When moving a vector with a radial gradient fill, the gradient shifts upon export of an SVG
Gradient appears to be centered in Illustrator, but shifts on export depending on where the vector is located on the artboard/pasteboard (outside the artboard). I have to manually update the SVG markup on all my exported icons. :(
2 votesA sample file would have helped. I applied radial gradient on a circle and exported it to SVG. The visual appearance was matched. There are some limitations in SVG 1.1 spec like absence of blending mode support that can affect.

Cannot view 150% zoom level
- Illustrator CC 20.1 (64-bit); Windows 10-64
- Trying to zoom to 150% by selecting the preset option from the zoom drop-down menu, or using Ctrl++
- Expected result: document is shown at 150% zoom (actual size due to DPI scaling issues)
- Actual result: zoom preset goes to 200% and document is shown at 200%. This only happens with this document and not others; it contains both vector and raster data. For some reason I can zoom at every other preset except 150% (true actual size)

Illustrator not recognizing Arial font after setting up new computer
HI All, Sorry if this is posted in the wrong spot, but this is my first post. I recently set up a new work computer (MacBook pro, High Sierra 10.13.6 ) to replace my older computer. I have typically made PDF's in illustrator using Arial font, but now when I open these older PDF's the text id highlighted as when the font is not recognized . as well if I import Arial text from excel it pastes it as symbols.
When I look for Arial in my type pull down it is not available and when I look in the…
1 voteIt is possible there is a font conflict and you have multiple version of Ariel on your machine. e.g. a TTF and another OTF

Visual glitch prevents using Illustrator when file is opened from Finder before launching Illustrator
As the title describes, this glitch occurs consistently whenever launching a file from finder before launching Illustrator.
The file seems to open, as the layers can be seen in the layers window, but the main document editing window is occupied by the welcome menu. The welcome menu cannot be closed, and the files shown in the recent section cannot be opened. See image 1.
The only way to exit the menu without closing Illustrator is to open another Illustrator file through Finder or through File > Open. Then, another visual glitch will take place: the tabs used to select the…

Let's fix Adobe's attitude!
Recently seeing this thread on Illustrator performance really irked me.
11 replies to a topic with users in agreeance, and yet Admin says "Nothing actionable"

Masking in Illustrator not Working
The masking isn't behaving as normal in illustrator CC. I'm not sure if something is amiss on my end, but my standard workflow isn't giving me the results I'm expecting.

Shapes won't change to colours saved to Libraries
I have multiple colour palettes saved in my Libraries which I will use through Illustrator/Photoshop/Indesign. Frustratingly, as I am in the middle of working on a design using basic shapes (rectangles, ellipses etc) and go to change the colour of that shape by clicking on a shade within my libraries it will not change! The shape will change colour when using colours from the swatches palette always. I end up having to quit Illustrator and restart it then colours from my library will work again.

Picking a colour from the Library, randomly opens the colour picker
I've got a shared library with assets and colours to use in the work we're doing. When I have an object selected and I pick the colour from the library, it's 50/50 if the colour picker dialog box is going to open or not. I don't want it to open, I've clicked the colour I want to use, so why does it pop up and get in the way? Really annoying!!

tab
Above the top ruler I should be able to see a tab, or multiple tabs when several files are open. However all that is shown is a cropped "Ai" ident. This means the only way I can flick between files is by through "Window" in the top panel.

Paste on All Artboards Not Working
I have a design on a single artboard. I want to paste it to other artboards to prepare my color separations for screen printing. When I cut the design and select Paste on All Artboards, it pastes the design the correct amount of times...but NOT on the artboards. It pastes them out in the gray area. I have tried different artboard arrangements, and having different artboards active at the time of paste, but the designs still end up not on the artboards.
5 votesIt is not clear to me if artboards are of same size or different sizes. When we paste an art we take into account artwork’s relative position from the artwork where it was coped from. I have attached a gif to demonstrate my point. if you look at the second circle it is placed outside of other artboards due to relative position in its original artboard.

the font style file has not been installed
Just recently purchased CC 2018. Although I have been using Illustrator since 1998, this is the first time I have worked with CC. And I'm having issues with the Type in Illustrator - it seems the font style file has not been installed [???] - for example with the Font Myriad Pro - there should be an option of regular, regular italic, bold, bold italic, etc - I can only get regular.
This issue HAS to be resolved or there is no point in continuing to use CC 2018. Please let me know what I need to do - does…

No change. I uninstalled, then reinstalled. No change. I restarted my computer. No change. I can't work with it like this. How do I get this fixed?
