  2. My Graphtec CE Lite-50 cutting machine, is no longer working since the new 2022 Adobe Illustrator.

    I use the Graphtec CE Lite 50 to cut my vinyl. Since Adobe Illustrator updated to the 2022 version, my cut option to send it to the Graphtec to cut, is gone from the file section. Why is this?

  3. Eyedropper tool vanished from tools panel

    Whenever I restart my computer and open Illustrator, the eyedropper tool disappears from my tools list. The measure tool is in its place. No option to hold down the measure tool to expand to the eyedropper tool. Also not showing up when you try to add the tool via the Edit Toolbar feature.

  4. Color resets in Color Picker window, when cursor moves out of the window from an edge/corner

    In Photoshop, when we open the Color Picker window and are dragging the cursor over the color brightness area (the square which shows the different shades of the current color of the color wheel) and then while dragging, if we move out the cursor from any of the edges or corners of that square area, the color on the edge gets selected. That's the ideal behaviour.

    In Illustrator, when we drag out the cursor from a corner (For example, to select black color, I'd quickly drag out the cursor from the bottom left corner) Illustrator resets the color to the…

  5. Attribution NUMÉRIQUE des couleurs

    I type it : " C 18 / M 98 / J 97 / N22 "

    I save.

    Then i open the color's details.

    I get : C 22,68 / M 97,9 / J 99,65 / N 17,56

    If i type EXACTLY a number, i want to get EXACTLY THIS NUMBER. And if i go to RGB and then come back to CMJN, I WANT EXACTLY THE NUMBER I TYPED. Why i typed this value ???? Cause i want THIS value. Not another.

  6. All caps switching off

    Type with all caps is changing back to whatever case it was typed in. In other words the all caps attribute is switching off. I'm pretty sure this is not operator error.

  11. 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.

  13. 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.

  14. 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)

  17. 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…

  20. 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.
