  3. Round corner not showing, object select not showing multi-select

    round corner only shows with regular select tool but not direct select tool
    when using direct select tool, would not outline selected object
    round corner mod would only show up for default shapes, if anything is divided or combined the round corner stops showing.

    Why do we need to vote for bugs to be fixed?
    shouldn't all bugs be fixed?? i mean it's not a new feature we are requesting.

    This happens when edges get hidden.

    Enable them back with View > Show Edge (or Cmd/Ctrl + H).

    Also, you can edit your corner values precisely with Corners field in Control and Properties panel. The Shape section in Transform panel allows you to do the same for live shapes.

  5. My colors keep getting dull randomly without changing settings

    This has happened repeatedly on different documents. When I select a color, I find that when I look back at the file (without closing the file) in 15-20 minutes, the colors become dull. My settings are in RGB.

  6. Leading space drop down menu

    Hey Adobe, on my Mac mini m1 the leading space from the contextual menu's is different between applications. See attaches image. I would say the space in PS is OK. Bigger makes the menu's harder to read. ( I'm working in a 4>2k scaled mode on my screen)

  9. Save for WEB makes main window unaccessible

    Open Save for WEB => change the Image Size => hit Enter. Sometimes the next window popups invisible and I have no access to it. Thus it is impossible to close the Save dialog and get back to the artwork. Anywhere I click I only hear the ding sound (meaning like I have to confirm or cancel something first).
    Save for Web window is inaccessible with mouse too: I cant resize it or interact with any of its UI elements. I can move it tho.

    But I can jump elements with the Tab button. With Tab, if I hit Enter…

  12. RGB colors appear differently in identical file setup

    I have created color codes in one document and brought them into another (with the exact same RGB setup) and the color breakdowns change to look the same. This is a problem because if I am sharing the RGB breakdowns with others, some of the colors appear much duller. I have noticed that something changes when an image is brought in from an external source sometimes. This is becoming a big issue across our team.

  13. Copy and Paste

    Observation
    • If a User copies text from Illustrator and attempts to paste that data (such as a very detailed and random artboard range) into the Range field of a Export dialogue box they will be unable to paste that information

    Results
    • User is forced to paste the text into a Browser address bar (for example) and copy it again for the paste function in the Range field to work

    Expected Results
    • A User could copy and paste easily within any dialogue box from any source

  15. 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.

  17. 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…

    This issue was reintroduced in MacOS update Ventura. The team ran into another issue while implementing the workaround suggested by Apple. While the team revisits this issue, users can use workaround this issues by paste through context menu. Thank you all for the patience.

  19. Illustrator is not exporting with the current file name

    1. Create a document
    2. Draw a rectangle (just for it to have something inside)
    3. Save it anywhere as '1.ai'
    4. Export a, say, TIF, with default settings (these don't really matter) — Ai will offer '1.tif' name for the file exported
    5. Save this document as '2.ai'
    6. 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.

  20. 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…
