  1. 塗りの線幅が縮小すると幅が変わってしまう

    図形や文字の幅をアピアランス→塗りを指定→パスのオフセットで
    幅を変更しています。v29.61と29.6でイラレを使用すると
    縮小などをした際に幅の比率が変わってしまいます。(線幅と効果拡大縮小もチェック済み)
    ※線で作成した図形や文字は比率を守ってくれます
    29.51を使用すると問題なく拡大縮小ができます。
    これはバグなのでしょうか?

  2. Wrong appearance of Drop Shadow effect with text object (non-English characters).

    Wrong appearance of Drop Shadow effect with text object. It looks like effect use incorrect regional standards settings separate from the text itself causing the shadow looks like complete other characters .

    Also, if you turn off BLUR in DROP SHADOW, the shadow becomes normal. And this does not happen with all fonts.

  3. Gaussian Blur preview is slow to calculate

    Gaussian Blur is just so difficult to use, and preview NEVER works.

    When it's activated, to make a change on the objects or font that it is applied to, requires that I always turn it off first and turn it back on later. There is always a long delay for it to appear. The Gaussian blur needs to be redesigned so it is as dynamic and powerful as the feature in Photoshop.

  4. I can't Knockout in a clip mask

    After asking my friend, I found that this problem seems to only exist on Mac systems.

    [p1] Establish a clipping mask group, check Knockout;

    [p2] Drawing shapes within the clipping mask group reduces transparency, but does not have the knockout effect.

    [p3] But if I remove the clipping group and change it to a regular group, I can achieve knockout effect.

    [p4] But previewing in the navigator panel is normal, and Transparency Flattener is also normal.

    This is what I discovered while knockout in the combining group, which made me very distressed because if combining and knockout at the same…

  6. Applying a material to an extruded object says it’s not enough RAM

    I apparently don't have enough RAM to do this. I'm trying to add a material to the border of the left file, it's a fill not a stoke... I have 96GB of RAM.... I am apparently using 26GB of memory. 70 Gb of RAM Should really be enough for almost anything I would think. Please let me know if there's a way I can use these tools if not I'll have to go back to my client and say "Adobe can't do it" once again.

  7. Appearance items below get expanded / unfurled when anything changes in the panel

    Assign many fills to a path using Appearance.
    Do anything with anything in the panel: change a color, assign an effect, add another fill.

    Fills below the current one get unfurled.

    These could be fills just below the current view of the panel, 'below the fold', as one of the attached GIFs show, or all the fills below the last unique one, as in the second GIF.

    I’d test more, but the fact we can’t collapse all the items in the Appearance panel (which is possible with Opt/Alt in Layers!) makes me extremely irritated — so I made a request…

  8. Eyedropper not working when object is within nested groups

    Illustrator V. 29.1
    MacOS Ventura 13.6.2

    I need to be able to direct select objects that are within nested groups and then eyedropper to change how only that object looks. This feature doesn't work correctly and I don't want to have to click + click + click + click + click to get into the isolated object for every single shape I need to do this on every day. See screen recording to better explain. Thank you.

  9. Object extruded in perspective with 3D and Materials renders with split non-matching tiles

    I just want to know what is happening with the messed up preview. I get a correct preview when moving a slider but a FUBAR one when released.

    Step to Reproduce
    1. ポイントテキストをドキュメント上に作成し、任意のテキストを入力する。
    2.作成したテキストに任意のSVGフィルタを適用する。
    3.テキストのトラッキングを適当に入力するかoption+→で文字感覚を操作する。
    4.テキストハイライトは変化するが、フィルタープレビューは変化しない。
    5.また、あらかじめトラッキングを適用した文字列にSVGフィルタを適用するとトラッキングが解除された状態でSVGフィルタが適用される。

    期待する結果
    ver.28のようにSVGフィルタを適用してもトラッキングが機能する。

    実際の結果
    トラッキングを行ってもSVGフィルタのレンダリングが変化しない。

    Step to Reproduce
    1. Create a point text on the document and enter any text.
    2. Apply any SVG filter to the created text.
    3. Enter text tracking as desired or use Option+ARROW to manipulate the text tracking.
    4. The text highlight will change, but the filter preview will not.

  11. El gráfico de un objeto 3D se mueve con el objeto

    Al colocar un gráfico en un objeto 3D, es muy complicado ajustar su posición porque siempre se coloca en el centro y se mueve junto con el objeto.

  12. Using Inflate with 3D & Materials gives a [Clr?] error

    Ever since it was introduced, I haven't been able to access the new 3D & Materials (only the classic version). With any attempt I make to eg. inflate I get this error message: 'The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error [Clr?]'. I use Illustrator 29.6.1 on a Mac Mini M1.

    3.異体字を指定したグリフがデフォルトのグリフにフォールバックした状態でレンダリングされる。

    期待する結果
    指定した異体字のままSVGフィルタが適用される。

    実際の結果
    異体字はデフォルトのグリフに変更された状態でレンダリングされる。

    Step to Reproduce
    1. create a point text on the document, type "ABCD" and change each glyph to a alternate glyph (in the attached sample, specify u+0041 nalt5, etc.).
    2. Apply any SVG filter to the created text.
    3. The alterrnate glyphs are rendered with fallback to the default glyphs.

    Expected result
    The SVG filter will be applied with the alternate glyphs.

    Actual result

  14. 2025 (29.0.1) is giving tons of errors on preview.

    I have a file with some simple multi-gradient appearance stacks that constantly throws two errors every time I load it, and every time I switch outline mode on and off. Also the document is marked as modified the instant I load it.

    Works fine on 2023. Dunno how it works on 2024, I never switched to that one. Constantly complains on 2025.

    This is happening in CPU preview mode, I would check if it's happening in GPU mode as well but I deleted 2025 before thinking about that detail.

    Uservoice isn't letting me upload this file so I've posted it…

  16. Appearance items loose focus when get an effect assigned

    When I pick a fill in Appearance panel and assign an effect to it, the item looses focus suddenly — take a look at the GIF attached.

    If my stack there is complex enough (and they often are), it’s hard to locate the fill/stroke I was working with.

    ...and surely Ai doesn’t allow to rename these to at least find them quicker — and here is the request about this: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/34309852

  18. Can't pick colors with eyedropper on groups

    The title... I can't pick colors with the eyedropper on grouped objects where the color is applied to the group. If I ungroup, the fill and stroke disappears from the object. This is so annoying.

  19. Applying 3D effects crashes Ai, with errors from Geometry3D module

    These constant bugs in every update are really infuriating.
    When applying 3D effects (e.g., extrude or inflate), Illustrator 2025 v29.6.1 on macOS 14.5 (M4 Pro, 24GB RAM) crashes immediately.

    Crash report shows repeated errors from Geometry3D module and abort() called in main thread.

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Create a shape (e.g., rectangle or text)
    2. Apply 3D > Extrude or Inflate
    3. Sometimes applying materials also causes crash
    4. Illustrator immediately crashes without saving

    macOS Version: macOS Sonoma 14.5
    Illustrator Version: 29.6.1
    Chip: M4 Pro
    RAM: 24GB
    Crash module: Geometry3D

  20. Incorrect Blend Mode Appearance When Opening Illustrator 2024 File in Illustrator 2025

    I’ve encountered a potential bug in Illustrator. When I open a file created in Illustrator 2024 (version 28.7.4) in Illustrator 2025 (version 29.2.1), the appearance applied to the text does not display correctly.

    For example, in the attached file, the text at the bottom changes to a completely different design when opened in Illustrator 2025, which is causing a significant problem.
