Scatter Brush - Can't modify settings after initial setup
Hello,
I'm running Adobe Illustrator 2020 24.0.0 on Windows 10.0There seems to be a bug with the Scatter Brush tool, which I've encountered in the past few releases.
The "OK" button in the Scatter Brush Settings dialog doesn't seem to work; clicking it doesn't update the brush to your new settings. Instead, the dialog remains open as if the OK button was disabled (or the click wasn't registered). The same thing happens when there are no changes made to the options in the dialog...it simply won't register the OK button. Only the Cancel button closes this dialog (and no…

EPS files look slightly off in working document and exported files for web
We have used .eps files for our logos for many years with no issues. Now, .eps files placed into a document (usually logos) appear just slightly off -- sometimes it will be the rounding of one of the letters, or a little chunk off the side of some letters. Some of the letters may appear to be outlined or thicker than others. In some cases, the issue is so subtle it isn't caught before going to print. Registered trademark symbols are often corrupted.

Sometimes click outside artboard to deselect object not working
Illustrator v24.0.2
I don't know what triggers this, but sometimes there's error in selection that causing the object to be highlighted and can't deselect it by clicking outside artboard with selection tool.
This is getting frustrating. I really hope Illustrator get a renewal just by rebuilding the program from scratch without changing the initial tool since the bug is just too much.workaround :
If the object is a grouped object, then double click it to enter isolation mode, and double click again to get out.
If not, then, save and close and re-open the document.2 votes -

Illustrator loses links to artwork that is renamed in library
When I rename a graphic I am reusing throughout my file, all links to that graphic are lost and when I try to copy layers containing those linked graphics, Illustrator reports the following errors:

- "an unknown imaging construct"
- "an unknown shading type"If I have many instances of that artwork in multiple layers, it takes a lot of time to have to find every single instance, delete it, drag the renamed graphic in, move it to the correct layer, resize and rotate, and reapply the styles I had…
