1. Will not change stroke color

   I am trying to trace an object on illustrator but it will not let me change the color of the stroke, it will not even bring up the color swatches in the normal stroke panel for me to click on. I have tried resetting essentials classic, resetting preferences, and changing the view.

   There is nothing wrong with the file, as I can tell...

   The Swatches panel is empty indeed, the only swatch in it is the sport RGB white. Perhaps somebody deleted them to save some file size?

   If you want to have default swatches though, you can load them back.

   Open Swatches panel, click the 'bookshelf' 'Swatch Libraries menu' button, locate 'Default Swatches' and choose 'Web'. Now you can select a swatch you need directly from the opened panel, or drag-n-drop a selection of swatches you need into the main Swatches panel.

   Please comment back.

2. Transform>Reflect defaulting to random angle

   At some point in the last week (version 25.0.1) right clicking on a selection and applying "Transform>Reflect" opens up the reflect UI panel but instead of defaulting to horizontal or vertical, it's defaulting to "Angle" and a completely random number. Constantly having to correct this is a right faff.

   It's tricky to recreate but has happened multiple times over the last few days. In this case reflecting a cat 50.9 degrees!?

   Maybe I'm just the only one!

3. Drop Shadow, Outer Glow, Etc. renders incorrectly on large polygons angled lines only

   When I make a drop shadow, outer glow etc. there are places on the shadow that end abruptly in intervals. I make a triangle or any polygon (even a rectangle that is rotated). Go to Effect > Illustrator Effect > Stylize > Drop Shadow. Multiply: 75%:0":0":0.5". Color Black. I've tried other colors and other settings for Blur and Mode. This does the exact same thing using Outer Glow. I have a 66" x 36" artboard on the examples below.

5. DWG file won't display after Open... in Ai

   Want to import and edit a DWG drawing that functions perfectly on Autodesk website file preview page. (I don't use Autodesk.)
   All 67 layers and hundreds of sub-layers are listed on Layers panel and selected but Ai shows only a blank white page.
   System is Dell AW17 laptop with nVidia 1070 graphics; Ai reports Intel 530 graphics card 'unsupported driver' on startup but I am not using it; Windows 10 and Ai fully up to date

7. Unchecking "print as bitmap" does not work

   Basic shape artwork is printing jagged/pixelated edges. Unchecking "print as bitmap" does nothing, as the print summary still shows print as bitmap as "on". Tried setting print to 2400dpi, but lines still jagged.

   Save as PDF and print with Acrobat results in beautiful smooth lines

8. Export for screens

   I just realised that "Asset Export" doesn't retain the CMYK colour mode. This is a huge problem. All the time I've been exporting the PDF's from my CMYK working colour mode, only to discover that my PDF's have been converted to RGB instead. Why one earth do you do this?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Curse you Adobe!!

   If you don't include the ability to export files as CMYK from Asset Export, then make the darn PDF, JPG, and SVG easier to export!!!!!!!!!

   Why the heck do you have to make things so **** difficult for your users?! I don't understand you!!!!!

9. Features we could easily do without

   My idea is to limit the bad ideas. Such as "Invite to Edit." besides the fact that every good artist knows that design-by-committee yields bad designs all you have to do is send the file to the user you want to collaborate with! It's not a feature!!! We could already do it just fine and we didn't have to throw our intellectual property into a cloud which could be stolen or compromised by anyone at any time. The way Adobe's programs crash all the time do you think I'm going to entrust my clients files to your cloud? if I keep them in floppy disks on my front lawn I think they are safer.

   Many new features? I counted 3 and none of them help me. Centering Japanese glyphs, really? Maybe for the Japanese version but I can center anything 15 different ways. This is not a feature.

   What's up with putting a box with a useless anchor point around a locked object. And you can't click through it which defeats the purpose of locking it. Good thing someone mentioned that mislabeled box you have to click to put it back the way it was! Why did we need that?

   And then there is GPU perfomance...(sigh) a click box to make illustrator work faster. WHo would click it off because they want to work slower? Of course there is one problem...It doesn't work and caused multiple other problems! But you went on and on about this great new feature even putting it on the file name for a while there. If illustrator works faster, trust me, WE WILL KNOW!

10. オブジェクト（主にテキスト）が選択できない

    打ち込みをしたテキストが選択できないことが多々発生しております。
    その部分は印刷もできないので文字が抜けたまま出力し現場に回ってしまうという業務に支障が出ています。
    保存をして落とし再び立ち上げると問題は解決するのですが毎回その動作をするわけにもいかず、必ず不具合が起こっているわけでもないので困っています。これはPCの問題でしょうか？ご回答お願いします。(著作権等の問題で一部しか画像がのせれません)

11. Line tool is immune to the Constrain Angle

    When you set up Constraint Angle to 30 or whatever is different form 0 or 90, pick up Line tool and hold Shift, it still snaps to 0, 45, 90, 135... instead of 30, 75, 120, 165...

    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    Hooray, it is fixed in the latest Beta 29.5.0.15 — the Constrain Angle is now respected as expected for the Line Tool. Please test it and comment back.

12. Reading SVG does not respect dominant-baseline="middle" attribute

    For <text> elements

    dominant-baseline="hanging" and dominant-baseline="baseline" are parsed correctly, with text aligned on top and bottom, respectively.

    But dominant-baseline="middle" is not respected, and is instead rendered as dominant-baseline="baseline".

    This produces misaligned text, which is displayed aligned normally by Edge, Firefox, Chrome.

    Cheers

13. Merge button in Pathfinder panel works incorrectly

    Merge button in Pathfinder now works the same as Trim. It cuts out invisible parts of objects but leaves them separated. Merge should unite shapes with same color. This is one of most used operations when creating logos and it is now broken. Sad.

    Merge effect however works correctly, so current workaround is to group objects together, apply Effect > Pathfinder > Merge, then use Object > Expand Appearance.

    Steps to reproduce:
    Create two red and one blue rectangle. All without stroke.
    Position them so they slightly overlap each other.
    Open Pathfinder panel, click Merge (3rd icon at the bottom row)
    Ungroup and inspect.

    Expected result:
    Red rectangles become one shape.

    Actual result:
    All rectangles remain individual shapes, same as if clicked Trim

14. Pencil tool fidelity issue when smoothing lines added anchor points NEW AI VERSION

    The pencil tool is not responding to the fidelity even if is 100% smooth it will add anchor points making the drawing really wobbly. I noticed this only happens on the new Illustrator2021 version running on Mojave 11.1. Seems to be a common issue currently See link below:

15. Spot colours in gradients are not exported to PDF

    If I have a gradient that includes a spot colour, and then export that file as a PDF, the spot colour is removed from the gradient. This happens no matter what PDF export setting I use.

    See example images attached.

16. "View Using GPU" Greys Out Using Images with "ProPhoto RGB" Colour Profiles

    AI Version: 25.2
    OS: MacOS 11.2.1
    Using GPU Preview
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports)

    Problem:
    - "View Using GPU" is visible and enabled
    - Adding linked images (in this case a JPEG) with a "ProPhoto RGB" colour profile applied to the image file will cause "View Using GPU" to become disabled and greyed out.

    Expected Behaviour:
    - Linked Images with any colour profile applied should not effect the ability to use the "View Using GPU" setting.

    Workaround:
    - Open the image in Photoshop and convert it to another colour profile like sRGB IEC61966-2.1 then save the image.
    - Delete the image from your AI file, close your AI file and reopen it and relink the new image.

    Additional keywords for people searching:
    - Scrub zoom, Scrubby zoom

17. Unités de mesure

    Bonjour,

    Il y'a un bug dans les unités de mesure.
    Lorsque nous créons un espace de travail de 1000 x 1000 mm celui-ci une fois exporté en Pdf fait 100 x 100 mm. Les unités par défauts sont indiquées en cm plutôt que mm et la conversion n'est as bonne.

    Merci par avance
