Blending tool undo
Whenever I undo one shape inside the blended elements, it doesn't go back to the initial position. Instead, it stops mid way and the CMD+Z button moves it back 1 pixel closer to the initial position. Moving the object is also a challenge where the second I release the mouse click, it shifts further away.

The Eraser Tool sometimes deletes entire blocks of geometry
The Eraser Tool, even with a size of 0 pt (but also with 1 or 2 pt), sometimes deletes entire blocks of geometry, sometimes draws a gap in the geometry (as it should always do). This bug has always existed, you have never fixed it. Often, to make partial deletions of the geometry, I have to use other software (such as CorelDRAW).

Problem with Eyedropper tool on text
Illustrator 30.0 on Mac Ventura 13.7.8
When I try to use the Eyedropper tool on a text, it only samples the object's top Appearance, not the text's at Character level.
In the sample video, the characters should become grey, with the text object having a white outline behind. But you can see it only picks up the white outline and not the character colour.
My Eyedropper tool is set to pick up everything (all boxes are ticked).

Generative Expand ruins stroked linework
Please fix the Generative Expand. It ruins your linework and makes random lines on object. It becomes impossible to work around because even the scissor tool cant cut it since there is a ton of nodes.
It also gets complicated with the shape builder as that tool ruins the stroke weights.
Lastly the stroke / fill thing it keeps swapping it to fill instead of stroke then you have to re put the lineweights every single time.
Some of the parts of the lines even get removed.2 votes -
Sometimes Alt-dragging a Variable Stroke Width width handle results in the other side of the handle snapping to 0
Sometimes Alt-dragging a Variable Stroke Width width handle results in the other side of the handle snapping to 0. Very unexpected behavior.
I have not as yet found a repeatable test case for this, perhaps now that I've posted this bug I will try to isolate it the next time this happens to be and add it here :)

拡大縮小
バージョン30.0で拡大縮小ツールで「パターンの変形」のみを行おうとした際、ダイアログ上で「オブジェクトの変形」「パターンの変形」の両方のチェックが入った状態（もしくはオブジェクトの変形からパターンの変形に変更）から、「オブジェクトの変形」のチェックを外して「パターンの変形」のチェックのみにして実行するとパターンの変形が何度やっても実行されない。（最初から「パターンの変形」のみにチェックが入っていた場合のみパターンの変形が実行される）
場合によっては、その後のオブジェクトの拡大縮小も挙動がおかしくなるので再起動が必要になる。
なお、他の変形ツールに関しては未確認。2 votes -
Setting Opacity twice wrongly affects the CMYK values on effects underneath
(2019 Mac Pro - Sequoia 15.6.1 - Illustrator 29.8.2)
Draw a box, fill it with 25% black, apply an effect such as Blur through the Appearance Panel.
On a new layer, draw another box which intersects the previous box. Make this new box 50% Magenta. Set it to Darken.
Select the newly created layer and change the blending mode on the entire layer. Set it to Darken as well.
View Separations Preview. Black only. You will notice that the MAGENTA box has intensified the BLACK plate in the areas where it intersects.
This happens when choosing any CMYK color, not…

Color changes (and other things) do not change until I click on the page somewhere in Illustrator 2026
As in the title. I cannot see the changes I've made (fill color, stroke color, or fill/stroke flip) until I click on the page. Also after working on a file for some time, the "info" data stops working. i.e. the height and width (of an object) show zero instead of a number value. Restarting the app fixes it, but only temporarily.
Note: these same things are happening on 2 (completely different computers). One is a high-powered Alienware Area 51 desktop, the other is a high-powered Dell.

Overprint lines not working in Illustrator 2026 (v. 30)
The overprint feature is not working (both lines and fills). Not only does it not work with the Separation Preview in the app, but when output to PDF it is confirmed to not work. Inks that are indicated to overprint are knocking out.

BUG: Settings for number of decimals in SVG exports resets after restarting Illustrator
Illustrator isn’t saving the number of decimals that has been changed in the "Save as..." and "Export as..." dialog boxes. When quitting Illustrator, the value resets to 1, which isn’t an ideal default setting.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a new file in Illustrator.
- Open "Export as..."
- Select "SVG (SVG)" as the file format.
- Change the number of decimals to a value other than 1.
- Click OK to export the file.
- Quit and reopen Illustrator.
- When you open the Export dialog again, the value for Number of Decimals is reset to 1.
Expected behavior:
The last used value for the number…

"Use Artboards" unchecked and still exporting artboards for SVG files
For PNG files, artboard is exported on first save, then saves correctly on the second attempt for whatever reason. Not so lucky with SVG. Having to manually export each one, open in a new window, crop the artboard, repeat...

Documents preview not updated properly in Indesign
When I save an Illustrator file, import it into Indesign, then make changes to the file, save it again and update the link in Indesign, some parts are not updated in the preview (see attached image). This doesn't happen every time, seemingly at random.
I have resolved this by first saving as an older version and then again as latest version, but that's not a real solution.
Somebody told me to uncheck 'Save in background' in settings, this also solved the problem but again, is not a real solution.I have this problem simultaneously with the (already known) problem where…

Swatch panel and gradient panel won't open at the same time. Can't change color of gradients.
Just upgraded to Illustrator 30.0 and now the swatch panel and gradient panel won't open at the same time. Can't change color of gradients. I've tried resizing, stretching... everything. This wasn't a problem until the upgrade to 30.0.

2026 converted RGB file to CMYK, won't go back
Got a new computer, downloaded Illustrator vs 2026, and signed in to Illustrator. I opened a file, started working on it, and noticed all my colors in the color panel were CMYK. The overall color setting was still RGB in the title at the top, and under color settings. Not only was everything in the color panel CMYK, but all of the options to change that were greyed out. Somehow, opening up a 2025 file in 2026 corrupted my color setting at the panel level and wouldn't let me change them back. I haven't disassembled my old PC, so I…
