  1. Scrubby Zoom stopped working

    My Scrubby Zoom suddenly stopped working. It worked this morning and after it wouldn't work at all.
    It's activated in my GPU Performance under Animated Zoom.
    I'm NOT in Pixel Preview or in Traced Preview.
    I have a 2023 Macbook Pro M2 Max Sonoma 14.6.1
    Adobe Illustrator 28.7.1
    Can someone help me?
    Thank you :)

  2. 「連結」視窗中,選取「多個連結」並按「重新連結」鈕之後,圖片未更新

    此次是要更新.ai檔內所有相同圖片的解析度,
    因此於「連結」視窗,「多選圖片」並按「重新連結」。

    然而,先於photoshop調完解析度後,
    以下兩種方式都 無法反映 更新後的解析度:

    1) photoshop內變更完檔案,ai自動跳出「是否更新連結?」視窗,點確認後、跑圖,圖片還是維持舊連結檔狀態

    2)「連結」視窗中,選取「多個連結」並按「重新連結」鈕之後,跑圖,圖片還是維持舊連結檔狀態

    最後用一個方法可以 正確更新 連結圖檔:

    3) 於「連結」視窗點擊「單獨圖片」,重新連結、跑圖後是正確更新的連結檔解析度;但這等於需要一張一張點擊

  3. 画像トレースパネルでカラーモードをモノクロに設定するとカラーを透過のカラーピッカーが使えない

    macOS13.6.7
    Illustrator 28.6

    問題が発生したときに実行していた手順
    1. 画像を配置し、選択した状態で「画像トレース」パネルを開く。
    2. プレビューをチェックしカラーモードをグレースケールに設定する。
    3. 詳細を展開しオプションの「カラーを透過」のチェックボックスをチェックする。
    4. カラーを透過がアクティブになっているにも関わらずカラーピッカーが選択できない。

    想定していた結果
    他のカラーモードのようにカラーピッカーで透過色を選択できる。

    実際の結果
    カラーピッカーで透過色を選択できない。デフォルトでは白が透過色となっているためカラーを変更していない場合にチェックボックスをチェックした場合は白が透過されるが、他のカラーモードで透過色を選択した上でカラーモードをグレースケールに変更した場合、 透過色が以前のモードのまま保持されるため透過される部分がなくなる。

  5. Inconsistent Print Results with Intertwine Tool

    The Intertwine tool does not appear to have consistent results from screen to print. A number of images in which I used the tool appear perfectly fine on screen, and even when exported to different file types (such as jpg), but when they are printed directly from their native AI file, the intertwined areas create graphical abnormalities. I've provided one such example below. The right shows the Intertwine tool failing to show the latch plate in between the hook's base and the hook's tip. In the left image, I've corrected this using a transparency mask instead. Please investigate and fix.

  6. Calligraphic brush renders improperly if Roundness is less than 10%

    Calligraphic flat brush renders improperly (brush tip is S-shaped) when roundness is less than 10%. Was trying to do calligraphy with 5% flat tip in Illustrator when I noticed this problem, that creates a lot of cleanup. See images.

  7. Default line stroke color needs to be black and no fill for line segment tool, it keeps reverting back to no fill/no stroke color

    This has been going on for a very long time so I'm sure many others have seen this by now. I do A LOT of work using the line segment tool. Nearly 50% of the time I am using it, the stroke color or fill selections change on the tool. It needs to be set on default with no fill, black stroke color, with either .5 or 1 pixel (should be selectable in settings). Please for the love of anything... fix this silly problem.

  9. The menu does not respond well right after Illustrator launches

    en_US

    Immediately after starting Illustrator, the menu does not respond to clicks and only works once every two times. Also, the phenomenon occurs that opening a new document does not show up the first time. Focusing on another application and refocusing on Illustrator fixes the problem.

    While investigating the cause, it seems to be triggered by the presence of an invalid plugin or its warning screen. Without it, it worked fine.

    Steps to reproduce

    1. Put the invalid plugin into Illustrator's plugin folder
    2. Start Illustrator
    3. Click the File menu

    Expected result

    The File menu will open.

    Actual result

    Nothing happens. A…

  10. Round Corners effect works wrong with curved paths

    The native Round Corners effect (not the corner widget!) can work well only with all-straight segments.
    It doesn’t round anything for points connecting straight and curved segments, straightens up curved segments, and hardly fit rounded corners within original paths.

    This is embarrassing. Fix it!

  11. Random delay when running script via command line

    When you run a script via the command line, sometimes there is a pause between launch and execution. The duration of this pause is always different.

    It would be nice if there was no pause at all.

  12. Placing an SVG file with View->Snap to Pixel enabled distorts the image

    If I place an SVG file with View->Snap to Pixel enabled, some of the coordinates are displaced. See uploaded example, produced using version 28.3 (64-bit) on Windows 11. Unfortunately, the uservoice website won't let me upload a sample file.

  14. Illustrator freezes when selecting links & switching documents with placed images

    When working on a file that has a few placed images, Illustrator freezes for about 45 seconds when selecting different links in the links panel. This also happens when switching between open documents with placed images. To recreate the problem, I reset the preferences on the latest version of Illustrator, opened 2 files with lots of placed images, then selected different images and switched between the two open documents. Sure enough after a couple of minutes Illustrator started freezing giving me the beachball for about 45 seconds. This bug has only started happening in version 28. I reverted to version…

  15. Arbeitsbereich mit zwei Monitoren

    1. Windows 11 und Illustrator 29
    2. Ich arbeite mit zwei Monitoren, auf dem rechten sind die Werkzeugleisten abgelegt. Diese Konfiguration habe ich als Arbeitsbereich abgespeichert. (Screenshot 1)
    3. Der Fehler tritt auf, wenn ich die Werkzeugleisten mit der Tastenkombination STRG-T aus- und wieder einblende. Die Werkzeugleisten erscheinen dann auf dem linken Hauptfenster (Screenshot 2) und ich muss den Arbeitsbereich zurücksetzen.

  17. Unwanted Artwork when placing a CC Library asset and when exporting as SVG

    I remember voting and commenting on a UV report mentioning this with CC libraries, but cannot find it anymore.
    Lately there have been 2 forum posts mentioning unexpected artwork added to an SVG export.
    I suspect that the New Document Profile that they use contains the artwork, at least I can replicate that behaviour, but I have not seen that confirmed by the posters.
    Add artwork to a new document profile and it will appear on assets export to SVG and when alt dragged from a CC Library.

    A test file is needed along with full specs of your system, including GPU model and its driver’s version.

  19. Action with Image Trace does not record preset selection

    When creating an action with the Image Trace function, I am only able to utilize the default image trace settings when batching.

    While creating the action, loading custom parameters for the image trace function does not appear to be recorded in the action. When attempting to batch multiple files, the image trace uses the default black and white setting.

    My work around is the edit the trace parameters found in /collection7 in the vector_parameters.json found in the user folder. This is hardly an ideal workflow.

    Please have the action of loading the preset recorded in the action, so this workflow…
