1. Apply to All 'quick' action for Dimensions in Properties is slow

   Properties has a dedicated quick action for dimension objects, Apply to All (which should be a command instead we can access via top menu, here’s a request — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49010378)

   Pressing this applies the current settings of the current dimension selected to all of these on canvas.
   It’s S L O W. Even if I have just a dozen of these in the document, each time I change one, Ai goes numb for 15-20 seconds.
   Not OK.

2. Embedded Images Appear Desaturated or Greyed Out in Adobe Illustrator

   I'm experiencing an issue with Adobe Illustrator. Every time I try to embed an image, the image turns greyed out or desaturated. However, if I use the Crop Image function instead, the image appears correctly with the proper colors.

   I've tried this with different image files and it consistently happens when embedding, but not when cropping. I'm using Adobe illustrator 29.5.1 (64-bit), Windows 11, 24H2, 26100.4061

3. Spots and Globals are converted into process colors when included into Swatch Info

   If we pick several spot or global color swatches to display in Swatch Info, the resulting color chips won’t be using the actual swatches picked — these would become process color copies — while Ink Types are shown as 'Spot' for spots... which are not... and no information about some being 'Global'.

   I realize this connection would have to be monitored, refreshing cards when a swatch is changed...
   But this is what is expected. This is what scripts that offer a similar functionality do.

   If we choose to convert these into process colors, we can just can select one and press the button in the Color panel... yeah, it won’t work for several of these selected, but that’s another problem.

   Ai Beta now keeps spot and global swatches intact when used in Swatch Info. Changing swatches gets updated on canvas, both in values displayed and the color.

4. Multiscreen display problem

   On Windows 11 pro. Multiscreen HP. Launching and Activating (to use), Adobe Illustrator causes multiscreen display, to reset to Landscape and also Disrupt other windows to Minimise and Maximise and change Portrait to Landscape format, without reason.

   This also occurs over one minute, which is a waste of time, when I'm regularly jumping into Adobe Illustrator.

   The layout display setup should be maintained and not be disrupted repeatedly. Please stop changing Windows display format and let the OS do the job.

   I can confirm this is a problem with Adobe Illustrator with a simple test. When I activate ALL other programs, the display returns back to normal, as I have setup. However as soon as I activate Adobe Illustrator, the multiscreen display is completely disrupted in my three(3) screen setup with one portrait view.

   Please fix. I'm unable to use Adobe Illustrator in this current state.

5. Incorrect Blend Mode Appearance When Opening Illustrator 2024 File in Illustrator 2025

   I’ve encountered a potential bug in Illustrator. When I open a file created in Illustrator 2024 (version 28.7.4) in Illustrator 2025 (version 29.2.1), the appearance applied to the text does not display correctly.

   For example, in the attached file, the text at the bottom changes to a completely different design when opened in Illustrator 2025, which is causing a significant problem.

6. [ExtendScript] Cannot set some TextRange.characterAttributes after TextFrame.resize.

   We cannot successfully set some TextFrame.textRange.characterAttributes after the TextFrame has been resized using TextFrame.resize.

   (Tested on MacOS 15.4.1 Adobe Illustrator 29.5.1)

   Steps to reproduce:
   1. Create new document
   2. Run the below script

   Expected Result: all tests passed and no alert message appears.

   Actual result: Failed to set characterAttributes.size to 12.

   Script:

   (function () {
   
       var doc = app.activeDocument,
           textFrame = doc.textFrames.add();
   
       textFrame.textRange.contents = 'Hello.';
   
       textFrame.resize(200, 200);
   
       textFrame.textRange.characterAttributes.size = 12;
       if (textFrame.textRange.characterAttributes.size !== 12)
           alert('Failed to set characterAttributes.size to 12');
   
   })();
   

   NOTE: some other character attributes are "unsettable" also, eg. leading.

7. Contextual Task Bar and Help Bar don’t have hotkeys and these can’t be assigned

   When I check Keyboard Shortcuts, Menu Commands, Window, I can find Control, Properties... but not Contextual Task Bar or Help Bar. So we can’t assign hotkeys for these and call these from keyboard when needed.
   Seems like someone forgot to include these slots for customization. Please expose these.

10. [ExtendScript] Rasterizing group creates two rasterItems

    1. MacOS 15.2.
    2. Adobe Illustrator 29.1
    3. Open demo document (attached) and run script (below).
    4. Should create one RasterItem, but instead creates two.

    Test Script (for use on attached test file):

    
    (function () {
    
        var doc = app.activeDocument;
        var item = doc.groupItems[0];
    
        // Raster Options
        var rasterOpts = new RasterizeOptions;
        rasterOpts.resolution = 192;
        rasterOpts.antiAliasingMethod = AntiAliasingMethod.None;
        rasterOpts.backgroundBlack = false;
        rasterOpts.clippingMask = false;
        rasterOpts.colorModel = RasterizationColorModel.DEFAULTCOLORMODEL;
        rasterOpts.convertTextToOutlines = false;
        rasterOpts.includeLayers = false;
        rasterOpts.padding = 0;
        rasterOpts.transparency = false;
        rasterOpts.convertSpotColors = true;
    
        doc.rasterize(item, item.geometricBounds, rasterOpts);
    
        var count = doc.rasterItems.length;
    
        if (count > 1)
            alert('The rasterization created two images but should have created only one.');
    
    })();
    
    
    

    See also this forum post.

    Edit: Note that the resolution (greater than 191) and the exact position of the group's path items makes a difference.

11. Can't constrain Curvature tool with Shift while moving points

    When using Curvature tool while drawing a line you can use the Shift key to constrain the new point to certain dimensions like you would with pen tool, but if you go back and try to move a point later, the shift key seems to have no effect on movement.

14. Illustrator sometimes stops responding when trying to "save as ..." a recovered file

    Illustrator stops responding when trying to "save as ..." a recovered file, afterwards one of two things happens. Either the application freezes and can only be shut with task manager, or a text box appears saying the printer driver is not compatible and opens the print menu settings

    1. Open illustrator, and textbox appears: "Illustrator just recovered from a crash" etc.
    2. press "ok" to open the document
    3. Document seems to function normally
    4. "Save as" (via file or via keyboard shortcut), destination is local on the computer
    5. Regardless whether it is renamed or not, press "save"

    From here I have had a few different outcomes

    Outcome A
    6. Illustrator looks fine but stops responding when you click
    7. application freezes, loses all interactivity and then needs to be shut down with task manager

    Outcome B
    6. Illustrator stops responding immediately, and after loading for a second, the text box "This printer driver is not supported by illustrator" appears
    7. Press "ok"
    8. standard saving options appear and everything appears to be going smoothly
    9. Then freezes and follows outcome A

    I did eventually managed to save my document with "save" rather than "save as", which followed Outcome B (still complaining about the printer driver which it doesn't usually do) without freezing itself at the end.

    Device: Windows surface studio 2 running Adobe Illustrator 2025 on Windows 11
    File: Recovered locally stored .ai file

    (I'm having issues getting a screen recording running on this laptop sorry)

16. Creative Cloud Fonts wont sync.

    The fonts already installed via Creative Cloud show missing in Illustrator. It also keep removing the font from the font family stating font was unable to be installed due to an error. So every time I open Illustrator or simply start my system there a new font missing. CC sprouts an error regarding a font. Never had this issue before.

17. Pencil tool now smooths way to much, ignores details

    Please enable the former way of working with the pencil tool again.
    The tool now smoothes far too much on its own, even when set to "smooth as little as possible", it is now really inaccurate, small movements are ignored.
    Real free drawing is no longer possible , that is making this wonderful, intuitive tool partially unusable. Only roughly usable for creating character designs, for example. where we need tiny details. Such a shame.

18. Offset path gets applied as a single shape

    I am having an issue where when I offset a path, it adds the path as a single shape. In the past, I could ungroup the new shape and go from there. Now, I am unable to separate the new offset path from the original shape. My next step is to use the minus front feature around another shape. Please help, as I have tried everything from forums to ChatGPT and nothing is working.

19. Snap to Point doesn’t help much to snap an object’s edge to another edge, even with Smart Guides

    'Snap to point' in Illustrator is poor. You cannot currently snap objects together reliably. Results are inconsistent.
    For example:
    1) snapping a point to an edge does not work well, if at all. I have 'snap to point' on and smart guides enabled.
    2) when using constrain with the Shift key, whether they be points or edges. Even with Snap to Point turned on, or using Smart Guides. Just something simple as drag-copying another box adjacent to itself does not snap together the edges.

    In my videos, the first video applies to point 1) and the second video at 10s, you can see that when using 'constrain' there is no information about where the edges are, and snapping of the edges clearly does not work. Not even dragging a corner, which is a point, to the other objects' edge, no snapping or any edge indication.

    Adobe please do not consider this. Please just fix it and make this work, please!

    I was working on a file for more than 4 hours and suddenly my adobe crashed and all of my works were gone like a joke. It got relaunched and I couldn’t find my works it’s vanished.
