Transparency on PNG not supported when imported or replaced
Transparency mask on the png file shows as white when imported or replaced into illustrator data created last week.
Transparency on the original png file on the illustrator is intact. The problem is seen only when the new png file is uploaded.
I thought it may be the png file, but the problem occurs only on the illustrator.
The problem started after updating both Photoshop 2019 and Illustrator 2019.

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.1 vote -
Fill with overprint set does not align with the path
Paths not aligned to fill or actual graphic on Illustrator 23.0.3 (CC 2019).
Not sure when it happens or how but it will randomly not move the fill with the path lines. Changing the colour or selecting some edges of the path will make it bounce to the correct position.
The file will print with the fill moved.
Once it is corrected it you can't undo problem without reopening the file that is saved like this.
My best guess and only thing I have noticed different about this paths that are wrong is it has a overprint fill turned on.…

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

Fills rendered not accurate compared to edges when using GPU mode
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…

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.

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

Subtracted shapes get drawn with a skewed artifact covering them at the top
This is an odd issue that is kind of hard to explain.
Whenever I am using the Minus Front tool on some objects, the appearance doesn't end up quite right. For example, I subtracted these outlined text characters from a black background. The blue outlines show that they were subtracted correctly, but the white background showing through is cut off in the wrong spots?-

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.

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.

GPU preview glitch
I encounter this glitch since introduction of GPU preview.
Only now I managed to narrow down the conditions to replicate it.When the Control pane is switched off (Window > Control), and Screen Mode is in Fullscreen Mode with Menu Bar, then when the working area is scrolled down, black horisontal lines appear. As if they are somehow traced by the top edge of the working area. Once I zoom out/in, they disappear. Also switching to CPU preview removes the glitch all together. This appears on both retina and non-retina displays.
This does not happen when the Control pane is…

Path guides center edges disappear when dragging a guide from the ruler
Path guides center edges disappear when dragging a guide from the ruler in CC, in previous versions you could quickly line up a guide to the center of a box now you have to zoom out to see the center. Another feature that worked great in previous versions now lost.
1 voteGuides no longer disappear when dragged on canvas or from rulers. However they still do if you move guides together with non-guides objects. Happens in GPU Preview mode only.

Trim View (2019) is rendering properly in GPU view when adding from libraries
Details of your operating system and version of Adobe Illustrator: Windows 10 Insider Build 18312. Illustrator 23.0.1
The steps you were taking when you experienced the issues: When working in Trim View in GPU view, when I add assets from the Libraries panel and move them onto the artboard, my background raster image gets black blocks/rendering issue. If I zoom in and out it goes away until I move the top object again. If I switch to CPU view the issue goes away.[Optional] Upload your Illustrator file or a video
