  2. artwork moving when i select on my macbook pro 2023

    When I click to select artwork/objects on my 2023 macbook pro the artwork jumps position, I'm not dragging the artwork and didn't have the issue on earlier macbook (2017) or my 2019 imac. Makes working in illustator really awkward and is frustrating!

  3. Crashes when a path segment is moved

    Whenever I am attempting to move an object and inadvertently grab a path segment instead of a point, there is a 50% chance Illustrator will crash. This has been a problem for over two years.

  4. APPLICATION TAB CLOSING

    Every time I go from the layers/character or any other tab to the properties tab/bar it closes the entire application tab group on the side, then I have to go open it in windows.

  5. Save then multiple Redo (using keyboard shortcut) Crashes Illustrator

    Some times, I hit save instead of save as. I then undo a few steps and save. I then hit redo a few time in rapid succession and illustrator crashes.

  6. Autosave not working

    In the latest update from Illustrator, my auto save is not working (despite being selected in Preferences).
    I've lost at least three hours' worth of work in the past two weeks. I habitually save, but if I only remember once every half hour or hour and then Illustrator crashes (which it also keeps doing) none of my work is being recovered.

    In the eight years I have been using this program, that has never happened.

    What gives? Major waste of my time and also irritating AF

  8. Shortcut for "New from template" does not always work on the home screen

    Open a fresh instance of Illustrator 2024 mac, use the CMD+Shift+N shortcut to open the new from template window, close it and try again. Most often the shortcut does not work. This is also the case if the shortcut is used after closing a file and returning to the home screen.

  9. a bug about importing vectorgraph

    After importing a vector graph (pdf file), the vector graph appears very weird in the Adobe illustrator 2021. The imported pdf file seems to be covered with mosaics.

    My PC is Macbook 2022 M2 . Previously, all look very well in another computer (Intel chip). I have no idea about what this bug should be attributed to? my computer system or Adobe illustrator 2021?

  10. Switch window now blocked with an illegal action sound

    When I've got windows open on two monitors, when trying to pick the window on my second monitor (and sometimes on my primary monitor), there is a bing (noise to say I'm doing an illegal action) and it doesn't allow me to do it. This has only started since the last update and is not consistent. The way round I've found for it is to go the Window menu and pick the file on my second monitor and then it's all back to normal again.

  11. Huion Tablet and Windows Ink

    I have the last version of Windows 11. Only on illustrator. I have a Huion tablet and the pen only has pressure when windows ink is activated. But as soon as windows ink is activated, it becomes almost impossible to click and drag any object with the pen, enter a group or chose a new tool (but no problem with the trackpad). So i have to chose between being able to work efficiently but drawing without pressure OR drawing with pressure but having debilitating lagging.

    Is there a way to keep the pressure activated without activating windows ink ?

  12. Heavy lag in Illustrator using Apple M2

    I just installed Illustrator 28 on my brand new MacBook Pro M2 (16GB RAM, 512GB Storage), a pretty well specced machine. Mac OS Sonoma 14.0.

    I'm experiencing heavy lags in multiple forms: When typing text, when moving paths or objects.
    This happens when "View using GPU" is enabled. Without it the lag is gone, but other graphical bugs seem to occur, so this is not an option for too long.
    I uninstalled AI and reinstalled it freshly, not keeping my settings to rule out this as a possible cause. Issue is still there.

    I need a fix as soon as…

  13. Taper

    I was thinking about this for a time now, what if we could have taper ability for shapes?

    To elaborate, here we have a rectangle (video) and to adjust it we got to select one anchor, bring it in, other anchor, check if they are symmetrical, and bring other anchor in

    What if there would be a taper that will simultaneously pull two desired anchors inwards or outwards?

  16. Pattern problem when making PDF

    Artist created an ILL file in 27.9 version, using Pattern Swatches and also used a transparency on that pattern in the art. When PDF is created and opened, I get an error:
    "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem."

    The pattern does not display at all along with this display in Acrobat.

    I did a test and replaced my version of 27.9 ILL to version 27.0. And it works perfectly. PDF does not flag an issue and RIPS properly as well.…

  19. Share for a review can't update

    When I try to update the file In Illustrator so the last changes are applied I get this message: there was an error updating the artefact. It happens occasionally but when I try second time to update mostly it works. This is the first link I cannot update for a review, I have at least 10 other jobs I share with 20 other people and they all work.
