Or I try to change the ruler units in the Preferences box: same thing, the drop-down menu will not accept the change from picas to inches. For instance, I try to use the “Multiple Returns to Single Returns” GREP command in the Find/Change dialog box - but the drop-down will not “stay” selected on my selection. For no apparent reason, menus within InDesign will stop responding to my drop-down menu selection. Since upgrading to 2017, I’ve noticed one predominant glitch and I’m curious if anyone else has experienced this.

You can use the arrow keys to make a selection within the drop down menu, but this is not a great work around, especially when you have a ton of saved greps to choose from. Hi Julianne, we too are struggling with drop down items not sticking. I’d love to have it more intuitive and official. Anne-Marie posted a workaround for that in 2006, I believe, using nested styles, but it’s hard to get to for editing, and it got in my way. I’d love to define the basis of a Paragraph Style using a Character Style (an option in Quark since 4.0). And certainly the ability to define a color behind a style is a welcome addition to CC2015, but the workaround posted on to make that a rule is as extreme as it is freakin’ ingenious. By the way, Ventura Publisher could do this in 1986. I’d love to see the ability to have a paragraph style with rules around all four edges of either the width of the text or the column. They save me hours on my newspaper workflow but I’ve developed them with raw, brute force. I’d love to see scripting demystified and a little easier. I’d love to see some more finely grained logic added to Paragraph Styles, recognizing that there are plug-ins that do accomplish these goals.

Put another way, the last time I was excited about an InDesign upgrade was in 2010. I remember being so excited about the CS3 and CS5 releases because they had so many small, thoughtful enhancements that made my life as a newspaper/magazine/book designer so much easier.
