magnification copy
Indesign 16.2.1 x64
If I select some text to copy, then change the magnification, then Ctrl+C, move the curser to a new point in the text and Ctrl+V, it pastes the magnification, not the text.
Not a major problem, but one has to ask "why?". I expected it to copy the text, not the workspace.1 vote -
footnotes bug
How do I get footnote #1 in my screenshot to show up with footnotes #2 and #3 at the bottom of the page. For the life of me, I cannot find a setting that makes this possible. Thank you in advance.

Koreans have to press the spacebar twice when using InDesign
When typing Korean in InDesign, you need to press the spacebar twice.If you've ever used InDesign in Korean, you'll find this kind of work is very annoying. This issue did not appear in CS6 and earlier versions of CC. So, for Koreans who use InDesign, the InDesign CC version is a disaster.
This problem cannot be solved by using any option in InDesign, and Koreans are using unverified sub software to solve this problem. And many Koreans are wondering why InDesign is a step backwards from the previous version and doesn't solve even these basic problems.
It seems it's been quite some time since the CC version was released, and I wonder if Adobe has any plans to address this issue.

Layer hidden by top layer
I have a layer with text and images and then a layer below it will squares of solid colors. Whenever the text layer is visible and on top, the colors cannot be seen despite there being areas where they should be completely visible. The text box is set to transparent as well. When I move the colored squares to the text layer they can be seen. How can this be fixed without having the squares be moved to the text layer?

Index not listed correctly after converting IDML file to INDD
When I convert INDD files to IDML, and then I convert those again in INDD the index file disassembles completely the layers.
It seems to happen from the third level like in this example:
Chapter 5
5.9
1.1.1
1.1.1
1.1.2
1.1.2.1
1.1.2.2How can I avoid that, and let the Index keep the right list from the first conversion?

This bug existed before in Indesign and Illustrator was fixed in the meantime and was now apparently reissued! I love traditions!
A bug evergreen CC Libraray
If buying AdobeStock-Pictures via CC Library-Window in Indesign

3 Bugs one Update > Edge smoothing doesnt work correctly > Effects previews and use doesent work correctly and shredderesd text >
After the last update, the following things no longer work properly:
1. CC Libraries
(Crashes and shows either a reduced or enlarged section of the library and is no longer usable. Only a program restart helps ... short term! see screenshot 1. the bug was already in Illustrator!)- edge smoothing! (Not only since the update): ... Does not work properly for quite some time! 2.1 Completely covered areas, lines and graphics have a slight contour due to the edge smoothing and become minimally visible (although these would actually be invisible and not visible in print) or form minimally soft edges, or corners where there are none! (see screenshot 2) 2.2 Frames with effects and in which images are loaded whose outer edges are 100 percent transparent, form fine gray outer lines on the outer edges where there are none!
- effect & effect preview: no longer works properly with texts and shreds them after scaling or makes them invisible! A problem which I never had before and what worked wonderfully before the update. (S. Scrrenshot 3)
In addition, as an addition bugs in Íllustrator with 3D extrusions and invited images on it! Bugs with Adobe RAW: Zoom Scollrad works no longer or only stuttery!
Dear Adobe team, what is going on? The whole thing costs a lot of time, a lot of money and nerves ... infinite nerves!!!!!!!!! It's starting to remind me of QuarkXpress!

How should I explain this to my screenshare customer????? Oh it could look great ... in print. Unfortunately I can't show it to them right now!

Nach dem letztem Update, funktionieren folgende Dinge nicht mehr Ordnungsgemäß:
1. CC Libraries
(Stürzt ab und zeigt entweder einen verkleinerten oder vergrößerten Ausschnitt der Libary und ist nicht merh nutzbar. Nur ein Programmneustart hilft … kurzfristig! s. Screenshot 1. Den Bug gab es schon mal in Illustrator!)Kantenglättung! (Nicht erst seit dem Update): …
Funktioniert seit geraumer Zeit nicht mehr ordnungsgemäß!
2.1. Vollständig abgedeckte Flächen, Linien und Grafiken haben durch die Kantenglättung auf einmal ein leichte Kontur und werden minimal sichtbar (Obwohl diese eigentlich unsichtbar und im Druck nicht sichtbar wären) oder bilden minimal weiche Kanten, oder Ecken wo keine sind! (S. Screenshot 2)
2.2 Rahmen mit die mit Effekten versehen sind und in denen Bilder eingeladen werden deren Ausskanten zu 100 Prozent transparent sind, bilden an den Aussenkanten feine graue aussenlinien, wo keine sind!Effekt & effektvoschau:
funktioniert nicht mehr richtig bei Texten und zerschreddert diese nach Skallierung oder macht diese unsichtbar! Ein Problem welches ich bislang nie hatte und was vor dem Update wunderbar funktionierte. (S. Scrrenshot 3)
Dazu als Beigabe Bugs bei Íllustrator mit 3D-Extrusionen und eingeladen Bildern darauf! Bugs bei Adobe RAW: Zoom Scollrad funktinóniert nicht mehr oder nur stotterhaft!
Liebes Adobe-Team, was ist los? Das ganze kostet viel Zeit, viel Geld und Nerven .. unendlich viel Nerven!!!!!!!!! Es erinnert mich allmählich an QuarkXpress!

Indesign crashes when there is a footnote conflict (imported document)

Ab der langen Fussnote wird kein importierter Text mehr dargestellt, jedoch trotz genügen Leerseiten ein Übersatz angezeigt.Beim Versuch einer Synchronisation innerhalb eines Buchdokumentes stürzt Indesign ohne Fehlermeldung ab.

Issues with MacOS custom keyboards and InDesign
The users have InDesign V16.1 installed on macOS Big Sur (11.4).
They use custom software keyboards (created with Ukelele) to type Native American language characters (Salish via IPA). They use custom fonts that have the required glyphs for the language. OpenType marks are used for composing characters. The fonts are both Unicode and OpenType compliant. Frequently a properly composed character will consist of a primary glyph (such as "K") followed by a combining glottal and a wsuperior. If each key of the custom software keyboard has only a single unicode code point assigned, everything works fine. However, if the custom software keyboard has more than one unicode code point assigned, then only the first unicode code point glyph is accepted and displayed by InDesign. This is consistent and repeatable in InDesign. With all other tested apps (Word, Pages, Mellel, OS Finder, etc) both the custom fonts and custom keyboards work fine (a single keypress, with multiple unicode code points assigned) displays all of the glyphs assigned to the keystroke.The users have InDesign V16.1 installed on macOS Big Sur (11.4).

Indesign CC Crashing when assigning character base style to a child style by script.
Indesine crash evry time i try to assign base character style when the text in question have child style. So i have "Product" character style, and "Bold Product". Text field have Product style on it from get go. Then i use script to edit this field and after that i construct new string and put it in field. So I assign first part of content to field, use Bold Product style on it. Then second part the name of product and I want to assign Product style to it, indesigne crash evry time i try to do it. No matter how i try to assign this style, by whole tkst, by part of text, or by insertpoint. Only way to do it is to define a diffrent style based on Product, for example ProductScript. And it works as intended.
This isint some crucial problem, but belive me, after 4h of tinkering with it is just... no comment.
