SVG Text Export - multilayer bug
I am having an issue with text on a path and after SVG export the code shows the text now broken to multiple layers - this does not translate appropriately to web. This happens specifically if the text path is an angle interval of 45 degrees; intervals of 90 degrees work fine, all other degrees break this text path apart during export.
I am wondering if there is a way around this, or a different manner in which I should place text so that it may still be placed at a specific angle but remain all on the same layer…

Issues with using Assets Export in Isolation mode
If you enter the isolation mode of any objects and try to export any artboard by using Assets Export, it will eventually generate the wrong assets. However, if you exit the Isolation mode and try again to the same process, it will be all fine.

SVG paste truncating curves
Pasting SVG seems a bit broken. I have 1778 curves that I've copied from Rhino 3D WIP (it copies as SVG). I paste it to Illustrator, and Most of the curves automatically change to straight. Not only that, but it's automatically merging some of the points that are close together.
This leads me to believe that Illustrator is rounding the points lower than it should.
Enter Inkscape. I pasted there, and it's fine. I wanted to check to see if it was a failure of Rhino. So copied from Inkscape and paste to Illustrator... same issue.

Background Save does not work
Background Save does not work in Illustrator unless very specific conditions are met (must be a PDF-compatible AI file). Many users prefer to work with PDF switched off - and background save should also work when saving the file as a PDF document. It's basically a half-finished feature and should work under all circumstances and conditions.

Save as SVG destroys <path>
Attached is a very simple SVG drawing (rendered by MathJax) of a path representing the letter k (in math mode). It loads and renders fine in AI 24.2.3 on WIndows 10. But when I save it, I get the second attached file, which also has a path but a very different-looking one (unrecognizable). Presumably a bug in the SVG export engine?

Transparent PNG exporting fine but gives black background when importing
I used Illustrator 24.1.1 to export transparent PNG images. I can use these images in other programs and as web images but when I want to use them in Illustrator again it opens with a black background. I've tried to copy and paste the images, I've tried to place it and even to open it and then drag it to my workspace. Nothing works. I'm using Windows 10.

When importing PSD files with layers into AI, if you 'outline', masks get deleted and transparency made 100%
When importing PSD files containing smart objects into AI, the masks get deleted and opacity reverts to 100% when you create outlines (and it is really dangerous cos I only export to AI as a last step before i print, so this can be easy to miss!!!!).
You can rasterize smart objects before exporting them as a work around, but that's not a great solution really, and means you are best creating a copy of the layer if you don't want to lose fidelity.

save change
I opened an existing Illustrator .ai file. Changed the colour of an object's stroke. Saved. Closed. Then I noticed the change was not there.
Repeated several times. Kept trying to make the change and command-s.
I could see the colour change when I changed the value, but saving did nothing. I noticed that after making the change, the red circle at the top left of the window did not get a black dot to indicate an unsaved change.
I finally did a Save As to make it remember the change. Using Illustrator 24.2 on Mac OS 10.13.62 votes -

Saving a piece in PSD format
Every time i try to export my file into a photoshop format, the 'writing photoshop file' bar doesn't move and illustrator crashes for a couple of minutes then "Photoshop file could not be saved' pops up and the piece doesn't export. Ive tried exporting at lower ppis but that doesn't see to help the issue. The only way I was able to get past it was exporting it as a flat image. Which is quite inconvenient. I didn't have this issue yesterday, when i exported a similar piece. I also re-tried exporting a piece that i was able to do…

Creates "ai2483293123FileName.ai" files
I'm using 24.1.3 of Illustrator and I have come across these files popping up on my network drive. Are these now the "temp" files? Once these files are created, I can not delete them because Finder tells me it is currently being in use.

"Save as" Illustrator bug
Hi. I have the latest 2020 version of Illustrator 24.1.2.
When I press "Command" + "S" it starts to save. Once it is finished saving it used to have an asterisk in the file name that disappears to indicate that it has been saved. The asterisk no longer disappears. It remains.
Then when I close after saving it gives me the attached "save" box, and says that "if I don't save my changes will be lost", but if I click "Command" + "S" and then close without saving it does save.
It makes things very slow. I can't work like…2 votes -
