  1. Rotating with Shift held doesn't rotate precisely at 180 degrees

    MacBook Pro 16-inch, 2021
    Apple M1 Pro
    16 GB memory
    Sonoma 14.1.2

    Illustrator 28.4.1

    Holding down shift while rotating an object "180deg" doesn't actually rotate it 180deg. It's maybe 179deg, which is a major problem.

  2. Making a regular triangle with Star tool duplicates the path

    Scissor tool cuts lines and duplicates them (completely broken)

    Make a triangle by selecting the star and changing it to 3 lines (triangle), now cut one of the lines with the scissor. It duplicates the shape! This bug is seen across multiple shapes and lines. The scissor tool is broken along with selecting individual points often creates duplicate lines.

    The quality of adobe products has just gone downhill in the last 5 years.

  6. Accent changes fonts

    When we use Variable Concepr Fonts if I write text that contain letters with accents, the style of the typography changes. It's quite annoying.

  7. Making adjustments to a value within a panel's field, either through a scroll wheel or a swipe up/down gesture, operates inversely.

    1) Click on a field with a certain value in a panel (e.g., "Keyboard Increment" value in the "Properties" panel).
    2) Scroll up or down to adjust its value.
    3) Scrolling up will result in decreasing the value.
    4) Scrolling down will now result in increasing the value.

    This is counter intuitive. It should work vice versa. Scrolling UP should INCREASE the value, and scrolling DOWN should DECREASE it.
    Please, fix it.

  8. Illustrator scripts not working on M2 Mac mini

    Apple M2 Pro running Sonoma 14.7. Only the 3 included scripts are visible or work in either Illustrator 24 (v28.7.1) or Illustrator 23 (v27.9.6).
    If you browse to a script you can select it but nothing happens. No action, no error message.
    External 3rd party scripts no longer seem to work.
    Is there a fix?

  9. Dimension Tool panel as a tool subgroup instead of a floating modal panel

    If you pick Dimension Tool, a small panel appears. As with the other tools, there should be a small triangle in the bottom right-hand corner to indicate that further options are available. If you click on the tool, these options should pop up BEFORE the tool panel.

  11. problème de copier/coller d'objet sur les calques non verrouillés

    pourquoi illustrator veut toujours coller les objets sur le calque vérrouillé ou invisible ? Cela n'arrivait pas avant la dernière mise à jour de Illustrator. Avant, je copiais collais sur le calque sélectionné (les autres étant verrouillés) sans souci. Maintenant cela m'affiche un pop up qui me demande si je veux déverrouiller le calque ou afficher le calque correspondant . Si je clique NON, le collage ne se fait pas, si je clique OUI, il se colle sur le calque d'en dessous qui est verrouillé, voir même invisible. Pourtant, Je suis bien positionné sur un claque déverrouillé et qui est…

  12. Do not loose focus for the Scale dropdown’s field in Export for Screens dialog after we choose a value

    在“导出为多种屏幕所用格式(ctr+alt+E)”对话框中,选择“高度”“宽度”“分辨率”后,“缩放”编辑框应自动获得焦点,这样在选择上述选项后就可以直接输入所需数字,减少使用鼠标激活编辑框的操作,更加高效,体验更好。

  13. I'm tired. Tools occasionally don’t work, artboards don’t get edited, links don’t hold.

    My illustrator since I downloaded it has been very bad, at the moment it is buggy and does not let me edit the artboards, I even had to restart my PC. The bug happens with all the tools and just with the passing of the hours it fixes itself, but I'm tired. I can't even add images or screenshots because it doesn't leave me when it's in that state, it's not my computer, it's a very good computer and I can't say it's because I'm doing something wrong. Simply out of nowhere some tool does not work or the application…

  15. Older Brush Strokes get replaced with new ones drawn nearby

    Why a new brush stroke always replaces the old one, if they're close to each other?

  18. Assets I use for hundreds of documents in my CC library not printing correctly

    Some files the library file is fine, but recently the certain asset is not printing correctly, it is pixelated and colors are wrong. How is this fixed without going through hundreds of print files to reinsert this asset into all of the files so it prints perfect? Its used at the same scale everytime. Has to be saved the same way every time bc of the printer demands. It's just not behaving the same way each document. In the pictures one printed correctly, and the other file did not.

  20. 3D inflated art has rippled edges

    I'm getting rippled edges when I apply inflate to vector artwork. I've tried various settings but can't get it to appear as smooth lines. There's also a slight clipping to the right pupil. Can't get it to render properly.
