  2. unwanted layer merge

    Computer 1 creates a file with 4 layers (Print, reg marks, thru-cut, crease)
    Computer 2 opens file and all layers have been merged onto 1 single layer. In fact the other layers don't even exist anymore. Also everything in the merged layer has a clipping mask over it?
    Yet when computer 1 opens the file again all the layers are still there.

    Same versions of illustrator on computers 1 & 2.

  4. Quitte inopinément

    Avec le système monterey sur un iMac neuf et récent ainsi que sur iPad M1 neuf, l’appli quitte à la moindre action dès lors qu il y a plusieurs calques. Impossible de travailler professionnellement comme avant. Il s’agit peut-être d’une incompatibilité système et nécessite une mise à jour d’urgence.

  5. Paste Remembers Layers

    Updated Illustrator to version 26.0 a day or two ago.

    Continued working in a document created before this. The option "Paste Remembers Layers" is checked but when pasting the artwork it isn't pasted in the sublayers I copied them from.

    Instead all the artwork elements I've copied pastes in the main layer of said sublayers when I try to paste to a different artboard. (all within the same document). When I paste on the same artboard I've copied from it will paste into the top sublayer.

  6. Ctrl+](前面へ移動)を入力すると、稀に選択したオブジェクトが右方向に移動する

    OS:Windows10
    Illustrator v25.4.1とv26.0.1 両方で確認

    JISキーボードにおいて、初期設定では「前面に移動」で登録されているCtrl+]キーを入力すると、稀に選択中のオブジェクトが前面に移動すると同時に右方向へずれる(→キーを入力した時と同じ)挙動をする現象を確認しました。

    キーボード操作だとCtrlキーと]キーを同時に連打すると稀に起き、サードパーティ製のキー入力デバイスで"Ctrl+]"と同時入力するよう設定し機械的に入力すると、より確実に同様の現象が起きます。

    Need More Info  ·  PCM Maro responded

    Illustrator 製品版フィードバックへのご協力ありがとうございます。

    ご報告いただきました現象につきまして検証した結果、以下のような結果が得られました。

    ・「Ctrl」キーと「]」キーを同時ではなく、交互に何度も押し続けると選択されたオブジェクトが右方向へ移動する。

    ・1 秒間に 3 回程度の速度で、交互にキーを押し続けると再現しやすい。

    ・「Ctrl」キーと「[」キーの場合に左へ移動などの現象は発生しない。

    ・macOS では再現しない。

    以上の再現方法でお試しいただき、同様の結果が得られたかどうかをお知らせください。

    お手数をおかけいたしますが、よろしくお願いいたします。

  7. moving a path to an invisible group still enables me to edit

    Hi, I was painting a path with the blob brush, then i decided to paint a new path on top of the other one and i didnt want to join with the original, so I moved the original to an invisible group and proceeded to paint the new path, for my surprise the original in the invisible group joined with the new path, I don't see this like a feature.

  9. Collapsing layers

    LAYER BUGS

    1) when Alt + click on layer, only the TOPMOST sublayer is collapsed. The rest of the sublayers remain expanded

    2) The REAL bug is that when I collapse all layers, save, close, and reopen, ALL LAYERS AND SUBLAYERS ARE AUTOMATICALLY EXPANDED!!! It should remember the state of ALL layers, without regard to whether it is a sublayer or not. The USER COMMUNITY have been asking for a fix to this for at least 10 years!

  10. OS10.13.6 — Illustrator 24.1.2: Paste does NOT remember layers. Oddly, the same thing happened with another upgrade about 1-2 years ago.

  11. Cut and paste doesn't paste to the selected object any more

    Tricky to describe but if I want to quickly get an item to the back of my object stack within a layer, I would normally "cut" with Ctrl-X, selected the background object (say a big rectangle of colour you're using as the bg) then hit "paste" with Ctrl V. It would then paste this object on top of the selected object and behind everything else...

    Now it just pastes on top of everything regardless of which object you have highlighted. Strangely, "paste in place" with Ctrl-F will place the object on top of the highlighted background object as I want…
