1. Repeat objects ignore Select > Inverse command

   Take a look at the GIF attached and the file.

   I select the magenta square and use Select > Inverse to select everything but the square.
   It select the circles, the black one and the white one (inside of Radial Repeat) — all correct.

   Now I try Select > Inverse one more time, expecting to get the opposite result, only the magenta square selected.
   But the Radial Repeat object stays selected.
   It must not.

   These applies to other repeat types as well.

3. 2026 converted RGB file to CMYK, won't go back

   Got a new computer, downloaded Illustrator vs 2026, and signed in to Illustrator. I opened a file, started working on it, and noticed all my colors in the color panel were CMYK. The overall color setting was still RGB in the title at the top, and under color settings. Not only was everything in the color panel CMYK, but all of the options to change that were greyed out. Somehow, opening up a 2025 file in 2026 corrupted my color setting at the panel level and wouldn't let me change them back. I haven't disassembled my old PC, so I pulled up my file in Illustrator 2025, and the colors were RGB at all levels. It was not corrupted on my old setup.

   I am not sure if the bug happened because I didn't upgrade my old Adobe Illustrator on my old computer, and then just started opening files in Adobe Illustrator 2026, so my files didn't get updated to the new software version, or what is happening. This is something that you need to look into, though.

   *I am giggling that I am the only one complaining about my files getting changed to CMYK instead of RGB?

   So I fixed this piece of artwork by creating a new RGB file and copying and pasting my artwork into that new file. No need for anyone to tell me how to fix the problem, but I shouldn't have to continue to copy and paste all my artwork from the old PC to new RGB files because ADOBE has a BUG! Bugs need to be fixed completely!

   Thanks Sj
   PS: If you don't have something nice, good, truthful, kind, and useful, then don't answer me. I deleted my last account on Adobe forums because I got attacked and told I wasn't good enough to be a designer because I asked a question on how to do something after a big update and change (I had just moved from a 2004 version to Creative Suite when it went to subscription, and things were different). If you are that kind of person, your opinion is none of my business, and I will actively work to get you banned if you choose violence. I am no longer a walk-away type of person.

4. Disabling "Show The Home Screen When No Documents Are Open" corrupts custom workspace

   When "Show The Home Screen When No Documents Are Open" in General Preferences is disabled, the next time Illustrator is run, my custom workspace is corrupted, for lack of a better word. The toolbar and all panels are missing, and the Control Panel has become floating.

5. Using Pen tool does auto switch to add or remove points when cursor is hoving over lines or anchors.

   I'm not sure if this is a new feature or not, but when using the regular pen tool, it usually displays the + or - symbol when it's over anchor points or on lines to indicate whether to add or remove. It doesn't do this now, and I have to manually switch between the 'Remove Point' or 'Add Point' version on the toolbar.

6. Saving a PDF with All Printer’s Marks only works twice

   Hello,
   I'm using version 30.0 on a PC.

   I need to save my files for printing as PDFs with crop marks. When I check the "All Printer’s Marks" option and save as a PDF, it works the first time, but the second time, and always on the third, I get an error message. This error message says, "This document was saved successfully, but an error occurred after saving. Close and then reopen the document."
   I then have to close Illustrator and reopen everything, giving me two opportunities to save new PDF documents with print marks. Then, on the third document, the same thing happens again; I have to close Illustrator, and so on.

   This is a very annoying problem for my work. Am I the only one experiencing this? I didn't have this problem in previous versions. It must be a bug.

   Thank you for your help.

7. Offset Path and Aligned Strokes get rendered partially with a specific handle configuration

   When a curved segment of a path has diverging handles that are oriented in different quadrants across the X axis (this is my guess), like it’s shown in the attached document and the GIF, Illustrator renders the result only up to the horizontal tangents of the path. Same thing happens if you try to toggle Align Stroke options (they seem to use the Offset math).

   Adding and extra point on the rendered segment helps, but it’s not really a solution.
   The bug is quite old and perhaps it’s time to get it fixed?

8. Gradient panel is stuck

   When I open the colors, it works fine, but if I click on the gradient, the panel moves to the top of the screen, where I am unable to move it or even change it back to a solid color.

10. All options within Window > Type are greyed out when 'Enable Wacom' option is enabled

    Running Illustrator 2026 (version 30.0) on a M4 Pro Mac Mini. Access to all Type options are greyed out (accessed via Window > Type). I noticed that, in the preferences, under Devices, there was an 'Enable Wacom' option, which was checked. (I don't have a Wacom tablet, though I do have an XP-Pen drawing display, though it was not plugged in, and all drivers and extensions were disabled, and I've only used it with Illustrator 2025.) However, I unchecked the option, restarted Illustrator, and all text options were available again.

    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    This issue has been fixed in the latest Beta version, 30.8.28.

    Please check to see if the issue has been resolved.

12. The Default File Location option (local or cloud) is missing in Preferences > File Handling

    Whenever we install Illustrator anew and try to save a document for the first time, we are given a choice — to save into Cloud or save locally. The default choices is Cloud and 'Don’t show again is checked) — Adobe actively wants users to use their system, I get it. However, if one makes a mistake and wants to alter this choice later — they can’t do it anymore.

    At some point we had this option exposed in Preferences > File Handling, but later it started to randomly disappear for users, with the same build used. The support can offer nothing but to reset Preferences, but it never helps to make it appear back. The blank spot is there, but the option is gone.

    We, however, can toggle it with a script, with a single line:
    app.preferences.setBooleanPreference ("AdobeSaveAsCloudDocumentPreference",false);

    or go to the 'Adobe Illustrator Prefs' file and set this key to zero:
    /AdobeSaveAsCloudDocumentPreference 0

    So the option exists, it just doesn’t get exposed.
    I personally think it’s a trap. I think Adobe lures users to use the Cloud. I think this perfectly fits the 'Adobe uses shady practices' and whatever the team can say in response (except for 'It is now fixed' with the users proving it is) I will treat as fueling these practices.

    Here’s a discussion at forums about this:
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/turning-off-save-to-cloud-as-default/td-p/13076982

13. Spell check error - changes language to Bulgarian

    Spell Check starts in English for the first few then always changes to Bulgarian! This renders spell check absolutely useless, unless I happen to type in Bulgarian... which I haven't had the need to so far.

    All - if you are still running into this issue with latest Illustrator version v30.2.1, please make a comment here.

14. Super slow with multiple art boards

    I have 8 artboards with quite simple (ai-generated) icon style drawings. And now Illustrator is extremely slow. Every edit takes seconds. I already ungrouped the art from the ai-variations, so it's just ordinary Illustrator artwork, but still a lot of lag.

    Pasting the contents on one big new document with one artboard restores the editing speed, so my conclusion is that Illustrator gets slow when using multiple artboards. Hopefully a solution is found, since dartboard can be handy for some projects.

18. Live Shape center in the bounding box prevents Snap to Point from working

    As reported here — https://www.reddit.com/r/AdobeIllustrator/comments/1p6pyau/what_do_i_not_understand_about_snap_to_point/ — modern Illustrator is having problems when dragging live shapes by the center, expecting this center to snap as a point to another points.

    Live shapes like start, ellipses, rectangles, now have the additional widget controls displayed over the bounding box — to alter the shape on canvas. Well, this fat dot in the middle seems to obstruct the REAL center point shapes get when created.

    That’s why disabling the bounding box helps — the fat dot vanishes with it, exposing the real center point (Attributes panel control it being on or off).
    That’s why using the Direct Selection tool helps — the bounding box appears only when a shape tool or Selection tool are used.
    That’s why expanding the shape helps (either with Object > Shape > Expand Shape, or something like Pathfinder > Add — but it’d require for center to be reenabled) — the live shape widget shows up only for live shapes.

    This widget wasn’t a thing in older versions, and there was a time it worked fine after live shapes were introduced, until the fat dot happened. Please make it work. Today, even with enabled Smart Guides Ai might (within a tolerance) display the 'center' when you hover over the fat dot obstructing the center, but would not register it as one when you start dragging. Shame!

20. Recent colors become None when Global or Spot Colors are used

    Some Recent Colors are displayed as the None Swatch when Spot or Global colors have been added to the Recent Colors.
    Turn on in the Edit > Color Settings all checkboxes for warnings about Mismatches or Missing profiles.
    The default is unchecked. When they are unchecked, you will get no warning when opening a file with Global (or Spot) Colors in the Recent Colors and the file just opens without showing the problem.
    When you have turned the warning checkboxes On in the Color Settings and have Quit Illustrator after adding the Global or Spot Colors in the Recent Colors, you get a warning about a Missing Profile (which is not true) when you create or open a file while the Global (or Spot) Colors are still in the Recent Colors (they are available across documents). If you click OK the file opens, just as it would with the warnings off. The warning will not show again during the current session. But if you click Cancel (as many times as the number of Global/Spot Colors that you have in your Recent Colors). The file will open with the recent Global/Spot Colors converted to None.
