Adding Bleed to Previously Saved Files
I use Adobe CC. I've been trying to add bleed to a previously saved file without bleed. When I open the file then go to >document setup< I am able to add a 1" bleed, but the red bleed line doesn't appear around my artboards once I click ok. Then when I go back into >document setup< it shows that the bleed has been saved, but it is still not visible in the art files.
6 votesAs stated in the comments, to view bleeds you have to make sure you have View > Guides > Show guides option enabled.
Please comment back if the solution doesn’t work for you.

Scaling an illustration with grouped guides, the guides do not scale
Scaling an illustration with grouped guides, the guides do not scale, even when guides are unlocked. This feature used to work as recently as earlier versions of Illustrator CC 2017. This is a feature that my team and I relied upon to ensure that the correct white space was honored when releasing artwork to other agencies. I agree that locked guides in general should not scale. But if I create a box, convert it to a guide while unlocked, and group it to a logo or illustration, it should scale with the logo even if guides are locked. Illustrator used…

Selected object in locked layer
Objects remain selected when I move them into a non-visible group/layer and lock the group/layer. It is not possible to deselect the object until you unlock and make visible the group. So far I've been able to recreate the problem every time I've tried.

Line breaks can be included in artboard names, causing errors
I'm using Illustrator 26.0.2 on Mac OS Catalina.
I often copy titles from the art and paste them into the artboard name box. If the copied title has a line break in it, the line break character will exist within the artboard name, but will not display. (You can tell it's there when moving the cursor via the arrow key, because the cursor will not move when passing the line break character.)
If there is a line break character in an artboard name and you attempt to export the artboard, you will get a generic error. ("Unable to export the…

Please Select a Key in Current Document
When I attempt to align an object to a key object, I get an error stating Please select a Key in Current Document.
I only have one file open containing one artboard.
I've attempted to move the object I want aligned inside the artboard area as well and still get the same error.
I've attached a screenshot for reference.

Why can't I select and deslect multiple layers with shift& alt anymore?
Oh this drives me crazy,... I suddenly can't select multiple layers by holding down the shift key. And deselecting with alt isn't working either.
Does anyone know how to solve this because I can't work this way.
I already restarted, did an extra update, nothing seems to help.5 votes -
Files preview sticks after opening multiple documents
After having a couple of documents open for roughly an hour, I go to open a new document as well. However, after clicking to open this document I am presented with the preview of the document that was already open in the background.
Now when I click on any one of the three documents in illustrator they all show the same preview. You can see in the screen shots, three different documents showing the same preview.
I have to close Illustrator down and reopen it. This happens Multiple times a day and is disrupting my workflow immensely.

Paste on All Artboards Not Working
I have a design on a single artboard. I want to paste it to other artboards to prepare my color separations for screen printing. When I cut the design and select Paste on All Artboards, it pastes the design the correct amount of times...but NOT on the artboards. It pastes them out in the gray area. I have tried different artboard arrangements, and having different artboards active at the time of paste, but the designs still end up not on the artboards.
5 votesIt is not clear to me if artboards are of same size or different sizes. When we paste an art we take into account artwork’s relative position from the artwork where it was coped from. I have attached a gif to demonstrate my point. if you look at the second circle it is placed outside of other artboards due to relative position in its original artboard.

"File --> New" or "Ctrl+N" fails to create new file in Illustrator 22.0.1 (64-bit)
After opening Illustrator, I'm only able to open existing files. Trying to create a new file by clicking "File --> New" in the menu, or clicking "Ctrl+N" results in a brief pause, but no new artboard or new file appears.

Can't Delete Empty Artboards
I can no longer "delete empty artboards." The feature is there and not grayed out, but when I try to use it, it simply does nothing. My empty artboards remain. This is very inconvenient as I sometimes need to alter documents with several artboards and I have found it to be extremely helpful in the past.

Illustrator keeps stealing focus when opening documents in background...
When selecting a lot of files in windows and then opening them in AI, for every document that opens, AI takes the focus away from whatever I am doing in the background. This is very annoying. Please fix.

大きなキャンパス時にピクセルビューにすると、カーソルキーでのオブジェクト移動時に10pxづつ動いてしまう
M1 Mac mini OS 12.1 / Illustrator 26.0.2
手順
大きなキャンパスでデータを作成
既存デザインデータを貼り付け
ピクセルビューで作業
ピクセル吸着モードで作業
キーボードのカーソルキーの左を押す想定していた結果
環境設定では0.2pxに設定されているので、
1pxづつオブジェクトが移動するはずですが、10pxづつ動いてしまうようです。

Cannot open cloud documents on another device
I have an iMac and Macbook Pro both running Catalina, I am using both AI 2020 and 2021 (on both devices) as I have a plugin that is not yet supported on 2021.
This problem occurs on both devices and both versions of AI, when I work on one device and save to cloud, I cannot then open the saved file on the other device. This works in both directions, no matter which device/version I create the file on. I have to close down illustrator completely and/or restart the device (which is crazy as it is so detrimental to workflow).…4 votes -
New document size - selection problem
When creating a new document, you cannot click into width or height box and select as one and overwrite - previously you could do this.
You have to use backspace - incredibly irritating. Please fix.

shift does not create square artboard, but uses previous proportions
illustrator 2020 - 24.2.3
mac os catalina 10.15.6in the newest version of illustrator, creating a new artboard while pressing shift just creates an artboard at the same dimensions as the previous one, rather than as a square. having to take the extra steps to manually type in exact square dimensions is a real time suck when i have to create many different sizes on one document. there should be a way to get that old setting back!
