it is a time & space waster!!! hate it!!!

CC2019 when Exporting to PDF does not remember the filename you have given it
When exporting a PDF, InDesign normally remembers the name you have previously given the PDF you are exporting - CC2019 does not.
Example: you have an InDesign document named 'Hello'. You go to export it and InDesign automatically gives it the exported PDF name 'Hello.pdf' in the 'Save As' window as expected, but you rename it 'Goodbye.pdf' instead. If you ever want to export it again InDesign CC2019 no longer remembers 'Goodbye.pdf' as previous versions of InDesign, but reverts back to 'Hello.pdf' - so you have to rename it each time.
(InDesign CC2019 14.0.1 / Mac running OS X Mojave)6 votesIn the Export dialog, there is an option at the bottom called “Use InDesign Document Name as the Output Filename.” You can uncheck that option to remember the output filename you have given instead of InDesign defaulting to the document name.
Hope this helps.

To replicate this fault, please do the following:
1) Create a new document using the web workspace.

All colours in the swatches panel should go to CMYK;What ACTUALLY happens:
All colours in the swatches panel remain RGB. This results in an RGB black…3 votes -
zoom with touchpad windows
I would like you to make it possible to zoom with the fingers on the touchpad in Windows. It works in illustrator, but not in Indesign, at a PC, in Windows (only on Mac). Could you make this possible? It gives so much better control over the working process

indesign cc 2018 erratic display behaviour
Issues with linked images and vector shapes just going invisible and unselectable even though they are still in the links panel.
This bug makes it difficult to work, and leads to adding a huge number of linked images since I think they are not on the page.

When I save out an IDML version of my INDD 2022 v17.0 file, the text boxes from my Master page are in a different location on every spread.
Also, when I tried opening my INDD file in an older version (INDD v1.64) nothing happened. My file did not appear in the window, so I couldn't "go back" to an older version of INDD.

Can't Click/Drag Large Area of Main Title Bar
This was introduced in 17.0 and I was hoping it would be fixed by 17.3 but it hasn't been addressed.
Large areas of the title bar can't be clicked on/interacted with so one can't drag/move the main program window.
I'd say about 50% of the title bar is like this.

mapping styles
After assigning a Class in the Para or Character Style definition dialog (in Export Tagging), the Class usually disappears. So when I go to Edit All Export Tags accessed from a flyout in the paragraph, character, or object styles panel, I have to reassign that Class.

File rename
InDesign 13.0 running Mac OX 10.12.6
If and INDD file is renamed in the Finder when it's open in InDesign, saving the file will cause an error dialog to appear saying "Changes cannot be save as InDesign can no longer access the '[filepath:newfilename]' file. Place the file in the original location and try again." This error message appears whether trying to do a simple save or even Save As.
This error appears even though both the window header and the file name in the error message both reflect the changed (not the original) file name.
Unless file is restored to…

As per discussion over email, the crash is being faced in InCopy CC2014 while working with Smart Connection(external plugin).
We recommend you to upgrade to the latest version of InCopy 2020 (if you’re not already on it). It contains a lot of stability fixes.

Bookmark Can't Deselect
In the Bookmarks panel, when trying to set a bookmark, occasionally, a bookmark will be selected and there is no way to "deselect" it so you can create another top-level bookmark. Any bookmark you create becomes a child of the currently selected bookmark. There should be a way to deselect the current bookmark from the panel so you can add another bookmark without it being a child of the selected one.

Dear Adobe,
Yesterday we upgraded to 10.14 Mojave and I am not able to package files from windows server. Indesign freezes every time.

We have concluded our investigation into the issue and found that the issue is specific to few versions of MacOS 10.14.×.
As a part of our investigation we had reached out to many of you, where many of you have confirmed that the issue gets resolved after upgrading to MacOS 10.14.5.Note:
If you are NOT using MacOS 10.14.5 and still facing this issue, please upgrade your MacOs to 10.14.5 version.
In case you continue to face the same issue after the upgrade, you may reach out to us at sharewithid@adobe.com.For any other problem related to packaging workflows please create a new thread.
We are closing this thread for now.
Thank you for your patience all this while.

export, printing
I am unable to export or print a document through InDesign 2023. I have no errors in the document, but whenever I try to export the document (which is 113 pages long and has quite a number of images throughout), it just says "Failed to Export PDF File", but gives no reason for why this happened. I do get a pop-up window before the one that says the document failed to export and the pop-up says that some links for either files or hyperlinks are not accessible. I have removed all hyperlinks and all the images are linked…

pannels
sometimes panels like Links, Layer are not opening by command or clicking in Window menu, then I got a solution for this issue i.e. change the workspace to another and comeback to your old one, it will help you. But it'll be an issue for everyone else. So please solve this issue in next update.
