Selection tool issue in the latest version of InDesign.
>>>The selection tool now only works to change the size of boxes (text, images), it no longer lets you move the boxes around the page. To move boxes you know have to switch tools to the Free Transform Tool which makes everything more time consuming.

Assigned character style is ignored when you generate index
>>>If you manually assign certain Character Style to an index entry (for instance Bold) and the same index expression appears on the particular page more than once, Bold is often ignored when generating the index. It is properly generated only when the expression is the first one in the list.
>
> If you assign style (Bold) to second or third appearance of the expression on a page and generate index, the character style is ignored.>This feature is important. Certain index entries may be highlighted because the show page number of illustration, table, headline etc. So it is important to keep the highlighting. In case there is a collision (two different character styles), InDesign should (optionally) display the same page number in italic and bold:
>>Netherlands 12, >18>, >18>, 20
>>Because italic can mean illustration and bold definition.

Arrange object after unhide
>>>Using Adobe InDesign 15.0.1 x64 (CC 2020), after I unhid several linked image objects, I was unable to arrange those elements forward or backward to make it visible on top of other elements. The objects were not locked as I checked several times and even copying / pasting them would not allow me to rearrange them. Restarting solved the problem after I spent 20 minutes fighting with it.

Spacing text is different in InDesign 2021
>>>When opening a document in version 2021 which is created in 2020, the text looks exactly the same, but when you try to change the spacing of a word, the whole alinea is recreating a whole new spacing. Looks like it has something to do with metric, but it's really annoying. Spacing one word means re-spacing the whole alinea. Anyone else experienced the same?
