ドキュメントのグループの抜きを設定したドキュメントをPDFで書き出したものがオーバープリントプレビューの表示と異なる
macOS13.6.7/iMac27inch(Intel)
Illustrator ver.28.6再現手順
1. いくつかの図形を重ねて合成モードを乗算に設定したうえでグループ化しグループの抜きのチェックボックスを外す。
2. ドキュメントのグループの抜きを設定する。
3. PDF X4で保存する。
4. そのPDFをAcrobatで開く。
5. Illustrator上でのオーバープリントプレビューの表示と異なる。Actual result
PDFを書き出した状態とIllustrator上での表示が異なる。Expected Result
PDFの表示とIllustrator上での表示が同じになる。Illustrator上でのグループの構造の違いがIllustrator上のレンダリング結果とPDF書き出し結果で相違が生じています。1でのグループの抜きのチェックを外したグループではIllustrator上ではグループ内ので抜き処理を行わず合成モードの処理を行います。これがPDFを書き出した際にグループの抜きと解釈され、全てがノックアウトされた状態でPDFが作成されます。どちらが正しいかという事は難しいのですが、グループに設定されたノックアウトを拒否する設定をPDF書き出し時にも有効にするほうが表現の幅が拡がるように思います。

Artwork gets shifted when an artboard is resized with width and height constrained and Scale Artwork Constrained enabled
CC 2025 v29.0 introduces the long-awaited "Scale Artwork with Artboard" option. When we drag the transformation frame with the Artboard tool, the objects are scaled synchronously, and the position’s calculated properly.
However, when we start to enter the width or height of the artboard, with Constrain locked, the objects get shifted relative to the artboard after being scaled.
The problem has been confirmed on both MacOS and PC.10 votesFixed in Beta 29.1.0.93

Appearance items below get expanded / unfurled when anything changes in the panel
Assign many fills to a path using Appearance.
Do anything with anything in the panel: change a color, assign an effect, add another fill.Fills below the current one get unfurled.
These could be fills just below the current view of the panel, 'below the fold', as one of the attached GIFs show, or all the fills below the last unique one, as in the second GIF.
I’d test more, but the fact we can’t collapse all the items in the Appearance panel (which is possible with Opt/Alt in Layers!) makes me extremely irritated — so I made a request…

オブジェクトをバウンディングボックスで拡大縮小するときに、斜め拡大と縦横の伸縮拡大が逆になってしまう
使用環境
ソフトウェア: Adobe Illustrator 2025
バージョン: 29.0.1特定のファイルを使用している際に、選択ツールを使ったバウンディングボックスでの拡大縮小操作が正しく動作しない現象が発生しています。他のファイルでは正常に操作ができるものの、特定のファイルにおいてのみ、斜めの拡大縮小と縦横の拡大縮小が逆になってしまい、期待通りの変形ができません。
バグが起こった手順:
1. 特定のファイルを開く。
2. 選択ツールを使用してオブジェクトを選択し、バウンディングボックスの角または辺にカーソルを合わせて拡大縮小操作を行う。
3. 通常であれば、斜めの拡大縮小(角をドラッグ)と縦横の拡大縮小(辺をドラッグ)が正しく行われるはずですが、問題のファイルでは、角をドラッグしても縦横の拡大縮小に、辺をドラッグしても斜めの拡大縮小に変わってしまいます。
ソフトを終了して、環境設定を初期化して再起動することで、一時的に問題が解消されることがありました。
しかし、一定期間使用していると再び同じ現象が発生してしまいます。1 vote -

Can’t select an object under a locked object
I'd like to be able to work on an area that is under a locked layer.
Currently I can't select anything that is under it. Selection tools just want to select the object on top that it ain't allowed to select... Can't it ignore it? It is locked.Maybe there is a paramaeter somewhere about it, but I didn't find it so far.
Example of use : You have a reference image/object that you put on top with multiply or darken mode and some transparency.
You could say put it under your working layer and ask you working layer to…8 votesThis most probably happens because of the 'Select and Unlock objects on canvas' option being enabled in Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display section.
It allows to 'select' and unlock all or chosen objects directly on canvas. If you wish to have this option split into two — one for unlock widgets and one for having an ability to 'select' locked objects — please upvote a corresponding feature request here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48753221

Threaded text area box disappears after saving
MacOS Ventura 13.7
Illustrator 28.6 and newerWhen I convert a document to curves, save a copy, and then press Undo so I can have the text boxes editable again. As soon as I press Save after doing this, the second text frame in a thumbnail in Finder vanishes, while still existing in the document.
4 votesAccording to the team, this is expected to be fixed in the upcoming November Beta and Prerelease builds. Once it’s verified to be fixed, it will get pushed into the next main build.

線を細く設定した際の表示バグ
線の太さを0.001pxなどに設定した場合、設定は出来ているのに実際の線の表示位置と、選択できる線実体の位置にズレが生じます。
表示限界かとは思いますが、表示できないなら設定も出来なくすべきかと思います。3 votes -

Illustrator version 29.1.0
Windows 10.0.19045To replicate:
- Create group that contains a group

Eyedropper cursor blinks while held
If you pick Eyedropper tool and hold it to sample a color continuously — it blinks, jumps, tries to change into a default pointer arrow.
Take a look at the small GIF attached, or watch a video by Laura Coyle here: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/lauracoylecreative_adobeillustrator-color-activity-7274877800715583491-HkxBHappens on both Windows and Mac.
And so you know it can work better and some other succeed — compare it with the way Affinity Designer does it (the second GIF).6 votes -
What’s New screen pops up every time I close all documents
Illustrator wastes my time by making it necessary to close the annoying splash screen whenever I close a document. Really annoying. Please get rid of it or make it optional.

Pantone or other book colors in a CMYK document look fine in Overprint preview mode but get exported to an RGB images as dull
When we add a Pantone or a different book color into a CMYK document, we can see how it looks 'for real' when we enable Overprint mode — all fair.
Then we would need to share this image with a client, so we export an RGB image... and this image shows out vivid book color as a dull-and converted-to-CMYK-and-then-to-RGB color — which is not what we have in mind.
This is a bug, honestly, I think, but also a request — we need to be able to export images as we see them in Overprint Preview mode... Ai respect overprints…

Opacity set with an action does not match appearance of opacity set manually
When trying to select multiple objects with the same fill color and opacity, selecting one of them and under the Select menu choosing Same > Appearance will add all the same fill and opacity objects to the selection.
However, when creating an object via an action and setting the fill color and opacity to match the objects to be selected, Select > Same > Appearance returns no results.
Manually selecting multiple objects in addition to the object created with the action shows "Mixed appearances" in the Properties panel. Individually selecting each of the objects shows the same attributes. Selecting multiples…

Greek text now keep accents with All Caps and is not consistent with UPPERCASE result
This has to do with the new update where all files previously created using Greek language using CAPS now all have accents. Now every time we need to change the language to Greek for accents to disappear. I'm sure this will be an issue for greeks around the world.
