Do not scale text when you have a text style applied
When I have selected multiple blocks of text or lines of text, I would like the option to scale the bounds as if I were selecting only one field, without scaling the font size — especially when a font style is applied. Alternatively, it would be helpful to have an option within the font styles to lock scaling. I often work on menus and need to lock scaling when moving or resizing groups of items. I wouldn’t mind needing to manually update the font style if I choose to scale text after locking document scaling.

Ao arrastar uma prancheta, a arte que está nela não acompanha a trajetória da prancheta
Ao arrastar uma prancheta, a arte que está nela não acompanha a trajetória da prancheta. No vídeo demostro o bug, em momento algum removi o dedo do trackpad ou parei de pressioná-lo. Isso atrapalha muito a organização das minhas pranchetas no arquivo

Recolor doesn’t allow to change white or black with a first try
I use the Recolor (color mixer / wheel) daily. I have come across an annoying bug.
Some base colors will be automatically 'locked' in the color mixer, indicated by a '-'. For example, let's say I'm trying to turn white into red.
- First, white needs to be unlocked. By clicking the '-', it will become an arrow '->', and the swatch should be toggle-able now.
- The first time you toggle the white, it selects, sliders can be moved to make it red, but it doesn't stay adjusted; it reverts back to whites.

Text tool inserting wrong style
If I have text typed out, then I try to change one letter it changes my font. For example I have the would "hot" typed in acumin regular, then I go to change the word to "got" and it might make the "g" bold or condensed or just an different style that is on the document. I am not using paragraph styles or character styles.

Add “...” to the menu items of the modal dialog
en
In macOS apps, it is customary to append “...” to menu items that require the user to perform additional actions after selecting the menu item (e.g., modal dialogs). This is found in the Human Interface Guidelines | Apple Developer Documentation.

Illustrator 2025 (29.4) followed this rule, but Illustrator 2025 (29.5) has departed from this rule for a few items.
- File > Generate Vectors
- Object > Generate Vectors
- Object > Gen Shape Fill

The change should be allowed if it is intentional, but seeing that the other items still follow the rules, it…

Strokes smaller than 1 pt (or 1 mm) become zero when Stroke Weight down arrow key button is used
If you set a stroke to 1 pt and click Stroke Weight down arrow key button, it correctly goes to the next smaller value from the dropdown — 0.75 pt.
But if you do the same with 0.95 or anything smaller than 1 pt, clicking this button instantly makes it zero, skipping all the smaller values.It’s even worse if you set stroke units to be non-points — even though there are plenty of smaller values in the dropdown, and 1 mm is much larger than a point, it goes 0 too.
While Cmd/Ctrl+arrow (not recorded) works fine with points,…

Issue with Reading Variable Data from DataSet in Illustrator 29.5
Dear Adobe Support Team,
I am reaching out to report an issue with Adobe Illustrator (version 29.5) regarding the inability to read variable data from a DataSet object in a script, even though the dataset is correctly loaded and updates the document content as expected.
Problem Description
I have a script that processes a CSV file to generate PDF files using variable data in Illustrator. The CSV file contains columns "Cislo" (number) and "JMENO" (name), and it is correctly loaded into Illustrator as a dataset (via Window > Utilities > Variables > Load Variable Library). The dataset updates the document…1 vote -
Fonts used previously won’t load and miss in the document
Many of the fonts aren't opening properly on the working files from the previous version of IIllustrator. It appears as I have no these fonts, but I sure had yesterday in 2024 version, so it's there :d

Sudden and constant "Out of GPU memory" error, Ai 29.4
I am suddenly getting constant "Out of GPU memory" errors, which renders all the graphics in "Outline" view, and crashes Illustrator. It just started occurring today (Wednesday April 23, 2025). Yesterday everything was fine.
Mac Studio, M2 Max, 64 GB RAM, Sonoma. Ai 29.4My CS6 version of Illustrator at home on an old Mac, runs so much better than anything coming out of Adobe ever since this Creative Cloud debacle disaster!

File with links to the same filename, when folder is moved, tries to open itself
Suppose a file X have links to file Y with the same name but in other folder. If you move the original file so Illustrator can't find Y, it then tries to open the filename in its own folder and find the file itself (X). Multiple links cause the message "the file is already opened"

Artboard Tool doesn’t create artboards based on a clicked object with an expected precision
When using the Artboard Tool to click on an object, an artboard should be created accordingly. However, this feature rarely works as expected, and the success rate is unacceptably low. We kindly request improvements to ensure more consistent and reliable performance.

Rasterizing an object inside of a clipping group flattens the clipping group itself
If we need to rasterize one selected object inside of the clipping group, we have to isolate the object to avoid flattening the clipping group. Isolating only the clipping group won’t help, we have to 'drill into' the object specifically!
This doesn’t happen for simple groups — with these we don’t have to isolate anything at all, just selecting a child is enough.
Thanks to Junior Rocha for raising this up.

Shortcut for Split Into Grid
I previously had a custom shortcut assigned to the “Split Into Grid” command, and it was incredibly useful. However, it seems that this shortcut no longer works and the command has been removed from the Illustrator keyboard shortcuts menu, preventing me from reassigning it.
I truly hope this feature can be reinstated, as it significantly streamlines the workflow and enhances productivity.
Thank you!

Enough with the memory sucking "upgrades" already!
Hey Adobe, you've already forced us all to pay more for your subscription based software model now, so maybe instead of focusing so ******* building memory sucking AI generative tools for people who aren't artists, you should provide a version for the folks who don't need all this new ****. Stop messing with perfectly good and functional software that real artists want to use! I can't even tell you how many times the recent releases have crashed and I lost all my work, it's incredibly frustrating! I have a new macbook pro that can handle the demand, so the problems…

Edit Gradient Issue
As you can tell by the picture, I've clicked on an object that already has a gradient, but it does not give me the option to click 'Edit Gradient' and it does not already show me the gradient line over top of the object so I can manipulate the sliders. However, when I clicked on the object below (which also has a gradient) it did give me the option to click "Edit Gradient"

Mesh Envelope Distortion renders as shifted on Large Canvas
Taka look at the files attached.
Envelopes on large canvas render their distorted content shifted, compared to normal canvas.
It’s a bug similar to brushes: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/41713246
Perhaps it’s time to fix these?2 votes
