1. 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. Reset the custom workspace… still jumbled. Shut down Illustrator and restart… tools in the correct order. It only takes a few minutes, but it’s a daily ritual I could do without.

2. Blob Brush strokes often include garbage on turns

   What is wrong with Blob Brush. Even with simplest strokes I often get groups, and these have the main part and tiny pieces of garbage next to it in them.
   Sometimes these are thinnest slivers, sometimes knotted madness, sometimes chunks chomped off...
   If I run simple Pathfinder Add, some of this get 'healed'. Why don’t you do at least this? Why these awfully angular turns and garbled edges happen in the first place? Please study the file.

3. Export As in an action does not save parameters but uses ones from the latest export instead

   When you record 'Export As...' as an action, and use PNG format, the parameters (resolution, anti-aliasing type, background color) are not saved in the action, but are instead just picked up from the last used export.

   Is this not a big problem?
   Aren't actions supposed to be self-contained?
   If one toggles on the 'dialog' icon in the Actions panel (to let us pick settings on the fly), then it's no different from just choosing the Export As... menu item, so what's the point of the action?

   Tested with Win 2024

4. Bullets/Numbering indents don't scale with type objects

   The Indent/First line indent values set in bullets and numbering options don't scale with type objects.

   Normal paragraph indents do scale as expected, so I think this is an oversight or bug.

   Examples:
   1. Area type with text at 12pt, numbering options have an 18pt left indent and -18pt first line indent.
   2. Same object scaled 150% -- type is now 18pt, indents have not changed, meaning left indents for double figures have been forced to the next tab.
   3. Paragraph without bullets/numbers, 12pt, left indent 18pt, first line indent -18pt.
   4. Same object scaled 150%, type is now 18pt, indents are now 27pt.

5. Live text in transparency mask not outlining or showing in font list

   This is a 2 part issue:

   1. If I select all and outline the type the document doesn't outline anything that is in a transparency mask. This is a major flaw that needs to be resolved as has lead to mistakes being printed with default text.
      Select all and outline needs to either include everything within transparency masks or a new command to outline text within these masks needs to be created as a separate option.

   2. A huge worry is I released work last week where I believed everything in the transparency masks had been correctly outlined by individually going in to the mask and outlining type.
      When the printer opened the file, it said it still had live type, however, when I opened the file and checked the find/replace fonts panel, even thought there was live text still within a transparency layer that I had missed, the document said there were no live fonts, see attached image!

6. Conversion from CMYK to Grayscale is wrong

   Converting CMYK values to Grayscale will not give the expected result. C=50 M=50 Y=50 K=50 converts to 100% Grayscale in a CMYK document.
   The same C=50 M=50 Y=50 K=50 converted to R: 92 G: 81 B: 76
   in an RGB document it converts to 67,16% Grayscale, which looks more like the expected Gray value.

7. Clearly inform about specific words "violating" community standards when generating art

   I think when 'one or more words' violate the guidelines, Illustrator should clearly inform us what words these are exactly.
   I guess this can be used for a bad cause, like to gather the database of restricted words... but I don’t understand why normal users should suffer because of this.

8. Locking child objects in a locked top layer is not respected when the layer is unlocked and won’t toggle back

   If I have a layer locked and I click a pale lock icon next to a child item, the lock becomes solid, as if I am overriding the 'the parent is locked' status... but it can’t be toggled back.

   More of it, I expect this overridden status to stay when I unlock the parent — instead it gets dropped.

9. [ExtendScript] Rasterizing group creates two rasterItems

   1. MacOS 15.2.
   2. Adobe Illustrator 29.1
   3. Open demo document (attached) and run script (below).
   4. Should create one RasterItem, but instead creates two.

   Test Script (for use on attached test file):

   
   (function () {
   
       var doc = app.activeDocument;
       var item = doc.groupItems[0];
   
       // Raster Options
       var rasterOpts = new RasterizeOptions;
       rasterOpts.resolution = 192;
       rasterOpts.antiAliasingMethod = AntiAliasingMethod.None;
       rasterOpts.backgroundBlack = false;
       rasterOpts.clippingMask = false;
       rasterOpts.colorModel = RasterizationColorModel.DEFAULTCOLORMODEL;
       rasterOpts.convertTextToOutlines = false;
       rasterOpts.includeLayers = false;
       rasterOpts.padding = 0;
       rasterOpts.transparency = false;
       rasterOpts.convertSpotColors = true;
   
       doc.rasterize(item, item.geometricBounds, rasterOpts);
   
       var count = doc.rasterItems.length;
   
       if (count > 1)
           alert('The rasterization created two images but should have created only one.');
   
   })();
   
   
   

   See also this forum post.

   Edit: Note that the resolution (greater than 191) and the exact position of the group's path items makes a difference.

10. Rounding to integer or transform panel is broken after update to 29.0.1 from 28.X

    Rounding to integer or transform panel is broken (when using arrow keys to correct size of path with locked aspect ratio) after update to 29.0.1 from 28.X.

    Steps to Reproduce

    1.  Create a new path or use an existing one.
    2.  Open the Control/Transform panel.
    3.  With the Constrain Proportions option enabled, use the arrow keys to adjust the Width (W) or Height (H) value.
    

    Expected Result: Proportions remain consistent as values are adjusted.

    Actual Result: Proportions either change unexpectedly or the values jump to different numbers.

11. Add Discretionary Line Break

12. [ExtendScript] PageItem.resize doesn't scale Live Paint strokes

    While scaling Live Paint object correctly scales strokes if done via the UI, it fails to scale strokes if done via the PageItem.resize method in the scripting API.

    MacOS 15.0.1 Illustrator 29.0.

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. New document
    2. Create a Live Paint object including stroked areas.
    3. Select the Live Paint object.
    4. Run the following script:

    var item = app.activeDocument.selection[0];
    item.resize(200, 200, true, true, true, true);
    

    Expected result is that the Live Paint object's stroke widths would double. However they remain the same as before.

13. Very laggy zooming in and out using mouse scroll since versions 28.1

    I'm on Windows 11, using the newly updated AI 29.0. This has been mostly my issue since AI 28.1 onwards. I've been using AI 28.0 without any problems, but I try out every new version to see if the issue will be resolved. I have a good internet connection (700++ Mbps). I think my system has more than the minimum requirements.

    For AI 28.0 - both .AI and AIC (cloud) files can be zoomed in and out using mouse scroller without any problems.

    For AI 28.1 - 29.0 - Locally saved .AI is somewhat laggy. Cloud saved .AIC has a very laggy scroll zoom.

    I have tried resetting the preference and reinstall a couple of times to no avail.

15. [ExtendScript] Cannot change `underline` value of some text ranges.

    We cannot successfully set characterAttribute.underline to false in some textRanges.

    (MacOS 15.0 Adobe Illustrator 28.7.1)

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. New document
    2. Make a text frame with contents "ab"
    3. Set the "b" to a different fontStyle, eg. "italic"
    4. Run the below script, and check the console output.

    Expected Result: all tests PASSED, meaning that the underline can be set to true and then to false successfully.

    Actual result, test B on the "b" fails.

    Script:
    ```
    (function () {

    var doc = app.activeDocument,
        tf = doc.textFrames[0];
    
    var results = ['Results:'];
    
    tf.textRanges[0].characterAttributes.underline = true
    results.push('textRanges[0] test A: ' + (true === tf.textRanges[0].characterAttributes.underline ? 'PASSED' : 'FAILED'));
    
    tf.textRanges[0].characterAttributes.underline = false;
    results.push('textRanges[0] test B: ' + (false === tf.textRanges[0].characterAttributes.underline ? 'PASSED' : 'FAILED'));
    
    tf.textRanges[1].characterAttributes.underline = true;
    results.push('textRanges[1] test A: ' + (true === tf.textRanges[1].characterAttributes.underline ? 'PASSED' : 'FAILED'));
    
    tf.textRanges[1].characterAttributes.underline = false;
    results.push('textRanges[1] test B: ' + (false === tf.textRanges[1].characterAttributes.underline ? 'PASSED' : 'FAILED'));
    
    alert(results.join('\n'));
    

    })();
    ```

    See this community forum post.

    Update: User sttk3 discovered that the bug is actually that Illustrator ignores an attempt to set a characterAtrribute property if the value is the same as the applied character style's value for the same attribute.

16. Threaded text area box disappears after saving

    MacOS Ventura 13.7
    Illustrator 28.6 and newer

    When I convert a document to curves, save a copy, and then press Undo so I can have the text boxes editable again. As soon as I press Save after doing this, the second text frame in a thumbnail in Finder vanishes, while still existing in the document.

    Any artboard that contains a ‘process’ RGB color (white, in my case) comes out as an RGB PDF file.
    Any artboard that only contains Spot RGB colored elements is seen as a CMYK file when opened in Illustrator or imported in InDesign (which is my goal).

    My example file will export nicely until I hide the background layer to make my PDF transparent. Then the one with the (previously) white background becomes CMYK.

18. Сompound Paths with Pattern Fill

    I encountered an issue where, after using the "Expand" command on Сompound Paths with using Pattern Fill, the pattern is duplicated several times.

    Can this be fixed?

19. Action with Image Trace does not record preset selection

    When creating an action with the Image Trace function, I am only able to utilize the default image trace settings when batching.

    While creating the action, loading custom parameters for the image trace function does not appear to be recorded in the action. When attempting to batch multiple files, the image trace uses the default black and white setting.

    My work around is the edit the trace parameters found in /collection7 in the vector_parameters.json found in the user folder. This is hardly an ideal workflow.

    Please have the action of loading the preset recorded in the action, so this workflow is usable.

    Thanks

20. Renamed asset does not change link name in the cloud link

    I dragged objects into the Library window to create a graphic asset in Illustrator and it's given a default name of "Artwork 1". I then renamed the file to "rename-test" and then dragged it into both an InDesign file and a blank illustrator file, and I noticed that the listed name says "rename-test" in the Libraries window in both apps, but the actual link name is still listed as "Artwork 1.ai". Why doesn't it show up as "rename-test.ai" in the Link window?

    Screenshot 1 from Ai:
    showing default name in Library window as "Artwork 1.ai"

    Screenshot 2 from Ai:
    showing renamed file

    Screenshot 3 from InDesign: showing the actual link is still listed as "Artwork 1.ai", but file in Library window says "rename-test"

    OS
    Windows 10 Pro, Version: 21H2

    Adobe:
    Illustrator 28.5 x64
