  1. Abnormal selection after executing an action in a script.

    According to the person in the know, this has been occurring since version 25.4; it was normal in 25.2.x.
    When an action to duplicate an object is created and executed by specifying the action in the script function doScript(), the execution completes with the duplicated object and the original object selected at the same time.

    Although it is logical to perform all processing in scripts, there are situations where it is unavoidable in the process.
    In addition, this is clearly an abnormal situation.
    We would like to see an improvement.

  2. グループ解除のエラー

    データ作成中にグループ化したデザインをグループ解除を行なっても複数回行わないと解除されなくなっております。以前はデザイン全体を囲わなくてもグループ化されたデータを選択でも解除が1度でできております。1度で解錠できるように設定を見直していただきたい

  3. Make it possible again to move Text by its Anchor Point

    When Text is baseline shifted, it is no longer possible to move the Text Object by grabbing its Anchor Point, unfortunately.

    Please repair that.

  4. Text selection issue with threaded text frames

    Trying to select text in the second column of a threaded text frame is impossible. The selection always jumps to select the text in the previous text frame. In the video example I uploaded - I'm simply trying to select just the top paragraph in the middle column - but it keeps highlighting the text in the linked text frame on the left column. I can never just select the top 3 lines in the middle column.

  8. Fail to export. Transparency: Other options?

    Illustrator fails to export artwork correctly when "Other Options" showing under Opacity in Appearance palette. This artwork was created via legacy 3d extrude. It was also 'pathfindered' and 'eyedroppered,' the latter with Appearance checked.

    Attaching screenshots showing state of palettes and result in legacy Save for Web dialog. Same result in Export for Screens. Also attaching source file.

  9. SVG embedded images not showing up in 2023 version

    I am having an issue with reopening an already-saved .svg file, with an embedded image in the file. The image is not showing up when I re-open it in Illustrator 2023. This has me thinking that I did not save the svg correctly - choosing for the image within the svg to be embedded - when I go to File<Save As<SVG. But when I go to check the same file in Illustrator 2022 or in Inkscape, the embedded image is in fact there.
    So this makes me think this is an Illustrator 2023 bug?

  11. The "Placement options" in the document have been replaced with the computer's final settings

    I placed an 'img-1.ai' picture in Document-A with the placement option set to Bounding Box.
    After saving and closing it, I created a new document, Document-B.
    In Document-B, I placed the 'img-2.ai' picture with the placement option set to Bleed.
    After saving and closing Document-B, I reopened Document-A.
    The placement option for 'img-1.ai' had changed to Bleed.

    Why does the placement option not follow the document but instead follows the last-used setting?
    If I send the document to the client, they will see the incorrect layout.

    2)環境設定リセットを行うも変化なし
    3)Mac本体再起動しても変化なし
    4)Illustrator字体再起動しても変化なし

  13. Deleting points/segments causes Illustrator to crash.

    Every time I start deleting segments, when I get to the last point and try to delete - my illustrator always freezes and then crashes after minutes of waiting for it to respond again.

  15. Illustrator suddenly switching to CPU preview, GPU preview greyed out

    My little research has shown that the preview mode changes when zooming if the cmyk document contains cmyk images. In a cmyk document with rgb images or an rgb document with rgb/cmyk images, there is no gpu to cpu preview switching when zooming. To reproduce the bug, the document must include multiple images in order to impact performance during scaling. My system: i5 8400, 32 Gb, GTX1650 with latest Studio Driver installed, Asus PA329C, windows 11 Build 22621.1265, Illustrator 27.3.1 Here's what it looks like on my system.

    (1)塗りと線の色指定をともに「なし」の状態にする。

  19. Artboards are deleted after I close the program

    I was working on a project with multiple artboards. I closed and reopened the program and all the artboards except the second one were deleted and the second artboard became "Artboard 1".
    I tried it multiple times and this happens everytime.

    I'm on windows and version 27.9
