Change of indesign behaviour regarding form elements - problems of non printing elements
Indesign Version 15.12x64 Windows
I opened an old document (paper registration/order form) and suddenly became aware that something has happened.
A lot of input fields was visible - in the old version i did never see tham in this view.
But this was not the problem.
The problem was, that if I converted the cocument to PDF with the STANDARD PRINT preset , all boxes were gone.
After some investigation i found out, that those have been converted to intaractive elements also without my knowledge.
Only after i changed the option "INTERACTIVE ELEMENTS" the very last option on the PDF…

Pop ups fail
Hi, I have Id cc 13.0.1 by Adobe Creative Cloud. When I double clic on an indd file all pop up menus from differents windows don't work, I can choose (e.g. vertical alignment from framework option or multiply from effects) but the original option remains. If I open the app first and the file later it works perfectly.
Hope this helps. Bye!1 vote -

I have used the below:
Find What:

Bullet_Txt (paragraph style)
Required Action:
Need to implement the paragraph style at the as-well-as eliminate the bullet with tab.

The Open Type option prevents us to resize the box from the bottom, which is annoying. Please move it slightly off-center. Thank you.

Go back to old method of "space after" paragraphs
I'm fine with the concept of allowing users to adjust the "spacing between paragraphs using same style." But the way this feature was added doesn't make sense: I think you should have left the old "space after" system the way it was, and allowed users to add the "spacing between paragraphs using same style" box as an extra option. The way you set it up (unless I'm misunderstanding something), anyone wanting to put spacing between paragraphs now has to enter data into two boxes, whether they want certain sections to have custom spacing or not. It makes the "spacing between…

Title Case Is Not Actually Title Case
I'm editing book with over 1,000 pages. I am selecting copy, changing case to Title Case, but it just capitalizes first letter in all words. There needs to be another case option. Title case needs to be setup so it makes a "title" of a book so words like "of" are not capitalized. New option can be called First Letter Caps, and Title case can be fixed to address words that should not be capitalized in a title of a book or headline.

create outlines
v 14.02
In previous versions, when creating outlines, the newly converted text could simply be ungrouped and the "letters" could be moved and manipulated independently. Now the function is creating each line as a graphic with the only option of releasing compound path to separate the letters. This is hugely inconvenient in a larger block of text. Is this a bug or some new function/option that can be changed? Thanks!1 vote -
Not all Color Panel menus accessible via keyboard shortcut
When setting a custom keyboard shortcuts, there is no option for
