There are even ways in which it seems to get more resources than the others (in a good way). I am puzzled at the characterization of InDesign as a "red-headed stepchild." It does not at all seem to me that InDesign is neglected compared to other Adobe apps. I also think there are significant technical reasons why InDesign doesn't have a dark UI, relating to its transition to Mac OS's Cocoa API, which is still not there are of CS6, but is probably coming soon in the next version.

In InDesign, where you're typically laying out items destined for white paper, the alleged benefit is much diminished).Īnyhow, there are two sides to the story. (Additionally, the apps that deal primarily with photos and video are much more likely to benefit from a dark UI.
