  1. Illustrator Apple Silicon Bug (Eyedropper issue)

    It is a weird bug that appear on "some file" which trasfered between M chip & Intel chip.
    (It caused lots bug when a file transferred between these 2 chips)

    You can see when I pick a color, it gives me a wrong color (red) which was never used in this file!

    The only way to figured out is ... pick more times ! D:

    Laptop Version:
    MacOS 13.2.1 (for now)

  2. Illustrator 27.3.1 Freaking Lagging on Apple silicon (M1 Max)

    Hi, I updated AI to 27.3.1 today

    But it made a serious Issue
    Especially when I edit an object inside group objects

    Attached Video:

    1. You can see I "double click" my group object (a hand) at 00:00:01
      But it opened this group after 5 second (OMG)

    2. Same as the other actions, each time you see my mouse kept moved around because Illustrator LAGGING around 3-5 sec

    It is super annoying because I can't work!

    1. After that, I re-install old version which under 27.3.1, same Issue with it (before I updated 27.3.1 , worked fine!)

    Laptop: MacOS 13.2.1(for now)
    Apple Sillicon…

  3. auto scrolling artboard

    2019 IMac 27
    3 ghz 6-core i5
    radeon pro 570x 4 gb graphics
    40 gb 2667 mhz ddr4 ram
    Out of nowhere my artboard began scrolling to the right by itself. When the mouse is off the artboard, it stops. I've tried restarting, saving to a new location, restoring to default, and removing and reinstalling the app. All to no avail.

  5. Animated zoom not working in latest version 27.2 for Mac

    Animated zoom is not working on Macbook Pro (Intel). I have checked the "Animated zoom" option under GPU in Performance. Restarted the app too.

    I tried it on another Macbook Pro (M1) and it just doesn't work.

  6. File saving on network issue.

    Using current Illustrator v27..3.1 and files on our Windows network are saving as temp files rather than existing AI files.
    This is a major problem, as if operator is not opening the folder window, they will not see the temp files if they go via FILE>OPEN. Opening the existing file opens up the previous version and all amends are lost!

  7. v27.2. Rulers are glitching out.

    The rulers are only showing when i mouse over them, even though Show Rulers is ON. And when using Direct Select Tool, the anchor points only show on mouse hover, so impossible to edit shapes - as you need to move off the point to grab the handle. I reset my settings to essentials classic, restarted, but no improvement. What to do??

  11. 画像を置き換えで配置すると、操作がおかしくなる

    私だけですか?例えば、WEB製作中、スライダーの画像をいくつか選ぼうとします。1つマスクをかけて、作成します。
    それをコピーして、一つは候補として置いておき、1つの画像を選択し、候補の画像を入れ替えます。ほぼ、1回、前回は2回でそれ以降、イラレがスムーズに機能しなくなります。
    WEB制作で仕事で使っているので非常に困惑しています。
    本日バージョンアップしたのに、治ってなくてがっかり。

  13. Can't adjust leading with Alt+arrow keys.

    When trying to adjust text leading with ALT + Up/Down arrow keys as usual, it doesn't seem to work. It's inconvenient to adjust leading from the character menu.

    This got solved by checking the 'Size/Leading' value in Preferences > Type. For some reason it got changed. This is not the first time something like this happens, and the reason behind this value getting altered is unknown... so it can’t be marked as 'Resolved'. If you have this problem too — please vote and comment.

  17. quick keys for arrange disabled (but menu selection of arrange commands still operate)

    Mac Pro (late 2013) - ai 27.1.1 macos 12.6.3 -

    no conflicting system quick key found
    online forums suggested quitting safari, which did not work
    quitting everything else did not work either
    next step is system reboot, but this is a bug if it requires a system reboot.
