Expanding an Inside / Outside stroke creates barely open paths
- Create a rectangle
- Apply a thick stroke to it and change its alignment to Inside or Outside
- Expand Appearance for the shape
- Deselect the shape
- Grab Direct selection and carefully move the corner points at the top right, for both paths
It turns out Illustrator doesn’t keep these tidy! One is cut open, another has a doubled point! It leads to a problems later, when we try, e.g. to make corners rounded, or apply effects.
A current workaround is to apply Add (as Pathfinder operation or an effect) to the stroke, separately form the fill... and it’s taxing for memory,…

Issue while saving a file in Adobe Illustrator 2025
I’m facing an issue while trying to save my Adobe Illustrator design file on my Mac. I can work normally, but when I try to save the file, I’m unable to rename it. The save screen freezes, and the “Save” button becomes unresponsive. The only button I can click is “Cancel.”

Installed Fonts Do Not Appear After Update to v28.6
Running Windows 11 and Illustrator v 28.6. After updating Illustrator to v28.6 - when opening files created on this same PC, certain fonts do not appear in the Type menu, and a warning will be issued saying there are missing fonts (Helvetica Bold, in this particular case). Tried installing fonts in Adobe Fonts folder in Program Files, as suggested elsewhere, with no luck. The file in the attached image was created using this very system just a couple of weeks ago, now unable to edit.

Mixed stroke colors become white when changing fills using CMYK spectrum in an RGB document
There is a way to make objects loose their stroke colors in specific conditions.
1. Create an RGB document
2. Create two shapes
3. Make them have same fill color, but different stroke colors
4. Select both
5. In Control panel Shift+click the arrow button next to the fill chip, to call the alternate UI with sliders and spectrum instead of Swatches view
6. In this dropdown panel’s menu pick CMYKStrokes become white.
This does not happen if the color mode in this panel is left RGB or HSB.

ADOBE: FOR GOD'S SAKE WILL YOU TRANSFER CUSTOM SETTINGS AFTER AN UPDATE ALREADY
ADOBE IT IS 2024.
FOR GOD'S SAKE -- AND THIS IS ALL CAPS BECAUSE I'M YELLING -- ADD THE FOLLOWING CODE TO ALL ILLUSTRATOR UPDATES:
Copy <Old Custom Workspace AND Keyboard Settings> to <New Version>
Okay? It can't be that friggin' complicated. I'm trying to write a PowerShell VBA to do it, and I'm not a coder.
I AM SICK AND TIRED OF HAVING TO MANUALLY GO IN AND TRY AND FIGURE OUT WHERE ALL MY CUSTOM SETTINGS ARE LOCATED AND THEN MANUALLY COPYING THEM TO THE UPDATED FOLDER.
This might be too much for UX, but golly gee gosheroonies,…

Pressing Tab to Show All Palettes focuses a random third-party extension’s input on Windows
Reported by Enisio:
I use the Tab key a lot to hide/show panels, to instantly clear the panel clutter on the screen.
Pressing Tab activates RANDOM extension.This is bad, because I work with shortcut keys: T is for writingS for Scale, R for rotation, etc.
When an extension gets focused, I can’t call the tool I need and type something in the extension panel instead.Same thing with all the extensions below. I think all extensions behave this way. Has anyone ever paid attention?

Flickering Pasteboard with GPU Preview
This is an ongoing, intermittent issue with Illustrator on Mac. It predates the M-series chips in my memory. The issue is that when the GPU preview is on the pasteboard starts to flicker (see attached). This is not tied to a specific action or effect in my experience, but happens randomly. Suggestions are to turn off GPU preview (not terribly helpful) or turn it off/on which sometimes works, or restart which sometimes works. Can you PLEASE figure out why this happens (has been happening for years!) and fix it.

データのクラッシュ
作業をしていると突然ソフトが落ちます。ほぼ毎日クラッシュが発生している状況で、こまめに保存して対応しております。
復元を行なってもほとんど復元されないため全く作業が進みません。macのデータ容量に関しても全く問題はなく、イラストレーターで開いているファイルが1つの時でもクラッシュが発生します。作業中において特定のアクションでクラッシュするわけではなく様々な場面で急に落ちます。
原因がわからないため非常に困っています。1 vote -

Flickering colors and images when moving mouse while in GPU mode
The screen flickers when you move the cursor (it sucks!).
When you switch to CPU it stops, but you lose the animated zoom which is a nice feature.

カラーウィンドウの改善
以前からカラーの数値入力はTabキーを使用して移動していました。
2024年版は#が追加され、そこから更にTabキーを押すと上に移動せず全てのタブが閉じてしまいます。
タブを閉じずに上の入力に戻るよう改善をお願いいたします。2 votes
