2. Command+V not working in Pantone Connect

   I just had an automatic update for Illustrator version [30.0], and since then, copying the hex code and pasting with shortcut Command+V is not working in the Pantone Connect extension. It seems that it is working with a right click of the mouse, but does anyone have an idea why the shortcut is not working anymore, as this was way faster?
   I'm on Apple M4 Pro 24GB Version 15.6.1 (24G90).

4. 2026 converted RGB file to CMYK, won't go back

   Got a new computer, downloaded Illustrator vs 2026, and signed in to Illustrator. I opened a file, started working on it, and noticed all my colors in the color panel were CMYK. The overall color setting was still RGB in the title at the top, and under color settings. Not only was everything in the color panel CMYK, but all of the options to change that were greyed out. Somehow, opening up a 2025 file in 2026 corrupted my color setting at the panel level and wouldn't let me change them back. I haven't disassembled my old PC, so I pulled up my file in Illustrator 2025, and the colors were RGB at all levels. It was not corrupted on my old setup.

   I am not sure if the bug happened because I didn't upgrade my old Adobe Illustrator on my old computer, and then just started opening files in Adobe Illustrator 2026, so my files didn't get updated to the new software version, or what is happening. This is something that you need to look into, though.

   *I am giggling that I am the only one complaining about my files getting changed to CMYK instead of RGB?

   So I fixed this piece of artwork by creating a new RGB file and copying and pasting my artwork into that new file. No need for anyone to tell me how to fix the problem, but I shouldn't have to continue to copy and paste all my artwork from the old PC to new RGB files because ADOBE has a BUG! Bugs need to be fixed completely!

   Thanks Sj
   PS: If you don't have something nice, good, truthful, kind, and useful, then don't answer me. I deleted my last account on Adobe forums because I got attacked and told I wasn't good enough to be a designer because I asked a question on how to do something after a big update and change (I had just moved from a 2004 version to Creative Suite when it went to subscription, and things were different). If you are that kind of person, your opinion is none of my business, and I will actively work to get you banned if you choose violence. I am no longer a walk-away type of person.

5. Stroke scaling bug in Illustrator even with “Scale Strokes & Effects” enabled

   Hi Adobe team,

   I would like to report an issue regarding stroke behavior in Adobe Illustrator.

   Even with “Scale Strokes & Effects” enabled in both Preferences and the Transform panel, the stroke weight still changes incorrectly when scaling objects. When scaling down, the stroke becomes thinner than expected, and when scaling up, it becomes thicker than it should.

   I noticed that normal strokes behave correctly, including strokes applied in the Appearance panel. However, the issue occurs when I group two or more objects (text/shapes) and then apply a stroke via Appearance on the group. Once the group is scaled, the stroke scales incorrectly.

   This behavior did not happen in earlier versions. On Illustrator v29.5, everything works fine — this issue started to appear in v29.6 and above, and continues in v30.0.

   Troubleshooting steps I’ve already tried:

   • Verified “Scale Strokes & Effects” is enabled
   • Reset Illustrator preferences
   • Cleared cache and restarted the app
   • Tested on multiple files (new and existing)
   • Tested both GPU and CPU preview
   • System reboot

   The issue still persists and affects my workflow, especially when working with icons and UI graphics that require precise stroke consistency.

   System details:

   • OS: Windows 11
   • Illustrator version: 30.0 (v29.5 works correctly; issue starts in v29.6 and above)

   If needed, I can provide a screen recording and sample file to help reproduce the bug.

   Thank you.

   btw. the video attached already enabled ''scale stroke and effect''

6. Using Pen tool does auto switch to add or remove points when cursor is hoving over lines or anchors.

   I'm not sure if this is a new feature or not, but when using the regular pen tool, it usually displays the + or - symbol when it's over anchor points or on lines to indicate whether to add or remove. It doesn't do this now, and I have to manually switch between the 'Remove Point' or 'Add Point' version on the toolbar.

   The 'Disable Auto Add/Delete' option in Preferences > General controls this behavior

7. Highlight anchors on mouse over - across multiple layers

   Previous versions of AI allowed highlight anchors on mouse over that applied to all currently editable layers.

   For example, if there's an circle on layer one, and you start drawing on layer 2 above it, rolling the mouse over the circle highlights it's anchors, so the points you create on layer 2 are exactly over the circle.

   2026 version can do this, but it only sometimes works. Most of the time it doesn't.

   The option saves one from constantly averaging points. It's essential if you're sending files to a laser cutter.

8. 3D objects don’t update

   When you click an extruded object, that you have deselected and want to edit again, the change you do, doesn't seem to update. If I use a slider, it remembers the setting, but the viewport doesn't update for example the extrude depth. I regards all settings though.

10. Pasting an object with perceptual gradient applied expands it and converts into an image

    1. Create a rectangle and fill it with a gradient (liner/radial)
    2. In the gradient panel, change the method from Classic to Perceptual
    3. Copy the object
    4. Paste the object

    Check the Appearance panel — it’d show the object is now an image, with the original perceptual fill tucked under the pixels!
    And if the object had a stroke, it becomes a group with a stroke in it separated.

    The team can reproduce the issue at their side.

11. Circle with thin stroke aligned inside has artifacts in GPU Preview

    I’ve noticed that when I draw a circle with a diameter of 250 mm and a stroke thickness of 0.25 pt, with the stroke alignment set to inside, and then draw another circle with the same stroke thickness but a diameter of 230 mm, the smaller circle shows irregularities in the stroke line (see images).

    When the stroke alignment is set to center, however, the circle is displayed correctly.
    This issue isn’t serious, I just noticed it while working.

14. All options within Window > Type are greyed out when 'Enable Wacom' option is enabled

    Running Illustrator 2026 (version 30.0) on a M4 Pro Mac Mini. Access to all Type options are greyed out (accessed via Window > Type). I noticed that, in the preferences, under Devices, there was an 'Enable Wacom' option, which was checked. (I don't have a Wacom tablet, though I do have an XP-Pen drawing display, though it was not plugged in, and all drivers and extensions were disabled, and I've only used it with Illustrator 2025.) However, I unchecked the option, restarted Illustrator, and all text options were available again.

16. Illustrator 2026 (30.0) saved files contain a large amount of blank space.

    OS: windows 21H2
    Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.0) (desktop)

    In Adobe Illustrator 2026 (version 30.0), files saved with default settings are significantly larger than those from the previous version. Before saving, the action “Delete Unused Panel Items” is executed to remove all unnecessary elements (the Save Options panel as Figure 1).
    A comparison of file sizes with version 29 (with identical content, Figure 2) confirms this increase. When the file is opened as a text document (Figure 3), it reveals a substantial amount of whitespace.

20. Illustrator 29.8.2 saved .ai-file containing outdated pdf-version

    We have a user that several times has encountered a serious bug with saving documents. Currently on version 29.8.2 (the latest available for us in the CC desktop app as of today). Windows 11.

    Attached is an AI file showing the bug. Try opening it in e.g. Photoshop and Illustrator. You get very different versions.

    It is a "PDF compatible file" saved from Illustrator, so it contains a PDF version for other apps to use, but this embedded PDF version shows an older version of the illustrator file (so opening it in Illustrator looks fine, but when using it in e.g. InDesign, you get an old version)!

    Steps (as far as I can gather):

    1. An Illustrator file has been opened in Illustrator 29.8.2.
    2. The illustrator file has been saved (File > Save) - likely a couple of times - then closed.

    Result: AI file with outdated version in the embedded PDF. All other apps show the wrong version.

    To fix it, all we have to do is re-save the file, and then it works. So it's not consistent, and hard to reproduce.

    At least during this last occurence, the user was working from home via VPN, so the network connection was a bit slower than usual if that matters. The Illustrator preferences for saving should be the default settings (attached screenshot). I believe the setting for "slow networks" does so that Illustrator saves the file locally before transferring it, so network speed shouldn't affect the result?

    Since it has happened at least a few times, we now have to manually check every time we save a file if it is actually properly saved (by checking it in InDesign/FrameMaker/etc. to verify the latest changes are included). Not good.
