  2. color picker - thin grey line between comparison swatches

    Today I noticed a thin grey line between the comparison color swatches on my color picker window. It puts a border between the swatches, meaning I can't directly compare their color. It's driving me nuts!

    I checked with coworkers, I'm the only one having this issue. It happens regardless of what document I'm working on. All my coworkers and myself are using the latest version of illustrator CC and are using up-to-date windows 10.

  3. BUG: Undo function now resets after ctrl. c

    Before the recent update, I could press undo to go back to a previous item, copy it (without moving or altering it in any way), and REDO all the actions over and paste that copied item but now when i just press copy, it resets so I can't redo!

  4. Asset Export

    Illustrator 2022 - When using the asset export window with one of the file types being set to SVG, the resulting SVG MAC OS finder previews show up as empty artboards. If you open them in illustrator the art is there, but way off on the canvas and I have to manually select all then align them to the center of the artboard. Very annoying. This never happened with Illustrator 2020.

  5. Discover panel’s videos don’t have Full Screen button

    OK, I am a new user and want to use Discover to make some learning.
    Illustrator shows me the video of steps I need to perform.
    How on Earth am I going to view these that small, if I am not familiar with the UI? What good do they make being shrunk like this?

    Also, when you try to see maybe the cog button has something useful, the video covers the menu. Just great.

    And even if you find the 'Read article in a browser' link, it’s somewhere deep below, and you have to scroll all the way down.
    Good…

    投稿をありがとうございました。上記にもございますように、開発に取り掛かっております。他にも同様の事象が見つかっております。


    以下に、英語ですが開発より記事の投稿がございますので、ご参照ください。

    https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/issue-with-illustrator-about-the-color-image/m-p/12981944#M323943

    <日本語訳>

    ご迷惑をおかけして申し訳ございません。弊社では、この問題を再現することができます。すでに製品チームにバグを記録しており、現在調査中です。


    この問題は、リンクされた画像を含むAiファイルで発生しています。保存時に「リンク先のファイルを含める」を選択し、再度開くと、Aiファイルの画像が反転したり、黄色く見えたりします。


    これを回避するために、以下の手順をお試しください。

    ●ドキュメントに画像を埋め込む

    ●「リンク先のファイルを含む」のチェックを外す

    ●旧バージョンのIllustratorにダウングレードする


    こちらをお試しいただき、うまく機能したかどうか、またお知らせをいただけますと幸いです。

    どうもありがとうございます。

  9. Insane Bloatware Devouring my RAM

    Holy **** Adobe. I am not going to be professional or even reasonable in this email because THIS IS ******* RIDICULOUS. WHY are the 30+ background programs running that are literally impossible to kill, and will launch even if they are not on the startup list!!!!! Your absolute garbage approach to managing these background tasks has essentially rendered my PC useless. I am ******* angry and honestly I want my money back for Illustrator because this is complete horse ****. How can you honestly sleep at night as a developer knowing how embarrassingly poor this software suite is set up?…

  10. New Document modal misalignment

    When starting a new file, the modal that pops up where you can determine the document properties/preset details (title, size, orientation, bleed, color space, etc.) has the values for title, dimensions and bleed misaligned inside their bounding boxes.

  11. "Expand Appearance" does not expand my blend tool results

    Ive created the below highlighted graphic using the line tool, then applying arrowheads. I used the blend tool to create the in-between lines but needed the lines to be individually editable. Any reason why expand appearance messes up my arrowheads?

  13. Clipping compound shape doesn't have edges drawn

    When a compound shape (not a compound path, but a live result of any Pathfinder operation) is used as a clipping mask, Illustrator does not display edges for the resulting objects.

    1. View > Hide Bounding Box (for clarity, to see the issue better)
    2. Draw anything
    3. Create two intersecting rectangles
    4. Select these two rectangles, hold Alt and click Unite in Pathfinder panel to get a live compound shape
    5. Select both the compound shape and the art below
    6. Object > Clipping Mask > Make

    The resulting object has no edges drawn and can’t be seen as selected, until you enable the bounding…

  14. Show grid shortcut not working on macOS Monterey

    The show grid keyboard shortcut cmd + ' is not working on my illustrator. I have to go through the menu to toggle it on and off.
    It starts working when I restart my computer but then starts bugging out again.

  15. When using gaussian blur or outer glow on top of a gradient object, the gradient underneath becomes transparent.

    The object in the pictures shown is applied the outer glow effect. When I place the object on top of the shape applied with gradient colors, the gradient becomes transparent as the glow appears to have disappeared.

  16. SVGs are missing elements when opening with Illustrator (and PhotoShop too)

    For the last several weeks I've discovered that opening SVGs with Illustrator (and PhotoShop in fact) results in a significant portion of the artwork being missing. I've opened over 100 SVGs from multiple sources and every single one is missing elements when opened in Illustrator. When opened in Inkscape or Google Chrome the SVGs are fine. See attachments for an example SVG file from the web.

    My work is almost solely in SVG for compatibility with other devices (laser cutter, etc), and not being able to successfully open ANY SVG is incredibly disruptive. I can export from Inkscape as EPS…

  17. Navigation bar info in lower left gets displayed in wrong location

    I have 3 monitors.
    2 are 27" 4K resolution, and the third is a 24" XP-PEN Pen display (2560x1440), which is where Illustrator always starts and runs in full-screen.

    Illustrator apparently cannot always figure out how to calculate all its object locations, since the navigation info on the bottom bar on each file open lands UP the screen, when opening an Illustrator document and Illustrator is in Maximized mode.
    See first attached screenshot.

    If I then click the "Restore" button (upper right in any Windows app window), in effect forcing Illustrator to repaint its entire app area, then suddenly the…

  18. Whole compound path gets affected when rounding a corner

    I have added a few shapes and then wanted to round only 2 anchor points, but as you can see here, other points are affected, even though they are NOT selected

  20. Bug: Export to SVG messing up illustration

    When i export an artboard or selection to svg it messes up the location of some parts of the illustration while exporting to other formats (png) works correct. I use illustrator version 26.3.1. I have like 20 other artboards with other illustrations, all messed up. Like a month ago it still worked.

    Attachment:
    header mobile@2x.png (export as png works correct)
    Screenshot of svg (Needed to make screenshot cause i cant upload an svg)

    Hopefully this will get fixed soon, or get a workaround, cause I cant deliver any products to my client now.
