Rasterizing a clipped image/group of objects results in extra white space in the resulting image.
If I rasterize a clipped image, the result is the same size as the clipped image but with extra whitespace surrounding the clipping boundaries. Expected result, IMO, should be that the resulting image is only as large as the clipping object.

Font drop down menu disappears
Whenever I select the font drop down menu, and I'm going through the fonts I have, it just randomly disappears as I'm looking through the fonts to find the one I want to use, although I can still use my arrow keys to go through the list even though the drop down menu isn't on my screen.

Illustrator is not exporting with the current file name
- Create a document
- Draw a rectangle (just for it to have something inside)
- Save it anywhere as '1.ai'
- Export a, say, TIF, with default settings (these don't really matter) — Ai will offer '1.tif' name for the file exported
- Save this document as '2.ai'
- Export another TIF — Ail will use '1.tif' name, although the file is now '2.ai' This is wrong. Ai should adapt the name from the file actual name and not the original one.

Switching between files doesn't work properly - or at all
See the attached video. I have two files open. The second file I opened does not display. When I click on the file tab I still have the previous file displayed. Regardless of which file is active, I can only edit one. I can't even see the other. They are two completely different projects - they do not look the same. You are only seeing one file in this video, despite which one I select. I have to quite and restart, losing any changes I may have in the one file I cannot see.

縦組みのエリア内文字のスレッドテキストオプション作成が正常に機能しない
macOS 14.7.2
Illustrator ver.29.1Step to reproduce
1.縦組みのエリア内文字を作成する
2.矩形ツールで矩形を描く
3.エリア内文字と矩形を選択してメニュー「書式→スレッドテキストオプション→作成」を選択する。
4.矩形が縦組みエリア内文字に変換されるが、スレッドテキストにはならずエリア内文字のコンテンツがコピーされた状態になる。期待する動作
矩形がスレッドテキストとして正常にリンクされる。実際の結果
スレッドテキスト→作成を実行してもスレッドテキストとならずコンテンツの状態もおかしい。回避策
Tツールを使って手動でスレッドテキストをリンクさせる。縦組みに対するスレッドテキストオプションの挙動は全般おかしく、エリア内文字や矩形の構成や状態によって挙動が異なる場合がありますが、全般的に意図した通りに動作しない。
また、おかしくなったエリア内テキストを手動でリンクさせようとするとIllustratorがクラッシュします。以下のコミュニティ投稿もご参照ください。

Some shortcuts don't work while using non-English keyboard / language layout
After upgrading to AI 26.0 (and still not fixed in 26.0.1) some shortcuts stopped working, like those:
- Show/hide layers = cmd + ;
- Lock selection = cmd + 2It seems that all shortcuts with czech letters on the keyboard instead of US are affected. To be clear:
- On us keyboard there is ";" key, but on the Czech keyboard, there is "ů" letter.
- The same for the letter "2" on US, on the Czech keyboard, there is "ě" letter.Possible fix: to keep logic as before, when everything worked, you have to work with hardware…

If a symbol contains clipping groups or freeform gradients, its bounding box is calculated based on bounds of clipped contents, not masks
If you convert a clipping group to a symbol, the bounding box for it will be calculated according to clipped art and not the clipping path, resulting in a larger box.
The same exact behaviour we had for rasterized clipping groups (now fixed).
Please fix this one too.30 votes -
Groups inside compound paths lead to problems
Today I'm going to bring you awareness to the way Illustrator treats groups in compounds.
For me it sounds strange already — why would I want a group inside of a compound path?
What would I use it for?
Ai won’t allow me to go isolate this group to edit its components.
Ai would not show it in the Layers tree — for some reason we can’t expand a compound path to see its children, like we can do with the groups.
Ai won’t give scripts a way to see these groups inside of compound paths — and this leads…30 votes -

Effects menu is smaller/larger than other menus on Windows with larger UI scaling
When looking at the effects drop down on a high definition laptop, it is smaller then the rest of the dropdowns.
