Just updated Illustrator to 28.1 and reinstalled Maps plugin...AIX files are unknown and cannot be open
Hello, AIX files opened just fine until I updated Illustrator to 28.1 last week. I even reinstalled ArcGIS Maps plugin. Illustrator is saying it doesn't recognize AIX file types. Added the "Mapping components" add-on and it is still not recognizing the files.

Cannot paste the artboards because of insufficient space on the canvas
I get this error so often, and I'm not sure how to fix it. I belive it has something to do with guides, but guides are infinite, so they should always (and never) go off the canvas.
Happens when I select an artboard and try to copy/paste

スクリプトでアクションを実行するとフリーズする
Illustratorのアクションに「⌘+A」といういわゆる「すべて選択」アクションを作成し、「Select All」という名前を付けます。
Apple Script で「do script "Select All" from "testAction"」を実行すると、Illustrator がフリーズします。
この現象はver.25.2頃のバージョンでは発生していませんが、それ以降のバージョンでは発生します。
改善されることを願っています。
Create a so-called "Select All" action called "⌘+A" in Illustrator's actions and name it "Select All".
Illustrator freezes when you run "do script "Select All" from "testAction"" in Apple Script.
This phenomenon does not occur in versions around ver.25.2, but it does occur in later versions.
I hope it improves.

Linked ai file being cut off
a Flattened tiff is opened and then saved in illustrator with a mask as ai. It is placed in another ai. file and when that happens part of the image is cut off, and its not part of the mask. I tried making sure there was only one layer in photoshop and in illustrator, resaved it different ways and still comes out the same. seems to follow a few particular files and sometimes appears all black or part of it black or just cut off. the files are no different than the ones that do work.

Annoying popup windows in toolbar
I just got a new computer and had to go to Illustrator 28 (Mac OS 12.7.1). Now nearly every time I want to draw an object or move something around, I get an annoying box full of options. It would be fine if the boxes came up on a right click, but I don't need to see them every darn time. I looked in Preferences but none of the obvious choices made them go away. After many years of Illustrator I know what the options are... I could also do without the automatic "Lorem ipsum" text, but that's relatively minor.…

An object with a freeform gradient fill makes the coloring control in the tool panel switched to None
In the tool panel we have three indicator buttons, which show the current type of fill/stroke for the selection — Fill, Gradient, None.
Illustrator switches it to None, when an object with a freeform gradient fill is selected.I can understand why it probably happens. Since freeform gradients are not technically gradients, and using this mode converts an object into a dynamic container for generating a triangular mesh, it makes sense for Illustrator to not display the proper indicator here — the container has no fill... but it makes no sense for a user. It is you who decided it’s…

Illustrator 2024 resets most Preferences on restart
The issue with Preferences not saving is back. I have this problem with the 20243 version. How hard is it to fix this? It's SUPER annoying to have to change all of my preferences on a program I use daily.
EVERY time I restart illustrator, I loose all preferences except hot keys (thank god). I lose unchecking the real time drawing (because that's annoying), I lose units, I lose like most of what I set up. It's awful.

Font Height settings not working with all-small-cap typefaces
Working in MacOS 13.5.2
Illustrator 27.8.1
When setting type in a Area Type box, the default Font Height is snapping to the x-height of the text, but only when using fonts with small-cap style lowercase letterforms, rather than typical lowercase forms. When using a font with typical lowercase, the Font Height of the box is defaulting to the height of uppercase letters, as expected.
This behavior is happening to fonts installed locally on my system, as well as those activated though Adobe Fonts.
Selecting various settings for the Font Height option in the Character panel does not alter this behavior,…

Using blending modes with embedded images now gives darker colors
In version 28 transparency in embedded images doesn't work the same way it worked in version 27, thus making impossible to use older files with the new version.
Transparency (as in soft light, overlay...) gives a different result, usually darker, flatter.
Looks like the issue is with embedded images, not linked, but since I need to use images in patterns I need to embed them.1 vote -
パターン作成時に幅と高さに0.0001mmの誤差
基準点を中心にした状態でパターンを作成する際に、パターンオプションの幅と高さに0.0001mmの誤差が発生します。縦横比維持の選択を解除し数字を均一にしても、「オブジェクトにタイルサイズを合わせる」などの項目を選択することにより、また0.0001㎜の誤差が発生します。
尚、基準点を左上にしているときは、このような誤差は発生しない。1 vote -

Transparency panel shows 0% for the mixed opacity values
When having a selection of art with mixed opacity values, Transparency panel should display blank, as Illustrator does for color values or stroke weights, but instead it lies they all have 0%.
Take a look at the GIF attached.

Changing text case switches hyphenation on ( from off )
Switching the text case from one case to another turns hyphenation on if it was previously set to off.
I believe this is a new bug in v 27.9. ( today's date is Oct 5 ,2023 for the record )
This is especially bad becuase users have been asking for hyphenation to be OFF by default. Asking for years and years. 5+ years I think.

Popups in the Appearance palette often lock up Illustrator.
Lately whenever I summon a popup in the Appearance palette, I will often find that Illustrator locks up with a spinning rainbow pinwheel. I have waited a while for it to return and it never does; I now consider this a cue to restart Illustrator and hope I saved recently, or that I got lucky with the crash recovery.
The two popups I get it with more often are the stroke/fill color, and the stroke. I've included screenshots of both to make it more obvious where to fool around. Next time this happens I'll come provide a file that does…

Smart guides don’t highlight a repeat object when it’s grouped
- Please open the attached file.
- Make sure you have Smart Guides enabled (and Object Highlighting enabled as well in Preferences > Smart Guides) and Snap to Grid disabled.
- Hover your cursor over the yellow circle — you will see a blue edge highlighted.
- Hover again, but over the black cross — Illustrator won’t highlight it.
- Open the Layers panel and study the object tree — yo will see that the Radial Repeat is grouped.
- Select it, ungroup it, and try to hover over it again — now Illustrator will draw the edges.
Notice that Illustrator still won’t tell you the…
