Crash when changing gradient stop color to white
Illustrator 24.3, OS X 10.15.7.
- Create a shape with a gradient fill.
- Select any color stop that's not already white.
- Change the color of the stop to white by clicking the white box that's to the right of the no-fill ("None") box. Illustrator will crash immediately
Changing the color value any other way does not trigger a crash. Screen recording showing how to reproduce the crash and the stack trace are attached.

when using adobe capture patterns there is a transparent seam in the pattern, I am able to remove the seam by change the width of the pattern but its only a temporary fix as soon as I change the pattern the seam comes back.

where lines/ spaces appear in-between the patterngo to pattern…

25.0.1 Colour still wrong
NOT AN IDEA—A BUG!
The colour settings are still incorrect in the newest update.
Totally unusable software, so back to version 24 again.The image on the right is correct from version 24. How that file displays in 25.0.1 is in the middle and the image on the left is the same jpeg as on the right imported into 25.0.1…!!!!
3 totally different interpretations of the same colour. Insane.

Appearance: Empty Stroke blocks Fill
When applying a colour to a selection, sometimes this has no effect. While both the Color and the Appearance panel reflect the chosen colour, the object doesn't.
Most of the time the (unlogical) cause seems to be a Stroke without colour.
When changing the order in Appearance to having the Fill on top, the colour appears.Please make an uncoloured stroke of no influence on underlying fills.

Global swatches unlinking from grayscale gradient
I'm on a Mac Pro using Mojave version 10.14.6
Using Illustrator 2020 & 2021, both updated to latest iterations.I have a gradient one piece object, I turn a copy of it grayscale through the Edit Color feature > convert to grayscale, I extract the grays generated and ensure global swatches is on to keep swatches linked. Each of this swatch I rename to a specific designation. I used this grayscale gradient and use it as an opacity mask, this serves as a density mask that allows me to control the opacity of each section of the color gradient separately.…

Color picker preview doesn't match color field/document, matches monitor RGB instead
- Operating system: Windows 10 Pro. Version of Adobe Illustrator: 25.0
- When I select a color in the color picker, the circled color in the color field doesn't match the color in the preview. The color field matches the document, but the preview shows it as much brighter. It actually matches my monitor RGB since it matches the document opened in Windows photo viewer (see attachment). I don't have this problem in Photoshop. Everything matches. It looks like the color field is correctly color managed but the preview box is not.
- Expected result: I expect the preview to match the color…

Adding colours from Adobe Libraries to swatches creates duplicates
When I add a selection of colours from the adobe libraries panel to swatches, using the ctrl+click and selecting 'add color to swatches' it adds them twice in the swatches panel. So if I select 5 colours and add, they show up in swatches as color1, color1,color2, color2,color3, color3,color4, color4,color5, color5

Eyedrop multiple fills
Please allow there to be an option on the eyedropper tool to select multiple fills on appearances to apply to another object. Example; with pattern design, we create a top transparent pattern than a second fill with a solid color to create the final pattern. We would like to be able to easily apply those two fills to another object
1 voteYou can open Eyedropper tool’s options (double-click tool icon or hit Enter while the tool is active) and check both Appearance ticks to force it to pick and apply all appearance items, including multiple fills.

Some freeform gradients change when selected with one or more other objects
The problem always seems to affect the same objects and certain color groups. I've attached two pictures: the first shows the gradient I created, the second shows how the gradient changed the instant I selected it with another object.
Please view this thread, as it includes a complete description of the problem and several photos:
