Jagged artefacts on edges of objects with gradient fills or transparency
Revisiting a Logo Artwork that I did last year (created using V.24x), the artwork has now changed ... there are jagged lines around the edges of shapes that were filled with transparency gradients. (see pic 1) This is not due to any extra nodes; the underlying geometry is the same (see pic 2).
If I use 'Flatten Transparency' it solves the jagged lines, but adds extra 'blocks' in the corners (see pic 3). This is not something that used to happen.
This is not multiple objects stacked, so can't Ungroup and it isn't a compound path so I can't Release.…

Color changes when document is closed
I am working on several documents with a specific color, and when I close the AI file, the color switches to a different HEX code.
This issue has no pattern that I can understand, since it does not happen with all documents. It is even more odd because if I choose the color I want with the eyedropper, it remains correct, but if I write the HEX code, it does not. Besides, the color profile doesn't change when this happens, at least that I'm aware of.

Multiple import of SVG doesn't include filters. Only the first file opened includes filters.
Situation: I have 2 SVGs I want to import into Ai.
I import the first one and the SVG Filter Effects are applied as expected.
Then, when I open the second SVG, Ai just completely ignores the SVG effects.It's a simple bug which probably should have a simple fix.
However, as a developer, I wasted 6 hours of my time not realizing you could have such a trivial bug, one that's so easy to fix, in your software after this long.Here's the second bug: "upload files" feature for the bug request doesn't accept SVG. Or maybe it's just…

Ctrl+click on a Gradient tool icon in a toolbar to reset gradient doesn’t work
We were able to Ctrl+click the Gradient tool button to reset gradient to default black-and-white, as stated here: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/default-keyboard-shortcuts.html
Now only Ctrl-clicking the preview in Gradient panel works.10 votes -

Changing corner radius on a shape changes unrelated anchor point
MacOS Big Sur 11.6, Illustrator 25.4.1
(Older versions too, I specifically reinstalled Illustrator with preferences resetted to verify if the bug is still there on the newest version)
I have been having this issue randomly for a while, when rounding corners on some shapes, certain anchor points get displaced, often ruining symmetry. I have tried turning every kind of snapping off. It doesn't matter if the corner is changed from the panel or from the artboard. Doesn't matter if I have one corner selected on more, Illustrator sometimes decides to change a certain anchor point.
Before rounding the corners, I…

Undo after deleting a line created with the Pen tool freezes Illustrator
OS: Windows 10 Enterprise
AI Version: 25.4.1,
Bug replicated with three different computers and instances of Illustrator, all same OS, same AI version, same freeze.I had a bunch more steps when I ran across this problem, but I was able to replicate it with much fewer steps like so:
With the pen tool, draw a couple vertices.
Delete the line you're making from the table of contents.
Click on the canvas anywhere; the line reappears with a new vertex which you just made.
Undo the vertex you just made (the first time I did it, it undid the pen…3 votes -
Unable to open/paste/place images from AfterEffects generated PNG sequence.
I'm getting error when I'm trying to open/place/paste image form After Effects (22.4.0 build 54) genereted PNG sequence. Png can be any size (tested with 1080x1920 & 640x640). Images had no transparency (solid white bg).
Error says "Requested transformation would make some objects too large". When I press OK, png image opens in another tab with dimensions of 16383x 16383px for 640x640px picture. I can open same image in Photoshop without a problem. The DPI of the image generated by AfterEffects is 72dpi.
Illustrator version 26.3.1.

Selecting text works poorly
According to the screenshot, when I press the left mouse button in the place represented by the red triangle, the above text is selected. This place is completely beyond the scope of the word "Nature".

Editing Adobe PDF Presets crashes Illustrator
When trying to edit a Adobe PDF Preset in Illustrator it crashes on hitting OK to save. I have tried deleting all preferences and uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator but no luck. For most things this would not be an issue since I can overwrite most setting by saving it in InDesign and overwriting with the same name (Why can't we do this in Illustrator?) This is happening on Illustrator version 26.0.3 on Mac OS 12.0.1 Intel iMac. I have added a quick screen grab. It doesn't matter what I try to edit.

Localization bug with variable font panel
As shown, this is a variable font with 3 axes, the second axis is named "Italic", but it is incorrectly displayed as a localized text. I'm sure there is no localized name for this axis in the font file.
The font file can be downloaded from here: https://symphosizer.wearecollins.com/fonts/ABCSymphonyDisplayVariable.ttf

If the vote is low, is the insect I found a bug a bird?
Let me tell you from the beginning, I'm not trying to get more votes here..
What does voting change? Does it produce a solution? What does it matter if I get 1,000,000,001 votes?
For example, there is a bug in illustrator and I prove it. But vote 3 etc. 5 Does this cease to be a bug? What a stupid app.
I have serious doubts that Uservoice is cumbersome.In the meantime, check my profile if you want to see my questions.

SVG - save as in illustrator version 27.0.1 - moving objects off artboard sporadically
The latest version seems to not be playing well with SVG formats. I have reverted back to 26.5.2 and the issue resolved itself.
When saving an SVG, everything looks fine. When it is opened again, all the of the objects are sporadically distributed on and off of the artboard. I have never seen this issue before and my save settings are the same.1 vote -
Expanding a path with a gradient doesn't expand, just creates a group with the same path
I want to expand a gradient applied to a path so that I have bands of colour as vectors in place of the gradient.
I have been using this tool in this way successfully but this week there seems to be a bug: it works until it doesn't and then doesn't work at all.
If I quit Illustrator and reopen everything it might work again, but with some paths it doesn't work at all. Please see my screenshots.

Selection and Direct selection tool behaviour errors
The issues have to do with what items are selected, and which properties are displayed in panels (appearance and attributes) when using the selection tool and the direct selection tool on various configurations of item.
Please see the attached AI file for a thorough QA breakdown of this issue (s).
The most impactful error can be seen when using the Direct Selection tool on an item(path or text) in a group which contains only that one single item.
The expected behaviour should be the same as for any other usage of the direct select tool: it selects the item within…

Illustrator is always disconnected from Creative Cloud
Illustrator refuses to load my fonts and color library. It doesn't sync with the creative cloud until much later if at all. I'm a design intern and it's extremely important I use our specific font and colors so not being able to access this really sets me back on my projects.

save dialog not appearing when trying to save newly created file windows 10 64bit regarding Illustrator 27.0
Like many others, when I create a new file, draw something and try to save, save as or export the newly created file, Illustrator does not display the save dialog box.
I have discovered that if I open up a file created previously, it will save without issues.
Since discovering this, to get it to save the new content, I needed to open up an old file, delete contents, draw new content and Save As a new name.Although this method works, the issues remain, I have now rolled back from the latest update to 26.5.1 and the issue is…
