Export for Screens via ExtendScript is slow and appears to have stopped
Description:
When I run Export for Screens via ExtendScript, it slows down and looks frozen. The rainbow cursor will appear.It actually works, and will finish if I wait long enough. It seems to take about 10 times longer than running it manually from the GUI.
This is especially noticeable when exporting JPEGs. If the image to be exported is large to some extent, it will hardly progress after the progress bar reaches about 99%. CPU usage will be around 100%.
Example: When exporting 8 1700x1000px artboards at 300ppi, it takes 157.636 seconds (the weight of each JPEG is 2.9MB).…

Illustrator will automatically convert color codes of shapes and vectors when a document of different color profile is imported.
I've seen this issue where people complain about color codes in Ai changing automatically, this leads to brand color codes slight off for most projects. I've discovered this issue myself and apparently when profile mismatch warning box are not checked (i.e Ask when opening, Ask when pasting) Ai will automatically convert the colors without asking. If you import multiple images then the color will be way off after 10 images. This happens when Ai is in sRGB and the photos are either untagged or AdobeRGB or other than sRGB. If you checked the warning boxes Ai will prompt you what…

Text missing on .ai file when I preview it or bring it into Indesign
OS Catalina v. 10.15.7, Illustrator v. 25.4.1
Text is in the document (.ai file), but when I preview it or place it into InDesign it disappears. When I save it to a pdf from Illustrator it looks fine in preview, acrobat and InDesign. As a temporary fix I can place the pdf into Indesign, but that's not ideal.

Black Boxes appear and Unable to zoom past 1600% when GPU performance is turned off in Illustrator 25.3.1
Well, I updated illustrator today and have major viewing issues.
Black Boxes appear when selecting outlined text with the direct selection tool, when moving a shape, and in the upper left corner when viewing artboard. Everything disappears when zooming in more than 2400% in Preview mode and has a pixelated outline.

Clipping Mask gets rendered wrong
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)
Just recently install the macOS Monterey
Using the newest version of Illustrator 2022The clipping mask doesn't work after I zoom in or zoom out.
It shows what is inside the clipping mask with different shapes randomly every time just like the images below. I have to move around the image to get the original shape of the clipping mask.It works quite well in Illustrator 2018 actually.
But the Illustrator 2018 version seems can not be downloaded anymore.I think people should be allowed to download the older version which they found most…

Toggling Layer Visibility Causes Hang
Toggling layer visibility seems to be increasingly difficult for my latest release of the standard Illustrator build. I just tried a complete uninstall/reinstall, and the problem persists. Once I toggle layers on/off without any other active layer visible I get the Mac beach ball/spinning wheel. If I add a blank placeholder layer I have no issues toggling as shown below. This is the current release of Illustrator. I can share one of these files to see if it is setting related or cannot be reproduced, but I had this same issue on a much higher spec’d out PC than my…

Opacity mask editing mode is broken, changes made are not visible unless Clip / Invert option is selected
I am experiencing a very new issue with Illustrator: when I draw something upon an opacity mask, the effect is not shown in real time.
Never happened something similar before.
I'm trying different settings with CPU preview, and also the relevant flag in the preferences (Draw and modify in real time, under "Performance" tab, hte last line) but does not seem to affect.
This has been happening since the latest update.

Illustrator 25.4.1 Generating constant 105MB log files into com.adobe.dunamis folder and filling up hard drive
When I am working in Illustrator, my fan starts to run and Illustrator generates multiple log files per minute in the com.adobe.dunamis folder. Each log file is roughly 105MB and before I was able to pinpoint what was going on, it filled my hard drive with 750GB of log files. If I close Illustrator and reopen it, it stops for awhile but I haven't been able to pinpoint what triggers the start of the log file generation – it isn't consistently doing it, but it does occur multiple times per day.

Circular Text Rotation different on newest update.
Opening a file with perfectly centered text on a circle is now off center. Live rotating seems to make the text hop around the circle not conforming to the rotation.

Stroke thickness resets when adjusting gradient direction.
Combination of two Categories: Strokes and Gradients.
Evidence: https://youtu.be/_w8UG_fvm1I
Disclaimer regarding evidence: The canvas is rotated by 60 degrees, due to the project I am working on.When I adjust the gradient direction (by pressing G on my keyboard), pressing & dragging in the paint-group would reset the thickness of the strokes that are involved in the paint-group. Hence not allowing the thickness of the strokes to stay constant, hence disturbing the preview of gradient.

CC Library to Illustrator Swatch: Name Length Bug Creates Magenta Spot Color
When adding a Color Swatch to Illustrator from the CC Library:
If the CC Library item's name is over a certain number of characters, Illustrator cannot import the swatch correctly.
Instead, Illustrator imports the CC Library color as a Magenta Spot Color.
The only workaround currently is to shorten the CC Library item's name to match the maximum allowed characters for an Illustrator Swatch, and then import the color.
FIX: Allow more characters for Illustrator Swatch names to be compatible with with CC Library character length for items.
