  3. 保存したワークスペースが再現されない

    Windows10 pro
    illustrator v25.1

    ツールバーを1列にして使っています。その状態でワークスペースを保存し、必要に応じてワークスペースのリセットを行っています。
    v24.3はツールバーは1列のまま復元されたのですが、v25はツールバーが2列の状態で復元されてしまいます。
    1列のまま復元されるよう、修正してほしいです。

  4. Decimals are divided by point instead of comma

    After updating to MacOs 11,1 and AI 25.1 the numeric keyboard do not recognize comma "," as input and put in values without any decimals.

    Point "." from the regular keyboard are accepted, but this is wrong way of writing numbers in my language and most common european languages except english.

  5. Selection of many objects across layers causes Illustrator to stop responding.

    Running Windows 10 Pro and Illustrator v 25.1.
    Opened existing illustrator file
    Unlocked a layer of my design
    Attempted to select all items within that layer.
    Expected: Items are selected and can be manipulated
    Actual: Illustrator stopped responding.

    I attempted to select the items multiple ways, including the "Click to target..." circle to the right of the layer in the Layers window, using Ctrl+A, and using the Selection Tool.

    I cannot provide my file, but I will provide further details:

    The top layer that I had unlocked included many groupings nested within it. I was able to reproduce the issue…

  6. Entire GUI Break at random intervals

    1.)
    Adobe Illustrator Version: 25.1
    OS: 64x Windows 10 Home 1909
    CPU: I7 7700
    GPU: Nvidia GTX 1070 8gb
    RAM: 2133MHz 48gb

    While using Illustrator, at random intervals the application's GUI breaks in a manner of which I have never previously encountered until today.

    The error has seemingly little to no correlation to the actions I was performing prior the time the bug, gltich, error, what ever you want to call it, and the only way for me to continue using the application and keep any unsaved data is to force quit the application and reopen it and proceed from…

  7. quick keys did not import to Beta

    When opening Beta my preferences had to be exported from regular Illustrator and imported to Beta. No big deal there... workspaces imported but quick keys did not.

  11. Minimised document shows up when opening another file

    Let's say that I have illustrator with one document already opened and minimised in dock.
    When I open another .ai file fron Finder, the minimised document shows up also before opening the document intended to open.
    That's really frustrating, as, if I decided to minimised a document, that means that I wanted it there for later or ocasionally use, and want it to stay minimised until another decision I made. It happend a lot of times to switch between opened .ai and Finder below, and I don't need another document to be opened behind the working one, If I minimised…

  12. No text selection on New Document window

    I have been experiencing a problem since Illustrator 2020.

    When in the New Document window, I can't select any text on the inputs such as File name, Height, Width, Bleed etc.

    I usually select by clicking and dragging, but it isn't working. The only way to select the entire text for me now is by clicking 3 times at the end.

    I reinstalled my windows 10 system for other reasons, but the problem persists.

    Everything seems fine on other Adobe applications, though.

  14. Cannot close window, save dialog endless loop

    I cannot close the current document window without an endless loop of "saved changes to document" (even though its currently saved). This is using the X in the corner to close window. If I say yes, save it, it remains open and won't close, even when I hit X again, endlessly (it just goes back to asking me if I want to save)

  15. New Layer button change now inserts new layer BELOW active layer

    With the addition of the button for adding a new Sub Layer, the current button for adding a New Layer now adopts the same behavior of adding a layer BELOW the current active layer, opposite to what was legacy behavior before.
    I checked, and dragging a layer to the New Layer button to make a copy still deposits the new layer copy ABOVE the current active layer, so something isn't right with the new change.

    That said, nice new option I didn't realize was there in the New Sub Level button, convenient, thank you.

  17. My work space including the toolbars doesnt load

    when i launch illustrator nothing loads except the selected artboard. Everytime i open illustrator i need to manually add all the tool bars and panels to make my workspace. i re installed illustrator and cleared preference too, it worked fine for first load then happened the same after the second load. It's a User Interface Launch bug i guess. Fix it please. or provide a solution

    I have attached a exact screenshot of how my interface looks after every launch
