  5. Illustrator font panels shows wrong data

    When I have a text selected on Illustrator, the fonts panel shows a wrong font, it shows a font what I previously selected for a different text and not the font that the selected text actually is.
    in other words, I cannot see what font is used unless I copy the text, and find the font that looks the same.

    Same thing with font size etc. if I have a text active and the font size is for example 47 px, and I just changed a different text size to 15 px, the fonts panel shows that all of my…

  8. Apple M1 Illustrator tool problem

    I am using the new iMac mini with M1 chip and I am trying to use illustrator for the first time. Photoshop works great, InDesign works fine...but illustrator has issues. All of the tools in the tool bar, when I try to select a line, type, point, etc. are shaky and flashing other tool symbols in a strobe-like effect. I need to use this app! Please help!

  9. Disappearing Blinking Cursor

    This was previously listed as COMPLETED for "Dialog box text selection missing blinking cursor", but the fact is that this issue is STILL occurring.

    Can you all please fix this blinking cursor issue? This has been happening for a while now and it still hasn't been fixed. Some people have suggested that resetting the preferences fixes this issue, but resetting the preferences does NOT fix the issue.

    It seems to occur when you change the "User Interface" color to either the lightest grey or the 2nd to lightest grey (see attached file).

    When you change your User Interface to one…

  12. Files save backwards

    Saving files (even new ones) is not functioning correctly. I will save a document only to next make a PDF for client review and go back to make changes and either nothing is there or the file is saved as a previous revision, not the one I saved as. Very harmful for my work environment. This is a MAJOR issue, not a minor bug.

  17. Layer's not working - Bring Forward Not working

    I have tried various ways to get this graphic to show OVERTOP of the blue box. At first I tried just the "object arrange bring to front" and after that didn't work for some reason, I just used the layer panel. As you can see... even having the head on the top later OVER the bottom layer... it still will not show upfront.

  18. alt + mouse

    When holding down alt and moving the mouse, the cursor lags almost like it is being processed at 10 fps. I'm using all high-end components, so it's not an issue with processing power.

  19. Image trace does not limit colors in grayscale

    When using the grayscale mode in image trace and limiting the number of colors image trace creates an unlimited range of grays. I selected ten grays, expanded, and when clicking "re-color artwork", more grays than I would waste time counting are shown (at least 50, but maybe more).
