  3. SVGs opened in Illustrator don't include blend modes

    I created an SVG in Illustrator that has some layers using the blend mode "overlay". I export out the SVG and it looks perfect. If I open that SVG in Illustrator it turns the blend modes into "normal" instead of "overlay".

  5. 'Edit Color Group' does not respect global or spot color swatches.

    The 'edit color group' tool is a neat little palette explorer, but in practice I never use it because my workflow is centered around global swatches, and it completely ignores that.

    Try this:

    1. Make a few global color swatches. Draw some shapes using them.
    2. Double-click on one of those swatches, play with the sliders, notice that everything drawn in it changes to match.
    3. Make those swatches into a color group.
    4. Select the color group and hit the 'Edit Color Group' button in the Swatches palette.
    5. Change some colors, hit OK, yes you do want to save your changes to the…

  9. Illustrator crashes when switching views in the Asset Export panel

    Has this been reported yet? There's a really easy-to-reproduce crash bug in Adobe Illustrator involving the Asset Export panel that affects even the latest version (24.2) .
    If the Asset Export panel contains more than two items and an item other than the first is currently being renamed and the view is attempted to be switched from Grid View to List View, the mouse cursor will begin to move really slowly for a few seconds and after that, Illustrator will crash. See the video attached for a demonstration.

    Some system info:
    Adobe Illustrator 24.2
    OS: Windows
    Version: 10.0
    System Architecture:…

    I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 24.3.0 which is available worldwide now.

    Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

    You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

    Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

  10. Open and Save Dialog boxes in Mac OS Dark Mode

    While the UI section of the preferences does allow you to change the UI of Illustrator to a darker them, when will the Open and Save dialog boxes match the dark UI of the operating system for Mac OS Catalina. Here is a screenshot to display the Save dialog box. This is not a dark theme to match the system UI, however, Photoshop does (here are the screenshots while using the dark mode UI in Adobe and in the Mac OS Catalina).

  11. Panels Keep Opening While Using Shortcuts

    Panels on the top of the screen keep opening when I try using tool shortcuts. For example, I'll be on the type tool then want to switch to the move tool but when I hit its shortcut (V) it opens the view panel instead (I get that this one doesn't work if I have type selected but I mean when nothing's selected and I want to arrange my type it opens the view panel instead of changing tools). Not sure if this is a common problem but it never happened until the latest update.

    Not sure why there are always…

  14. Closing while saving dialogue box has a grammatical error.

    The close-while-saving dialogue box says "Close anyways" as an option which bugs me because it should read as "anyway" not "anyways." The latter is grammatically incorrect. Not to mention that "getting saved" is also wrong and should be "being saved"

  16. Illustrator font panels shows wrong data

    When I have a text selected on Illustrator, the fonts panel shows a wrong font, it shows a font what I previously selected for a different text and not the font that the selected text actually is.
    in other words, I cannot see what font is used unless I copy the text, and find the font that looks the same.

    Same thing with font size etc. if I have a text active and the font size is for example 47 px, and I just changed a different text size to 15 px, the fonts panel shows that all of my…

  17. CC Color Library changes when moving to 2nd monitor

    When using a 2nd monitor, if I move a CC app from the primary laptop monitor to the secondary monitor, the CC Color Library changes. The color shifts are minimal, but enough to be problematic. Additionally, the background color of the library changes from the expected dark gray to a light gray.

    I've verified my monitors and they are calibrated properly, so this is not a monitor calibration issue. I noticed the issue within the last few weeks, less than a month ago.

    See attached images for examples.

  18. Disappearing Blinking Cursor

    This was previously listed as COMPLETED for "Dialog box text selection missing blinking cursor", but the fact is that this issue is STILL occurring.

    Can you all please fix this blinking cursor issue? This has been happening for a while now and it still hasn't been fixed. Some people have suggested that resetting the preferences fixes this issue, but resetting the preferences does NOT fix the issue.

    It seems to occur when you change the "User Interface" color to either the lightest grey or the 2nd to lightest grey (see attached file).

    When you change your User Interface to one…
