Error css classes in svg export
In version before 26.2, applying a graphic style to a simple object (rectangle, line, etc.) allowed the name of that graphic style to be used as a CSS class in the an exported SVG. So a graphic style of "thick-outline" would become a CSS class called ".thick-outline" when the SVG file was exported with internal CSS.
Now, a useless class called "cls-1" is applied to the illustrator object instead, making re-use of overriding of the style in the SVG difficult. This is a regression that makes the usefulness of the SVG export feature limited.

Freeform Gradient / Gradiente Livre - Problemas com objeto expandido
[HELP] [Free Gradient] Guys, I have a problem that I can't solve. I created a vector icon that is joined and expanded. When I apply Gradient Free it appears normal. But when I resize the object it is "losing the gradient". I recorded the screen. I've tried everything here, do you know how to solve it? The editable file is there: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aP40Rzv_zUG0MZSqTp16ZfJsnRlMLPME/view?usp=sharing
Thank you guys

White-to-black gradients in opacity masks don’t go fully transparent
For opacity masks, 100% White should represent a 100% absence of masking and 100% Black should represent 100% masking (like in Photoshop).
The current system in Illustrator seems very unintuitive and flawed – a basic white to black gradient does not even totally obscure an image/object at one end of the gradient.
It shouldn't be the case that you then have further reduce the opacity of the gradient colours to achieve a standard gradient effect.
6 votesMake sure you use RGB black instead of Grayscale black in your gradients when making opacity mask in a RGB-based document to avoid shallow blacks and not fading to a complete zero.
More on that in the comments.
If you happen to have the same problem, please still add a vote to the request, to track statistics.

Using a sublayer as a layer mask is broken
Please open the file attached and watch the video.
Here is what happens, try to replicate it:- The document has a Layer 1 and it has a sublayer — Layer 2, which has one rectangle in it
- If you select the Layer 1, the Make/Release Clipping mask button enables — click it
- Notice that Ai underlines both Layer 2 AND <Rectangle>, as if they are both are clipping masks
- If you click it again, everything is OK. But instead, select the Layer 2 and click the button after
- See how Ai still shows Layer 2 underlined (bug #1)

インストール時に同梱されるStartup Scriptのファイル名称が更新されていない
OS macOS10.15.7
バージョン Illustrator ver.26.0Illustratorをインストールした際にバンドルされるStartup Scriptである「/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CC/Illustrator 2022/illustrator-20.0.jsx」ですが、このファイル名が数バージョン前から更新されていません。
これはAdobe Bridge CCにおけるStarup Scriptの読み込みに影響を与えます。直近の2021と2020に関して書きますが、この2つはBridge起動の際にコンフリクトを起こし読み込まれません。対処方法
1.ファイル名の是正
Startup Script内の各ファイル名を変更します。Illustrator 2021内には「illustrator-20.0」フォルダと「illustrator-20.0.jsx」ファイルが存在しますが、これらをそれぞれ
illustrator-21.0
illustrator-21.0.jsx
とします。
同様に、Illustrator 2022内「illustrator-20.0」フォルダと「illustrator-20.0.jsx」を
illustrator-22.0
illustrator-22.0.jsx
とします。
また、ファイル内のXML部分もIllustratorでは全て同一の文面となっています。これはBridgeに読み込まれた場合に全て同じ表示となり、バージョンの特定が不可能になります。
これは、以下のように「dc:title」部分を以下のようにすべきでしょう。<ScriptInfo xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xml:lang="ja_JP">
<dc:title>Adobe Illustrator CC 2022/dc:title
<dc:description>このスクリプトを使用して、他のアプリケーションと Adobe Illustrator CC 2022 を通信させることができます。/dc:description
</ScriptInfo>以上の処理でBridgeがStartup Scriptを正常に読み込むようになります。
6 votesIllustrator 製品版フィードバックへのご協力ありがとうございます。
ご報告いただきました「../Startup Scripts CC/Illustrator 2022/」 内の「illustrator-20.0」フォルダ名と「illustrator-20.0.jsx」ファイル名についての問題を macOS と Windows にて確認いたしました。
「illustrator-20.0.jsx」ファイル冒頭のビルド情報には、「@@@BUILDINFO@@@ “illustrator-26.0.jsx”」と記述されていますので、正しいファイル名は「illustrator-26.0.jsx」と思われます。
従いまして、フォルダ名も「illustrator-26.0」になると思われます。また、ファイル内部の XML部分の「dc:title」、「dc:description」のバージョン記述ですが、製品名から「CC」は削除されておりますので、「Adobe Illustrator 2022」になると思われます。
担当エンジニアにフィードバックし、どのように修正されるか確認できましたら、こちらでご報告いたします。
今後ともよろしくお願いいたします。

BUG: View Grid (Dots 1px) Freezes Illustrator
Using a document grid using dots in small intervals (10px or 1 px intervals) makes Illustrator super slow or even stops working.
Bug appeared in 25.3.1 and is still present in 25.4.1. Tested on multiple Macs (Catalina + Big Sur).

Dragging a gradient slider stop changes the opacity of other stops on the slider
Hi all.
Since I was asked by one of the Adobe employees, here's my post.
Windows 10.I am getting seriously miffed. After using Illustrator ever since the nineties I can no longer do what I need so, so often: duplicating a color stop in a gradient while keeping the other stops as they are.
Say I have the following:
Stop 1 - position 0 - Opacity 0
Stop 2 - position 25 - Opacity 100
Stop 3 - position 75 - Opacity 100
Stop 5 - position 100 - Opacity 0I need a zero opacity stop on position…

Add Bleed setting / reading value in Illustrator JavaScript
I checked illustrator JavaScript Scripting Reference
In 2017, only the document bleeding documentbleedoffsetrect can be set, but the bleeding size that has been set in the document cannot be obtained. Is it because the document is incomplete or this method is not provided? Now how can I get the bleeding size of the current document. thank you!Examples code:
//set bleed
docPreset.documentBleedOffset = [10, 10 10,10];But there is no way to get the value that has been set

Scripting window keeps appearing and no way to remove it
Uninstalling/Reinstalling does not remove prompt. Starting appearing after most recent update to with the new ipad features. Going back to older version, the window doesn't appear.
6 votesThis issue is happening due to a security feature added in Illustrator to inform the user if any external application tries to execute a script in Illustrator.
Solution: Update your Logitech options app to the latest version – https://www.logitech.com/en-in/product/options
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/fix-scripting-error.html
We heard from some users that above solution is not working for them, we are investigating this issue. Meanwhile users can try the below workaround
Create a JSX file with the following content:
app.preferences.setBooleanPreference(“ShowExternalJSXWarning”, false);
Save the above JSX file. Now, go to File > Scripts > Other Script, and choose the newly saved jsx file.This will suppress the warning dialog and run the script.

Blue is now purple
When selecting a vibrant blue with the color-picker it shows it correctly and when it is applied it looks purple. (the color's HEX is correct though)
This also happens when I drag&drop an image that has vibrant blue colors in it.
Any ideas why this is happening?

GPU Preview not available (grayed out) after editing artboard
With newest version of illustrator the GPU acceleration and GPU-Preview fails in some files. To test it i have created a blank document and the GPU preview works. But when I edit the artboard, the GPU preview is turned off at that moment and cannot be reactivated. Reset the Illustrator-Settings to default doesn't fix it.
Illustrator 25.2, MacPro2013, GPU AMD FirePro D700, Monitor 2560x1600Pixel, Wacom-Tablet, MacOs Catalina and Mojave testet.

"View using GPU" greyed out since Illustrator 2021
Since we have updated to Illustrator 2021, on one of our machines (Mac mini 2018) "View unsing GPU" (CMD+E) is greyed out and can’t be activated. GPU IS activated in the Illustrator Preferences! Using Illustrator 2020, this function works as usual.
An other glitch, that we noticed on both of our machines (the 2018 mini and a 2019 iMac): When opening a document in Illustrator 2021, the window turns black for a moment until the document is shown. This does not really cause any problems, it is just strange and does not occure with Illustrator 2020.

New update v25.1 is extremely buggy
With this new update I get the 'spinning beachball' constantly while trying to zoom in or out of the artboard.
Also - I have multiple objects with clipping masksI'm seeing unprecidented levels of glitches and visual artifacts all over the place that appear/disappear/reappear when zooming in and out. It's nearly unusable in this state!6 votes
