  1. Align to key object automatic selection in align Panel

    In the new update (24.2) I have "align to artboard" as a default but when I select multiple objects it automatically selects "align to key object" even after choosing the other multiple times. This is a new issue.

    Hi Everyone,

    We have fixed this bug in our latest release – v 24.2.1 which is available worldwide now. Thanks for your patience on this.

    Please note that after upgrading you might still see that Align To sets itself to Align to Key Object. If you see this, please manually set the Align To to the required setting, and this reported bug will not happen again. You’ll need to this one time only.

    The reason Align To might get set to Key Object after update is because Ai remembers your last Align To on subsequent launches as well. So, if your last Align To was Key Object before quitting/upgrading, after first multi-selection, it will set itself to Key Object. After you manually change it one-time, it will work fine.

    You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

  2. Copy/paste vector: Illustrator → Figma (pastes as raster)

    In 25.2 — graphics copied from Illustrator get inserted in Figma as a vector image. In 25.3 the behavior is broken and graphics get pasted as a raster image.
    All the settings are the same.

  3. Library Disappears

    After I use Illustrator for a while, the library disappears (seemingly without provocation). The library comes back if I restart illustrator (but then I have to close all the files I was working on and open them again).

  5. Line width tool issues

    When changing the line width with the "Width Tool", it creates little triangles in the line and distorts all the corners.

  7. Keyboard Shortcuts "Export Text..." file missing tab delimiter under "Menu Commands"

    Steps to repeat: go to Edit/ Keyboard Shortcuts/ "Export Text..."
    Then import the text file as a tab delimited data file in a spreadsheet of your choice.

    In Excel: go to Data/ Get Data/ From File/ From Text/CSV/, select the shortcuts txt file, set the delimiter to 'Tab' and click 'Load'.

    Look down the rows and at the menu commands...

    Expected behaviour:
    Edit/ Keyboard Shortcuts/ "Export Text..." should give me a consistently tab delimited file. This means, in the spreadsheet you should see the shortcut in the next column to the command (same row).

    Actual behaviour (on both Mac and…

  8. 行頭禁則文字に関わる和欧文間隔をカスタマイズ可能に!

    Illustratorの日本語組版で、たとえばプリセットの文字組アキ量設定「行末約物半角」を元に、和欧文間隔を「0%」にカスタマイズしても、そのカスタマイズの結果は、何故か「行頭禁則文字」に分類される文字種には効果がありません。
    ※添付ファイルをご参照くださいませ(macOS Catalina上のCC2021にて作成)。

    日本語組版の中では、デフォルトの「25%」アキを「12.5%」あるいは「0%」としたいという作業は少なからず発生しますが、上記のような挙動では、作業者の負担になるばかりです。

    可能であれば、「文字組アキ量設定和欧文間隔のカスタマイズが、行頭禁則文字にも効くように」改善することを希望します。
    挙動を変更していただければ、作業者の負担も軽減され、喜んで受け入れられるに違いありません。

    なお、このような挙動の変更は、「文字組みアキ量設定に頼らずなんらかの方法で和欧文間隔を変更した既存ファイル」にはあまり影響がないものと考えますが、変更していただくならば、【その変更を周知】していただくことは大切なことだと申し添えておきます。

    よろしくお願いします。

  13. Drawing shapes using any tool ignores colour and stroke settings

    Drawing a new shape either using the automated tools of square/ellipsis etc or when drawing when the pen tool, the stroke stays the setting of a previous setting, despite what is displaying. Likewise, the colour shows the 'correct' setting but retains the setting of a previous setting.
    I have closed Illustrator and restarted the application but it's still happening.

  14. Holding alt to make the Width tool only change one side of a brushed path snaps the other side to zero.

    1. Draw a path. Give it a simple, thick stroke.
    2. Hold down ALT while using the Width tool to change one side's width; note that the other side stays the same width.
    3. Draw a new path. Give it an art brush or pattern brush.
    4. Hold down ALT while using the Width tool to change one side's width; note that the other side suddenly snaps to zero-width.

    I would swear the Width tool used to behave as in step 2 on brushed paths? It'd be nice to get this reversion fixed. Or to make the Width tool behave consistently across different kind…
