1. Expand appearance stopped working for offset path on illustrator 2020

   Sometimes there's no way to expand the offset path you created. Some other times it works, so I'm pretty sure it's a bug

2. Free Distort doesn't apply to certain gradient strokes

   I was working on a type effect when I realized the Free Distort filter (found under Effect > Distort & Transform > Free Distort) doesn't apply when the selected object uses a stroke with a gradient that is applied along or across the stroke. Is this intentional? I hope it isn't since it doesn't seem intentional.

   Here's how I did it.
   Create a rectangle. Make sure it has a fill color. Then add a stroke and pick a gradient. Change the stroke style to be either the second or third option. Then apply the Free Distort filter to the object (not to the fill or stroke specifically) and distort the shape in any way. The fill gets distorted as expected, but the stroke stays the same. Only the first stroke option allows it to be distorted correctly with the fill.

   I've been able to recreate this on both of my Windows machines. One is Windows 7 and the other is Windows 10 and both are on the latest versions available.

   In the attached file, I have a sample set up where this happens. If the Free Distort filter is above the stroke effect, the effect works as intended, but not if it's under the stroke, so this definitely seems inconsistent.

3. Opening Graphic styles causes crashes of v23 (and previous versions)

   Crashing when graphic styles panel is opened.

   December 2018
   After your technicians shared the screen and saw this happened even with a blank canvas, I was promised this would be fixed soon.

   September 2019
   Graphic Styles STILL crashes.
   Others are also having problems.

   WHEN will this be fixed? ETA?

5. Shear in Transform Panel doesn't add numbers

   In the Transform Panel I use the mouse wheel to adjust the Shear of an object but it does not show the degrees that it is moving. The object does adjust but the panel only reports 0°. As I scroll with the mouse wheel I can see the number flickering. When I click on the selection arrow I can select a number but that only adds to the number of degrees instead of telling me how many degrees I have adjusted it. I have attached a short video where I am adjusting the shear using the mouse wheel

6. Gaussian Blur Bug

   When applying gaussian blur to a shape, the effect looks "pixely" in various zoom percentages. The screenshot shows 100% and it does not look right. If I zoom in to 150% it looks fine, but at 200% it looks strange again. This did not happen in CC 2018.

   Can we get this fixed? Thanks!

7. Zoom Blur gets cutoff.

   At high amounts, the blur effect from zoom blur gets cut off (specifically with text, whether the text is rasterized or not. I haven't tested other shapes). It's related to the "add x amount of space around objects" setting (though no number actually fixes it. It is easy to see when you compare the effect in Illustrator to the effect in Photoshop.

   You guys really need to work on Illustrator's effect system. It's the one thing no other vector app has, but some things don't work or aren't effective because we have less control than we do in Photoshop.

   P.S. I also can't change the color of the Neon Glow effect in Effect Gallery.

11. Symbols | Mapping stroke to 3D-Model will distort stroke

    Hi together,

    recently I came accross a mapping bug with a stroke ( width 0.2 Pt ) applied to a waving flag shape used in a symbol that was mapped to a 3D model.

    All details can be found at Adobe Illustrator User Forum here:
    Symbols | Mapping stroke to 3D-Model will distort stroke
    Laubender Mar 21, 2019
    https://forums.adobe.com/message/10989571#10989571

    Workarounds like expanding the stroke and working with an extra path element stacked behind the flag shape did not help.

    The only workaround that will help is rendering the elements to an image and implement the placed and not linked image with the symbol for mapping. A workaround that I do not like at all because my vector objects will be gone.

    All test files attached as a zip file that I renamed to *.txt because Illustrator Feedback will not allow to attach zip files. Thanks for that hack go to Peter Kahrel who recently did this with a bug report on Adobe InDesign Uservoice!

    So if you want to unzip the provided file first RENAME it with suffix *.zip. Thanks.

    Regards,
    Uwe Laubender
    ( ACP )

    All tests done with German Adobe Illustrator CC 2019 version 23.0.2 on Windows 10. Some tests on the same machine with German Illustrator CS6 where I already can see the same issues.

13. 3D Extrude and Bevel - Rough color transitions

    The 3D extrude and bevel doesn't seem to handle transitions between curved surfaces and straight surfaces well. There's a very rough color transition in the resulting 3D render where one would expect a smooth transition. See attached for an example.

16. Stroke weight reverts to previous scale when embedding after rotating a graphic.

    AI CC 22.1

    I had an linked .pdf at 10% scale, which I rotated 90 degrees, then scaled up by 1000%, then I embedded the file. The strokes in the artwork reverted back to 10% size. If I repeat the procedure, but do not rotate the file first, then the stoke retains the enlarged size.

This happens on both my PCs and one of my student's PCs (they originally drew my attention to this). I can't duplicate the issue on the Mac so I think this might be a PC only issue?
