High Sierra (macOS 10.13) GPU rendering issues with RGB document - Intel Graphics

Illustrator 21.1.0 has issues with GPU rendering in the latest High Sierra public betas:

Paths will appear jagged and generally do not display correctly.

Altering the zoom level affects these artefacts.

Switching off GPU rendering altogether fixes the issue but this way, performance is obviously affected.

Additional Note: Works correctly in CMYK document.

    In Illustrator

    Go to Preferences > GPU Performance
    Untick box -GPU Performance.

    This fixed the bug for me.

    I lost two whole days at work just because of this bug. Am I getting a discount or an apology ?
    No!
    What happens if I dont pay to adobe each month? do I get a couple of extra days to pay up?
    No!
    unbelievable.

    Are you for sure, Adobe? How about fixing such problems instead of spamming useless XD updates when everybody is on Sketch and waiting for InVision Studio?

    I wonder if I can call my state's AG's office about a fraud complaint? 🤔

  • Tomasz commented  ·   ·  Report

    Still. Come one how long will it take? People need to work. Spending huge many on the computers and cannot work on it. Bollocks!

  • Petr Belák commented  ·   ·  Report

    Come on! I've got the same problem in Design too. Every year you are worse and worse. I hope you do some compensation for us. Wake up! THX

    This is super frustrating. Just bought a new MacBook Pro 13-inch without Touch Bar to speed up my workflow but the result is the opposite. Please fix this asap.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    I'm experiencing the same problems and increasingly frustrated!

    As well as record low rendering time/quality for After Effects with a brand new Macbook Pro 13-inch.

    WHAT IS THE DEAL? I WANT A STRAIGHT RESPONSE....ie. "WE CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT." This is Major. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON

  • Roberto Wagner commented  ·   ·  Report

    For christ sake, you have to do something about this issue. I can't work on my computer and I have paid Apple a good amount of money and I pay Adobe every month. Meanwhile, people with hackintoshs and cracked software are working smoothly.

    After upgrading to High Sierra, I started to see all the files I opened, as if they had white strokes, or as if I had used the eraser on them, when I moved them around or modified their scale they looked good, and , they were varying, the error was removed, disabling the performance by GPU

    Alternatively I can pass the feedback to apple? Nope.
    Alternatively I can switch to Affinity.
    Goodbye Adobe 😒

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    So, how long Adobe? Another month? Another year? Two more lawsuits? What will it take. Well I'm switching to Affinity ASAP. Bye.

  • dumb commented  ·   ·  Report

    Hey Ashutosh, can you add the link to the class-action lawsuit against Adobe for fraud? Thanks.

    Months of dues and no useable product...

  • Elena Pomfret commented  ·   ·  Report

    I am sick of this problem, it is really affecting my workflow. This problem has been going on for months and it seems that nothing is being solved.

    It was the worst feeling the other day when my monthly amount came out of my bank account for a product I can't even use. I am disgusted in Adobe- where is our compensation?

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    I don't even have the option to disable the "Automatic graphics switching" on my energy saver settings, so I'm still left without even a workaround. It takes twice as long to design things with this glitch!
