Preview glitches.
>>>ID 17.2.1

> Zooming in/out in a document sometimes displays glitches/artifacts that block the view of the actual design.
> Moving the window or dragging the document around the pasteboard fixes the issue; still, it's annoying because it blocks one from working properly.1 vote -

overprint
>>>Overprint in my currently installed versions of INDD (17.2.1) and AI (262.1) is unpredictable. I have ust received feedback from a client, that the date on a recently printed flyer is illegible. It is overprinting on a dark background, but in INDD the element is not set to overprinting. A screen PDF from the same INDD-file is completely normal. I've had this happeining in a couple of INDD-documents since the last update. I have had the same issue with an AI document this week as well.

overprint is unpredictable in INDD and AI
>>>In the latest versions of INDD (17.2.1) and AI (26.2.1) i find that the overprint settings have become unpredictable. I have just received feedback from a client, that the date on a flyer i designed for him is illegible. In the attached print-file the date actually is overprinting. In INDD though the element is not set to overprinting. I have had the same issue with another document this week in AI.

hyphenation not working properly in English
>>>first, why can't I use a snipping file here? Neither .jpg or .png will work - your site denies these file types.
>>My hyphenation is really out of whack. If you look at the first line of text, it's crazy that it's wrapping the 1, for WW1 to the next line. If I add the No Break from the Character panel, it moves "World War" down to the second line.

Opening (book) document of same name but different path overwrites existing open file
>>>Finalizing a book with 15 chapters, each about 15 - 30 pages (total 505 pages in book). Have several different versions, in separate folders; all with same file names and book names. Recently discovered that some files in the "FINAL" folder had been overwritten with earlier versions.
>>Is is sporadic and I have not been able to fully duplicatie. Looks like if A/chapter1 is open and then B/chapter1 is opened, A/chapter1 is overwritten with the content from B/chapter1. Something also occurs that causes A/chapter1 to get flagged as "possibly damaged" when next opened.
>>I cannot tell if this occurs only when the book file is open, or if it happens every time (I don't do it often enough to track).
>>Book containing the overwritten files will do successful pre-flight, but consistently CRASHES indesign completely when trying to do package for print. (Crash reports submitted)

Preflight bug for non-proportional scaling glyphs text
>>>Still, I think it's either a bug with preflight or at least an unexpected behavior of the preflight function.
>
> Preflight had an error with the first insertion point after the auto bullet; not with a specific character.
> At least it says that the error is related to the bullet, but it is showing an insertion point only when I click to select the error on the page.>FWIW: At least the individual information on the shown error is highly misleading.
>>Problem is described here and ID sample with the problem available at this address: >https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/new-problem-with-non-proportional-scaling/m-p/12903503#M474837>

InDesign 2022 mising table strokes after opening the idml file
>>>After opening idml files in InDesign 2022 (v. 17.2) some table strokes are set to 0 pt while they should be stroked at 1 pt. There's no such issue with InDesign 2021 which opens the idml correct. Any ideas are welcomed.

Table of Contents problem on right-facing page on spread
>>>I use two levels of ToC (Main and sub headings). On right-facing pages in a spread, the main heading (TOC-1) appears >below> the sub-headings (TOC-2) in the Table Of Contents.
>>Consider the two attached files. The page shown in Toc problem-1 is a right-facing page in the book. The Level 1 heading is "Audible Signals," and the three Level 2 subheads are "Train Whistle/Horn Signals, Train Buzzer Signals, and Tower Whistle/Horn signals. This SHOULD appear with Audible Signals as the top-level and the other three below it. On a LEFT FACING page it works correctly. On a right-facing page it does not. The second file, Bad TOC.jpg, shows what happens on a right-facing page. Two of the subheads get grouped with the previous section.
>>The fix for this needs to be a Level-1 heading, on a right-facing page of a two-page spread, must always take precedence over Level 2 leadings.

Can't create snap to baseline style
>>>I just paid for and downloaded ID 17.2.1 after using cs6 and need to meet a deadline for a four page newsletter. I can't seem to find any buttons whatsoever that allow me to create a body style with the text snapping to the baseline. My text is all over the shop. Did I just do a faulty download, or am I missing something? Where is the option for baseline snapping or not snapping?
>1 voteAlign to Baseline Grid option is available in the Paragraph panel.
It is also available in the Paragraph Style dialog under the Indents and Spacing section - Align to Grid.
Hope you find this useful.

Bug: Cross-ref tooltip changes arbitrarily
>>>Windows 10, Indesign 17.1
>
> What happens: when checking cross-refs for pointing to other documents only the tooltip can help. The video shows that the cross-refs are pointing to level 3 or level 4 headlines, but only with the level 4 headline it would show on what page the cross-ref is placed. With level 3 it just shows the cross-ref text.1 vote
