  1. .AI files won't open after latest update (25.2.1)

    Updated to version 25.2.1 a few days ago and now I can't get any .AI files to open without going straight to file>open.

    Getting tired of dealing with a different issue every time this software updates.

  2. can't use the hand tool while using type tool anymore

    If you're using the type tool, you used to be able to hit the command key, then press the space bar to bring up the hand tool to move the canvas around without affecting the type. It's worked this way for years and years. Now, however, when you bring up the hand tool while type is selected, the space bar adds spaces while the hand tool is also operating. Please fix this!

    This is another one of dozens of examples of things that worked flawlessly in Illustrator for years, but is now fundamentally broken. These types of problems are plaguing…

  3. Illustrator 25.2.1 zoom doesn't work correctly after import files

    After you import any tipe of file into the program a bug occurs modifying the use of the zoom tool so is impossible make a gradual zoom because a box like a "selection box" is created that brings the zoom to a very high percentage.
    It is also no longer possible to zoom out.
    This bug ONLY occurs if you import an external file into Illustrator and it won't fix it by deleting it or restarting the program.

  4. illustrator2021 artboard

    If you open another version (CC2019, etc.) in illustrator2021, the X-axis and / or Y-axis of the artboard will shift by about 0.0001 (fractions will appear).
    I would like you to teach me some good solutions or improve them.

  6. Non-uniform scaling of rounded rectangles

    When scaling a rounded rectangle non-uniformly, the corners should distort from circular arcs to elliptical sections.
    Instead, I get resized rounded corners, and Adobe tech support is calling it a "feature".

  7. GPU se desactiva perdiendo los perfiles de color en pantalla y tampoco permite ver Ajustes de Prueba ni Colores de Prueba

    Sin motivo al parecer se cambiaron los colores de los PSD linkeados perdiendo los perfiles de color. Se cambió a CPU y no puedo volver a GPU porque aparece en gris, al igual que Ajustes de Prueba ni Colores de Prueba. Al ir al Menú Edición/Ajustes de Color aparece "Emular Adobe Illustrator 6.0". Reinicio Illustrator y al abrir cualquier documento elimina los perfiles incrustados en él.

  8. Stroke using touchscreen appears black until I lift pen

    I'm using Illustrator 25.2.1 (latest version) with a Surface Studio 2 (latest firmware, latest Windows update as of April 3, 2021.) Using the Paintbrush tool, with either a fixed or pressure calligraphic brush, when I draw a path with my mouse, the path is drawn showing the correct/expected stroke color (such as yellow) as I draw. However when I use the Microsoft Pen to draw on the touchscreen, the stroke is drawn in black until I lift the pen -- at which time it changes to the expected stroke color (i.e. yellow.)
    Of course I've restarted my computer, and I've…

  9. Illustrator uses precise cursors despite being disabled

    From CS6 till CC 25.2, Illustrator has always mistakenly used precise cursors every now and then, despite the fact that the option is disabled in the preferences. Please fix this issue (Windows version).

    L'outil pipette a disparu de ma barre d'outils et de la liste d'outils malgré une réinitialisation de l'interface. Même le raccourci clavier (I) ne fonctionne pas. Mon collègue se retrouve avec le même problème.

  15. If computer or illustrator crashes, when reopening recovered files all linked images are missing.

    If illustrator crashes or computer crashes when reopening illustrator, the linked files are all missing. A dialogue box says something like "Can't find missing file "." . . " as it would normally do if a linked file was moved out of the original folder. However, rather than the original filename showing between the "speech marks" all you get is a full stop/period "." and all linked files are missing. If you save the file that file then it will always have the items missing and there is now indication of what the file is in the linked files panel…

  16. Illustrator ignores the names of directory aliases in the Library button of the Graphic Styles palette.

    Man this is a super fiddly bug and it is gonna slide right down the bottom of the priority pile given that most of your resources are currently tied up in "rewrite this whole codebase from scratch for iOS" but hey. It's a tiny little one and maybe it's an easy one to slip into someone's queue for when they need a break from that.

    Anyway. So I'm on OSX, and I still prefer to manage my style/brush/symbol/etc libraries by using the computer's filesystem instead of trying to figure out the Libraries palette.

    And I just discovered that if you…

  17. Changing size when creating a new doc

    There is a small bug that has been introduced into Adobe illustrator a few versions ago that hasn't been corrected. I simply want to make you aware of it so that the development team can take a look. When creating a new file and entering in the dimensions, the dimension values can't be 'selected and deleted'. They don't highlight so you can't select and delete them like you can any other value box in illustrator. You have to click into them, then hit the backspace. It's minor but annoying that they don't work the same way as everything else.

  18. Tool palettes on 2nd screen don't always act on the current file

    I keep my main screen clear by putting option palettes on my second screen, which mostly works perfectly. However, if I have another document open on that second screen, some commands get applied that second-screen document instead of the one I'm currently working on the main screen.

    To recreate this: On a 2-screen setup open a document on each screen, working in a document on screen 1 while the Layers Palette is on screen 2 out of the way.

    Click the eye symbol to hide a layer and it affects the live document on screen 1, as you'd expect.

    Option…

  19. Preparing for Save takes longer than actually saving

    I have noticed that now illustrator does a "preparing to save" function with a dialogue box and progress bar before saving in the background. The issue I am experiencing with this is that the "preparing to save" step takes significantly longer than I ever remember a simple save taking. As such my routine save reflex is causing a significant disruption to my workflow. The time this "preparing to save" dialogue takes is far too long and incredibly inconvenient. I have also uploaded the file I am working on so you can see if it is remarkably large or complicated, I…
