1. AI doesn't warn about matching hotkeys for commands and actions

   Actions can only be bound to F-keys.
   Keyboard shortcuts can be match to almost anything, including F-keys.
   When user tries to register new keyboard shortcut that already exists, AI warns them about conflict.
   But when user creates new shortcut for F-combination, already taken by action, AI says nothing.
   For example, if one of my actions uses Ctrl+Shift+F2, and then I want to assign same Ctrl+Shift+F2 for 'Change case' command, AI won't notify me. Action will run, but not a command then. If I uses Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F2 for that (or any) command, it still won't run, but action will do.

3. Duplicated artboards containing Export Assets link to the new artwork not the original

   As the title says, Assets in the Export panel move from the original artboard and become linked to the new artwork on the duplicated artboards. Subsequently when you remove any artwork from the new artboard, you inadvertantly remove the asset from the Export panel.

   Methodology:
   Duplicate an artboard (which contains an asset in the export assets panel) via the Alt-drag method. Ensure the move/copy artwork option is enabled. Delete the new copy of the artwork/asset on the new artboard, and the asset is removed from the export panel.

   Expected behaviour:
   Any link to/connection to export assets should be retained by the original artwork on the original artboard, thereby enabling the new duplicated artwork to act as a guide for a modified creation and such that once any components are removed, the original asset remains intact.

5. TIFF images as assets in CC Libraries are always placed as PNG images on the artboard

   1. Affected: Illustrator CC all versions that are working with CC Libraries.
      Tested with Illustrator CC 2019 version 23.0.3 on Windows 10. Illustrator versions on Mac OS X are also reported.

   2. Steps to reproduce the issue:
      Do a new CC Library.
      Add TIFF images saved from PhotoShop CC 2019 to the new library.
      Two options how you can do this that I know of:
      A. Drag the files from your file system to the open and empty library.
      B. Use Adobe Bridge CC 2019 to drag files to the open library.

   3. Expected result:
      If I want to use an image TIFF asset in my layout and place it on the artboard from a CC Library the placed image should show up as TIFF image with all the right properties, like the right color space, original resolution etc.pp.

   4. Actual result:
      The placed TIFF is converted to PNG, color space is always RGB, regradless of the original. Always indicating transparency. Even if the original file stored in the CC Library has no transparency at all.

   More details can be seen in this discussion at Adobe InDesign User Forum:

6. Graph tool doesn't work at all

   I can't get the chart tool to work at all in this latest version. It's not grayed out in the toolbar, and yet clicking on ANY chart format does nothing.

   In the Object > Graph menu, the only available option is Type, and even that just creates a loaded cursor that does nothing. What's going on?

7. Illustrator Recovery-Mode has Turned all my Images Black

   I was in the process of saving my original Illustrator file and it froze then crashed, I re-opened the software and it recovered the document but all my images have turned black.

   And it's not a links problem, most images are embedded and I have a separate links folder containing the remaining linked images, as you can see there are no missing links.

8. eyedropper tool doens't pick up properties

   The eyedropper tool used to be able to pick up properties from one vector to another. for example when there is a vector shape with a border and a gradient and what to copy the same properties (same border and gradient) on to a different vector shape. Tried using shift, or double clicking on the eyedropper tool to look at the eyedropper options.

9. Adobe Illustrator asks you to Save when no changes were made?

   Why does Illustrator, for the past many years, ask you to Save when no changes were made? Makes me think I accidentally did something or forgot that I did something. If nothing was changed, Don't ask to Save....please.

10. Pop up window for gradient comes up and stops all work

    turn off the new pop up window for new features - popped up in the middle of work and I literally could not continue :( I had to quit

    turn off the new pop up window for new features - it appears seemingly out of the blue with no option to turn it off - no quiet fade to background

    in illustrator: - this help item popped up in the middle of work and I literally could not continue ... :( - the help item was on the gradient feature - which I obv. activated

    suggest that you have some user experince folks test new features like this before rollout - mabye demo it / poll (small pilot) to see what people think

    I had to save and quit my work - luckily I was able to do that

11. Pathfinder options not working no matter what I do

    Hi I am using Adobe Illustrator on a Windows PC and I was trying to use the Pathfinder Tool to simply 'minus front' some text on a shape for a logo I am trying to create. But, whenever I go to use the Pathfinder tool and click on in in the Windows Drop Down Menu - because its not even an option on the side bars?- nothing happens. I've tried to group the text and the shape as well as creating outlines but nothing is working. Nothing is popping up. I am simply trying to make transparent text in a shape. Please help. I know what I am supposed to be doing but Adobe isn't giving me any options to do anything

12. Resize brush with shortcut keys for Twirl, Pucker, Bloat etc tools

    When using the set of twirl, pucker, bloat tools etc It would be great if you could change the brush size using the '[' and ']' keys like you can when using the blob brush tool. It's very slow and cumbersome to change the size of the brush in the dialogue box .

14. Command-Option buttons not working. Can't duplicate or get to selection tool by hitting Command when I am using another tool

    When I am using a tool and want to get to the Selection tool without releasing the other tool I am working with (like if I am typing and want to move the text I can just hit Command and the cursor changes to Selection tool and I can move it and when released automatically becomes the text tool again, use this for many different tools).

    When I hold Command and Option down it would duplicate but it is not duplicating.

15. Cannot export large files to .png format at 300dpi

    I’m using the command: File > Export As > PNG
    Use artboards: Not selected
    Resolution: High (300dpi)
    Ahti-Aliasing: None
    Background Color: Transparent

    I have an immediate need to export Illustrator files of roughly 8000 px by 6500px to .png format at 300dpi. I tried doing this with a file containing a complicated drawing, but it fails and displays an error box saying:
    The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error [!now]
    I created a simple file containing a few filled rectangles and experimented, with the following results: (all set to export to .png at 300dpi with no anti aliasing)

    3000px x 3000px – and smaller files exported to .png OK
    4000px x 4000px – flashed a not responding banner at the top of the window then did the export OK
    5000px x 5000px – flashed the not responding banner then (a while later) did the export OK.
    6000px x 6000px – No flashing banner, just the Cannot complete – unknown error message in a box.

    I’m running Illustrator 23.0.3, on Windows 7.1

    I tried the same exercise on my laptop and got much the same results using Illustrator 23.0.2 on Windows 10 Home v1809

    I can’t use the fix I’ve seen of copying the file to Photoshop and exporting from there as I don’t have Photoshop. I’d really appreciate some help to sort this out. I’ve spend the afternoon trying to fix it, and I need to be able to create these .png files.

16. Objects in a clipping mask do not respect "Object Selection By Path Only".

    Reproduction steps:

    1. Draw a filled shape.
    2. Use Draw Inside to draw another filled shape inside it.
    3. In the 'Selection And Anchor Display' pane of the prefs, ensure that 'Object Selection By Path Only' is checked.
    4. Click and drag with the Selection or Direct Selection tools in a part of the first object that does not contain the second object. Note that nothing gets selected unless you drag over the first object's path.
    5. Click and drag with one of those tools in a part of the first object that does contain the second object. Do not cross any of the paths while attempting to drag out this selection area. Note that Illustrator acts as if "Object Selection By Path Only" was off, and either selects the whole clip group (if you're using the Selection tool) or starts dragging the second object (if you're using the Direct Selection tool).

    The desired effect is that step 5 should only select any objects whose paths you cross with the selection box, rather than immediately dragging them. This drives me crazy every time it happens.

    Reproduction steps:

    1. Draw a filled shape.
    2. Use Draw Inside to draw another filled shape inside it.
    3. In the 'Selection And Anchor Display' pane of the prefs, ensure that 'Object Selection By Path Only' is checked.

19. Freeform gradient fill disappears after outline stroke

    1. Windows 10 Pro version 1809 OS build 17763.475 running Illustrator 23.0.3
    2. Make a shape. Fill it with a freeform gradient. Add a stroke. Use Object > Path > Outline Stroke.
       
    3. The stroke should be converted to a path and the fill should be untouched.
    4. When the stroke was converted to a path, the freeform gradient fill disappeared.
    5. The attached file is an animated gif I created to help a user on the forum who encountered the bug. https://forums.adobe.com/message/11077177#11077177

20. Mutiple profiles & Artboards

    Illustrator Version: CC 2019 (23.0.3)
    Mac: Mojave (10.14.2) 5k 27" 32gb Ram

    Firstly there are 3 Film & Video profile dropdowns (1. Film & Video, 2. Film and Video, 3. Video and Film). Not sure why.

    No matter what general preset I use or artboard size preset I choose I get 2 artboards.

    1 artboard is the correct size and the other is basically the complete canvas area.

    I am constantly having to delete the 2nd artboard.

    Can I stop this from happening?

    Thanks in advance.
