   If you still have this problem happening, please share a test file, the steps needed to get the behavior, and a video recording of it, with History panel opened in view, so the team can reproduce the issue on their side.

6. Drag and Drop from Photoshop Not Working

   Illustrator Version 28.3, Photoshop Version 25.5.1

   Attempting to drag and drop a layer from photoshop into illustrator and the object is not appearing in illustrator. I can usually do this with no issues. I've tried rasterizing and making the image a smart object but nothing seems to fix the bug. This has just been an issue within the past 2 days.

11. Bug: exporting SVG's via exportFile(fileObjSingle, ExportType.SVG, svgOptions). has completely changed since 28.4

    (macOS & Windows, latest versions) Beginning with Illustrator 28.4, SVG files exported via Javascript are in a very different format.

    The following examples are exported with:

    doc.exportFile(fileObjSingle, ExportType.SVG, svgOptions);

    The SVG option for the format of the SVG is STYLEELEMENTS.

    See attached captures for the differences.

    There are many many changes:

    • the style definitions are handled differently
    • ID's now strip out characters like / or < instead of replacing them with entities
    • the original names are included via data-name tags
    • the comment from the 2nd line is now gone
    • clipping paths are handled differently

    I have built a complex program over many years that depends on special characters in the SVG ID's, and it is now completely broken.

    Does anyone know how to get back the previous SVG export format?

    Does anyone know if this is a bug that will be fixed?

12. Add an option to constrain Illustrator to only move the selected object

    In Adobe Illustrator, it's frustrating that when I select an object and attempt to move it, the software sometimes selects and moves a different nearby object instead—even though I clicked precisely on the one I had already selected.

    I would like an option to constrain Illustrator to always operate on the currently selected object, ignoring nearby objects unless I explicitly reselect something else.

    This behavior would be similar to Photoshop's "Auto-Select Layer" toggle, where users can choose whether to transform the currently selected layer or automatically switch to a different one based on the click location.

    Such an option would save time and reduce frustration in workflows where precision is critical.

    Please consider implementing this feature to make Illustrator more user-friendly and intuitive.

13. [ExtendScript] Document.artboards wrongly returns artboards of active document

    1. MacOS 14.2.1
    2. Adobe Illustrator 28.0
    3. To reproduce:

    (a) open two documents with differently named artboards

    (b) run this script

    for (var i = 0; i < app.documents.length; i++) {
        for (var j = 0; j < app.documents[i].artboards.length; j++) {
            $.write(app.documents[i].name + ' artboard ' + j + ': ');
            $.writeln(app.documents[i].artboards[j].name);
        }
    }
    

    Expected result:

    demo1.ai artboard 0: ALPHA
    demo1.ai artboard 1: BRAVO
    demo2.ai artboard 0: CHARLIE
    demo2.ai artboard 1: DELTA

    Actual result:

    demo1.ai artboard 0: ALPHA
    demo1.ai artboard 1: BRAVO
    demo2.ai artboard 0: ALPHA
    demo2.ai artboard 1: BRAVO

    Note that Document "demo1.ai" is active. If I make demo2.ai active, I get this:

    demo2.ai artboard 0: CHARLIE
    demo2.ai artboard 1: DELTA
    demo1.ai artboard 0: CHARLIE
    demo1.ai artboard 1: DELTA

14. Any document created using Film & Video document profile gets a second 14400×14400 artboard

    When creating a new document in the HDV/HDTV 1080 or other Film and Video-related workspaces, the artboard is initially created with the correct size. However, as soon as you add any object to this workspace outside of the borders of the artboard, a new artboard is automatically generated, and it is massive. This forces the user to manually remove the second artboard, which is unnecessary.

    The second artboard is not a bug, but a specifically designed behavior for later import to AfterEffects. It gives AE enough room to avoid clipping of the layer content to the main artboard size (basically a dummy for a pasteboard).

    
    

    Here is a quote from The Adobe Illustrator WOW! Book (found here: https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/146842/huge-unwanted-artboard-created-by-default-in-adobe-illustrator-cc-2020):

    Тo create a composition to import into After Effects, use the Video & Film Document Profile (Film & Video in CC). This creates two artboards — one large artboard that serves as a "scratch" area for objects used later in AE, and one sized for your chosen video format.

16. Massive Lag Issue

    Every time I open Illustrator, it takes an enormously long time to load. It continues to lag when I'm in the file, working on it - every action requires a wait time, from moving an object to typing a word. This makes using illustrator a massive chore.

    This happens to all files, even ones that are very simple - at most maybe 10 individual elements (images and text.) I have the creative suite, so all things are up to date. This issue does not happen with Photoshop or InDesign, which run perfectly, so it's clearly not a memory issue or a problem on my end.

17. Ai Pen Tool keeps snapping to points

    The Pen Tool in 28.7.1 keeps snapping to points, even when View/Snap to Point is off, Smart Guides are off, and in Preferences Snap to Point is off.

    Very annoying. Would be nice when the tool itself had a switch to toggle snap / not snap while drawing. (like the Magnet in Premiere...)

19. Ghosting and image retention in UI panels of Illustrator & Photoshop with 5k Monitor

    Since Illustrator 29 and new Photoshop I suffer an annoying ghosting bug on my LG Ultra Fine Monitor with 5k (at an iMac Pro from 2017). It is only related to Adobe products related and does not appear in any other app!

    Even if the panels or windows are not in the foreground, while using e.g. a browser window for some time in front, there appears a ghosting in the tool panels from the window which is in the background of the UI panels, at the moment when switching back to Illustrator.

    This is really annoying.

    Switching Illustrator to any other app (but Photoshop) will instantly remove all ghosting effects in all other apps and programs. Only Adobe panels will suffer this bug.

    Please fix it!
