Indesign 19.xx does not import layers from illustrator

Well, elements on sublayers of Illustrator are visible in a placed *.ai file in InDesign.

It's only that the sublayers could not be managed from a placed *.ai file.

Adobe Illustrator Layers panel:

Hi @cristian29461823gimy ,

are you sure that the layers you want to see are indeed "normal" layers and not "sublayers"?

InDesign is not able to see into sublayers as far as I can see. A sample of screenshots below:

Adobe Illustrator file Layers panel open:

InDesign imported *.ai file with all layers visible it can see in the placed file:

You can access to the imported file layers in the layers options in the object menu, but it has never been possible to display them in the layers panel.
