Draw Inside Object problems
I am working on an Apple Mac OS Sierra Version 10.12.6.
In Illustrator I can't use the draw inside objects, Draw Normal and Draw Behind are enabled, not Draw Inside?

Delay when opening/placing/looking for files.
illustrator and indesign and photoshop all had little or no delay when 'exiting' the software to find/open/place/import a file. Now there's significant seconds added whenever I do anything, even selecting fonts causes seconds of delay when they used to show up instantaneously. just started Monday with Mojave 10.14.1 update

Text edits have no undo, do not trigger file as updated
When editing a block of text. Back delete key does not work and forward delete key deletes from start of block instead of cursor/insertion point. Text has to be highlighted to be deleted. Undo for deleted text is unavailable. Document does not indicate any changes and can be closed without a save dialog and thus losing edits.

Interacting with properties panel can make app require force close
MacOS 10.14.1
Illustrator 23.0.1Clicking on options in the 'Properties' palette, then clicking outside the resulting dialog can make the app become mostly unusable:
- Menus are greyed out
- any menu function can't be done, including save and quit
1 voteHi David,
This happens, when you open some menu while a panel pop-up is still open. Since you had the fill popup open from properties panel, when you clicked on menu, so its grayed out.
You need to close the popup first to open the menu. -
Illustrator groups unintended objects, you can't ungroup unless you click on a certain object.
I've had this issue for years with various versions of Illustrator. Occasionally when grouping and ungrouping objects Illustrator will get stuck on a grouped object and then subsequently clicked objects with that object.
It's annoying because it creates unwanted group handles for the subsequent object you want to click or transform.
Over the years I've found that the only way to "ungroup" the unwanted group is trying to find and select one of the objects that is "causing" the unwanted grouping for lack of a better explanation.
Again, this is not a new bug. It's something that I've been dealing…

Default Template Folder
Version 23.0 no longer opens template files from the default "Cool Extras" folder. Instead it navigates to the last folder saved. Please revert this back as it is a huge waste of time creating new documents now.
This also occurs for scripts, but I use less frequently and have dealt with it. Unacceptable for template files however.

Linked image used in opacity mask not compressing
I believe this is a new issue with a recent update. I've never had this issue before.
The attached pdf file should be renamed to an ai file. For some reason I am not allowed to attach an ai file. That doesn't make sense to me as this is a bug report platform for ai.
If I create a document that has a linked image used in an opacity mask, illustrator is not compressing the image when I save it. I'm seeing a file end up being, for example, around 8MB when it should be around 600KB. I am downsampling…

Artboard Not Visible when in a Tab
Mac Pro 2015 with OSX Mojave
When opening a PDF the file naturally attaches itself to a new tab on the illustrator workspace but the entire artboard is missing. Only when you pull the tab free to make an individual window are you then able to see the illustration contents.

gradient locks to a color stop in the color tab. If I want to use a solid fill on the color tab it only allows me to change the color stop.
gradient locks to a color stop in the color tab. If I want to use a solid fill, on the color tab it only allows me to change the color stop. I cannot do anything to escape out of the gradient stop. I have to remove the gradient first then choose a color. Older versions allowed me to just click on the color fill box and I can toggle between gradient stop and object fill.

Japanese version: Sidebar properties get clipped
The values get clipped out and it's difficult to insert values....
I think this is possibly because of poor localisation for Japanese UI as the Japanese text is larger and thus causes the clipping....
This has happened on many occasions but as a sample I included an image of the settings of corner roundness of an object.
I'm not sure if this happens on any other language UI's as I've only been using the Japanese version.

Blob tool won't change size
When I use the blob tool it won't change size from 1 pt. No matter if I change the size. It is very frustrating to use so I can do college homework.
This issue is on both my Acer laptop with my Huion tablet and on my Surface Pro 3. I reinstalled the app on my laptop and didn't fix the issue.
1 voteResolved (Comments Open) · AdminIllustrator Engineering (Software Engineer, Adobe Illustrator) respondedHi,
Please press the enter key while using BLOB brush (when Blob Brush Tool is selected) and set the size to 1 pt. in the Blob Brush Tool Options dialog.
Hope this helps.
With Best Regards,
