1. find/change search selection changes randomly

   ID 14.0.2

   I use certain Find/Change queries repeatedly.

   The queries are saved with the SEARCH option set to SELECTION.

   Normally I select a portion of text and run the F/C query to automatically make changes.

   Recently however, the query is sometimes applied to the WHOLE DOCUMENT.
   I haven't found a pattern, but maybe once out of every 4 tries. It seems it randomly defaults to SEARCH=DOCUMENT, instead of the way the query was saved.

   Hope I have described it clearly enough...

2. Renaming an object layer by double-clicking is tedious - sometimes non-responsive

   When working with layers, select an object, then double click the name to rename, it takes multiple clicks and a delay of several seconds before the name field becomes editable. Why? I don't see any other way to rename the object layer.

3. Disappearing objects

   I'm finding several of my indesign documents now have this lovely helpful trait where random objects dissappear and reappear off the page depending on zoom or moving other objects near it making it near unusable as a program unless I waste time copying and pasting everything on to a new document. Sort it out adobe this program should NOT have this level of bug at v14!

5. InDesign Is Still Unusably Slow

   Despite this forum being filled with "solved" reports of InDesign being unusably slow, it remains so.
   I am editing a 4 page document that is almost all text, and yet I get the spinning ball after each and every keystroke. It can take 5-10 seconds just to complete typing a word, and heaven help me if I make a mistake and need to backspace.

   I just updated InDesign this morning so I am on 14.0.2. I'm running Windows 10 1903. The machine is an MSI laptop with an i7 processor and 12GB of RAM.

   I have attempted to edit the file with no other programs open and I get the same (lack of) results. But it's worth noting of course that "don't have anything else open" is hardly a realistic workflow for any modern user.

6. IDML save changes Object Styles/Transparency Settings

   When I export a package the resulting IDML and INDD files are different.

   In all cases, the IDML file appears to randomly assign different transparency settings to random objects across any number of pages. One Object Style was changed to 60% opacity when it should have remained at 100%. In another a drop shadow was applied at 75% and Opacity was set to 60% for the image inside a graphic box, when neither effect had been turned on for the content of the box object.

   It has taken me awhile to track down. My partner was opening idml versions of my work, and kept nagging me about "why does this look THATway?" I finally caught on that it was the IDML export being messed up.

   The resulting files are rather large, containing many linked images, but if you wish I can provide the package of v15 of my project, which contains the two NOT MATCHING files in idml and indd formats. Let me know.

   Thank you.

   James

   P.S. It's possible the IDML open/import process is the culprit, but since I see the same error in the same place when I open the file each time, I suspect it was exported incorrectly.

   The attached screenshot shows the INDD file on the left, and the IDML file on the right. Files opened from the packaged folder after packaging.

7. Footnote marker is replaced with an unknown character if preceded by a character with a specific Unicode pattern

   Footnote marker is replaced with an unknown character if preceded by a character with a specific Unicode pattern. Unicode pattern is U+##1a. Here are some of those characters:

   U+011a
   U+021a
   U+031a
   U+041a
   U+051a
   U+061a
   U+071a
   U+081a

   You could try the attached test file for placement in to an InDesign document. Unicode of the character following the footnote marker is : U+011a

   This happen when file format of the file is either RTF or DOC. Its not a issue with DOCX.

8. Background Tasks panel

   I'm not trying to post an idea or add something.
   I merely want the Background Tasks panel to actually be useful!

   When a file fails to export... no reason is given! Just that it failed. WTH? How can that in any way be deemed to be a "reason" or much less... useful in finding the issue and fixing it?

   A fail reason... bad font, corrupt file.

9. Shortcut for duplicate in InDesign doesn't work on MacBook Pro

   The keyboard shortcut for Duplicate (option+command+shift+D) in Indesign 14.0.1 doesn't work on my MacBook Pro (OSX 10.14.3).
   The work around is to either Alt+Drag or to select the item, select the Edit Menu and then hit the shortcut.

    Whenever I launch Indesign I get a crash pop up saying AIGPU Sniffer has quit unexpectedly.
    Indesign is fine to work in however I am fed up with this AIGPU issue coming up all the time and don't know if it is effecting anything else?
    I've had loads of issues with the latest CC - really not impressed Adobe! Any suggestions on how to stop this happening?

18. Effects not working correctly

    Some of the "effects" (inner glow, outer glow, basic feather, etc.) do not work as they are supposed to. For example, I cannot get the "outer glow" effect to apply only to text, it either applies itself to the whole object or it applies a very faint glow that can hardly be seen and that no amount of adjusting will fix (yes, I know that I have to choose "text" from the drop-down menu and unclick the effect for the "object"). And, just now (11/8/2018, 1:30 pm), I was trying to apply a gradient feather to just the "fill" of a text box and it did absolutely nothing. The box is still completely full of opaque color no matter what I do. Sometimes an effect will work in one area or section of my project and not in others. I like the effects, but I sure wish they worked more consistently.

19. Background Tasks Palette too wide

    The Background Tasks Palette is too wide compared to other palettes in the UI (MacOS).
    I dock several palettes together to save real estate on my monitor. When I focus on most palettes, the width is 240 pixels, but the Background Tasks palette can't be made narrower than 400 pixels – a 66% increase! If there was a reason to have this palette be so wide I'd understand the limitation, but most of the relevant information in that palette would easily fit within the 240 width.

20. Overall performance poor

    The program takes 3-4 minutes trying to launch, then quits, generating an unexpected error report. It does this 2 times again before it will open the 3rd time. Making it nearly 12 minutes before it is actually usable.

    Fonts: when a text box or text is clicked or selected, without exception, there is a long delay and spinning ball prior to being able to do anything with the text. Suitcase Fuision 19.1.1 is the font management program and they claim the problem is with Adobe.

    Paste in place: sporadically the "paste in place", doesn't work properly–both through key command and pull down menu. It pastes wherever it feels like, even after restarting sometimes, (which creates the delay again opening).

    Linking: often it will not automatically check folders for links, despite this feature being checked and relink to last location selected in preferences. Manual linking must be done. In books, this costs dearly in time lost.

    These may seem like small inconveniences, but when you are hammering through dozens of files a day this is incredibly time consuming and a huge waste of my time. Which is my billable time.

    It isn't the system or hardware; with the latest and greatest Mac, with a solid state drive and plenty of room to manoeuvre, it plows through massive AE files and can handle Maya files. There is something wrong that ID is requiring so much CPU to handle what it used to do in a snap. If that's what the issue is. I haven't a clue why it's performing so badly wit this last iteration.
