ダイレクト選択ツールの動作がおかしい - Direct Selection Tool can’t move points with Snap to Grid enabled
ダイレクト選択ツールの動作がおかしいです。(English below Japanese)
「グリッドにスナップ」がONの状態で、グリッドに沿っていないオブジェクトの辺やアンカーポイントをダイレクト選択ツールでクリックしようとしても選択できません。また、クリッピングマスクを施した画像に関しては、「グリッドにスナップ」がOFFの状態であっても、マスクの辺やアンカーポイントを選択できません。
このようなことは以前は発生していませんでした。なお、環境設定をリセットしても直りません。使用OS:mac OS Sequoia(バージョン15.3.2)
Illustratorのバージョン:29.4The direct selection tool is not working properly.
When “Snap to Grid” is enabled, clicking on an edge or anchor point of an object that does not follow the grid will not select it correctly. Also, regarding clipping masks, even if “snap to grid” is disabled, the edge or anchor point cannot be selected.
This troubling event had not occurred before. Resetting the preferences does not fix the problem.OS: mac OS Sequoia (ver.15.3.2)
Illustrator: ver.29.46 votesThe team says it’s fixed in Prerelease build 29.6.191.
The fix is now scheduled to be pushed into the upcoming general release. If you are a part of the PR program, please check if it works.

GPU Performance causes lag on RTX 4000 Ada – CPU rendering is smoother
Illustrator version: 2026 (30.1)
OS: Windows 11
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4000 Ada
Driver: NVIDIA Studio 591.59Description:
When GPU Performance is enabled, Illustrator becomes less responsive (lag during zoom, pan and object manipulation).
Disabling GPU Performance makes Illustrator significantly smoother and more responsive.This happens even on empty or simple documents.
The issue is reproducible and does not depend on file complexity.Expected behavior:
GPU acceleration should improve performance, not reduce it.2 votes -
Highlight anchors on mouse over - across multiple layers
Previous versions of AI allowed highlight anchors on mouse over that applied to all currently editable layers.
For example, if there's an circle on layer one, and you start drawing on layer 2 above it, rolling the mouse over the circle highlights it's anchors, so the points you create on layer 2 are exactly over the circle.
2026 version can do this, but it only sometimes works. Most of the time it doesn't.
The option saves one from constantly averaging points. It's essential if you're sending files to a laser cutter.

3D objects don’t update
When you click an extruded object, that you have deselected and want to edit again, the change you do, doesn't seem to update. If I use a slider, it remembers the setting, but the viewport doesn't update for example the extrude depth. I regards all settings though.

Selection Tool grabbing top layer rather than selected object in Layers panel
I’m aware that there are workarounds to this issue, but being something I have always done through habit, I don't like that this has suddenly changed on me. I reset my settings to default, but cannot find anything that goes back to how I used to select objects.
Okay into the issue... I usually would select objects in the Layer panel, I use overlapping objects of the EXACT same size, ones with pattern vectors and gaps and lower layers of gradient colours, and if I want to edit this colour layer or move it around my canvas, I would normally…

3d extrusion doesn't render wireframe.
I've been a power user of Adobe 3d effects.
The new effects have this bug pending since years now. With the new update also this hasn't resolved.
When you apply extrusion on a rounded square/rectangle and try rendering wireframe, it doesn't render many lines, requesting to please fix this soon2 votes -
SVG import bug: pattern alignment bugs
The following represent three patterns with different alignments (see screenshots for expected vs how Illustrator imports them) (note: these are exported from Figma, and as exported they are also running into https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/50819006-svg-import-bug-svg-parser-is-incorrectly-depend , so the actual results shown here in the screenshot are after manually reordering the

SVG import bug: patterns import incorrectly
This pattern (from the MDN page) imports visually incorrectly (see screenshot):

SVG import bug: SVG parser is (incorrectly) dependent on <defs> order
The SVG spec recommends but does not require <defs> appear at the top of the document (before elements that use them).
This SVG, from the MDN patterns page, imports visually to Illustrator (albeit incorrectly):
<svg viewBox="0 0 230 100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<defs>
<pattern id="star" viewBox="0,0,10,10" width="10%" height="10%">
<polygon points="0,0 2,5 0,10 5,8 10,10 8,5 10,0 5,2" />
</pattern>
</defs>
<circle cx="50" cy="50" r="50" fill="url(#star)" />
<circle
cx="180"
cy="50"
r="40"
fill="none"
stroke-width="20"
stroke="url(#star)" />
</svg>
If I reorder the <defs> to the bottom, which is still valid SVG, it does not import anything visual at all:

Illustrator 2026 (30.0) saved files contain a large amount of blank space.
OS: windows 21H2
Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.0) (desktop)In Adobe Illustrator 2026 (version 30.0), files saved with default settings are significantly larger than those from the previous version. Before saving, the action “Delete Unused Panel Items” is executed to remove all unnecessary elements (the Save Options panel as Figure 1).
A comparison of file sizes with version 29 (with identical content, Figure 2) confirms this increase. When the file is opened as a text document (Figure 3), it reveals a substantial amount of whitespace.3 votes -

SVG import bug: object with multiple fill overrides in style attribute (including P3) import with no color
Example:

Threaded Type not scaling correctly
Mac Pro (2019, Intel), MacOS 15.6.1, Illustrator 29.7.1
After the update to version 29.7.1, the text in linked type objects does not scale (using the Scale tool) or scales disproportionately (using the Selection tool).
The Free Transform Tool currently appears to be the only way to scale these objects together while keeping the type size proportional to the objects being scaled.
The issue occurs in new and existing documents.

Template Layers Still Visible on Export for PNG and JPG
I am creating a logo package for a client and am attempting to export multiple logos / graphics with transparent backgrounds using the export panel. I've already confirmed multiple times that my PNG settings include transparency and that the View > Overprint Preview setting is unchecked. My background layer is set to non printing, however any PDF or PNG I export includes a visible background layer. I can completely hide this layer to avoid exporting it, but then I can't see my artwork correctly. The whole point of non printing layers is to see them when you are designing without…

Free Transform resets frame after each use
If it was the only problem... Have you ever tried to "free transform" an object like you can do it with Photoshop in a breeze ? Free Transform tool (Free Distort) resets the handles to the rectangular bounding box after each handle drag! Super convenient to adjust a deformation! But did Adobe internally have the distortion tools proposed in Illustrator tested? there are 3 or 4 but all are tedious to use and very incomplete. Please, Adobe, put all this in the trash and replace these useless things with a single tool effective and intuitive... exactly like the "free transform"…
1 voteIllustrator today properly keep the Free Transform frame deformed after each use, until you destroy the group it creates.
If you still have problems with the way it works — please comment back.

Morisawa Fontsの和文バリアブルフォントDriveFluxが使えない
いつのバージョンからかMorisawa Fontsの和文バリアブルフォントDriveFluxが急に使えなくなりました。macOS 15.6、Illustrator 2024 29.7.1を使用しています。2024の最初の方は使えてたんですが、どこかのマイナーバージョンアップで急に表示されなくなってしまいました。2025でも使えません。モリサワに相談したところ「こちらではどうしようもないのでAdobeさんに相談してください」とのことでした。ちなみにMonotypeの和文バリアブルフォントは問題ありません。ご対応お願いします。
1 vote最新の30.3一般リリースで修正されたとのことです。アップデートしてフォントが正しく表示されるか確認し、問題がまだ発生する場合はコメントでお知らせください。
Claimed to be fixed in the latest 30.3 general release. Please update, check if the font now works properly, and comment back if it still happens.

Once you start typing a font name in the Font Browser the scroll wheel stops working
Once you start typing a font name in the Font Browser the scroll wheel stops working.
Several of the other menus don't scroll either. For example, the units dropdown in the create new document window.Arrow keys still work.

Bring to front/back not working with new update
Manually right-clicking and selecting "bring to front" and "send to back" aren't working. The shortcut (ctrl + shift + [ or ] ) is also not working. This seems to have started after updating to version 29.4.
Every tutorial I can find hasn't helped. This bug has massively increased my workload as I use this action every few seconds.
