1. GPU Issue in Touch Mode on Surface Pro (2017)

   Hello,
   I have been having a repeated issue with Illustrator leaving checkerboard artifacts onscreen when drawing in Touch Mode on my Surface Pro. After drawing for a while, Illustrator will crash. I've included a clip displaying the artifacts I'm talking about.

   A related issue happens at random when drawing, where the outline will display in red while I'm drawing it, then the line won't actually get drawn. Sometimes when selecting or scaling objects they will similarly display the scale happening, but then nothing actually happens. Usually Illustrator crashes after that.

2. Measurement labels is not showing properly (Smart Guide)

   Hello,

   I found a bug that is not showing measurement labels properly on a specific environment.

   in Windows 10 Pro Korean,
   English version of Illustrator CC is not showing measurement labels properly (it just shows a narrow gray box, no text at all inside of the box).

   When I install Korean version of Illustrator CC, it shows the measurement labels properly. I think this causes because of the font issues or Windows local system.

   I hope this bug is going to be fixed as soon as possible.

   Thanks

4. Guides are too thin since last update

   Since the last update (23.0.4) guides are almost invisible, especially when using the document grid in combination.

   This is only the case when GPU performance is on. When it's switched off, the guides appear as usual. In the previous Illustrator version this problem didn't exist...

   The strange thing is: while dragging other guides, or making a rectangle selection with the Selection Tool, the guides become thicker again. But, when I release the mouse again, they become thin again.

   I work on a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) model, NVIDEA GeForce GT 750M 2GB Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB. MacOS Mojave Version 10.14.4. I also work on an external screen.

   EDIT Now I've opened another document, the guides behave as usual again...

5. "QuickDraw" (artwork/preview) malfunctions

   Not clear this is actually GPU-related.
   This bug dates back 32 years, all the way to Illustrator 1.0, when Adobe used the term "QuickDraw" to describe it. Terminology has changed, the bug has not. It has happened on every version of Illustrator, on every Mac, under every operating system.
   I've sent the attached screenshots and videos in the past, no response.
   The bug manifests as stray lines or incorrect vectors at certain seemingly-random resolutions.
   In preview mode, in addition to above problems, (possibly a different bug), I often get sectors or areas that do not fill or redraw correctly. Sometimes a black rectangle where none should be, sometimes just blank white space.
   sometimes some stray diagonal lines, often when I 'move around' in a document in preview mode, new areas do not "refresh".

6. White flickering screen: Illustrator 2019 gltches out video card in Macs with AMD Radeon R9 M390 2 GB graphics card...

   it's an Apple & Adobe conflict with each other regarding the AMD graphic card driver(s) + Mojave OS 10.14. Rolling back to Illustrator 2018 doesn't fix it. I first thought it was a physical hardware problem (dying graphics card) until we experienced the problem on multiple Macs in the same way.

   This issue didn't exist prior to updating to Mojave, however, I think Mojave and Adobe were fine together until updating to Adobe CC's 2019 products which had the initial conflict and, in turn, created the same conflict for the prior Adobe CC versions + Mojave.

   I 100% believe there is a problem with the 2019 suite on Macs running MacOS 10.14 Mojave AND this particular graphics card: AMD Radeon R9 M390 2 GB. I think the drivers for this particular model of graphic card were not updated or accounted for by Adobe when updating their products to the 2019 suite. The problem did not exist when we updated to Mojave and were running the 2018 suite. Everything ran just fine, including having the GPU performance turned on. I would even say that possibly the initial 2019 23.0 version of Illustrator was fine, but one of the incremental updates messed it up. I think I was running 23.0 with no problems as well, but I can't be totally sure. Now, the 2018 version experiences the same issue.

   So -- I believe something in an Adobe 2019 update messed its functionality with Macs that have the AMD Radeon R9 M390 graphics card, in turn, passing the problem on to previous versions of Illustrator and possibly InDesign.

   The quick fix (it seems for now) is to turn off GPU Performance. This makes using Illustrator very draggy and slow, but the screen flicker has stopped. This needs to be addressed by Adobe and fixed.

   More details and discussion on this video card glitch can be found here:

7. GPU rendering problem. - My graphics appear pixelated at certain zoom levels. Comes and goes. Very annoying when working.

   This happened a few months or weeks ago.

   I am using Macbook Pro - 2017
   OS version: Mojave 10.14.5 (18F132)
   Adobe Illustrator: 23.0.4
   This issue disappears when I turn of GPU rendering but I am used to working with GPU rendering ON.

   I am hoping for a fix on this soon or maybe there is already. please let me know. Thanks :)

11. wrong monitor profile applied when moving AI to a different screen in a multi-monitor setup

    Setup: MacOS, latest version / AI, latest version / three different displays (two wide gamut) attached to 2017 MacBook Pro 15" 2017

    The monitor profile of the display on which a file is opened first seems to be still in effect to render colors, after moving the window to another monitor (with a different gamut) while in GPU preview.
    Colors are quite off when moving a window from a wide-gamut display to an sRgb one and vice versa.
    Overprint view or CPU view seem to be correct, but are very slow to work with.

12. GPU performance

    GPU performance in iMac 27" 5k with AMD Radeon R9 M380 2 GB
    turns colors to a pale tone.

    Using CPU preview turns back the vivid colors but it slows down the performance.

    Any clue how to fix this?

    I'm using the latest update of Mojave and Illustrator v. 23.0.1

13. GPU Stroke Rendering Issue

    OS: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 Build 17G5019
    2 x Xeon E5-2690 v4 CPUs (don't ask ;) )
    64 GB RAM
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 8191 MB
    GPU Driver Version: 387.10.10.10.40.122
    CUDA Driver Version: 418.105

    Hi, I noticed a small rendering issue with strokes in GPU mode. The boundaries seem to be somewhat inaccurate, to the point that in certain situations (regardless of whether or not they're joined and by any method), suck as a tee shape, a small bulge of one stroke can appear beyond the edge of another, even though they shouldn't.

    See attached pictures, the problem area is circled. It is subtle, but visible. There is a slight bulge extending outwards towards the right, presumably from the horizontal path at that junction. This is incorrect, the paths are joined and have identical stroke settings.

    In CPU rendering, it renders correctly, and no bulge is visible. It seems to happen somewhat inconsistently, it doesn't always effect path junctions like that, only sometimes.

    Also, the stroke width visibly changes slightly when switching between CPU and GPU mode. In my case, GPU mode seems to draw them slightly wider (higher stroke pt value) than it should be.

    I wonder if this might be due to error introduced by using single precision floats on the GPU (which I assume is the case, considering how much lower double precision float performance is on most GPUs)? Who knows.

    Regardless, the obvious workaround is to simply use CPU rendering, and it is relatively minor. But it is important to have an accurate representation of what you're doing.

16. GPU continues to randomly turn only white to black (not inverting!)

    an ongoing issue with CC is the random and unprovoked flipping of Black to white on screen. Only the color white does this. This is not a case of color being inverted. It is only white in a file that suddenly turns black and then needs to be closed and reopened to fix.

17. White bars over the screen when turning Overprint Preview off?

    Hi

    Been noticing a bug where I get white bars over my screen as I scroll – seems to happen mainly if I come out of Overprint Preview. If I float my tabs to windows or switch Overprint preview back on it cures it, but obviously this isn't actually a fix and is pretty annoying as it happens so often.

    Can anyone suggest a more permanent fix please?

    Thanks

    Ben

18. Overprint preview of overprinting black shows black as semi-opaque

    When something is printed as 100% black and set to overprint, the output will be pure black. No registration issue as the 100% element is carried through the other color breakouts. However, in AI CC 2019m when I zoom way in on text which is 100% black and overprinting, I can actually see through the black type. The intensity of the black varies based on what is underneath. One can even watch the black become muted in appearance as one zooms.

    Shouldn't 100% black appear as 100% black regardless of being set to overprint or not.

19. Getting odd artifacting when using GPU preview on illustrator

    Shapes look as if they arent inline with each other when using GPU preview, CPU preview fixes the issue but of course I shouldnt have to be running it on CPU preview. The jaggies seem to stem from where there are anchor points, but not every anchor point.
