  1. The GPU preview renderer glitches out on distortion meshes when the canvas is rotated.

    See title, really. It might just be on distortion meshes inside of clipping masks; that's where I found it and I didn't bother checking for any further details.

  2. Voreinstellung Einheit Allgemein Millimeter wird nicht gespeichert

    Beim Schließen von AI sollte die Voreinstellung Einheit-Allgemein-Millimeter sowie alle anderen Voreinstellungen gespeichert werden. Das ist leider nicht der Fall.

    Meine Systemangaben:
    Windows 10, AI Version 25.2

    Wenn ich die voreingestellte Allgemeine Einheit von punkt auf Millimeter ändere, dann die geöffnete Datei speichere, AI schließe, wieder öffne und irgendeine Datei öffne, oder auch AI durch den Aufruf einer Datei oder der vorher geöffneten Datei öffne, ist die Allgemeine Einheit wieder auf dem voreingestellten Wert "Punkt".

    Ich erwarte mir, daß der Wert dann Millimeter ist, weil ich ja die Voreinstellungen geändert habe.

    Freundliche Grüße

  4. Random movement in text layers

    After saving and exiting Illustrator (26.0.1) on Mac OS Monterey (happened on Big Sur as well) when I open the file later the text layer have moved randomly. While not a repeatable bug, it does happen more than 50% of the time.

  5. Cannot delete or merge duplicate colors

  6. Text disappearing when outlined

    When outlining text in Illustrator, some of the text is disappearing, as though under a clipping mask, The text outlines are present but the text is not visible.
    Turning the fill to overprint stops this happening, but I can't overprint white text....

    I have tried on a brand new file, so there are no formatting issues. The typeface is irrelevant it happens on all types .otf or .ttf...

  7. Rotation of a text while Snap to Grid is on

    You can't rotate a text with the Rotate tool when Snap to grid is on.

    Please watch the GIF attached.

    Then try to replicate.

    Open the attached document.
    Enable Snap to Grid.
    Select text.
    Grab Rotate tool.
    Hold Shift (or even do not).
    Try to rotate the text.
    Failure?
    If yes, move it a bit to the side (with snapping still on) and try again.
    Experiment a bit with different positions.

  8. Display wigging out when placing images

    Displaying crazy in 26.0.2. When drawing or placing images, screen goes completely white or shows a strange box with an "x". No matter where i click, the mouse click will drag from the corner of the item on the artboard, scaling it.

  9. exporting PDF files

    You're phasing out eps files. I gather I should now provide logos files in PDF.
    However, I can't export each art board (I use artboards for the variations of the logos I design) as a separate file. I don't believe a client wants a multiple paged PDF for a logo!
    What do you expect our work flow to be?

  10. Illustrator fills trash with "Recovered files"

    Illustrator 2021 on OS X Mojave keeps filling my trash with "Recovered files". So what's going on with it? I don't know what the issue might be as there is no crash or something else. It seems like a bug from Illustrator.

  14. Error opening Edit menu

    Not sure when this started happening. When a graphic object is selected on the artboard (JPEG in this case), the Edit tab in the main menu bar produces an error when clicked on. Other tabs seem fine. When trying to open the Edit menu, the attached error pops up. Once the error is dismissed, the dropdown menu opens. This happens every time the process is repeated. It is not helped by restarting either Illustrator or the Mac.

  15. Touchscreen drawing not working

    I am on a Lenovo IdeaPad, and the touchscreen drawing does not work even in touchscreen mode. Rarely will it show what I drew and even then, it is after I have lifted my finger. I can only really place dots. Also, pinch-to-zoom doesn't work. Seems to be related to this forum post: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/unable-to-draw-with-a-pen-on-touch-screen-on-windows/m-p/11376148

  17. Some process, probably library syncing, overwrote graphic updates

    Almost lost half a day's work. Though I lost a bunch of time and productivity figuring out how to get it back.

    A library graphic got overwritten by an older version of that library graphic by something other than a human being.

    I was working in Illustrator 26.0.1 and Photoshop 22.5.2 at the same time on a Windows 10 machine. I had the graphic as a Smart Object in Photoshop. But since it's a graphic it was being edited in Illustrator.

    I also had Illustrator 26.0.1 opened on my Windows 10 laptop cause that's where I do my pen work,…
