Cannot deactivate "Embed ICC profile" in Asset Export
When using the Asset Export panel, if you go into a JPG preset and uncheck "Embed ICC Profile" and then click "Save Settings", the setting will not save. It will always embed the profile. If you reopen that preset, the option is always checked. Any exported file does have the ICC profile embedded.

Objects imported from SVG have their gradients turned upside down
Illustrator 24.2 on Windows 10 PC.
Open the attached SVG file. Select the rectangle with the gradient. Now select the Rectangle tool and create another rectangle which will inherit the look of the first rectangle. Now we have two rectangles on the canvas which look the same.
Yet their appearance in the Appearance panel is different — the imported object has the red color on the bottom while the newly created object has the red color on the top.
It's not simply a cosmetic issue — if you drag and drop the appearance of the imported rectangle to another object,…

One object in a selection is always a key object
Previous Ai update came with an issue where I can't fully hide edges unless objects are grouped which, to me, is an inefficiency. There were other glitches as well, which appear to have been resolved with the closely-following most recent update.

New Illustrator 2020 laggy and slow on the simplest of tasks
Illustrator 2020 is really laggy and slow, only when completing simple tasks like colour picking, moving art-boards, selecting different objects, or even just wanting to zoom in or out.
4 votesGeneral slowness on using Illustrator on Mac is one of the major issues reported in this thread. Illustrator team made significant progress in replacing Illustrator’s GPU rendering engine from OpenGL to macOS Native Metal Rendering Engine – https://developer.apple.com/metal/.
We have observed common operations like Zoom, Pan, and rendering operations are now smoother in cases where it was sluggish as reported in this thread. We urge Mac users to try the Illustrator Beta build with Metal support and share your feedback.
Please note, this may not address other performance issues reported in this thread not related to rendering like File Save, Export, or slowness in any particular feature.This build is available in Illustrator Prerelease Download Section – https://www.adobeprerelease.com/beta/85A6F544-2705-49BD-8314-DD549C6A1713

illustrator exporting bug.
When i export in the latest version, the file name reverts back to an older file name and tries to save it in the previous location. I need it to export as the same name as the ai file and in the same location as the current ai file. I've never had this issue in any older versions of illustrator.

"Horizontal Distribute" buttons broken in Illustrator 24.2.1
Illustrator version 24.2.1 on Mac OS 10.14.6 When multiple objects in a row are selected and any of the Horizontal Distribute buttons are hit, the objects are stacked on top of each other instead of distributed out based on farthest left to right. It appears to be copying the function of Horizontal Align buttons.

New update, stroke profile bug
Just got the latest update and now my Width profile 3 on stroke settings is adding these little rounded bumps to the corners that were (prior to update) sharp. The end points are also slightly curved. Right side does not have bumps but has same curve when points on this profile used to be sharp. All of my settings and prefs have stayed the same. I use this stroke profile alot so I noticed this issue right away. Please fix. Photo attached.
Thanks

Align Text box with Object
Using Windows 7 or High Sierra and Illustrator 24.2
Align text with any object is not aligned properly. Presently it takes text box and actual height/width of text and aligns object width/height.
I understand this is way Illustrator text work, but can changed/update so can properly aligns. Hoping to get it resolved in near coming versions.
The alignment should work like Indesign or any vector program. Check attachment.
3 votesYou can now choose to align to preview bound of a type object, using Align to Glyph Bounds option in Align panel’s menu.
Please comment back if you have any problems with that.
