3. Text wrap should work normally with anchored objects

   > >Just make text wrap on an anchored object work exactly as it does when you have a seperate object. Not sure what the point is of having it ignore the text wrap for objects above the line it's anchored to. I can always tell it to ignore if that's what I want.> >

4. Conditional text paste problem

   > >I use conditional text quite a bit… it’s a really useful feature.> However, if you have to edit the text there is an issue (for me anyway). If you “type” new/replacement text everything is fine. But more often than not I am pasting text from a marked UP PDF or an email or Word file… when you paste, it automatically defaults to unconditional, even though what it is replacing is all a specific condition. Is that a bug? Or is it just me?> Latest InDesign, late 2015 27″ iMac Retina 40GB RAM, latest MacOS Monterey> >

5. Using text variables causes highlighting text in PDF to be inconsistent/scrumbled

   > >When exporting to PDF from a file including text variables, it results in text in pdf that it is impossible to highlight correctly. and therefore - it is impossible to mark PDF comments on it. Screenshot and PDF files are attached.> It only happened with ARIAL font, and only in certain book files (that were created in previous ID version). I couldn't recreate the bug in another file.> When I removed the text variables the PDF was exported fine.> I also had another kind of conditional text I made in these files - it was a sentence written inside the 'Text After' field in Bullets & numbering tab in a Paragraph style, and would show on book only when typing something (I used space) using this paragraph style. This kind of conditional text had the same effect on PDF text, and when removed - PDF got exported fine.> >Indesign 14.0.1 on OSX 10.14.2> >

16. Bug: Conditional text not shown as underlined when text is marked otherwise

    > >Version: Indesign 17.x on Windows 10> Problem: Sometimes text is being marked in bright yellow by Indesign. This is something related to character spacing and hyphenation and set. If that text is also set to be conditional, the underlines are not shown. In the attached picture you see it. This is a continuous conditional text.> >
