Why the strikethrough & highlight functions are hidden?
Why are the strikethrough & highlight functions of share for review hidden?
Hi. I was really looking forward to the ability to use the Share for Review feature. I find it an immense help for reviewing and proofreading publications.
But when I start using it, the strikethrough & highlight functions do not appear in the browsers.
However, looking in more detail, I see that the options are there, but they are hidden.
I attach images
Can you tell me how to solve this problem?
I am at your disposal for any questions.

colors desaturating and layer effect discrepancy
InDesign version 18.4
Make indesign file with layer effects (multiply, overlay, etc.) in CMYK. Click Share > Send for Review. Result in the browser is desaturated and layer effect is not working as displayed in working file.
The file that is previewed in Share for Review site is both desaturated and displaying the layer effects differently than my working file. I even exported my working file and it exported as expected. My document is in CMYK as it is a print piece. I have not had trouble with the preview before. It has always displayed accurately…

All resolved comments disappeared
Overnight all resolved comments and their respective users disappeared from the Review panel. When switching the filter no comments are shown anymore and i can't get them back in neither scenario (logging in the CC online and looking in the review link, looking in InDesign itself and so on). Is there any chance to get those resolved comments back? They haven't been deleted neither, either the client or I resolved those through both ways and the day before everything was there and viewable with the respective filter. Without them it's nearly impossible to keep a backlog of all the changes.

[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…9 votesHi,

Working Together with Other Designers
I work in a team of 4 designers, and on occasion we have to cover for each other and finish/amend something someone else has started. We can share for review with other departments to add their amendments fine, however if someone else opens the .indd file on our shared server they can't see the comments. Is there not a way to make the comments save to the document itself instead of the account?

Adobe InDesign published document
When viewing a document for review, if you scroll too quickly and then reverse the direction of the scroll, it can get caught into a scrolling loop that I cannot stop. It scrolls up and down incredibly quickly on it's own. I have to exit the document and then come back in. Happens in Chrome and Firefox.

Table second row incorrect spacing by default
After including the table in the InDesign, I noticed that the second row bottom and top spacing gets automatically adjusted even if I try to adjust it manually or even after deleting the second row, the spacing on the second row is not showing up correctly. Please check attached screenshot for your review - check the second and third row spacing. Also, please check the table border lines as it is confusing.

Add a Back Button to Navigate Recently Changed Items in Find/Change
I frequently use the Find/Change feature in InDesign for text and style replacements. However, it would be very helpful to have a "Back" button or feature to navigate to the last changed instance, especially when working on long documents.
Currently, the only workaround is manually using Undo (Ctrl+Z/Cmd+Z), but this isn't ideal for reviewing multiple changes. A "Go Back" option would enhance productivity and reduce errors by allowing users to quickly review recent changes.
Thank you for considering this request!

QuickLook preview?
Almost every file on my computer is a Space Bar press away from a quick glance to review it's content. Many even allow for scrolling through the pages of a pdf or presentation, but InDesign still only displays and icon. Even with "Always save Preview Images with Document" selected.
I've seen this issues being discussed back to 2007 and it still hasn't been addressed beyond "use a 3rd party"... that's a terrible answer to missing features.1 voteThis feature is available in the latest version of InDesign - InDesign 2023.

Power Efficiency
Since I've moved to working remotely entirely, I've noticed how quickly using several Adobe programs burns through my laptop battery. I'm running a brand new 16" Macbook Pro with the latest MacOS Catalina version, and I'm lucky if I get an hour and a half of battery life while running InDesign and Illustrator at the same time. When I review what is using the most battery life, my Mac lists InDesign, Illustrator, and Core Sync as the main culprits.
Now, I understand that these programs at times are fairly graphically intensive, but the battery life I'm getting is absymal, and…

Drag-Duplicating using Alt/Opt key does not work if key is pressed after dragging
I am working on Mac OS Big Sur v 11.3.1 using Indesign CS 2020 16.2.1.
I cannot duplicate images using the command option shift key.
I have also noticed that holding the shift key down to proportionately size images is also not working. Could you advise if this issue can be solved? I have read the thread posted in 2020 and it said it was under review. I tried the workaround suggested changing live Screen drawing to "never" but this has not changed anything. Please help! Thanks.1 vote -

Tab order window is not resizable
I design a lot of long forms inside of InDesign. Part of this process is getting the tab order correct. The Tab Order window only displays 9 rows and is not resizable. This makes at a glance review of the tab order impossible.
Additionally, dragging and dropping rows above/below each other is broken. The blue line that signifies where I am about to drag something to does not always match up with where the drop actually happens. Sometimes it can be above another field.
Similarly, if I move a block of rows at once, the view of the window will…

Outer Edge Bleed Option for Facing Pages
Description:
InDesign currently applies identical bleed settings to all four edges of each page, even in facing-page layouts.
For publications such as magazines, catalogs, and books, the inner (spine) edge bleed between facing pages is unnecessary and can cause issues in visualization, export, and imposition.Feature Request:
Add an option in the Document Setup and Export Settings to enable Outer Edge Bleed mode.In this mode, bleed is applied only to the top, bottom, and outer edges of each spread.
The inner edge between facing pages would have no bleed, resulting in a cleaner, more accurate PDF output that reflects…1 vote -
Where is the link to online Files in Creative Cloud Desktop?
Up until recently, when I shared InDesign files, I was able to open the CC Desktop app, go to Files > Files, and there would be a direct link to my online files. That very convenient feature has disappeared completely. My workaround has been to add an internet shortcut to my Windows Explorer files.
I have been told that it was removed because of problems on the backend with InDesign, but if that were the case, then I would have also been able to access that direct link in CC Desktop for files shared from Photoshop or Illustrator. It's bad…

Crash when "fitting frame to content" on an inline-anchored textframe (inline or above line)
Hi,
Last week i noticed that InDesign crashes when I fit the textframe to its contents, when that textframe is anchored as "text" inside another textframe (anchor-option: incline or above line) when it is not separated by paragraph breaks or whitespaces.I have a file that has one textframe for the main column. In it I placed several smaller textframes with more than one column as textelements.
I didn't separate them by a space or linebreak. When fitting one of the smaller frames to its content by double clicking the lower reference point in the middle to get rid of…6 votesThis issue is fixed. No crash in latest InDesign version.
