  1. Skalierungsecken verschwinden bei zu schmalen Objekten

    Ich habe folgendes Problem. Wenn ich ein Objekt auswähle, kommt ja automatisch der blauen Begrenzungsrahmen mit den kleinen blauen Quadraten, die ich anfassen kann um die Größe zu verändern.
    Wenn die Objekte groß genug sind, kommt nicht nur in den Ecken das blaue Quadrat, sondern auch auf der Mitte der Strecke. Wenn man den Punkt in der Mitte anfässt, kann man das Objekt nur in dieser Richtung skalieren, was hilft, wenn man nicht aus Versehen Höhe und Breite verändern will.

    In meinen uralten Illustrator 10 hatte ich, wenn das Objekt zu schmal wurde, einfach einen blauen Begrenzungsrahmen, der größer war…

  2. Non-uniform scaling of rounded rectangles

    When scaling a rounded rectangle non-uniformly, the corners should distort from circular arcs to elliptical sections.
    Instead, I get resized rounded corners, and Adobe tech support is calling it a "feature".

  4. Macmini ベータ版 ガイドラインのバグ

    パスをガイドライン化するとガイドライン化したツールが一定方向に移動してしまう。ルーラーからガイドラインをアートボード上に引き出しても同様。一定方向に移動してしまう。ガイドラインも異常な太さで、ロックしていない状態で移動ツールを使っての移動ができない。

  5. l'outil pipette à disparu

    L'outil pipette a disparu de ma barre d'outils et de la liste d'outils malgré une réinitialisation de l'interface. Même le raccourci clavier (I) ne fonctionne pas. Mon collègue se retrouve avec le même problème.

  6. Why are Tools on Toolbar are present, but will not activate when selected?

    The selection tool is the only active tool. When any other drawing tool has been selected it will not activate, pen tool, rectangle tool etc. I have Reset Essentials and tried multiple options suggested on forums and videos. Closed and reopened program reset to other "Workspaces" and nothing has reactivated the tools. Everything worked yesterday. The tools are not hidden. They simply will not activate when selected.

  7. Shape Builder ignores lines when they don’t cross a shape

    Shape builder, despite the rounding bug that is embedded in its core (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-bugs/suggestions/37424191-expanding-a-live-paint-object-changes-dimensions#comments) is still a very useful tool many users are very fond of.
    Specifically, it can be used to bring pathfinder options to open paths — you can delete parts of lines that are covered with another shape, effectively subtracting segments from them (rather than closed shapes), by Alt+dragging over this shape (see the GIF attached).
    But this nice trick won’t do the job if lines don’t cross the entire shape. That is when a line ends inside of a shape, the tool doesn’t trim it.

  8. Selection tool is no more letting to resize any object

    All of a sudden the selection tool stopped functioning and not letting resize any object. I have to change size in parameters from tools. I uninstalled illustrator once and installed it with latest version available.

    I am working on Mac OS Big Sur

  9. Bug avec les pathfinders - Illustrator 2021

    Un contour mystérieux apparapit quand je met une transparence à une forme créée par pathfinder... les pointes de ma forme débordent du path, et il y a un contour irrégulier à l'intérieur de tout le path... pourtant, aucun contour n'est appliqué... j'ai tenté de créer ma forme de différentes façons... divide, minus front, une forme à la fois, expand, «unite» de toutes les formes avant de crever le rectangle, Shape builder tool, nouveau document, restart! Toujours le même problème! J'utilise Illustrator 2021 (v. 25.2), sur Mojave 10.14.6.

  10. Eyedropper tool disappears - Illustrator 25.1 on Windows 10

    So after updating and opening Illustrator for the first time, the eyedropper tool is there, but after closing Illustrator and opening it back up, the tool is gone. I've rolled back Illustrator, re-updated it, reset the preferences and it still happens.

  11. Layers gone

    When I opened the Illustrator file in latest version, all my layers were gone and a bunch of clipping paths created. Also the selection tool has a weird symbol like a cross-hatch and no longer selects objects.
    Illustrator has broken my file.

  12. Defective magnifying glass

    When I zoom in on text with a magnifying glass.
    Then switch to the text tool, change the text and switch back to the magnifying glass, then I can no longer zoom out with the alt key.
    I have to switch to the selection tool first. And then back to the magnifying glass to zoom out with the alt key. Does that make any sense?
    When I want to zoom out with the alt key, the hand always appears to move.
    Only when I have switched to the selection tool and then back to the magnifying glass, the minus symbol…

  15. Eyedropper tool vanished from tools panel

    Whenever I restart my computer and open Illustrator, the eyedropper tool disappears from my tools list. The measure tool is in its place. No option to hold down the measure tool to expand to the eyedropper tool. Also not showing up when you try to add the tool via the Edit Toolbar feature.

  16. Pencil Tool creating too many anchor points

    I'm drawing over path with the pencil tool (Wacom tablet)
    Older version of Illustrator was smoother more accurate and natural flowing. Now creates jagged lines.

  17. Pencil tool in Illustrator 2021 less smooth (when editing existing line) than in Illustrator 2020, even with same settings

    When using the pencil tool to edit existing lines, instead of a smooth transition at the start and end of the edit, it's always a little jagged no matter how carefully I draw it. Toggling and using the smooth tool afterwards helps, but that adds an extra step every time I use this tool to edit lines. The 2020 version didn't have this problem, and I compared my pencil tool settings between the two versions and they were the same. Even tweaking the settings on the 2021 pencil tool doesn't resolve the issue.
