Not sure of the exact measurements but it seems like you can only get the arrowhead about 20% bigger or smaller than the default, no matter what percentage you put in. I've gone back to lines and triangles when I need something that looks different.

Hi,
This looks more like a feature modification request.
I am therefore moving this to the “Feature Request” section.Please keep adding your use-cases.

Once a group has been moved/copied & pasted from one layer to another it should "forget" the original layers the elements came from.

OK, imagine you're making a map and have everything on two layers: "Shapes" and "Text". Text is at the top. You make information bubbles that are always on top of everything else, which consist of a circle and a text box over it, on their respective layers. Group them so they are always moved together.
We then later on make another layer called "Images" at the top and place images on it. We want the images to be on top of the shapes, but now they cover the information bubbles, which are supposed to be the topmost things. So create another layer called "Bubbles", select all the bubbles and drag them to the "Bubbles" layer which is now the top layer.
The important thing here is that I have moved these grouped objects to a new layer, so in my mind they have been re-homed.
Later on I decide that I want the proportions of the bubbles to be different, with a bigger circle but the text the same. I ungroup the objects, and any of them that are on top of an image now disappear because they have gone back to their original layers.
My suggestion is that once a grouped object has been moved to a new layer, the objects it consists of should permanently be moved there and given the stack order that it had based on the previous layer assignments.

This topic could be merged with 35869567-allow-negative-indentation as it's essentially the same thing.

Being able to organise them in folders would also be great!

We have released an update for InDesign CC2019 (v 14.0.1) which contains fixes for some key issues. If you are not already on 14.0.1 (build 209), then we recommend you to update to latest version.
If you still face this issue even after updating, please send the following information to santalwa@adobe.com :
Reproducible Steps –
• Error snapshot or video recording of the issue.
• Is the issue related to a specific document(s)/asset(s)? If yes, can you please share the document(s)/asset(s) with us? Please package the entire document(To package the document, Go to File → Package)
• Does trashing InDesign Preferences and Cache help resolve the issue? Please take a backup of the same before trashing them.Adobe InDesign team

I'm finding this happening as well: with a brand new document. If you alt-drag a single page it will duplicate. If you alt-drag two or more pages it moves them, even though it first shows the + symbol on the cursor to indicate you are duplicating them. This is on version 15.1.2.

I just upgraded to 15.1.2 to test this out, and it still doesn't work. If I option drag a single page, it will duplicate the page to where the thin vertical bar indicates. If I have more than one page selected, it will actually *move* the pages there instead of duplicating them, which is definitely not what I want (given I am holding down the alt key). Unless this is a Windows-only bug, and it's working fine on Mac.

People keep bringing up the option/alt-drag to duplicate a page to a specific location, but this only works for a *single* page. If you have more than one page highlighted, alt+drag doesn't work.
I do a lot of double-sided divider tabs, so I always want to duplicate them in sets. I need to alt-drag the first one and then do the same for the second. I can't do them at the same time.

There are some comments below that indicate people don't understand what we're asking for. I have set up a shortcut in InDesign that is essentially "transform again", which is fine in certain circumstances. Someone mentioned ctrl + alt + U which is step and repeat, sure, that's also good.
What we mean though is what F4 does in Word. If you apply a style to some text, you can click on more text and press F4: the same style gets applied. You can change the colour of something: click something else, F4, same colour. Insert a table row: F4, you get another, and another. It repeats the last thing that you did, and it's such a time saver. Perform action, then click-F4-click-F4-click-F4.
Take applying text styles. In InDesign yes, you can apply a keyboard shortcut. But it's modifier key + keypad so it's always two hands. Click, *hands off mouse to keyboard*, apply style. Repeat. And that's if you already have a shortcut key set up. With Word, you can select text, click a style, then click-F4-click-F4 and you're done.
AND it applies to nearly everything you do with formatting, deleting, inserting (some table formatting actions aren't included but that's about it)

In case the latest comments don't make sense, they were in response to an Adobe person marking this as "solved" by suggesting that we could assign a shortcut key to one of the "transform" functions. That part of it seems to have disappeared (or not been part of the conversation here, as it announced itself via an email and a link to response let here).

This isn’t really the same thing. Word can repeat something like “apply that paragraph style” or “insert a table row”. I already have F4 assigned to “transform again individually” or whatever it is so that if I move or resize an object I can repeat it, but it only applies in limited scenarios.

![*Collective Articles.indd @ 100% [GPU Preview] 2018-09-19 14-46-40.png 210 KB](/assets/203886109/*Collective%20Articles.indd%20@%20100%25%20%5BGPU%20Preview%5D%202018-09-19%2014-46-40.png){kind=link}
Most of the time when I go to use this I forget it's paragraph and not character. For me it would be useful to use like Word's highlighter feature. I was going to use it today essentially like a character style to break up a feature list, blocking out some words but no, it applies it to the whole line :(
