  1. アートボード左上の角に丸が表示される / Brush tip shape appears in top-left corner of the artboard

    再現手順
    1. Illustratorを起動して新規ドキュメントを作成する
    2. ブラシパネルでカリグラフィブラシのサムネイルをクリックする
    3. アートボードの左上の角を確認すると、ブラシの先端形状の丸が表示される

    回避策
    - ブラシツールに切り替えてからカリグラフィブラシのサムネイルをクリックすると丸は表示されない
    - 丸が表示された後でも、ブラシツールに切り替えると消える

    一度でもブラシツールに切り替えれば、その後はIllustratorを終了するまで、新たな別のドキュメントを作成してもこの丸は出現しません。

    • MacOS14(Sonoma)+Illustrator2025(29.5)で確認
    • Windowsでも同様の手順で再現するそう
    • これまで再現条件が分からず報告出来なかったが、2022年の時点で既に発生しており、現在まで改善されないままである

    表示が煩わしいのみで特に大きな実害はありませんが、さらに古いバージョンでは発生しなかった不具合です。できるだけ早い解消が望まれます。


    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Create a new document in Illustrator.
    2. In the Brushes panel, click a Calligraphic Brush thumbnail.
    3. A round shape appears in the top-left corner of the artboard.

    Workaround:
    - Switching to the Brush Tool before clicking the brush prevents this.
    - Switching to the Brush Tool after the shape appears will remove it.

    After switching to the Brush Tool once, it won’t appear again during the session.

    Notes:
    - Reproduced on macOS 14 (Sonoma) + Illustrator 2025 (v29.5).
    - Also confirmed…

  4. グループに含まれるテキストの組方向を正確に表示しない

    iMac27inch/i5/32GB mem/1TB SSD/macOS14.7.2
    Illustrator ver.26以降で確認

    Step to Reproduce
    1. 新規ドキュメントにポイントテキストを複数作成する。そのうち、いくつかは縦組みに設定。
    2. すべてのポイントテキストを選択してグループ化する。
    3. ダイレクト選択ツールまたはTツールで縦組みのテキストを選択する。
    4. メニュー:書式→組み方向を選択した際に縦組みテキストを選択しているにもかかわらず横組にチェックが入っている。

    期待する結果
    縦組みのテキストを選択した際には該当メニューで縦組みにチェックマークがついている。

    実際の結果
    縦組みを選択しているにも関わらず横組みにチェックマークがついている。

    この縦組み・横組の表示は選択範囲に複数の状態が含まれた場合にデフォルトの横組が選択されるという挙動になっています。端的に言って、この複数ステートをデフォルトで表示してしまうのも問題です。本来であれば双方にチェックマークがつかない状態で表示するべきところです。
    グループ化されたオブジェクトの一部を選択した場合でもこの組み方向の機能はペアレントの状態を参照しているようです。正確に選択範囲の状態を反映した表示にするべきです。

    EN Translate
    Step to Reproduce
    1. Create several point texts in a new document. Set some of them to vertical type orientation.
    2. Select and group all point texts.
    3. Select the vertical text with the Direct Selection tool or the Text tool.
    4. when selecting Menu: Type-> Type Orientation, the Horizontal checkbox is checked even though the vertical text is selected.

    Expected Result
    When vertical text is selected, a check mark is placed in the vertical menu.

  6. Persistent Toolbar Tooltips

    Tooltips are particularly buggy when using more than one monitor, they tend to persist and keep animating whilst users are attempting to focus on what they are doing within the interface.

  7. Add “...” to the menu items of the modal dialog

    en

    In macOS apps, it is customary to append “...” to menu items that require the user to perform additional actions after selecting the menu item (e.g., modal dialogs). This is found in the Human Interface Guidelines | Apple Developer Documentation.

    ![humaninterfaceguidelines.png](humaninterfaceguidelines.png)

    Illustrator 2025 (29.4) followed this rule, but Illustrator 2025 (29.5) has departed from this rule for a few items.

    • File > Generate Vectors
    • Object > Generate Vectors
    • Object > Gen Shape Fill

    ![menu.png](menu.png)

    The change should be allowed if it is intentional, but seeing that the other items still follow the rules, it…

  8. Object size (width/height) swapped in control bar.

    See attached screenshot. Control bar shows the width and height of the object/rectangle incorrectly. 'Transform' box shows correct info, but control bar swaps the 2 dimensions.

  9. Mouse cursor disappears on Windows 11 Insider Preview

    I opened Illustrator to work on a project and my mouse cursor disappears when I am in the workspace. I can't seem to get it back. It is just an illustrator issue since I can see my cursor fine in other programs.

  10. Color Mixer in Control and Properties panels gets broken after using Tab

    The Color Mixer in Properties and Control works oddly. Here, I try to navigate my fields with Tab, and then drag one slider — boom, it all breaks: sliders vanish, active fields become visually inactive, closing it becomes very hard...

    I feel like it started happening when the generative virus put its tendrils into Ai.

  11. Cursor stays invisible after exiting Presentation mode

    How to reproduce:
    Create a multiple artboard document.
    Enter presentation mode.
    Do not move the mouse.
    Use the left and right arrow keys to view all the art boards.
    Note that windows will make the mouse cursor invisible since you are not using it.
    Press ESC to return to normal viewing/editing mode.
    Now the mouse cursor is invisible.

    Work around: If you go back to presentation mode and wiggle the mouse and press ESC while the mouse is visible then the mouse will be visible in normal screen mode.

  12. [Illustrator 2025, 29.0][Win11 Pro 23H2] No Recent Local Files in the Welcome Screen

    Recent local files and their previews are completely gone from the welcome screen in Illustrator 2025, 29.0.

    Changing the number of visible recent files, restarting the computer, disabling/enabling GPU acceleration and even doing a clean install of Illustrator didn't help.

    As stated in an update at forums, there is a solution.

    A backend fix has been applied. Please restart Illustrator to see if the issue is resolved.

    If it persists, follow these steps:

    1. Close all Adobe apps, including the Creative Cloud desktop app.

    2. Navigate to the following folder location:

    Mac: ~/Library/Caches/Adobe/CCX Welcome folder

    Windows: %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CCX Welcome\

    3. Locate the folder named CCX Welcome and rename it to CCX Welcome.old.

    4. Relaunch the Creative Cloud desktop app, then reopen Illustrator.

    Leave a comment if this resolves the issue or not.

  13. Custom toolbars with plugin tools rearrange themselves alphabetically on launch

    Windows 11, Illustrator 29.3.1
    I use a custom toolbar with the tools I use most frequently (many Astute Graphics plugin tools), arranged in a specific order that I go to with muscle memory. Recently (2 updates ago?), they jumbled up – actually, they arranged themselves alphabetically descending top to bottom – but for my purposes, this is illogically jumbled, and I have to hunt for tools visually; it is very annoying and time-wasting. Then I noticed they were in my proper order again… next day, jumbled. I’ve worked out what is happening. First Illustrator launch of the day… alphabetically jumbled.…

  15. Gray popup about Unpropping appears again and again

    A grey popup appears constantly whenever I am ungrouping things to tell me about ungrouping.
    Nothing in Preferences makes this go away and I see it repeatedly so closing it once doesn't work either. I really don't need training wheels and this should be one simple option to disable all large tooltips, blue popups and gray popups. There are already enough idiosyncrasies and distractions with Illustrator.

  16. Paste in Front shortcut got reassigned to Contextual Task Bar

    For some reason this very important shortcut is now assigned to the Contextual Task Bar.
    Please repair that. Cmd-F goes decennia back, and is very important for experience Illustrator-users.

  17. The name of the missing link gets trimmed from the left side in the file name field in the dialog

    But why the name of the link in File Name field in the dialog gets displayed trimmed from the left side, even though the input has PLENTY of space in my dialog window?
    This behavior is not new.
    I have my guesses that it’s a legacy behavior, to make sure the name is seen on a smaller screen in the smallest dialog... but Ai probably knows the size of the dialog window and can calculate if it fits?

  19. What’s New screen pops up every time I close all documents

    Illustrator wastes my time by making it necessary to close the annoying splash screen whenever I close a document. Really annoying. Please get rid of it or make it optional.

  20. Bottom of Artboard controls entry fields and text descenders cut off

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open a new or existing Illustrator file
    2. Look at the bottom left of the screen where the Artboard controls are
    3. Observe how close the entry fields/text are to the bottom

    Result:
    OBSERVED:
    - The bottom of the entry fields is cut off (see screen shot)
    - Entry fields still work as expected
    - Resizing the window does not fix the issue
    - Happens with main display or on external display

    EXPECTED:
    - Entry fields at bottom to not be cut off (bottom outline missing)
    - Descenders of text to not be touching bottom of…
