Hey y’all. When I have a hidden compound path in a layer and I try to make the path visible again, the app the freezes. This is a bit frustrating and not my art that I created is at a halt due to this bug.

Image trace does not allow to use your own colour palette
Under advanced image trace, now when you use the dropdown palette and select 'Document library' and then select your own limited colour theme in the dropdown below, it makes no difference at all (even though it takes time re-rendering the image).
This used to work really effectively, but I've had these issues for some time.
I'm on the latest version of Illustartor 2020 (ver 24.2.3)
I've attached a screengrab so you can see the colours are not being used!

Eyedropper creates buggy hidden/invisible/non-existent appearances on text objects
This bug only seems to work on Windows.
Illustrator version: 25.2.1As discussed here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator/buggy-hidden-invisible-non-existent-appearances/m-p/11964528/thread-id/271978#M272107
Creating a default text object, selecting it, then clicking on it with the eyedropper tool creates an invisible/pseudo-existing appearance on the text. This is evident in that going to the top menu shows that Object > Expand... is greyed out while Object > Expand Appearance is not. You can also see in the Layers panel that the text object has its selection circle filled with grey, indicating that it has an appearance. Yet checking the Appearance panel shows that there is no appearance at all…

Discard white overprint is disabled when background save is enabled
- version 24.x
- Windows and macOS
- background save enabled
At this time, the operation related to discarding the white overprint is not performed and the settings is invalidated.
The behavior itself is the same as another bug, but it is not completely fixed 24.1.x.

option key keps getting stuck randomly
MacOS Catalina
switching between tools via shortcuts,
the option Key shouldn't be aktive when it's not pressed.
The key sometimes act like its pressed when it's not.
The option key keeps getting stuck. A hardware problem could already be ruled out, that the problem also exists on another keyboard. The problem also occurs in Photoshop. I work with a Wacom Cintiq Pro (latest driver).2 votes -
copying from more than one layer
On Macbook, Big Sur OS, Illustrator V25.2.1, CC.
Illustrator only copies from one layer when objects from multiple layers are selected. Attached is a video where I select paths from two layers and attempt the methods; ALT+Drag, Transform-COPY, and CMD-C + CMD-F to copy the desired objects.
Each time illustrator selects the paths I want, but only ever copies the paths from one layer. Even when using transform, illustrator previews all the paths, but when I choose COPY, it then reverses and only copies the top layer.1 vote -

The white-filled circle arrowhead has some very strange geometry.
The white-filled circle arrowhead in Support Files/Resources/en_us/Arrowheads.ai has two doubled points in the black circle. This results in unexpected imagery when a path is given this arrowhead, expanded, and has further effects applied.
Screenshots: outline view, and outline view with half of each point pair selected and moved down 1pt.
This was discovered in 25.3.1 but I bet it's been lurking there long enough that it predates your current source control tree. :)

Fill appeared outside of outline on single copied object once when duplicating all objects multiple times
Work was done in Illustrator 25.2.3 under Mojave 10.14.6. A screenshot showing the fill separated from the outline as well as a simplified/de-branded version of the 5-up document with only the problem art and a section of non-problem art (for relative position reference) left in place are attached.
In Illustrator, the customer's AI file was opened and stepped 4 times to produce a 5-up document (as has been done countless times before on similar files). The resulting 5-up file was saved to subsequently be imposed in Prinergy. All artwork was duplicated perfectly in the first 3 copies but in the…

Erreur des vignettes/aperçu des calques (layers panel).
Bonjour, malgré la dernière mise à jour prenant en compte les puces M1 (25.3.1), un bug subsiste dans le panneau des calques.
L'aperçu en miniature des calques, dans le menu calques, peut ne pas représenter la réalité. Cela intervient après une modification de couleur et/ou un déplacement des calques (disposition) manuellement dans le layers panel, mais n'est pas systématique.
Cela amène à confondre les calques dans le panneau calques, puis que les îcones/vignettes/aperçus, ne correspondent pas au niveau de la couleur (dans le cas de formes identique ou similaire).
Hardware: Macbook Air M1 - 7 coeurs - 16go de ram…

regolazione spessore tracciati con pantoni diversi
Buongiorno
utilizzando illustrator versione 25.3 e 25.3.1 ho riscontrato un grosso bug.
nello specifico se seleziono tracciati con spessori diversi e pantoni diversi per dare a tutti lo stesso spessore i colori scompaiono e i tracciati diventano tutti trasparenti
con questa problematica ho dovuto installare la precedente versione di illustrator 25.2.
attendo vostre grazie
cordiali saluti

AI2Key plugin not showing when exporting
Using Mac OS Big Sur 11.2, on an iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014), 4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4 GB
The option to export Illustrator files to Keynote files: File > Export > Export as... doesn't show the Keynote file Option any more. I am using the plugin created by Christian Holz – @cholz – for over 5 years but it doesn't show up since the last updated of Illustrator a couple of weeks ago and it last update v.25.1 from yesterday didn't fix it. Will it be possible…

Info panel displays nonsensical data when selecting part of a graph
When selecting part of a graph (with Group Select tool), the Info panel shows values that don't make sense. For example, when I select one bar in a graph, X and Y are both 697p, and the width and height are both -2730p6. (The dimensions of the entire graph are 34p11 x 9p5, according to the Info panel.)
This was present in earlier version (and was reported), and it's still a problem.
For those of us who use the graph tools, it makes it extremely difficult to work with precision.1 vote -
