1. Pen tool can't close paths in draw behind mode in certain scenarios

   I'm drawing with the pen tool in draw behind mode. However, every time I start a path on where an anchor is of another path above it is located, I won't be able to close the path by clicking the starting anchor point. It will instead just create another anchor point in that exact same spot and continue the path.

   Seems like this issue was addressed in the latest Beta build 29.6.57. Please try to update and see if it works how it should.

5. Object color defaults when selecting new colors

   When selecting a new color swatch value from the menu (see image) often times when the document has first been opened or an object has not been selected during this session, any selected objects revert to the default appearance - 1 pt outline, black stroke, white fill - regardless of what they were before. Then you have to undo what happened and try again to apply your changes. It's a minor inconvenience, but it only showed up in the last 3 updates. A clean install doesn't fix this issue. This can happen just a single time, or multiple times with a file.

7. Recent colors become None when Global or Spot Colors are used

   Some Recent Colors are displayed as the None Swatch when Spot or Global colors have been added to the Recent Colors.
   Turn on in the Edit > Color Settings all checkboxes for warnings about Mismatches or Missing profiles.
   The default is unchecked. When they are unchecked, you will get no warning when opening a file with Global (or Spot) Colors in the Recent Colors and the file just opens without showing the problem.
   When you have turned the warning checkboxes On in the Color Settings and have Quit Illustrator after adding the Global or Spot Colors in the Recent Colors, you get a warning about a Missing Profile (which is not true) when you create or open a file while the Global (or Spot) Colors are still in the Recent Colors (they are available across documents). If you click OK the file opens, just as it would with the warnings off. The warning will not show again during the current session. But if you click Cancel (as many times as the number of Global/Spot Colors that you have in your Recent Colors). The file will open with the recent Global/Spot Colors converted to None.

8. Toggle Visibility Not Working in Layers Panel

   Windows 11 desktop, 12 GB graphics card, 32 GB RAM, Intel processor with 3.60 GHz, 64 Bit x64-based processor
   29.7.1 (64 bit)
   I am creating a design and trying to toggle the background layers to compare. When I click on the eye icon in the Layers panel, the layers sometimes go on/off and most often do not. Essentially, toggling visibility does nothing.

   I have checked that my layers are visible in the hamburger menu. I have restarted Ai and restarted my computer.

   My document is saved to the cloud - I did get an autosave is temporarily disabled warning and I get a plugin conflict message when I open AI - I have no plugins active in Ai that I can find in the Preferences settings. The plugin warning is for LogiOptionAi2020.aip

   The screenshots show that the background doesn't change even when I toggle the layers on or off. This problem only happens with the one layer- the top ones I have toggled off and when I toggle them back on they show up.

10. Threaded text areas display only first lines when Adobe Every-Line composer is used, since 29.6

    Issue: two or more threaded text areas no longer render all text inside. The text does still exist (as visible in View > Outline) but it does not render on screen or when exporting / saving out. Whereas text flashes visibility for single text areas with no threading, but does eventually show.

    Actions taken: fresh text areas; freshly typed text (not copy-pasted); fresh document with fresh areas and fresh text. All do not render fully. Also ensured text is at the very top with no unseen masks or shapes obscuring. Turning off and on Outline View, bounding box, edges etc.

    Temporary solution: rolling back to v29.5. In this earlier version threaded text areas render fully and correctly.

    Ai: v29.6.x and v29.7
    PC: Win 11 Enterprise; build 26100.4652 and 22631.5624.

11. CEPHtmlEngine keeps macOS awake

    CEPHtmlEngine erroneously keeps macOS awake by setting PreventUserIdleSystemSleep

    See details below, CEPHtmlEngine is unnecessarily keeping macOS awake using the power management API and asserting PreventUserIdleSystemSleep, on this device it has been asserting and renewing its assertion for 170 hours.

    This presents a massive physical security risk to enterprise customers as it defeats IT controlled sleep/screensaver/walkaway preferences to lock the computer.

13. Ai2025 - The Pencil tool has become unusable again! There's no accuracy—it’s too smooth!!!

    I’m here to post about the same issue I did in 2014.
    The Pencil tool has become unusable once again! It’s smoothing too much, even on the maximum accuracy setting (left first slider tick).

    Back in 2014, when Adobe rewrote the Pencil tool, you removed the previous numeric settings and replaced them with four ticks. All of them were too smooth and took too much control over the path, leading to imprecise bubbly and smooth drawings.

    I made a post about this back then, and Adobe was super nice to respond by adding a fifth lowest left tick with the previous lowest accurate settings, which I’ve been using for nearly 20 years now: "lowest fidelity, 0.5px smoothness, 0%."
    Here is the post I made in 2014:
    PLEASE PLEASE adobe. The new pencil tool has become unusuble to me
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/please-please-adobe-the-new-pencil-tool-has-become-unusuble-to-me/m-p/5771656#M19352

    Now, after the 2025 update, the pencil tool once again is smoothing too much, even on the lowest accuracy setting. This is making mine and my colleagues work impossible because the tool doesn’t generate enough anchor points to create the detailed and organic edge illustrations we need. Not everyone is looking to draw smooth, bubbly shapes!

    This is crucial in an free hand drawn operation such as the pencil tool because anchor points act as the resolution of the path, determining the type of edges you want to express in your drawings. The character of the edge is essential for the final look.

    Why shouldn't we have more control over the path resolution, allowing for higher values? Currently, Illustrator seems to be leaning towards reducing the resolution of our paths, limiting our creative control leaning towards more smooth bubbly or geometric style.

    Inkscape is fantastic in this regard as it doesn't limit the resolution the artist gets to add to the path. It has a numeric setting where you can set what you need. Unfortunately inkscape falls short on other aspects of the freehand pencil drawing process, for instance you can't redraw over and over again and sculpt your path with the pencil tool as you can in illustrator.

    With this post I’m requesting:

    (1) To fix the bug and bring back the ability to generate more anchor points on the path for accuracty on the lowest tick with "lowest fidelity, 0.5px smoothness, 0%."

    (2) I'm also making an additional feature request for the ability to add even more anchor points than that by adding an even lower sixth tick that generates even more anchor points, with a setting like "lowest fidelity, 0.2px smoothness, 0%."

    Alternatively, and idealy, please bring back the numeric values like you had before that allow us to set the path resolution more precisely, similar to how Inkscape still handles it.

    This won’t slow down the application in any significant way—today's machines can handle it. I've pushed Illustrator to its limits for many years, and higher resolution paths have never been an issue. There's no reason to hold back on giving users more control over the paths and the style of their illustrations.

    I would love to assist in testing it out.

    Please Adobe.

    Thanks

    This issue is fixed in AI 29.0.1 Hot Fix Update.

14. CMYK colors get recalculated in a document with color mode changed from RGB to CMYK, using Color Picker

    According to the user, they often receive files created in RGB mode, and they have to convert them to CMYK, using File > Document Color Mode, make specific changes and push documents further. And while the document becomes CMYK, Ai keeps recalculating supplied values, as if these get double-converted via RGB space.

    There are easy steps to reproduce this problem from scratch.
    1. Create a new RGB document, using Web Document Profile
    2. Go File > Document Color Mode > CMYK
    3. Create a rectangle
    4. Open Color and enter a CMYK color, like 15-30-45-15, tabbing through values. Press Enter while being in the last K field.
    5. Open Color Picker again and check the values.

    Expected — CMYK 15-30-45-15.
    The one I get, using my Color Settings, is 21,15-32,8-47,81-7,71

    If I enter these same values in Color panel — they get accepted fine.
    Sometimes the Color Picker becomes sane and stops converting, but I haven’t figured out actions needed... perhaps something with the order of focusing fields?

    My guess is that somehow Ai treats the HEX field as the last selected one (even though it’s not), adn uses the value in it as the final choice...
    Please fix.

    According to the user, they often receive files created in RGB mode, and they have to convert them to CMYK, using File > Document Color Mode, make specific changes and push documents further. And while the document becomes CMYK, Ai keeps recalculating supplied values, as if these get double-converted via RGB space.

    There are easy steps to reproduce this problem from scratch.
    1. Create a new RGB document, using Web Document Profile
    2. Go File > Document Color Mode > CMYK
    3. Create a rectangle
    4. Open Color and enter a CMYK color, like 15-30-45-15, tabbing through values. Press Enter… more

16. 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.

    Environment

    • macOS 12.7.5
    • Illustrator 2025 (29.6.1)

    Steps to reproduce

    1. Open the attached file "duplicate_artboards.pdf(ai)"
    2. Select Artboard 1 and execute "Duplicate Artboard"

    Actual result

    The error message "Cannot create Artboard outside the canvas. Please rearrange and try again." appears and stops.

    

    Expected result

    The artboard is duplicated with the Y coordinate shifted down and the X coordinate aligned with the left edge of the previous artboard row.

    Workaround

    Select the artboard with the Artboard tool, then copy and paste.

    「アートボードを複製」は、アートボードがカンバスの右端近くに1つでも存在すると必ず失敗します

    アートボードパネルにある「アートボードを複製」コマンドを使ってアートボードを複製する際、書類内に1つでもアートボードがカンバスの右端近くにあり、新しいアートボードがカンバスからはみ出す座標になると失敗します。

    Y方向に折り返して複製することができません。そのため、そういったアートボードが書類内にあるときは永遠に複製が成功することはありません。

    アートボードのコピー＆ペーストや、「新規アートボード」では折り返して生成することができるので、「アートボードを複製」もそうなるのが、予期する結果です。

    環境

    • macOS 12.7.5
    • Illustrator 2025(29.6.1)

    再現手順

    1. 添付したduplicate_artboards.pdf(ai)を開く
    2. Artboard 1を選択し「アートボードを複製」を実行する

    実際の結果

    「カンバスの外側にアートボードを作成できません。再配置を行って、もう一度実行してください。」とエラーが出て止まります。

    

    予期する結果

    Y座標を下にずらし、X座標は前のアートボード行の左端に合わせてアートボードが複製されます。

    回避策

    アートボードツールでアートボードを選択した後コピーし、ペーストします。

17. 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 Document” are enabled.

    It seems Illustrator 2025(~29.7.1) is not detecting the file system change event when switching directly from Photoshop.
    Could you please confirm if this is a known bug, and if a fix is planned in a future update?

19. 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.

20. ダイレクト選択ツールの動作がおかしい - Direct Selection Tool can’t move points with Snap to Grid enabled

    ダイレクト選択ツールの動作がおかしいです。(English below Japanese)
    「グリッドにスナップ」がONの状態で、グリッドに沿っていないオブジェクトの辺やアンカーポイントをダイレクト選択ツールでクリックしようとしても選択できません。また、クリッピングマスクを施した画像に関しては、「グリッドにスナップ」がOFFの状態であっても、マスクの辺やアンカーポイントを選択できません。
    このようなことは以前は発生していませんでした。なお、環境設定をリセットしても直りません。

    使用OS：mac OS Sequoia（バージョン15.3.2）
    Illustratorのバージョン：29.4

    The direct selection tool is not working properly.
    When “Snap to Grid” is enabled, clicking on an edge or anchor point of an object that does not follow the grid will not select it correctly. Also, regarding clipping masks, even if “snap to grid” is disabled, the edge or anchor point cannot be selected.
    This troubling event had not occurred before. Resetting the preferences does not fix the problem.

    OS: mac OS Sequoia (ver.15.3.2)
    Illustrator: ver.29.4
