1. Stop screwing with my workspace settings

   How about app settings like Preferences and Workspace Settings live in the CC profile and it just lives in the cloud? Because you guys can't seem to do the "Retain current settings" thing ever, you have the option and the option never works. Not ONCE, ever.

   NOBODY WANTS THE ESSENTIALS WORKSPACE.

2. Cannot add CC Library P/C styles to documents more than one at a time

   New problem: suddenly I can't add paragraph/character styles from CC Libraries to documents unless I choose them one-by-one.
   (I'm trying to overwrite a previous version of the same styles, which to date I have done without issue nearly every day for months.)
   I have made no changes to my system (InDesign2018 Version 13.1 on Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.4).

   Description of behavior:

   1. Select list of Character (or Paragraph) styles and right-click to use option to add to the current document. "Add" option NOT available.

   2. Select single Character (or Paragraph) style and right click to use option to add to the current document. "Add" option is available.

   (See screenshots below for comparison.)

3. Export or Save dialog box partially hangs if you go to another app's window.

   When exporting to PDF or saving, if you go to another app or Finder window while the dialog box is open, it partially hangs. For example, if you've called up the Export box then hop over to Finder to verify the name/location of the folder to which you want to export, then go back to ID to complete the export. Everything that is normally blue ("save" "export," the name of the file, etc.), turns gray. You can click on it but nothing happens. You have to either cancel and close/reopen the document, or if you have unsaved changes, it hangs in the loop of "save changes" but you cannot click on any of the options (save, cancel, don't save). If you are lucky, you can keep navigating/clicking to get out of the hung loop. If not, you have to do a Force Quit.

   System specs: Mac Sonoma 14.2.1, InDesign CC 19.1

6. Myriad VF has a taller Ascent Baseline than Myriad Pro

   Myriad VF is supposed to be a variable version of Myriad Pro, so I was trying to use it in tandem/to replace Myriad Pro in the document I am working on. The huge problem is, for some reason the Ascent Baseline on Myriad VF is much taller than it should be, which then when I try to replace the font, it completely messes up everything. 

   I also have Myriad Variable Concept on my computer, (which is apparently supposed to only show up in Illustrator, or something? But it shows up in InDesign for me.) And it properly matches the Ascent baseline of Myriad Pro. 

   All 3 of them match on every baseline except Ascent too, so I’m thinking this is a bug. It only seems to effect things in InDesign, I’m not getting any misalignment in Photoshop or Illustrator, but I’m also not seeing all the same text box options in those programs that InDesign gives.

8. Location of link,indd & export files

   INDD CC on PC win10
   Working with local files and 2 LAN locations.
   1) Sick of Indd updating every week and forgetting file locations.
   2) the two options "Original Link folder" and "most recent Relink Folder" are meaningless.
   I would like to be able to drag a job folder from the network and work on it with Indesign first looking in that local folder for its links, link folder and fonts instead of the original job folder on the LAN.
   
   Why? - lets say I had an idea and want to test it without ruining the Main job. I make a local copy work with it, Decide that I like the result I can drop the folder on the network and tell it to overwrite the network files.
   EXCEPT only the local indd file is new all the work on the links will be overwritten with the original files - because it was still linking to the network - result all the new work is lost.

11. InDesign 14.1

    Opening InDesign just by itself makes it freeze completely. Ball of death (on Mac) .
    It asks me if I want to start automatic recovery however I can't click on any of the options because the ball of death doesn't let me. The window with the recovery message consequently shows up on top of any other screen.

    I could make InDesign work ONCE yesterday after restarting and today it completely crashes again. Unfortunately it also means one of my files is now stuck 'open' which is untimely.
    This is the latest verstion both of InDesign as well as Mac OS.

    Aaand while at it my Adobe Creative Cloud is being an absolute nightmare logging me out a lot and when I enter my log in details and confirm it thinks about it and says - you have been logged out. Takes me several attempts to make it work.

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Cheers!

12. InDesign 2025 Crashing Constantly

    Indesign 2025 has been crashing consistently since I updated it. The main trigger seems to be when you Option-drag any element. Text, image, shape. It immediately crashes. Any designer knows option-drag is a standard move for design work. This is very problematic. I have restarted, reinstalled, updated OS but still the same thing happens. Sometimes it now crashes when you PDF anything. Update has some serious glitches. Needs fixing asap.

19. Adjusting dashes and gaps on path moves dashes off path

    Opened a PDF of a line chart in Illustrator, copied/pasted into InDesign CC 13.0.1, then noticed the dashes of stroked paths didn't follow the path accurately in some places. On setting the "Corners" control to "None" those path's dashes snapped precisely to the path, but selecting any of the three Corners settings made the dashes move off the path the same amount. See attached PDF for before/after images.
