Zoom w/ Command + Space Bar screen grays out
Hi - when I zoom in close to anything in AI using Command + Space Bar I will get a grayed out background and the object is very pixelized & strange looking - see attached screenshot. This happens about 50% of the time I do this. Can you look into fixing this bug? MacOS Catalina v 10.15.7, AI 25.4.1 Thank you.

Vector shapes changed to a section of the path I had deleted
I'm creating kaleidoscope patterns. To do this, I created a shape that is like a thin pizza slice (1/12th of a circle). I did this by using the pathfinder tool to intersect a circle with a triangle.
I took the resulting "pizza slice with a rounded top" shape and duplicated it multiple times. I then spent the next several hours using these to crop various patterns for sections of my kaleidoscope.
After a few hours a familiar bug appeared, where the bounding box around a shape it huge. I checked my remaining "pizza slices" and discovered that half of them…

Illustrator is not exporting with the current file name
- Create a document
- Draw a rectangle (just for it to have something inside)
- Save it anywhere as '1.ai'
- Export a, say, TIF, with default settings (these don't really matter) — Ai will offer '1.tif' name for the file exported
- Save this document as '2.ai'
- Export another TIF — Ail will use '1.tif' name, although the file is now '2.ai' This is wrong. Ai should adapt the name from the file actual name and not the original one.

Info panel useless for graphs
[Illustrator 25.0, Windows 10 Enterprise]
When using Group Select tool to select an element within a graph, the Info panel shows nonsensical values (e.g. W: -2730p6 H: -2730p6 ). Since the Transform panel has never shown values for graph elements (grayed out, 0 and 0), we relied on the Info panel to check the size of graph elements.
We use Illustrator exclusively for graphs, and this bug makes it impossible to follow our sizing standards.
This is an ongoing bug, every graph, every element of it, all the time.
Please fix the Info panel, or better yet, make the Transform…3 votes -

Export Artboards occasionally exports bleed
I'm using Windows 10, up to date as of 8th Nov 2020.
I have a new file, 85mm x 55mm. set up with a 3mm bleed. When attempting to export a JPG or PNG without the bleed (so, only the artboard visible) it still outputs the bleed area. I have tried exporting for screen, exporting with the 'Use Artboards' box both checked and unchecked. I have even reset my Illustrator preferences. No idea why this is suddenly not working in V25.0
I also get an error when attempting to export at 300DPI, which has never been an issue in the…

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 -

Mac OS 10.15.7
AI 25.3.1Resizing an open document window is glitchy and not smooth at all. The artboard and imagery on it jump around as the window is resized. It's visually disrupting to workflow.

Partially read the file disappears with legacy format
In Illustrator 25.2.3, myself, my client, his colleague, and their client, all run into a nasty bug where some ai files will not open.
The dialog saying Illustrator could only partially read the file will appear and the file can't be recovered properly. Sometimes the file(s) can be opened on a second attempt, but, we have found that only by saving the files in Legacy format, will this bug disappear and the files are usable once again.

Smart guides not snapping to artboard or other objects when multiple objects selected.
If you select more than one object and try to snap to the artboard bounds it does not show any snapping. This also happens if you have a lot of objects selected and try to snap to a guide or another group of objects.

Currently in Illustrator 25.4.1 Transparency Mask is not working
Currently in Illustrator 25.4.1 when using Transparency Mask the mask is not showing as opaque, it seems to show a tint of the element being masked.
1 voteMost probably the black object in a mask has a black fill set in Grayscale, set by K value, while the document is in RGB mode. 100%K is not not equal to RGB0,0,0. This is a pretty common issue, since Ai uses K in RGB, especially in the default gradient. Changing the fill to RGB in Color panel can fix that. Please comment back if it helps.
