1. Adobe Illustrator CC 23.0.1 2019 Not Responding when opening file & Slow on Start MACOS Mohave 10.14.1

   1. Adobe Illustrator CC 23.0.1 2019 / MACOS Mohave 10.14.1 2.1 Slow or Not Responding - Launch Adobe Illustrator - by clicking on icon in dock or in applications folder 2.2 If it launches - Click on Open from Dashboard and try to open a file - it becomes non-responsive or takes forever. 2.2.1 Tried opening ai files (any of them I have) directly- same issue 2.2.1 Tried to command copy and save to change location I have filed stored - it copies to new location, including adobe cloud, same issue 2.2.3 New files never show up in recent files on dash board or in file menu- only some very old ones. 2.2.4 Tried to change file name to see if that helps- does not 2.3 Tried to create a new file - takes a while, but on save of a file with a single line in it (save as ai) - again non-responsive, regardless of file location 2.4 tried to shut down computer, tried to uninstall and reinstall adobe cloud and illustrator, tried to run illustrator 2017. Nothing is working!
   2. Expected result - to be able to quickly launch application either from ai file or from applications/dock and then quickly and easily open, save, and and save as my work as I go.

   3. Taking 3 hours to just open a file and am still unsuccessful - opened the downsampled PDF and am going to try that. However, when I save - same issue if saved as ai file.

   4. Could not upload my illustrator file because .ai files are not allowed, uploaded screen shots of configurations and the PDF version of file.

   -- General Notes
   Interface is Not Responsive when launched
   I have 3 TB Hardrive iMAC with 32 GB RAM - I meet or exceed the requirements. Also this just started happening after last update 23.0.1.

   I am trying to open any ai file type folder. Although slow it seams to open PDF's.

   This happens again when I try to save as or newly save an untiled version.
   I tried to send an error report and that crashed as well.
   
   I have attached my computers configurations

2. Save a Copy in same folder of AI file (like before)

   Save a Copy in same folder of AI file (like before)

   Since the update to 22.0, the behaviour of “Save a copy” has changed so as to present the last-browsed folder destination in Windows Explorer. Previously this defaulted to the location of the working file.

   This is interrupting workflow considerably. I’m sure I am not alone in saving PDF copies of artwork in profess, for discussion with colleagues and clients. This used to be a couple of keystrokes but now I have to remember to browse back to the working file location each time.

   In summary:

   Expected Result: Explorer window should really default to the location of the working file.

   Actual Result: Shown location in Explorer window is that of the last-browsed folder destination.

3. Maintain Width and Height proportions lock button in Properties panel behaves as if locked, while the button is not pressed

   The Ai I'm running has this strange bug where upon making a new document the Transform section under the Properties Panel will have the 'Maintain W & H' lock activated; however the icon does not indicate as such. It will show the function as in active.

   So every time I were to scale an item with no intention of keeping it's initial proportions, the function will scale it proportionately.

4. Unable to import SVG textPath

   Illustrator is able to export SVGs using the <textPath> element for use in browsers. However, it is unable to import SVGs using the <textPath> element - instead of importing them properly, it puts each glyph in the appropriate position along the path, but it doesn't rotate the glyphs.

   The workaround is to generate SVGs with "expanded" outlines for text, but this leads to much larger SVG files, with a loss of editability.

   I am glad to update that this issue was fixed in 23.0.5 release.

   Thank you for all the feedback.

5. We request that function key conversion be re-enabled for Japanese input.

   Due to the latest update release, the conversion shortcuts using function keys during Japanese input have become unavailable. Please restore them so they can be used again.

   Conversion shortcut details:
   F6 → Hiragana
   F7 → Katakana
   F8 → Half-width Roman characters
   F9 → Full-width Roman characters

   In Japan, conversion shortcuts using function keys are commonly used.
   Previously, I could use those keys for Japanese input conversion without having to delete the corresponding Illustrator shortcut settings. However, in the latest version, even deleting the settings doesn't work, which is inconvenient.

   Reported as fixed in version 30.

   If this is still a problem for you with the latest build — please comment.

6. Image Trace API is broken

   Please watch the video attached.
   1. Rename the attached .txt. file to .js (UserVoice does not allow to attach scripts directly)
   2. Select a raster image in Illustrator and try to run the script the way it’s shown in the video, with line 11 and 12 commented, mutually exclusive

   With TRACINGFULLCOLOR on it is expected to have the 'Palette' dropdown switch to Full Tone, but it gets set to Limited.

   On the contrary, TRACINGLIMITEDCOLOR should give Limited for 'Palette', but it gives Automatic.

   These are obviously swapped.

   Also notice how all advanced options become 50%.

10. Mouse scroll doesn't work in Window, Object, other top menus

    Not only these menus, but every menu, I guess, but Window is the main one where it really happens, when you have a lot of plugins installed.
    AI then draws arrow at the top and the bottom of the menu panel, and the only option to scroll it is by pressing these arrows with mouse.
    So
    1. Please allow mouse wheel to scroll it.
    2. Please allow us to choose between 'one panel, arrows' mode and 'unfolding panels' mode.

11. 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 if I was a one-off illustrator, but I'm not, I'm a designer with multiple page document options, a variation on maps.

    Need Illustrator to stop duplicating styles.

    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    This problem is reportedly fixed (finally!) in the latest Beta Build 30.5.0.18. You can update and test if it’s truly gone.

    However, please not there are some known issues with this particular build:

    • Opening recent files from Home Screen Recent section is not working (opening recent files from File > Open Recent Files works fine).
    • Generative Expand does not open its own HUD when used after Generate Vector, Generative Shape Fill, or Sketch to Vector. Instead, the previous tool's HUD is displayed and Generative Expand remains inaccessible. Workaround: Ungroup the generative content first, then apply Generative Expand.
    • Half of Astute Graphics plugins can’t get loaded. Both teams are now aware of the problem.

12. MAC: System has run out of memory and force quits - Activity Monitor shows > 100GB

    After launching Illustrator it will force quit with an error message "your system has run out of application memory." I have 8GB of memory and no other applications are open or running when I launch Illustrator. I am noticing in the activity monitor that illustrator is using a large amount of memory, extremely higher that usual. This started happening a few days ago and I have no changes to my OS or updates to Illustrator CC

13. text handling still a mess in 22.1

    Text handling in the 22.1 build - meaning the interactions between the Paragraph, Character, Paragraph Styles, and Character Styles panels - is still fraught with bugs and/or undesired oddity compared to previous versions. (2015.3 being the last completely -- or mostly -- working version.)

    ---

    Open Illustrator 22.1 (Windows) and create a new blank document.

    Draw a text box and fill it with placeholder text.

    Create a new paragraph style (‘body text’) and set the font, size, and leading to something different from the default. (e.g. font: 10pt Avenir LT Std Book, 16pt leading).

    PROBLEM 1: Select a word or words in the text and change the style (by pulling down the list in the Character panel) to (for example) ‘Black’ instead of ‘Book’. The selected text leaps to 12pt/14.4pt leading, though it does stay in the chosen font.

    PROBLEM 2: Undo. The selected text reverts to Avenir Book, but stays at 12pt/14.4pt.

    PROBLEM 3: Undo a second time. The selected text goes back to the original state (Avenir Book 10pt/16pt), but the entire block of text is now selected (?!?).
    Deselect.

    WEIRDNESS: Select a few words, and change the style (again, to Black), but this time do it by clicking in the Style box in the Character panel and scrolling through the values via the mouse wheel or the up/down arrows – not by pulling down the menu and making a direct selection. The text correctly changes style without changing its size.

    Delete the entire text box. Draw a new one. Make sure the ‘body text’ style is selected in the Paragraph Styles panel and fill with placeholder text.

    PROBLEM/WEIRDNESS: The text displays in the correct style (Avenir Book 10/16), but in the Paragraph Styles panel the ‘body text’ line has a ‘+’ after it, indicating that the text doesn’t match the saved style in some way. Also, in the Character panel, the leading shows no value (empty space) in the control. And the pulldown menu in the Paragraph Styles panel has ‘clear overrides’ dimmed out...

    Further WEIRDNESS: If one then selects some words and opens the Leading pulldown menu (in the Character panel), it shows 16pt as the first item in the list (above ‘Auto’ and the list of default sizes), with a checkmark... it just isn’t displaying inside the text box.

    Close the document and Illustrator.

    Start Illustrator and create a new document.

    Draw a text box and fill with placeholder text. Click outside the box to remove the keyboard focus (and cursor) from the contents, but leave the text box object itself selected.

    Create a new Paragraph Style in the Paragraph Styles panel, called ‘body text’, font settings ‘Avenir Book 10/16’.

    WEIRDNESS: The displayed text updates correctly, there’s no ‘+’ after the style name in the Paragraph Styles panel... but the Character panel still shows ‘Myriad Pro Regular 12/14.4’. De-selecting the text box and re-selecting it gets the Character panel to update (‘Avenir Book 10/16’).

    ---

    Start Illustrator and create a new document.

    Draw a text box and fill with placeholder text. Click outside the box to remove the keyboard focus (and cursor) from the contents, but leave the text box object itself selected.

    Create a new Paragraph Style in the Paragraph Styles panel, called ‘body text’, font settings ‘Avenir Book 10/16’. Deselect and reselect the text box to get the Character panel correctly updated.

    Select a few words. Then, in the Character Styles panel create a new character style called ‘italic’. Set the font to Avenir, Book Oblique, but do not touch the size or leading boxes.

    Close the dialog box and click the character style name to apply it to the selected text.

    Select an entire paragraph (or several) that includes the italicized text. In the Paragraph panel, change the size/leading to, say, 8pt/20pt. Everything works as it should.

    Deselect everything and double-click the ‘italic’ style name in the Character Styles box to verify that the style displays no values in the size or leading controls, nor in the text summary, implying that size/leading are not specified and will not be affected/overridden by this character style.

    Select the previously italicized text. The character style name shows as ‘italic+’ indicating that the selected text doesn’t match its character style definition, even though it should.

    PROBLEM: Select some other text in the same paragraph. Click ‘italic’ in the Character Styles panel. The selected text changes size to 10/16, even though the size was explicitly not specified as part of the Character Style definition.

    ---

    I could go on.

    Vertically long glyphs with variable font are not rendered at the top and bottom. Please see attached file.
    When the character size is small or when the zoom ratio is small, all rendering is done normally.

    I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 23.0.6 which is available worldwide now.

    Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

    You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

    Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

15. Illustrator 29.7.1 changes units to points and resets other values after changing Keyboard Increment value when Search field has text in it

    Another paradox is that version 29.7.1 of Illustrator constantly changes the units from px to points after entering an new value in keyboard increment. Does it happen to anybody else?

16. GPU Preview glitches with clipping masks and transparency (since Illustrator 29.6.0), white rectangle appears below

    I've encountered a rendering issue starting in Illustrator 29.6.0, and it's still present in 29.6.1. Here's how to reproduce it:

    1. Create a simple circle.
    2. Create a simple rectangle.
    3. Place the circle inside the rectangle using a clipping mask.
    4. Apply any transparency to the circle (e.g., set opacity < 100%, or add a drop shadow).

    Result:
    The rendering becomes corrupted for any object positioned beneath the clipping mask (try placing a filled shape underneath to see the issue clearly).

    Additional Notes:

    The issue only appears in GPU Preview.
    Switching to CPU Preview restores correct rendering.
    Changing the color profile or color model did not resolve the issue.
    Deleting Illustrator's preferences folder also had no effect.
    Rolling back to Illustrator 29.5 resolves the issue.
    Apologies for not including a screenshot – I rolled back to 29.5 before capturing one.

    System:
    iMac Retina 5K (27", 2017)
    macOS Ventura 13.7.6

    The fix has been pushed into the latest 30.3 general release. Please update, check, and comment back if it still happens.

17. Using Color Mixer in Control panel for stroke changes the color of the fill instead

    I encountered this problem as seen in the GIF.
    Selecting a stroke or fill from the control bar menu changes the active appearance. When using sliders, it doesn't. i have tested on different Windows 11 machines and different documents. Replicated the issue every time.

18. Illustrator 24.1 metric precision broken

    So there was a new release Illustrator 24.1 the other day which I installed. Unfortunately, it looks like the engineers messed up and semi-broke the conversion routines from inches or whatever measurement is used internally to the metric units displayed to me as the user.

    What used to be displayed as nice whole numbers or up to a maximum of three decimals, is now never an even number and always displayed with four decimals. Just to take an example, a dimension clearly intended to be precisely 10 mm is now displayed as say 9.9998 mm or 10.0003 mm.

    This is incredibly annoying for me and anyone else who usually works by numerically setting exact dimensions and coordinates. This also seem to affect other parts of the software like the PathFinder and join command. Objects where the coordinates should match now doesn't, generating several unnecessary anchor points or paths in the process.

    Please fix ASAP!

19. Full Arabic support not available with multiple languages installed

    macOS 10.13.6, Illustrator 2019

    When any language version of Illustrator installed other than Arabic, the full Arabic support is not available. Digits Type and Diacritic Positions are missing from the Character palette, and RTL/LTR and Kashidas are missing from the Paragraph palette, and corresponding tools are missing from the toolbar.

    Also, Arabic must be be installed from nothing - no previous language can be installed.

    AI does have the Middle Eastern composer options in the Paragraph menu, and correctly ligatures Arabic when one is set, but RTL is needed for correct punctuation and number display.

    Non-Arabic versions of AI do display Arabic with RTL, digit and kashidas correctly.

    Reproduce:

    Have English North America Illustrator installed.

    Go to CC preferences and set the CC language to English (Arabic).

    Install Illustrator (it is quick, as only Arabic components are needed).

    Leave Arabic selected as language and start Illustrator. Go to AI preferences-Type and enable Indic options.

    Illustrator should now have Middle Eastern options in the Character and Paragraph palettes, but they're missing.

    Back to CC, preferences - switch language to English NA

    Uninstall Illustrator - this removes English NA components, leaving only Arabic.

    Switch back to Arabic language.

    Start Illustrator - full Arabic options are still missing.

    Back to CC (should still have Arabic language set).

    Uninstall Arabic AI.

    Install Arabic AI.

    Start AI - it now has full Arabic support.

    macOS 10.13.6, Illustrator 2019

20. Gradient Annotator tool bug on Groups

    Gradient Annotator tool is not visible for some objects but it is for others. See screen shot: visible on the rectangle, but when I edit the gradient of the compound shape, the annotator is not visible.
