Colors not displaying correctly in Illustrator 25.2.1
Colors are displaying brighter and incorrectly in CMYK color mode. I've color calibrated my monitor; restarted my computer; uninstalled/reinstalled Illustrator and still all files pulled into Illustrator are displaying this way.

Illustrator CC 2020 Saving Unknown Error
Illustrator won't let me save my files. I've tried to open another new file to save my files and the same error has occurred unless I have the "Create PDF Compatible File" option turned off. I have never encountered this before and this is my first time encountering this problem.

Textframe bugs out, and won't change color. Had to make new text boxes
Found a bug where a specific text box will NOT ovewrite the color of the text. I tried deleting paragraph styles, making new paragraph styles with different color, character styles and eyedropper tool. I can change weight, italics etc but the color would NOT change, despite the changes appearing in the appearance panels and other areas. Fixed by making new text boxes and moving the copy to those, but an annoying bug for sure.

My colors keep getting dull randomly without changing settings
This has happened repeatedly on different documents. When I select a color, I find that when I look back at the file (without closing the file) in 15-20 minutes, the colors become dull. My settings are in RGB.

Colors in entire file are suddenly completely wrong (when not in pixel preview mode)
I just encountered this bug on macOS 10.14 with Illustrator 2021. After pasting a PNG into my document, the colors of everything suddenly look very different and washed out.
I can "fix" this by using Pixel Preview mode OR "View using CPU", but that slows down my workflow. I even tried opening an earlier version before I pasted the PNG, and the colors are still completely wrong! Can anyone help?

Add title in svg export
I would like a way to add a title to exported SVGs.
You should be able to set this at the artboard level, not just at the document level.
This would greatly improve the accessibility of exported SVGs and simplify workflows.

Bad image quality on Export Asset
If I use Export Asset, fine details in patterns get smeared and destroyed in the resulting bitmap (png). This happens regardless of whether I scale the object up, or export at super high resolution.
If I use normal Export, the detail is as expected. In fact, this happens even at very low resolutions where you naturally expect to lose detail. Regardless, Illustrator does attempt to preserve brightness and detail as best as possible given the resolution when choosing normal Export. But with Export Asset, the behavior is totally different and, honestly, unusable in most cases.

Copy (or Cut) \ Paste: the object appears on the same layer when another layer is selected.
Hello,
1.
Windows 10, Illustrator 25.2
2.
I have an object\s on layer 1. I copy\cut it. Select layer 2, press Paste - the object Appears on layer 1 and layer 2 is still selected.
3.
It should appear on layer 2 as it was before.
4.
I can not copy\paste objects on another layer, I can only move them in Layer Window.3 votesAs per the comment, this often happens if you enable Paste Remembers Layers in the Layers panel’s flyout menu. With it turned on, Ai respect the original layers of pasted objects.

Live corners are stretching
The corners are supposed to be live, but yet they stretch/distort when transforming. Objects with round corners should retain their radii, or I should have the option/keyboard modifier to change this behavior. The radio button in the transform palette is not working.
The options should be scale, distort, or retain current value.

Illustrator 2021 crashes when trying to import AutoCad DWG
Every time I try and open an AutoCAD dwgs in illustrator, the options to choose what scale I want comes up and when I click ok, the whole program crashes and the pop up box comes up asking if I want to send a report to illustrator. I cant open any of my dwg drawings at all!
I've uninstalled and re-installed illustrator many times and updated it to make sure its the latest update and I've turned my computer off and on many times but nothing works. It worked for me before I updated so I think its the latest…

The pencil tool doesn't close the path when you draw small objects
If you draw a small dot with pencil tool it will not close the path. That little circle under the cursor indicating that it will close the path never pops up. So now you have to zoom in if you want to draw small shapes and get a closed path.
Changing the number in the "Close paths when ends are within:" doesn't do anything so that's not the problem. It's a new bug.
This was no issue in CS6. You could hold "Alt" to close the path no matter how tiny shapes you were drawing.

Perte d'une fonctionnalité qui était très pratique : l'arborescence lors de l'import de fichiers DXF.
Depuis la version 25.1 perte d'une fonctionnalité qui était très pratique : l'arborescence lors de l'import de fichiers DXF.
Lors de l'import de fichiers DXF à partir d'un logiciel CAD (Solid Edge), chaque pièce de l'assemblage était reconnue par Illustrator (1 pièce = 1 calque).
Ce n'est plus le cas depuis les dernières mise à jour (dernière mise à jour qui fonctionne : 25.0.1)3 votes
