PLEASE INCREASE THE USER INTERFACE FONT SIZE - My eyesight is suffering!
I have tried to increase the zoom size to increase the overall font size when I am working on InDesign and it is still too small! My eyesight really hurts, even after the adjustments. Note: The adjustment works with Illustrator, so I am not sure why Indesign cannot do the same thing. I am so tired of the tiny font size.

Comment pins move in spread with content
At the moment, pins on content in a story do not move with that text if the text ends up being pushed onto another page. This means we end up with seemingly random pins floating on the page.
Please allow pins to remain bound to their original location as text moves and flows into other pages.

"comp_core_log" folder is created
- Adobe InDesign 16.2.1.102
- When the component information dialog is displayed for the first time after launching InDesign.
- Just the component information dialog is displayed.
- An empty folder named "compcorelog" is created on the desktop.
This may not be a bug, but deleting an empty folder every time I check the document history is a bit annoying.

Unable to Rename Items Within a Layer
Using Adobe InDesign Version 16.2.1
I used to be able to click on the name of an item within a layer to be able to rename it. I am no longer able to do this. If I click the layer, it flashes once to allow me to change them name but immediately goes back to being normal. It will not allow me to change the name anymore. I never had trouble with this before.
I am able to change the name of the actual layer by double clicking it and renaming it in the "Layer Options" pop-up box but there…

InDesign not exporting chunks of tags
Happening in multiple documents. Some of these documents were originally created by other people and some documents I have created from scratch.
Set up indd file for accessibility. Everything done correctly: all text boxes linked, all tags applied, articles created, articles have "Use for Tagging Order in Tagged PDF" checked. And yet, whole pages of the document are not tagged at all in the pdf.
I go over the said pages with a fine tooth comb and there is nothing I can see that would stop them from exporting tags. Only solution I've found is to recreate the text box…

Indesign is very again now very Sluggish. But getting very annoying Read Only Save issues when working with Books and single files over a network. Only remedy is to save to Desktop and replace files. This is potentially very dangerous and could create very expensive mistakes.

We’ve concluded our investigation and came up with the finding: Either the issue is fixed in the latest release of InDesign or the issue was intermittent in nature at the time of its reporting and is not reproducible now.
We recommend you upgrade to the latest version of InDesign 2023(v18.2.1.455) as it is more robust and contains a lot of bug fixes.
We seek your support in our continual effort to improve InDesign.

opacity lines bug
Is this a bug or it's something I messed up? See the image to watch what it's happening when I change oppacity in a graphic. When exported no lines are visible, it's only in the previsualization.

InDesign links and Box Drive
This appears to be an issue only with InDesign and Box Drive.
Steps to reproduce:
1. In InDesign, link to an Illustrator file or PDF with multiple artboards, layers, or pages from the Box Drive folder.
2. Place the file and select a single artboard or page.
3. Save, close, and re-open the file.Result:
The linked file will no longer update. Perpetually needs updating even though the file hasn't changed.
The workaround is to save the linked file to Adobe Libraries.Expected:
The file link should show that it is updated in the links panel.

turn off Touch workspace!
Can Adobe PLEASE stop making the Touch workspace compulsory every time the app launches. Not all users want this. We didn't ask Adobe to turn off our usual interface and replace it with a Touch version.
When we have to go through the mandatory 'hey this is new examples' EVERY TIME just to get into the app, only to have to turn it off by choosing "essentials" (top right) EVERY TIME we launch the app, it becomes a major pain.
Who on earth at Adobe throught this would be a good idea? Surely this is just a bug? Why isn't…

InDesign jpg Export
When I export a jpg from InDesign (16.1) (it doesn't matter if I export it in low or high resolution) the exported jpg shows some "glitches". This error occours only if I export pixel images. I can fix this when i copy the content from the InDesign file into a Photoshop file and eyport it from there… but this workaround is pretty annoying.

Multi-state objects not working correctly
I'm having problems with multi state object not working as they should.
Sometimes its fine others not.
I've attached a video of the problem.It happens when you use buttons to change the state. It works for a while and gradually deteriorates. The state can show then you roll off the button and it reverts. As if a r'roll-off' state is in play. Eventually the multi-state target disappears altogether.
Its happening in different documents and in Indesign 2020 and 2021.
Colleagues don't seem to have problem so could need to reinstall. But wondered if you could shed any light on…
