Layers palette filter grabs focus when pressing Ctrl-C
Pressing Ctrl-C to copy something activates the focus on the filter field in the Layers palette. Using keyboard shortcuts becomes a landmine when this happens because you can inadvertently turn off layers or, in some cases, slow Illustrator way down by pasting SVG data into the field (Ctrl-V often follows pressing Ctrl-C). When the latter happens, Illustrator tries to filter by the text in the field, and it can take quite a while sometimes to regain focus enough to clear out the field. More often than not, however, I have to force quit and restart.
A potential side effect of this has been the lack of ability to copy color or width values from their respective. When attempting to do so, the ug is randomly triggered. Sometimes the text does still copy, other times it does not.
OS: MacOS Sequoia 15.3.1 (this has happened for a while across previous OS versions)
AI version: 29.3.1 (this has happened with previous versions of AI, going back to the introduction of the filter feature)

White words invisible on export
There is a bug after I import the file form InDesign. I have some words on a sheet made in InDesign, then save it as PDF, then import to Illustrator, and then the bug is coming — if i create new words in Illustrator and use the Eyedropper to click the words on the sheet to change the color to White, and export as JPG, the words won't be show up, but black color would.

3D Effects dithering in Illustrator for MacOS
I'm noticing in Illustrator version 29.3.1 in MacOS Sequoia 15.3.1 a graphics problem and dithering of objects that have a 3D effect applied. Specifically, I'm using the 'Inflate' effect and am seeing objects sometimes as dithered or pixelated and others that are smooth and normal. I can temporarily smooth the dither if I move the object on the screen, but then other objects with the same effect can have dithers. I'm using a MacBook ProM4 with 48GB and also two 4K 32" monitors. If I move the Illustrator window to another screen, the dithering still remains on some objects unless I actually move them around. Not sure what's causing this.

Random inverted Movement lock during Wacom Cintiq Pen and mouse usage
I haven't used AI in awhile. I updated it today from CC. I'm on Windows 11 with a Cintiq 24. When I go to move an object or shift my workspace view, the pen motion or mouse motion will lock and invert. I won't be able to access any menu items. I was in task manager as I reproduced this. Doesn't look like it affects memory too much. Just trying to figure out if this is a bug or new setting.

Font switches to default and back while navigating string with arrows
It's a bit hard to explain in words, so please watch the screencast I recorded. To put it simply: if a text block has a font other than the default (Myriad), and you want to navigate the text using the arrow keys, each time you click the button, the font in the panels changes to the default font and then back. The new letters have the correct font, although this does impact performance, especially for large texts.

Using scrollbars with a Wacom while editing text results in sticky cursor that will not stop scrolling
Using the handles in the horizontal and vertical scrollbars while text is being edited results in the cursor 'sticking' to the scrollbar and not releasing. Pressing esc, alt-tabbing away all seem to have no effect, after about 30s it stops and if I have minimised everything with Win+M. Unsure if it is purely time-based or not.
This only seems to occur when using a Wacom, the same interaction with a mouse does not suffer from the same sticky cursor.
Steps to repro:
- create a text object, and leave the cursor live inside the object. Doesn't seem to make a difference if any characters have been typed or not.
- using a wacom stylus (e.g. Inutos) click and drag on either the horizontal or vertical scoll handles. This should result in the scoll handle 'sticking' to the cursor (e.g. scrolling with all cursor movement), with no obvious way to release it.
- Clicking within the scrollbar also causes abnormal behaviour (instead of scrolling in the direction clicked relative to the handle), but this is harder to identify exactly what's going on. It locks the system up for a while, and appears to have stacked all the inputs while in the locked state.Expected behaviour:
Clicking and dragging a scrollbar handle while editing text would be expected to scroll as normal, and either cancel the text edit in its current state, or keep the edit active, either would make sense.Cheers.

A part of a traced image vanishes when using Image Trace
When changing raster graphics to vector graphics, an image element (with a yellow background) was removed. It looks like Adobe Illustrator does not recognize this color. How can I solve this problem?

Exporting DWG or DXF and importing it back leads to artifacts
On importing .dwg or .dxf files into illustrator (even for files that have been exported from illustrator in those formats), the file opens with unwanted artifacts. Please see the image below. On the left is the ai file and on the right is the same file exported as .dwg and opened, with artifacts on the curves.
This is basic and shouldn't be happening in the first place. It makes working with manufacturing utterly painful.
Request you guys to please iron out this glitch.

Measure tool stops working for measuring an area after we toggle to Selection tool with Cmd/Ctrl and move the object
If we create an object and try to measure its area with the Measure tool — it gets highlighted and the area gets calculated fine, showing the result in the Info panel.
But as soon as we hold Cmd/Ctrl to temporarily pick Selection tool, and move the object, releasing Cmd/Ctrl breaks the measuring — no area, no highlight. Reselecting doesn’t help.1 vote
