When importing PSD files with layers into AI, if you 'outline', masks get deleted and transparency made 100%
When importing PSD files containing smart objects into AI, the masks get deleted and opacity reverts to 100% when you create outlines (and it is really dangerous cos I only export to AI as a last step before i print, so this can be easy to miss!!!!).
You can rasterize smart objects before exporting them as a work around, but that's not a great solution really, and means you are best creating a copy of the layer if you don't want to lose fidelity.

Export resolution
There is an inconsistency between illustrator and the rest of the world (Photoshop / Bridge / Finder) regarding export resolutions.
When one exports a 100px board on Ai set at 300ppi the file info shows 422 x 422 i.e. 100 * 300 / 72 on Ps an export will show as 100 X 100 which makes sense and that’s how other programs view it.4 votes -
Ofset path bug in 24.1 version - horrible metric precision...
Problem with dimensions after using offset path. Just look - if you have square 100 x 100 mm, and want to make -4 mm offset path - new square is not 92 x 92mm, but... 92.0001 x 92.0001. This is nightmare. See attached. Adobe, I hope this bug will be fixed?

Alignement of neighboring objects
Hi, when I used to move my objects on artboard, there used to be lanes and alignments automatically showing me when two objects on the artboard are in alignment with a green line. However, I can't see that feature anymore, it just happened since yesterday. very frustrating. Is this a bug, or is this due to some settings issue?
1 voteIn case someone can’t see these, check these:
1. Disable Snap to Grid
2. Enable Smart Guides
3. Make sure you have Spacing Guides option turned on in Preferences > Smart Guides

Editing Pattern Swatch + Saving = Crash (unsaved, unrecovered)
After creating a new pattern swatch with about a dozen objects, I double click the swatch to change the pattern settings. Either of the following scenarios cause Illustrator to crash EVERY TIME, using ANY of the last 3 versions of Illustrator:
— hitting Command+S to exit pattern editor while saving
— double clicking to exit, and then hitting Command+S at any point afterwardsTLDR; hitting Command+S anytime AFTER editing a pattern swatch is crashing Illustrator
I've replicated this issue about 2 dozen times now across all 3 most recent builds of Illustrator available through CC.
I haven't yet tried saving…5 votes -

Refresh problems in Trim View - Illustrator 24.0
I'm not sure this is exclusive to GPU, but in Trim View sometimes when working with content, it stops refreshing properly and causing anomalies on screen
14 votesI am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 27.3.1 which is available worldwide now.
Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.
You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html
Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

Saving a file should not highlight the extension
When saving (copy, exporting, etc), the save box highlights the extension. This should not happen. Soon as you choose a different format, the extension is no longer highlighted (which is good and how it should be). The extension should not be highlighted. This Illustrator bug happened after the Mac Catalina update.

Clicking "Add to Dictionary" on the right-click context menu for spell check does not update red underline...
When adding a word to the spell-check dictionary using the right-click context menu, the underline remains under the word. Shouldn't that get removed after adding the word to the dictionary? It does not get removed from other instances of the word in the document either.

When a selection contains Dashed Lines with different Dash lengths, but equal Gaps, the Gaps can not be edited together.
Ai copies the entered Gap value to the Dash size.

Free Transform tool and bounding box don't work with guides
Sometimes you want to scale a guide by dragging.
But bounding box doesn't show up when guide is selected and Free Transform tool stays in forever 'turn' mode.Don't you say me it is as intended. Just don't.

Snap To Grid not aligns with grid
AI version 24.2.1
OS Catalina 10.15.5
When Snap to Grid is selected, the points that the pen and shape tools snap to are not on the grid. They are slightly off. It is impossible to get points exactly on the grid. I've attached a file that shows where points snap to. These shapes were drawn with Snap to Grid on.

No Rotate arrow for shapes
When creating shapes with the shape tool, the rotate arrow no longer shows up. If I click in the area where the rotate arrow would normally be, the shape will rotate and the rotate arrow then appears. Any other object other that shapes work as usual when rotating. I end up scaling objects trying to guess where the rotate arrow would be.
