  2. Pattern fill pixelation

    Zooming into an object filled with a pattern shows raster pixelation in the pattern. If you select the object and move it slightly or change its view, then the pattern is updated and looks vectored. This is annoying. I just want it to update and look clean when I am using the zoom tool.

  3. Illustrator Freezes when trying to scroll fonts

    When text is highlighted, and I go to change the font and use the scroll bar on the right to scroll down, the program freezes indefinitely.

    No custom fonts installed.

    2021 Macbook Pro M1 running Sonoma MacOs 14.3.1 (23D60). No other applications open.

    I used the MacOs Screenshot App to record the bug in action. However - when recording my screen, the bug does NOT happen. I tested this multiple times. Talk about the observer effect...

    In order to capture the bug, I used my phone to record. I tested this multiple times. I'm attaching both videos below.

  4. Illustrator Crashes When Trying To View Using CPU or Pixel Preview (All Versions)

    Been happening for quite some time now. When trying to view a pixel preview of my document it will hang then crash. Same exact thing happens if I try to "view using CPU". Also have been getting a weird "hairline" pink line around non-stroked objects.

    Attached pictures of the pink outline around the gray in the one picture and another around the white and the gray. It seems to change as I zoom in and out which makes me think it's a rendering/driver bug. I think this issue and the original crashing when trying to select CPU or Pixel Preview…

  5. 'Creative Cloud Files' folder shortcut keeps appearing in Finder side bar

    I delete this shortcut every time it reappears, how can I stop it from reappearing? I thought Adobe deprecated the file sync? I have been seeing notifications about it going away in February 2024.

    Anyways, it's annoying, i've never used CC file storage, it would be great to be able to completely remove it from the UI.

  6. Apple M1 macOS Sonoma 14.3.1 - Terriblement lent !!! 😪😡

    Depuis que j'ai fait la MÀJ de Ventura (macOS 13.x) vers Sonoma (14.x), le logiciel Illustration est terriblement lent, ça me fait perdre un temps fou! Mon document est simple et léger (102 ko). Lorsque je déplace mes éléments ou même que je fasse une recherche dans (Menu > Aide).

  7. Typo causes harsh generative AI warning

    My prompt for generative AI was "abscract [sic] background with 4 quotations". Illustrator threw a red warning: "One or more of your terms violate guidelines". I couldn't capture the screen because the warning disappeared quickly. When I corrected the spelling to "abstract" it generated results without a warning. Seems the warning should be a little different for this.

  8. Crashes daily, usually over night. Can't keep loaded for more than 24 hours.

    Windows 11, 65gb ram, 2tb ssd, desktop. Version of Illustrator is latest, always do updates and owned a subscription for 5-6 years.

    Why am I here? I can't figure out this help system, or generally no help at all. I usually never file bug reports because I don't expect any support for my money and have grown desperate with the daily crashes and losing edits.

    I am sorry if my description is limited, as the crashes usually occur over night. The computer is never put to sleep and only the screen saver is running. I have no add-ons. My installation…

  10. Lag on cursor and selections "sticking" to the cursor

    There is a lag on all selections in Illustrator 28.2. When I select any item I literally have to wait 2-3 seconds before I can move my cursor, else the selection "sticks" to my cursor and moves with it until I click again to drop it and then I have to ⌘Z to send the selection back to it's intended location so I can make the changes I need to make. SUPER FRUSTRATING.

    I have a new Macbook Pro with loads of RAM and never had this issue until the latest Illustrator update.

    Thank goodness I have Affinity Designer installed,…

  13. Snap to point

    Why not have snap to point regardless of what magnification you're at. I'm sick of having to waste my precious time zooming right in to make sure object lines and points are snapped together and aligned properly.

    This issue has been going on for a long time, and never gets fixed. I know others on forums have this issue as well...it's universal, not just me!

    I do hope someone reads this and actually does something about this issue, but I'm not expecting anything to be honest, because you haven't bothered to fix it for a long time now.

  15. Older name is used in Share for Review

    When sending for review, I have shared it with my alternate email, and it keeps pulling up my former name- this was changed on my account setting in google admin, as well as my contacts list. How can I find out where it is finding and autopoulating my old name?

  17. Artifacts and unable to render Mask

    Good day.

    I'm having troubles rendering an Opacity Mask. I attach the screenshots of the differences. When I change to CPU Preview, the file renders normally but when I change to GPU preview it shows as the image attached. The problem also affects some blending modes like Color Burn which do not render correctly neither in GPU or CPU Preview.

    My system is as follows:

    -Asus B550M-A
    -Ryzen 5 5600x
    -32gb Corsair Vengeance DD4 3600MHz RAM
    -Sapphire AMD RX 6700XT 16GB

    Illustrator Version 28.2 (64 bits)

  19. Turning off hinting does nothing.

    I have a font with poor hinting where the alignment of several letters isn't working properly. When I select 'none' from the drop-down menu for hinting in the character panel, nothing changes. In previous versions of Illustrator, this is used to treat the letters as standard vectors.

  20. Color profiles are silently discarded for the placed screenshot thumbnails on Mac

    Can we fix the strange discarding of the color profile when dragging a screenshot thumbnail into an open Illustrator document (Mas OS — Command+shift+4, or Command+shift+3, or Command+shift+5). The thumbnail appears in the corner of the screen prior to the screenshot being saved to the Desktop.

    Using File>Place, or copying/pasting from any other program, or even dragging and dropping a screenshot from the desktop or other folder all cue a warning if there is a profile mismatch. And to my experience, placing in any of those ways does not change the document profile, regardless of what I choose when the…
