libCC remain path aspect vs PDF like
When incorporating an object from a library, (but the same behavior occurs if the file is placed) the Object lose all the appeareance and is imported as expanded wth some "clipping path added"
however, the Appearance information is still in the file because if you ask to edit the original all is fine.
Could it be possible to add a preference in the "embed" menu to ask if you embed as "Pdf" or as "AICB" the same dialog you can have in Saving Clipboard Prefs ?
This could be really valuable.
Thanks

Hi Jean-Michel,
Press the Option key while dropping graphics from CC Library to artboard in Illustrator to bring the ‘original’ AI content. This will directly embed the graphic. Without the Option key it places the graphic, and all AI files get placed as PDF, hence the issues.
Does the Option key work for you?
Thanks,
Yogesh

So, can you take care of this? Or do I need to post a new feature request?

************, yes this only works if you wanted to embed the graphics. There is no way to place-link a .ai file into an Ai document. Hence the PDF. The request would be to allow placing .ai in documents.

Hi,
Ok, it works but using this option, you embed always the graphics.
In my vision, the goal was to use keep the link to the Library as long as it is possible. (to optimize file size and keep the benefits of instances)
and this option could be used only when it is mandatory to embed the graphic in the AI format instead than PDF.Does it make sense?
Thanks
Jean-Michel
