Illustrator turning all PNGs into negatives (with or without yellow background) after saving and reopening document
I'm on Windows 10 pro, version 21H1. The version of illustrator I have is 26.3.1.
When working on a document, CMYK or RGB, in illustrator with my Adobe color settings synced across all programs, all PNGs whether 16 bit or 8 bit turn negative. I've attached before and after screenshots.I've never had this happen before and I work with PNGs everyday, I spoke to and adobe support rep yesterday and gave them an AI filer where I tested PNGs vs JPEGs out. JPEGs are totally fine, only issue is with placing PNGs and I rather place a PNG than…

Paste in Place does not work properly
So I'm having problems with the Paste in Place command, sometimes it works great when I Copy or Cut something and paste it on other artboards but most of the times it is not working properly, either what I copied o cut get outside the drawing area or it goes to a random place, and at first I thought I wasn't selecting the artboard but even with the artboard selected it falls anywhere. I'm running Illustrator CC 2019, on windows 10.

Color palette overrides fill colors and color modes in Illustrator 2018
Hi, I am a design professor and most students in my class experienced a specific problem when we were doing an exercise to learn how to apply the correct color palettes to different logo files. Specifically, we created fictional identity designs as a means to learn how to create a production-ready bundle of files (a logo with versions in b&w, spot color (Pantone), 4-color process, and RGB). Almost 100% of my 18 students had their 4-color process file -- which was filled with CMYK colors upon designing, and should have stayed CMYK -- show up as being filled with RGB…

Type properties panel bug
Every time when changing a text's properties and deselecting it the text is reverted to size 12. Also when a different colour is applied to part of the text and deselecting it, the colour is applied to the whole text. The situation is the same with different font styles - setting part of the text in bold will result that everything is changed to bold when deselected. It happens every time.
23 votesWe have the fix available in the latest release. Please update Illustrator using Adobe Creative Cloud application to the latest build for version Illustrator CC 23.0.

細線に対する線幅プロファイルが正常に適用されない
macOS10.15.7/ver.26.3.1
再現手順
1. 10mm程度の線分を描画する。
2. 線幅を0.41mmに設定し、線幅プロファイルをアーチ状(デフォルトプリセットの6番目)のものを適用する。
3. 歪んだ状態で適用される。パスのアウトラインを行うと歪んだ状態でアウトライン化される。期待する結果
ver.25の様に適用した線幅プロファイルが正常に適用される。実際の結果
細線では線幅プロファイルが正常に適用されない。
また、過去のバージョンで作成されたデータではデータを開いただけでは正常な表示となりますが、編集作業の影響で形状が歪みます。これは付近のオブジェクト操作の影響によって生じる場合もあり危険です。線幅と長さの比率に相関関係がありそうですが現象の特定には至っておりません。以下のコミュニティページもご参照ください。

svg code export issues
I export svgs from Illustrator in order to animate them. I use File - Export as - SVG. Now with version 26.1 when I export an svg, none of the layer(id names) are correct. The exported svg is naming them <svg id="a", id="b" and so on.
A temporary fix is uninstalling and reinstalling, but the issue reappears before the day is over. The previous version 26.0.3 works with no issues.22 votes -
reading XMP data in scripts broken by 25.4 update.
Illustrator 25.4 update broke scripts that try to read XMP data that worked in previous versions of Illustrator. This is the Mac version (have not tried in Windows).
It appears to be getting the error on this line:
ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject('lib:AdobeXMPScript');
Comparing the frameworks in the package contents for 25.3.1 vs 25.4, the AdobeXMPScript framework appears to be missing in 25.4.
Below is an example script to read font data that worked in 25.3, but errors loading the library in 25.4
// load XMP Library
function loadXMPLibrary() {
…if (!ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript) { try { ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject('lib:AdobeXMPScript'); } catch

Blue learn box won't go away
I cannot see part of my workspace because the blue learn box covers up the panels and I cannot get it to go away. How am I supposed to use your program when your supposedly helpful box covers up what I need to see in order to create projects? This is unbelievably frustrating, and I am probably going to have to use some other program to create my logo since I cannot use the work space because of this idiotic blue learn bubble that won't go away and can't be moved, apparently.

Duplicate Graphic Styles
Multipage document. Many objects with a specific style, rectangle, 20% gray fill, no line. All assigned graphic style, eg, Box Style. I want to move these objects to a new artboard, so it's select, Copy, Paste In Place, Move specific distance (because I've laid out my art boards precisely). Problem is that I then get Box Style 1, or Box Style 2, and so on.
If I option drag this does not happen. This makes NO SENSE.
Styles are styles. Why would Illustrator be duplicating styles. Makes NO SENSE. Option drag is NOT an efficient way for my workflow. Maybe…

Version 24.0.1 becomes unresponsive
I'm using Illustrator 24.0.1 with Windows 10 Pro
Since updating Illustrator keeps becoming entirely unresponsive midway through working with no warning and no way to save or quit.
Sometimes I can move the mouse over menu items, the drop down menu will be completely black and items 'appear' as I hover over them but I cannot click them. Other times I can not even access the menus and it is entirely unresponsive.
Since updating it has happened daily even when working on relatively simple artworks.

Libraries Panel Disappears and cannot be accessed once reopened when you use Ctrl + [ after selecting a swatch or asset from it.
When editing objects colors using swatches, or pulling in an item from the library, if you immediately use Ctrl+[ to change the layer your selection is on, it closes the library panel. When reopened, none of the items in the library appear in the panel, and you cannot save changes to any assets you have currently open

Adding extra points and distorting paths after using Eraser and Scissor Tools
When I use the eraser and scissor tools Illustrator decides to add points to my existing shape. In the image I have attached all lines should be straight or have a slight curve on the corners. I did not add those points and didn't even know they were there until I zoomed out. I just updated Illustrator to its current version. If someone else is having a similar issue or know how to fix it please let me know.

Alt-Drag to Duplicate (and Shift to align) Only Works Intermittently
Duplicating objects in Illustrator CC 2017 only works on occasion, it is not consistent as it was in previous versions. Holding Shift to align while dragging and duplicating also doesn't work. These were both key features of Illustrator and if there is a way to fix this problem I would be very interested to know how!
