Data Merge ignores files when a header field is called 'table'
If Data Merge tries to select a data source where one of its header fields is called 'table' (all lowercase), it fails to import (InDesign v 13.0.1). It doesn't seem to matter which column it's in, but changing it to anything else (e.g. 'Table' with uppercase 'T') seems to fix it.
Tried it on 2 machines, same result. Adobe Customer Care on Twitter confirmed they could replicate it and suggested I post it here.
Short video attached illustrating the issue.

Embedded Publish Online doc fails in Firefox
Embedded Publish Online pages do not behave properly (i.e., go to full screen mode) in the latest release of Firefox 62.0.3 on Mac.
Please go to these two websites and click on the embedded document. It will attempt to go to full screen, but the cover only is jammed in the upper left corner of the screen. You can't navigate or do anything to fix that I've found. This is a serious problem, as many people have embedded Publish Online pages in their websites.

And also please advise with any workaround.
Thank you.

CC library saying signed out but cloud is signed in
The CC library panel in indesign 2018 13.1 x64 on Windows 8 says i'm signed out of creative cloud and cant access my libraries but i'm signed in.
Only fix I can find atm is to forcefully sign out then back in but it resets everytime I shut down my computer and I dont want to keep doing that just to access my library.
Advice would be fab - Cheers

Hyperlink shows up red in hyperlinks panel despite the URL working
The following URL shows up in the hyperlinks panel as red (meaning it should not work) but actually works when a PDF is made:
https://academic.oup.com/journals
This is the same for any links based on the above URL.
Is there anything that would cause this?4 votes -

The ability to resize all suitable dialogue boxes
There are some boxes that aren't resizable that make work frustrating to have to scroll back & forth - e.g. the "Table of Contents..." box - would like to be able to resize these sort of boxes to be able to see the entire list in a view. There are others but they escape me atm. I'll post the list as I come across them.

data merge to PDF: page numbers (generated with current page number marker) don't increase
To recreate this bug:
1) Make a new print document 8 pages long (doesn't matter if pages are facing or not) A4 or letter size (this doesn't matter either)
2) Go to the master page and somewhere on the master page, add a new text frame and within that frame, add an auto page number.
3) In a text editor, create the following file for test purposes and save it with the name "test.txt" - (cut and paste the next five lines of text):
name
Colin
David
Jose
Max
4) Return to InDesign, go to the data merge palette and select data source (the text file that was just made). Place a text placeholder on any page (this doesn't matter where)
5) From the data merge palette, go to Export to PDF, all records, and to the desktop is fine. Any PDF setting will work, use [High Quality Print] for this demo.
6) view the PDF that is generated.WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN:
A 32pp file should be created with page numbers going from 1-8, then 1-8 again three more times.
WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
A 32pp file is created, but page numbers either stay on 1 (if facing pages was off) or go 1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1..... (if facing pages was on)To recreate this bug:
1) Make a new print document 8 pages long (doesn't matter if pages are facing or not) A4 or letter size (this doesn't matter either)

HSB Color Slider Not Working
The HSB/ CMYK Color slider window hasn't been working for months, every project has this window grayed out and disabled with no options to turn it back on.
If you want to change your colour you have to use the Color Picker, which in comparison, isn't good.

Adobe Indesign Ruler - Corrupt Display
Adobe Indesign Ruler - Corrupt Display.
When opening a document and mousing thru the document the display of the ruler starts to add "marks" in the measurements.
We have been able to reproduce this in versions 2014, 2015, 2017 and 2018.
We have gone and used the rename "enUS" method and it only works temporarily.
The issue is sporadic and can happen on new documents or old.
Also sporadic through out the versions as well - same document can happen on one version and not another version.
All application updates have been applied as well as Mac OS updates for video drivers.
Mulitple Mac OS being affected - 10.10, 10.11, 10.12, 10.13, and beta3 10.14Worked with Adobe Enterprise support and they have acknowledge it to be a bug in the user interface.

ICML export doesn't include <HyperlinkPageDestination> elements
(Affects all versions of InDesign that support ICML export)
Export the story in the attached document to ICML. Delete the story in InDesign and then re-import the ICML. The Hyperlinks panel shows "The referenced paragraph or text anchor is missing".
This is only a problem for the ICML export of internal links. Hyperlinks to pages in external documents are exported correctly. The information is also correctly stored when saved to IDML.

Links panel sorting
InDesign CC 2018, 13.1 (mac os 10.13.4)
panels: links: panel options: show column: Scale.
Bug:
The sorting function for "Scale" in links panel doesn't work properly.
If I sort by scaling percentages, they list incorrectly.Example: 187 % comes between 21 % and 15 %.
That means it sorts them alphabetically as digits, but should sort them as numbers. Please fix.4 votesHello All,
