グループに含まれるテキストの組方向を正確に表示しない
iMac27inch/i5/32GB mem/1TB SSD/macOS14.7.2
Illustrator ver.26以降で確認Step to Reproduce
1. 新規ドキュメントにポイントテキストを複数作成する。そのうち、いくつかは縦組みに設定。
2. すべてのポイントテキストを選択してグループ化する。
3. ダイレクト選択ツールまたはTツールで縦組みのテキストを選択する。
4. メニュー：書式→組み方向を選択した際に縦組みテキストを選択しているにもかかわらず横組にチェックが入っている。期待する結果
縦組みのテキストを選択した際には該当メニューで縦組みにチェックマークがついている。実際の結果
縦組みを選択しているにも関わらず横組みにチェックマークがついている。この縦組み・横組の表示は選択範囲に複数の状態が含まれた場合にデフォルトの横組が選択されるという挙動になっています。端的に言って、この複数ステートをデフォルトで表示してしまうのも問題です。本来であれば双方にチェックマークがつかない状態で表示するべきところです。
グループ化されたオブジェクトの一部を選択した場合でもこの組み方向の機能はペアレントの状態を参照しているようです。正確に選択範囲の状態を反映した表示にするべきです。EN Translate

Problem with Eyedropper tool on text
Illustrator 30.0 on Mac Ventura 13.7.8
When I try to use the Eyedropper tool on a text, it only samples the object's top Appearance, not the text's at Character level.
In the sample video, the characters should become grey, with the text object having a white outline behind. But you can see it only picks up the white outline and not the character colour.
My Eyedropper tool is set to pick up everything (all boxes are ticked).

Duplicate Artboards will always fail if even one artboard exists near the right edge of the canvas
en
Duplicating an artboard using the Duplicate Artboards command in the Artboards panel will fail if one of the artboards in the document is near the right edge of the canvas and the new artboard is at coordinates that extend beyond the canvas.
It is not possible to duplicate the artboard by wrapping it in the Y direction. Therefore, when such artboards are in the document, it will never succeed.
The expected behavior is that Duplicate Artboards will also do so, since you can copy and paste artboards and New Artboard will generate them with a wrap around.

Auto-update of linked images broken in Illustrator 2025 (works in 2024)
have encountered an issue with Illustrator 2025(~29.7.1) on macOS 15.6.1.
When I edit and save a linked PSD file in Photoshop, Illustrator 2025 does not auto-update the linked image immediately when switching back from Photoshop.
• In Illustrator 2024, this works perfectly: saving in Photoshop → switching to Illustrator → the link updates instantly.
• In Illustrator 2025, the update does not happen unless I first switch to another app or Finder, then return to Illustrator.
• I confirmed this behavior on multiple Macs, both before and after updating macOS.
• Preferences “Update Links Automatically” and “Check Links Before Opening…3 votes -

HEX Franklin Variable Font is Not Visible when Editing
I am on a Mac running Illustrator 29.4. I am trying to use the variable OTF version of HEX Franklin, and all Adobe apps do not render the letterforms. When I try to select the variable font in the dropdown, it just defaults back to Myriad or the default typeface.
Other variable fonts work as intended, but specifically, this one is broken. Any possible fix?

Generative Expand ruins stroked linework
Please fix the Generative Expand. It ruins your linework and makes random lines on object. It becomes impossible to work around because even the scissor tool cant cut it since there is a ton of nodes.
It also gets complicated with the shape builder as that tool ruins the stroke weights.
Lastly the stroke / fill thing it keeps swapping it to fill instead of stroke then you have to re put the lineweights every single time.
Some of the parts of the lines even get removed.2 votes -

Setting Opacity twice wrongly affects the CMYK values on effects underneath
(2019 Mac Pro - Sequoia 15.6.1 - Illustrator 29.8.2)
Draw a box, fill it with 25% black, apply an effect such as Blur through the Appearance Panel.
On a new layer, draw another box which intersects the previous box. Make this new box 50% Magenta. Set it to Darken.
Select the newly created layer and change the blending mode on the entire layer. Set it to Darken as well.
View Separations Preview. Black only. You will notice that the MAGENTA box has intensified the BLACK plate in the areas where it intersects.
This happens when choosing any CMYK color, not…

BUG: Settings for number of decimals in SVG exports resets after restarting Illustrator
Illustrator isn’t saving the number of decimals that has been changed in the "Save as..." and "Export as..." dialog boxes. When quitting Illustrator, the value resets to 1, which isn’t an ideal default setting.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a new file in Illustrator.
- Open "Export as..."
- Select "SVG (SVG)" as the file format.
- Change the number of decimals to a value other than 1.
- Click OK to export the file.
- Quit and reopen Illustrator.
- When you open the Export dialog again, the value for Number of Decimals is reset to 1.
Expected behavior:
The last used value for the number…

29.5.2 MacOS 15.5 M3 Performance degrades over time, after extended use.
Working with the any file, the performance degrades over time. 30min-1 hour it becomes noticeable. CPU slowly move up as time progresses from 10% to 100%. File becomes so slow that it takes 2-3 second for typed text to appear. A restart of AI fixes it.
Files are not point-heavy nor do they have complicated effects.1 vote -
"Use Artboards" unchecked and still exporting artboards for SVG files

Info boxes don’t go away when you stop hovering over the toolbar
When you hover over the toolbar, the info boxes appear and do not go away when you take your cursor off of the tool. It covers my view too much!

Swatch panel and gradient panel won't open at the same time. Can't change color of gradients.
Just upgraded to Illustrator 30.0 and now the swatch panel and gradient panel won't open at the same time. Can't change color of gradients. I've tried resizing, stretching... everything. This wasn't a problem until the upgrade to 30.0.
