View position moves to center after exiting presentation mode
InDesign: 19.5
Mac Os: 14.5In the newest InDesign update, entering and exiting presentation mode changes the previous view position on the page to the center.
To reproduce: Zoom into any part of spread / page that isn't in the center. Enter presentation mode. Exit presentation mode. The view will now have jumped to the center of the page instead of keeping the previous position in view.

Text boxes only showing the line I'm editing and not the entire paragraph
Not an idea. a bug.
Come on guys this is basic stuff - can barely layout info like this.
Text boxes only showing the line I'm editing and not the entire paragraph
This is constantly happening. I'm on the latest everything. M1 MacBook Pro.I have to zoom in and zoom out to fix. This is unworkable. Just get the basics right guys... Adobe is impossible for reasons like this. If you can't get the basics right - don't bother developing new features. No wonder Apple think you develop below par software. This is your job to develop software that…

Distorted Text and Graphics in high sierra
When opening a previously created file, I noticed small visual artifacts in the rendering of vector graphics in the file. As I zoomed in to inspect it, the artifacts began jumping all over the place, and as I zoomed in further, text on the page began presenting the same behavior.
Using InDesign 2017.1, Build 12.1.0.56 on a 2016 Macbook Pro (2.9 GHz Intel Core i5, 16 GB RAM), running macOS High Sierra 10.13.

219 votesThis is a macOS10.13 issue, specific for some Intel GPU cards. Apple has fixed(partially) this issue inside macOS10.13.4 released build.
Following are the workaround for resolving this issue.
1) Update your mac machine to latest macOS10.13.4. Here, Apple has fixed this issue to some extent. You will face very less number of rendering issues.
2) Disable GPU preview and set display performance as typical.Once you have updated to macOS10.13.4 .You might still face some rendering issues. Since, Apple has not fixed this issue completely.
Please switch off GPU rendering for these cases and report a separate post for tracking. -

Random missing text which does not affect the PDF output
Greetings,
Please compare the two screenshots that I've posted. One is a shot from InDesign, and the other is a screenshot from the PDF output of the same text. As you can see there are some missing lines in when I look at the text in InDesign.
Some notes:
1) It always happens with list items (bullet lists, numbered lists)
2) The random missing text parts changes as I change the magnification (zoom) level
3) It happens on all my documents
4) I haven’t changed anything recently. No InDesign updates, etc.
5) The font used is Minion Pro…1 vote -
Fix the touchpad
Just fix the touchpad please. I've already discussed it In detail on the Adobe community (https://shorturl.at/hAPZ8), but the touchpad is not working well at all. Now it's just less worse than 19.0 but still not working properly. You can't pinch to zoom, unlike Illustrator for example, and in general, it's not smooth at all. Trying to scroll through a project is a challenge; it scrolls in jumps with almost zero control over it. Centering the project on the PC is impossible without control 0.

Scaling problem multiple monitors
InDesign Version: 19.4
Open InDesign on an external monitor (on Mac OS–Sonoma)Problem:
InDesign is in many cases unusable for me, because the window sometimes just scales itself down to a very tiny size without any reason.
Sometimes it happens when I try to zoom in in a document and in many other situations too.1 vote -
Typesetting changes on paragraphs that are not touched
while working on texts - like doing corrections or micro typopraphy – InDesign changes the line breaks to other paragraphs that I am not working on.
On the same page, but when I work on details sometimes I zoom and do not see that things are changing. This often causes changes to several pages and I need to fix everything back!1 vote -

[ID-4261145] White Horizontal lines appear on InDesign Document after enabling "Overprint Preview"
InDesign CC 13.1 x64
In every document I open, everytime there's a single line in the top area of the document/artboard. It appears when you activate the
Overprint Preview with high quality. Then InDesign generates a thin white line 1px thick and 101px away from the top of the document. It
also keeps this position when I zoom in or out. Only if I begin to drag the view via the hand tool then the line is broken (obviously it
has some trouble to refresh complete).
The line generates on all pages no matter if there're images or graphics or…9 votesHi,
Thank you for reporting the issue. We have been able to reproduce the issue and it is currently under investigation.

Little Black Lines and Delay When Dragging
When resizing a picture box in InDesign 20.0, little black lines appear along the box's edge (see attached). I've tried to lower the quality of the images in Preferences > Display Performance (see attached). I've also turned off animated zoom in Preferences > GPU Performance (see attached). I'm running an M3 Max 14-inch Nov 2023 MacBook Pro, Sequoia 15.1 (see attached Graphic/Displays details). These lines don't print, and they go away if I zoom in or out on the document. I believe this also only happens when the document view is at Fit to Page, but I'm not 100% sure.…

Black artifacts appear on rulers
When opening an older ID document and working on it, moving the mouse pointer around leaves black artifacts on the rulers, top and left. It also distorts the 0 point of the ruler in the upper left corner.
A quick zoom and return to 100% size will clear it, but with use, the rulers will accumulate black marks again.
This bug has persisted in many previous versions of ID, and is alive and well in v15 (2020).
I hope you can fix this quickly.

Issues with document previewing since installing InDesign update (16.2.1)
Hi, I'm operating a late 2013 27-inch iMac with 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5 processor. Currently running MacOS Mojave 10.14.6
Since installing the latest InDesign update (16.2.1) I've experienced various document preview issues:
- images that are contained within circular or other non straight-edged image boxes are not displaying at all.
- I get either a black box displaying or no box/frame at all. The frame is there because when I hit Select All I can see it but the image simply won't display at all, whatever the Appearance setting is on.
- However, if I create a JPEG or…1 vote -
Diagonal Lines no border
Having an issue with using diagonal lines in cell options. I'm wanting to split a cell diagonally with two different colours. The fill works fine as intended but the border isn't working at all. When you zoom right in on the cell it looks fine but when zoomed out it disappears. It also doesn't show up when exported as a PDF as you can see in the screenshot. My workaround has been to duplicate the table on top and then remove the diagonal lines fill, set the fill to none and then the border shows just fine. Not ideal…

After changing workspace the extension panels become huge
After changing workspace the extensions panels contents become huge. Clicking on anything in the panel does not work. Turning the panel off and on, changing workspace several times does not help. Only restarting the application makes the panel the standard size (zoom). Today I updated the application to the latest version, but the previous version also had the problem.
This is terribly annoying because I have to turn indesign off and on dozens of times during the day.

Make it possible to anchor a graphic to the beginning of a paragraph without five or six tries and two or three zooms
It'll go AFTER the first letter…it'll go some random place in the first FEW letters, but before the first one? Especially if the first one is a sans-serif letter "I"? HAHAHAHAHAH! No. Not without cajoling, retrying, zooming, threatening, and telling it what a good little cursor it is.
I realize this isn't an exciting problem, but it's been literally decades of this feature being…what's the technical term…bad.

Spacebar/shiftkey issue after some time of using InDesign
If I want to use the spacebar to navigate through my documents, or if I want to zoom in/out with cmd+spacebar, I'm unable to use that function. Also the shiftkey doesn't work, after some time of using InDesign.
This problem is solved when I restart my Mac.
Is there any solution for this? I think this problem exists since the update to the silicon version of InDesign. I'm using a Mac mini with M1-chip.
Thanks for you help, Bastian

document stuck halfway below view after zooming
this is a bit hard to describe but basically when i'm working on a square shaped document, when zooming in or out—i think mostly out?—the document will stick halfway visible (see screenshot) and the only way to see the full page again is to hit cmd-0 to have it centre itself back on the screen. this happens to me uncountable times an hour and it's a real pain.

Measurement Label Sizing
When using multiple monitors with different display ratios, I sometimes have a problem where the measurement labels for smart guides in InDesign become unreadably small on lower-definition monitors. At 100% zoom, the font size is equivalent to 3pts and is totally useless. I would love either options to choose interface font and appearance sizing for lower resolution monitors or the ability to change the font size of the measurement labels, otherwise I am limited to which monitors I can use Adobe CC on.
1 voteThis has been fixed in InDesign version 13.0.
Please update to latest InDesign for resolving this issue.Thanks

UI Artifact on Apple M1 Max with ultrawide screen
Display Artifacts
- Macbook Pro (2021)
- Apple M1 Max
- macOS 12.6
- Display: C49RG9X @ 5120x1440 120Hz
- App: Adobe Indesign 2023 v18.0
Ever since switching from an Intel mac to M1 mac, indesign randomly display this artifact anywhere when I scroll thru my working document. Previous 2022 version also suffer this problem, it's totally random. Only way I can get rid of this is zoom in and out and the artifact will go away. (Screenshot blur out some element for privacy purpose).
Also maybe this is also related to sleep & wake up of the mac on ultrawide resolution, after waking up…
