    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。

    再現ファイルのご提供、および追加情報のご提供により、画面表示のグレーアウト現象を再現確認いたしました。

    ・使用マシンが Intel Mac
    ・環境設定の GPU パフォーマンスが無効
    ・複数ドキュメントを開いている
    ・開いている2番目以降のドキュメントで 1200% 以上にズームする

    上記のすべての条件が揃うと再現されますが、ズームアウトすると表示が戻ります。
    また、GPU パフォーマンスを有効にするほか、単一ドキュメントを開いてでの作業で現象を回避できます。
    この現象は、M1 Mac(M1 ネイティブ、および Rosetta 起動)では再現しません。

    今後、詳細な検証作業を行います。
    情報のアップデートがありましたら、こちらでご報告いたします。
    よろしくお願いいたします。

  2. Groups inside compound paths lead to problems

    Today I'm going to bring you awareness to the way Illustrator treats groups in compounds.

    For me it sounds strange already — why would I want a group inside of a compound path?
    What would I use it for?
    Ai won’t allow me to go isolate this group to edit its components.
    Ai would not show it in the Layers tree — for some reason we can’t expand a compound path to see its children, like we can do with the groups.
    Ai won’t give scripts a way to see these groups inside of compound paths — and this leads…

  3. Illustrator 2021 (Version 25.0.0) crashing when running Variable Importer script

    Ever since the update, the program crashes when you either "test" the files before importing the variables or even if you skip this step and directly choose importing the variables, it completely crashes the application. I require this script for my job and have a project due this Friday, October 30th 2020. Please address immediately.

    Hi,

    Thanks for reporting this issue, Illustrator Team really appreciate this.
    We are able to reproduce this issue and investigating this further.

    Kindly use below mentioned workaround meanwhile:
    1)Set macOS UI to “System Preferences → General → Highlight Color to any other options in UI than Graphite”

    Regards

  6. File won't SAVE nor SAVE AS; only SAVE AS COPY

    Working on MacBook Pro, Catalina OS, Illustrator 25.2
    The "SAVE" file is not an option. Whether an existing (an existing file with or without changes), or a new file - I cannot "SAVE".

    The "SAVE AS" option looks to be available, but then it does not work.

    The only thing that is a workable option is "SAVE AS COPY". Which is nonsense. This just started happening and I can't fix it. I've tried uninstalling Illustrator and re-installing. No change.

    This is completely unacceptable and I've wasted 3 hours of precious deadline time trying to figure this out. HELP!!!

    ARGH!!!!

  8. Lasso tool not selecting

    Since updating Illustrator a month or so ago, the lasso tool rarely works. No vector points are selected and I'm having to use the direct select tool instead.

    Does it happen all the time for you, or occasionally? in any file, or a specific one? If a certain one — can you share it?

    What is your exact OS details and version used?

    Can you record a short video demonstrating the issue?

    Please comment back, the team lack details on this issues and can’t really start investigations this.

  9. Annoying undo behaviour - please don't undo the values in the dialogs

    It has been like this forever but it is very annoying all the same: when you have selected an object and you hit Return to move it by a value of n px, and you undo that action, the x and y values in the Move dialog have been restored to their former value. 99% of the time this is annoying and not what I need. I want the value to be remembered and not undone. I only want the OPERATION to be undone.

  10. Exporting assets as SVG with asset export tool is buggy

    Asset export in illustrator is a very convenient tool, the only problem I found is when exporting my drawings to SVGs they get distorted, but when I take my objects one by one to a single document and fit them in an artboard and save the document as SVG the problem resolves (a big process), essentially because SVG saving settings for saving a document isn't the same when for exporting with asset export, I believe it isn't a big problem to solve and I hope for it to get fixed soon, I can reply with images to assist my point.

  14. Missing transparency in placed PDFs

    I do have issues with Illustrator displaying transparencies of placed PDFs as solid.

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Open a new document.
    2. Draw two partially overlapping rectangles with different colors.
    3. Set he opacity of the frontmost rectangle to 50%.
    4. Save this document as a PDF with setting Illustrator Standard (see attached file).
    5. Open a second document.
    6. Place the PDF file.

    Expected result:

    The topmost rectangle should be displayed with transparency.

    Actual result:

    The topmost rectangle is not transparent.

    If you save the document with the placed PDF itself as PDF file, the rectangle is still transparent, so this is a display issue…

  17. GPU Preview not available (grayed out) after editing artboard

    With newest version of illustrator the GPU acceleration and GPU-Preview fails in some files. To test it i have created a blank document and the GPU preview works. But when I edit the artboard, the GPU preview is turned off at that moment and cannot be reactivated. Reset the Illustrator-Settings to default doesn't fix it.

    Illustrator 25.2, MacPro2013, GPU AMD FirePro D700, Monitor 2560x1600Pixel, Wacom-Tablet, MacOs Catalina and Mojave testet.

  18. Placed images vanish

    When system (Windows) crashes with Illustrator open, any placed or linked images are missing in the recovery file, thus rendering it unusable.
    Warning appears, asking me to relink " " file (even if the linked file has a name), which I can't do due to missing information. Link palette is not displaying any information on what file it was either.
    I have never seen this bug before, but it has happened the last two times for me, and is very unfortunate.

  19. Convert to Artboards doesn't work if there are Sublayers on the same Layer

    I get the following error message when I try to convert a Rectangle to an Artboard when the rectangle exists on a layer that also contains a Sublayer:

    "To create Artboards, select non-rotated rectangles that are not clipping masks."
