Drag and drop from Photoshop changes Document Color Profile
Dragging an image from Photoshop with a different profile than the Illustrator Document Color Profile into an Illustrator document will change the color profile of the document into that of the image.
No warnings given even if the Color Settings are set up to warn.

Illustrator Window hopping around constantly - unusable
A lot of times when I use any illustrator function, like switching to layers, switching panes, or choosing any tool - the window just jumps away.
What the heck is that? It makes it unusable because my window just jumps around on the screen?

Generative Pop-ups causing file open click issues in MacOS Ventura
The popups that push the generative AI features (which should be permantally dismissable, but that's another issue) cause a bug in the file open... menu. If the popup remains open, and you click File > Open... the file dialog opens, but you cannot click on any files. Closing Illustrator and re-opening will fix the issue.

Can't copy paste between tabs using the keyboard shortcut
I've found lately that copy pasting content from one open document to another doesn't work when using the Ctrl-V shortcut. Manually selecting Edit->Paste from the menu seems to work as a workaround.
I'm using Illustrator 28.7.1 64-bit on Windows 10 21H2

All symbol instances reset after in-place editing the master instance
Ai 2023 (27.7 it says in the info), MacBook Pro, MacOS Ventura (13.3.1 (a)). When I enter an in-place symbol editing mode, and, still in that mode, enter another in-place editing mode (so there are two nested symbol editing modes), and, delete some path in the nested symbol, all instances of that symbol get reset, and work (in our case a lot of work) is lost.
When I first exit the initial symbol editing mode, and then enter the symbol editing mode for the other symbol (thus avoiding the nesting of editing modes), the instances don't reset.

An object with a freeform gradient fill makes the coloring control in the tool panel switched to None
In the tool panel we have three indicator buttons, which show the current type of fill/stroke for the selection — Fill, Gradient, None.
Illustrator switches it to None, when an object with a freeform gradient fill is selected.I can understand why it probably happens. Since freeform gradients are not technically gradients, and using this mode converts an object into a dynamic container for generating a triangular mesh, it makes sense for Illustrator to not display the proper indicator here — the container has no fill... but it makes no sense for a user. It is you who decided it’s…

When Illustrating sometimes am in need of an assets that create a look, so I tried prompting glasses and 9/10 am getting results that are to jaggy and not usable.. I ended drawing them at the end.
I tried pushing slider to more/less details and did not got expected results2 votes -

Type on path tool bug
After reopening an Illustrator document containing multiple circle paths with type on them the text is no longer on their paths but rather scattered all over and beyond the artboard. Please see the attachments.
When you try to fix the scattered texts by clicking on the path with the type to path tool it will indicate the text was created in a different version of Illustrator (which is not the case) prompting you to click ok. This will have the text look as it should again. However if you then save and re-open the file the texts will be scattered…

Image trace limited palette no longer works in AI 27.1
Image trace does not use a limited palette when this option is specified in the tracing options.
Steps:
- Place photographic or other image with many colours
- Choose any of the limited colour presets (16 in this example) and trace
Expected result: Trace uses the specified number of colours
Actual result: Trace acts as if 'Automatic' was selected (or otherwise disregards limited palette)24 votesI am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 27.1.1 which is available worldwide now.
Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.
You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html
Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

Previewing Mid-High Complexity files incredible Sluggish - Losing time and money
So this has become tottally unnaceptable adobe.
For the price we pay monthly, it's unnaceptable that the engine used for rendering is so primitive in comparison with one used on other (more cheaper) software such as Affinity Designer.This should be one of the features you should be focusing more.
In this thread i mentioned that since some versions of ILLUSTRATOR, the same designs i had years ago, started working more and more sluggish when previewing. And no matter the HW upgrades, it's the same. (i prefer how i worked on these 3-4 years ago)

Expected Result: The search function should respond promptly, displaying results as the query is typed.
Actual Result: Upon entering the first character in the search bar,…

Cursor won’t change when a tool is picked using keyboard shortcuts
Selected tool icons do not change when using keyboard shortcuts. For example: zooming in (Z) and then selecting Direct Selection (A) keeps the zoom icon, which is disconcerting to say the least. You're not sure you've selected the correct tool, or have to click the mouse to make sure (doing so resets the icon to the correct tool).
I've noticed it on 26.5. I rolled-back to 26.4.1 and experienced it there too. I'm running a new MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021), Apple M1 Max chip 32 GB.
I've attached screenshots of various tools that fail to switch.

Photoshopフィルターの設定情報がPhotoshopのアンインストールの影響を受ける
テクスチャライザー等のPhotoshop効果系のフィルタープラグインのカスタム設定（例：テクスチャライザーのカスタムテクスチャ設定）がPhotoshopをアンインストールすることにより初期化されてしまう。
macOS11.6.8/Windows10
ver.23〜（恐らく機能実装時から変わっていない）ver.26での例（PhotoshopCC2022がインストールしている状態）
１．ドキュメント上に任意のオブジェクトを作成。
２．効果→テクスチャ→テクスチャライザー…を選択しユーザーインターフェースを開く。
３．テクスチャ選択ドロップダウン横からサブメニューにてカスタムテクスチャを選択する。
４．OKをクリックしカスタムテクスチャを適用する。
５．カスタムテクスチャ設定情報が保存され、Illustratorを再起動してもカスタムテクスチャは有効のままになる。
６．PhotoshopCC2022を環境設定もろともアンインストールする。
７．Illustratorで前述の1〜２の手順にてテクスチャライザーのユーザーインターフェースを開くとテクスチャ選択ドロップダウンからカスタムテクスチャが消えている。現状
Photoshopをアンインストールするとテクスチャライザーのユーザーインターフェースからカスタムテクスチャが消える。期待する挙動
PhotohopをアンインストールしてもIllustrator上のいかなる設定情報も失われない。このPhotoshop効果系のフィルターの設定情報はVer.26及びver.27では「~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop 2022 Settings（Windowsはユーザーディレクトリ配下のAppData/Roaming/Adobe〜）」フォルダの「Adobe 効果 CS6 Prefs」と「Adobe テクスチャライザー CS6 Prefs」に保存されます。
このフォルダはPhotoshopの環境設定フォルダの為、Photoshopのインストール・アンインストールに影響を受けます。
不用意な設定喪失を防ぐ意味においても「Adobe Illustrator <VERSION_NUM> Settings」に保存するように変更するのが理想だと考えます。
PhotoshopをアンインストールすることでIllustratorに影響を及ぼすのは問題だと思います。19 votes -
Select Next Object commands in the right-click (context) menu are broken when in Isolation Mode
Illustrator provides two ways to access Next Object commands:
1. From Select menu
2. From the context menu, Select submenuHowever, they work differently.
If you use #1 commands, they behave as expected — Ai properly selects the objects at the current scope level (if we are isolated), by stack order in Layers.
But if you use #2 commands when isolated...
These commands, despite having the same names as the command from the top bar menu entries, rely on the object being clicked. But even knowing that (and it’s not an obvious thing to figure out), the result is weird.…10 votes
