Align Text box with Object Using Windows 7 or High Sierra and Illustrator 24.2
Align text with any object is not aligned properly. Presently it takes text box and actual height/width of text and aligns object width/height.
I understand this is way Illustrator text work, but can changed/update so can properly aligns. Hoping to get it resolved in near coming versions.
The alignment should work like Indesign or any vector program. Check attachment.
3 votesYou can now choose to align to preview bound of a type object, using Align to Glyph Bounds option in Align panel’s menu.
Please comment back if you have any problems with that.

Turn off the annoying Tour windows. I hate it. TURN OFF the Tour. Stupid idea and counterproductive.

Illustrator crashes when switching views in the Asset Export panel Has this been reported yet? There's a really easy-to-reproduce crash bug in Adobe Illustrator involving the Asset Export panel that affects even the latest version (24.2) .
If the Asset Export panel contains more than two items and an item other than the first is currently being renamed and the view is attempted to be switched from Grid View to List View, the mouse cursor will begin to move really slowly for a few seconds and after that, Illustrator will crash. See the video attached for a demonstration.Some system info:

Running an Action from script Hello,
In Illustrator CC latest update, my following script does not work:
1- Select a couple paths (in script) (all of them close paths in different groups)
2- execute my action which offset paths with certain amountThe problem is in this new version after the action dis-select all of them except one, but before this version it worked and keep all of my selection paths still as selected ( by path I mean the new offset paths, but for all of them)
It really made trouble for my script in the company, because some computer still does not have…

CC 2020 gradient tool not updating result live, only when releasing the mouse button (like in CC 2018) In CC 2019, when using the gradient tool to apply or modify a gradient, the result of using the tool was live updated as you applied/moved it. Now in CC 2020, the tool has reverted back to how it was in CC 2018, meaning you have to let go of the mouse button to see the result. Seeing the result live saves time for me and makes it easier to get a satisfying result quicker.

SVG Stroke Widths are not scaled according to viewBox MacOS Mojave 10.14.6
Illustrator CC 2019- rename the attached .txt file to .svg and import the SVG file into Illustrator.
expected: it should display two horizontal lines
actual: it appears as a rectangle because the lines are touchinghere are two lines, 200px apart, with 100px stroke width in a 500x500 SVG with a viewbox of 1000x1000. since the viewbox is twice the size of the SVG document, the stroke width should be scaled down to 50px and the lines should not overlap.

Home screen lists unmodified files as "Last modified" The Home Screen lists recent files sorted by "last modified" even when those files have not been modified.
The list actually shows the files which were last viewed (or last closed), regardless of whether the file has been modified.
It would be useful to have both these options, but the current situation is wrong and misleading.

Pathfinder Incorrect Work Hi!
I have a problem with Pathfinder in new Illustrator version 24 (2020) (macOS 10.15.1). Please look at the image attached. Pathfinder doesn't cut a compound shape out of a path or another compound shape. It merges the two instead.
It worked fine in the previous version of Illustrator.4 votesHi Everyone,

Rotate dialogue box is now painfully inefficient (CC2019) Rotate and Scale functions used to work the same, where you could press R+Enter or S+Enter to bring up their respective dialogue boxes, type in a number, and hit Enter. Very fast, very efficient. Now when you call up the Rotate dialogue box, the focus is on this manual angle widget instead of the numeric field. And should you try to use Tab to change the focus to that field you have to hit it 5x.
This used to be extremely efficient, which was great since it's not uncommon to use this feature hundreds of times in a day. It…

100% view is not 100% for pixels in cc2019 OMG, yesterday I've updated illustrator cc2018 to cc2019. Objects now in 100% view are diplayed as ~151% - see attached file - in left side - illustrator cc2018 window and 400x400 px square in 100% view. In the right side - the same square in 100% view.
Please fix this annoing bug.

Zoom works in two ways in Ai – one is based on the pixel density of the display, and other is on actual (physical) size of the element. The setting to control this is in:
Preferences > Display Print Size at 100% Zoom
Above setting ensures what you see at 100% zoom would be the physical size of the art. You can actually put a ruler against the screen and a 1inch rectangle will measure 1in on screen at 100%.
But this may not work right for screen design workflows. Make sure you uncheck this, if actual size zoom is not needed.

Cannot see gradient annotator when several objects are selected Hi, in the latest version of Illustrator (2020), I can't see the gradient annotator when I select several objects at the same time. With a single object selected the annotator looks correctly, but when selecting two or more objects it is no longer displayed.
In previous versions, the gradient annotator is shown when selecting several objects, which I find very useful for copying the properties of the gradient from one object to another.6 votesI am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 24.1.1 for Win and 24.1 for Mac which is available worldwide now.

XD and PS defaults to open .ai files - AI files should open with Illustrator only Working in windows 10. After updating XD and Illustrator to 2019, all my existing .ai files have been defaulted to open in XD. I can use the "Open With" option to successfully open .ai files in Illustrator but the default always stays with XD no matter how many times I select Illustrator.
Uninstalled XD. AI files cannot locate Illustrator as primary software for launch.

BUG - Offset path preview remains in artwork even after cancel or tick off preview Hi. Since Illustrator 23 I have a very strange bug in the preview of offset path. When I select a shape and select offset path I get the dialog. In the dialog I can set the variables. if I then click ok all is well. But if I check preview I can see what the values I entered will do. So far so good. But then something strange happens. If I change a value I see the result in a preview, but I also see the first preview. The result is even added to the last preview path. And i…
