Sync with Adobe Draw
I am new to using Adobe Draw and sending the vectors direct to Illustrator.
Draw has a simple one click feature to send a vector to AI. Except that it doesn't work quite as it should. The project gets stuck in the cloud, I can see any drawing I create then send 'direct' in my Adobe.com assets > mobile creations. It doesn't push through to AI, which I have open while I'm working in Draw.
I have been through the support team, and have been advised the only solution is to send all my drawings through, then restart both devices,…

ExtendscriptToolkit is 32bit-only, OSX Catalina is 64bit-only
I use a script I wrote for an important business function. For the last couple OSX upgrades, it has been warning me that ExtendscriptToolkit is not compatible with future versions of the OS. Specifically, OSX Catalina, which has been seeded to developers, will only support 64bit applications, and ExtendscriptToolkit is a 32bit application. Is that going to be addressed before the OS is released?

Cannot export large files to .png format at 300dpi
I’m using the command: File > Export As > PNG
Use artboards: Not selected
Resolution: High (300dpi)
Ahti-Aliasing: None
Background Color: TransparentI have an immediate need to export Illustrator files of roughly 8000 px by 6500px to .png format at 300dpi. I tried doing this with a file containing a complicated drawing, but it fails and displays an error box saying:
The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error [!now]
I created a simple file containing a few filled rectangles and experimented, with the following results: (all set to export to .png at 300dpi with no anti aliasing)…

Art board freezes, then disappears
I use a Wacom to draw my art on Adobe Illustrator 2019 cc, 23.0.6 64 Bit. I haven't had any problems drawing, but today I am only able to draw a few items before the art board completely freezes and I can't draw anymore. HOWEVER, when looking at my layers, everything I draw shows up. I just can't see it on the actual art board. The things I was able to draw, I am unable to move or change. Then trying to fix it, the whole art board disappears, but it still says it there on the Layers tab...
Please…

Option + Enter (on keypad) doesn't work anymore to produce a copy
OS x 10.14.6
Illustrator 23.0.6
When using dialogue boxes for scale, rotate move etc, after inputting numbers i used to be able to hit option + enter (next to the keypad) and it would create a copy of whatever I element i was scaling, rotating, moving. This doesn't work anymore. nothing happens. I have to hit option + return for this to work. It used to work a few versions ago. Can you please change it back. it's super annoying inputting numbers on the keypad and not being able to hit the enter key next to the keypad to create…

Color palette overrides fill colors and color modes in Illustrator 2018
Hi, I am a design professor and most students in my class experienced a specific problem when we were doing an exercise to learn how to apply the correct color palettes to different logo files. Specifically, we created fictional identity designs as a means to learn how to create a production-ready bundle of files (a logo with versions in b&w, spot color (Pantone), 4-color process, and RGB). Almost 100% of my 18 students had their 4-color process file -- which was filled with CMYK colors upon designing, and should have stayed CMYK -- show up as being filled with RGB…

After unlink vector art from symbol, handles and points never appear again - CC 23.0.2
I see that this bug was supposedly fixed but it's back.
I made a vector shape and dragged it to the symbols palette.
Then I placed the symbol in my artboard, and unlinked the placed art from the symbol.
Now when the shape is selected, no handles or points are ever visible again - I can not select all or any handles or points with the direct selection tool, because they are gone. The shape can not be manipulated.
It does not matter if I cut and paste it, expand it, ungroup it, double click it, or paste it into…

Bounding box suddenly disappears using Selection Tool
Suddenly disappears, but when a select scale then select the "Selection Tool" again the Bounding box reappears. When it is gone, togglingthe quick key, has no effect though t changes the menu state for turning it on and off. Also, when it can't be seen, a small icon for the bounding box is in the corner, occasionally.
Sound familiar to anyone else?

Graphic Styles Panel Crashes Illustrator (macOS Movaje)
Illustrator CC 2019 on macOS Mojave becomes unusable after loading the "Graphic Styles" panel. After the panel loads, there's a brief beach ball followed by the "Not enough memory to process the appearance" error message. The menus then become "greyed out" and the only way to proceed is to force quit illustrator and restart.
On the surface I can avoid loading the "Graphic Styles" panel, but there are other panels that I need to load that only load with the "Graphic Styles" panel attached to them.
I've deleted the AI preferences and uninstalled/reinstalled Illustrator and the result is the same.

Crash in windows 10 64-bit when using trackpad to scroll in layers panel
I've crashed twice today, both times while scrolling the layers panel down using the track pad. Two fingers on the track pad and start scrolling and crash. All changes to open files get lost as there is no recovery files to open. It is a hard crash, no bug report screen pops up, the app just aborts.
