hyperliens pour afficher les entrées du lexique à partir du texte au moyen de références croisées.
Or, les cibles hyperliens disparaissent aléatoirement et fréquemment. Si j'essaie de réparer tous les liens brisés, je n'arrive pas à terminer toutes les réparations avant que des liens réparés soient à nouveau brisés.

iMac : iMac (Retina 5K, 27-po, Fin 2015)
Version système: osx 12.7.6
Version de inDesign : 19.5

InCopy: Paragraph Panel Bugs When Placed in Top Menu Area
I’ve noticed an issue with the Paragraph panel when it's placed in the top menu area of InCopy. The Space After option disappears and only becomes visible when the panel is pulled out or moved to the right-side menu.
Additionally, the Drop Cap feature behaves oddly in the top menu. It restricts the character selection to a range of 6-150. However, once the panel is pulled out, I can select 1 character as expected.
Please ensure the Paragraph panel functions consistently in all locations, similar to how it works in InDesign, where I haven’t encountered these issues.
Also, I couldn’t…

[Variable fonts] Axis committal doesn't stick
When using a variable font, and changing an axis’s value via the text box, it doesn't stick when the menu is Escaped. However, the value does stick when it is escaped if it was committed via slider.
To reproduce:
- Set some text in a text box.
- Open the Character Panel.
- Choose a variable font.
- Go into the variable font value settings via the button to the bottom right.
- Change a value in the text box.
- Hit Enter to commit. (Shouldn't really be necessary and doesn't seem to have effect anyway).
- Hit Escape to get rid of the slider pop-up.

InDesign 19.5 hangs on startup (ARM Mac, not sure about x86 and Windows)
I've been experiencing this for some time on different Macs with different versions of InDesign. This time round I have a repeatable setup which makes the issue occur consistently. The issue occurs on 'real' machines as well as VMs - it's just that this time I've 'caught' the problem in one of my VMs.
I am using a Mac OS X virtual machine (using Parallels) on an ARM processor (M2 Max, 64GB of memory). In the virtual machine, I've only installed Mac OS X Sequoia, Creative Cloud Desktop, and InDesign 19.5. Everything is as vanilla as it can be.

Eyedropper Tool resets to Color Theme Tool after each update
It's not exactly a bug, but a constant annoyance: I use the Eyedropper Tool a lot. After each Indesign update it is reset to the Color Theme Tool in the tools palette. Could you please have it remember how it was set (or actually make the Eyedropper Tool the default and not the Color Theme Tool)?
I primarily use it to copy formatting from text. When I'm in the Text Tool highlighting the text and then wanting to change to the Eyedropper Tool its only then that I notice it has been reset. Then I always have to change from…1 voteHello Christian,
Thanks for your post. We will review your request.
A simple thing that you could do after each update is to simply press the Keyboard Shortcut 'I' to make the Eyedropper Tool the frontmost (bringing it above Color Theme tool).
That will also make it remain the default from thereon and will cease to be an annoyance to you.
Hope this is helpful.

Indesign crashes when attempting to copy or delete a table with an anchored text form field.
Mac Monteray 12.7.6 - Indesign 2024
I'm using tables to hold form fields for a PDF form. When a text form field is anchored in a table, copying the table will cause text fields to disappear. Continuing to copy or delete that table will eventually cause a InDesign to crash. When reopening Indesign none of the menu commands work properly and I have to use Command Q to quit InDesign again and reopen in order to continue my work.

screen redraw
InDesign 18.x through 19.5. Mac, Apple Silicon, M1 Max w/ 96 GB RAM and at least 1 TB free storage, M3 Max w/128 GB Ram and at least 1 TB free storage.
Basically, sometimes the screen becomes “corrupted” and weirdly glitched. Closing the file and reopening fixes it, but that is not acceptable when it is super frequent. Which it is.
This has been a problem for over a year, across multiple full InDesign versions. It happened on my M1 MacBook Pro, and still happening on my M3.
Typically these documents involved a placed PDF page that itself is a scanned…
