Hi,
1. The majority of InDesign Scripting threads were merged and archived at first.
2. After a month or so, InDesign Scripting re-appeared as its own topic in the new forums.
3. David K. started un-archiving older threads last week, a few at a time, very slowly and by hand, because of odd server-side limitations.
4. There is no “Direct Link” to the Scripting Topic at this time, but this ought to be fixed with the current sprint from the forums team. The internal bug number is: ALFD-1530While we wait for ALFD-1530, there is a backdoor way to find direct links to topics. You can follow a topic then look at your follows… or just use these links:
• InDesign Scripting: https://community.adobe.com/t5/forums/filteredbylabelpage/board-id/indesign/label-name/scripting
• InDesign SDK: https://community.adobe.com/t5/forums/filteredbylabelpage/board-id/indesign/label-name/sdk
• InDesign Server Developers: https://community.adobe.com/t5/forums/filteredbylabelpage/board-id/indesign/label-name/server%20developersThanks

Fix for this issue is available in the latest InDesign version - InDesign 2023. The fix should solve most of the issues that were seen earlier.
A new option "Honor Text Indents in addition to Text Wrap" is introduced in Preferences > Composition dialog. It is turned ON by default for new documents created in ID2023. For documents created in previous InDesign versions, this option is turned off by default - which can be turned ON to see the improved behavior.
Please let us know how the fix is working for you.

Hi All,
This indeed a great suggestion. I wanted to understand a little more about this request.
1. The way this request is described its majorly about figuring out how to change the various text attributes in a single step rather than having to change multiple styles to make that happen. It would helpful if you can mention which all attributes you all would want to be dependent on the baseline (space before/after, size, leading any other).
2. Which kind of documents (magazines, brochures, books etc.) do you see this to be more important for you.
3. Wouldn’t a similar method (not sure if we could base it on baseline though!!) for changing the layout also help, if you could define the sizes of objects in relation to the page size. Do you think extending this feature to the layout also makes sense.
4. If you can share some files…Simon Paterson supported this idea · -

I can confirm that the workaround by Mwvceu works in High Sierra for InDesign 2020.
There is also another workaround that will stick after restart: override an existing language’s files with your own.
I replaced the en_CA files with my own language files, renaming my own language files to match. Now, when I select English: Canadian as the language for some text, I get the spelling and hyphenation of my language (English: Australian).
Of course, this is not ideal since all the styles in the document have the wrong language attached. Regardless, I am getting the hyphenation required for consistency across InDesign versions, platforms and workstations and this is more important than the practically cosmetic issue of having the wrong language name.
A more robust solution would be for Adobe to include a small utility in the InDesign application folder:
1) select the new language code they would like to use or allow user to enter a valid language and country code
2) allow user to select .aff, .dic and hyph.dic files for addition
3) copy the files to the correct location and update the code signatures
It is disappointing that this issue still exists for the most recent version of InDesign. It has been two years since Adobe has been aware of the issue.
