  3. Canvas goes white and blue when selecting object.

    Whenever I select anything on the canvas, the entire canvas goes full white, and alternates between blue and white. Clicking anywhere on the canvas returns to the previous view, but it makes it impossible to make adjustments. I'm using Illustrator 25.0.1, on a 2019 16" MacBook Pro running macOS Big Sur. I tied reverting to 25.0.0 but the same problem occurred.

  4. 書き出し設定からjpgを書き出した時。

    書き出し形式からjpgを書き出した際,裁ち落とし設定を入れていてもアートボードの大きさで書き出されてしまいました。2020では通常の書き出しができたので,2021のみのバグのようです。

  5. Custom Colors convert to CMYK automatically, when we set "Effect->Blur->Gaussian Blur".

    When we apply Effect->Blur->Gaussian blur an object with a custom color, it will be converted to CMYK color in overprint preview mode.
    Also, when we export PDF, it will convert to CMYK.

    Illustrator ver.24.2
    OSX 10.13.6

    The steps you were taking when you experienced the issues
    1. To make pathItems that colored Custom color.
    2. Select it and apply Effect->Blur->Gaussian Blur.
    3. Open Separation preview panel and check Overprint preview.
    4. Custom color objects seem to convert to CMYK.
    5. To export it to PDF, the custom color will discard and convert to CMYK.

    Your expected result
    We lose custom…

  6. 文字パレットのサイズ変更がうまくいかない。

    24.3にアップデートました。
    クリックでサ文字イズを変更していると、途中でおかしな数字となり(以前は1Qごとに移行していた)、それ以上進まない。
    そうなるとコマンド+zも効かなくなる。

    ご報告いただきました「ver.24.3 での単位系[級]の場合のフォントサイズ変更」の問題ですが、単位系演算誤差に関する問題に起因しておりました。

    こちらは解決済みとして、対応完了とさせていただきますのでご了承ください。
    もし、最新版でも再現するようでしたら、ご報告ください。

  8. 配置画像のリンク切れ

    macOS Big Sur ver.11.5.2 Illustrator ver.25.3.1 M1Universal

    intele MacでパッケージをしたデータをIllustrator ver.25.3.1 M1Universalで開くと画像のリンクが全て外れます。
    またリンクフォルダから1つ配置し直すと本来は全て自動的に読み込み再リンクされますが、これもされず全画像リンク処理をしなければなりません。
    改善策をおしえてください。

  9. 筆圧にてブラシの線幅設定をした線をコピペして、コピペ先のブラシを基本に設定すると、コピペ元の線幅設定が消える

    [現状]
    ①ペンタブレット筆圧感知にて、ブラシに線幅設定(線の入り抜き)を持たせながら描きます。
    ②ライブペイントを使用する為、線をコピー&ペースト。(背面以外の場所でも再現性あり)
    ③コピー先の線を、ブラシ”基本”にすると、コピー元の線幅情報が消えます。(入り抜き無しの一定の線になります)

    [想定していた結果]
    コピペ先の線の設定を変更しても、コピペ元には影響されない。CS6と同様の動作。

  10. In CC2020 and later, referencing the created property of the File class returns "null”.

    Environment
    macOS 10.15.6
    Illustrator CC ver.25.1

    Step and reproduce
    1.Select menu ”File->Script->Other Script" and choose below one.

    //JavaScript File detail
    var f=File.openDialog("");
    alert(f.created);

    Expected result
    Illustrator shows "null". It must be return files created date.

    Actual result
    ”null” is returned.

    In CC2019 this property was successfully retrieved. It seems that a problem occurred after CC2020. Also, even if we put it in the 2021 family, other applications can get "created" property normally.
    "modified" property behaves similarly strangely in relation to this issue.

    This behavier shows only macOS. Windows can return as normal.

  11. Illustrator 2021 (Version 25.0.0) crashing when running Variable Importer script

    Ever since the update, the program crashes when you either "test" the files before importing the variables or even if you skip this step and directly choose importing the variables, it completely crashes the application. I require this script for my job and have a project due this Friday, October 30th 2020. Please address immediately.

  13. Mac OS Save As file name highlight bug

    Productivity killing bug in Illustrator 25.2.3, but not Photoshop 22.3.1!:

    Mac OS (Catalina, currently) Save As dialog box highlights the entire file name, including the extension, which has been a bug the past several versions. For over a decade, Save As would not include the extension in the highlight, so one could tap the arrow key once to the end of the file name to change it, to increment a version number for example. This bug has been a huge stumbling block in my productivity.

    Also, in Illustrator, the sometimes Save As does not highlight the file name at all…

  14. ExportOptionsPNG24.artBoardClipping broken in 2020

    ExportOptionsPNG24.artBoardClipping (set to false)

    In 2019 (23.1), PNGs exported by javascript are trimmed to the visible bounds of the object as expected when false. When true, they're the size of the artboard.

    In 2020 (24.3), the same script always produces PNGs the size of the artboard whatever artBoardClipping is set to.

    Illustrator 24.3 vs Illustrator 23.1
    Windows 10
    Script run via Illustrator (File/Scripts) as well as testing in ETSK 4.0.0.1

    It's a dealbreaker for version 24. We can't upgrade as a team unless this is fixed.

  15. 保存時のエラー

    保存をする時、画面が出きっていない状態で次の動作を押すと必ずエラ〜メッセージが出る。例えば別名保存(コマンド+シフト+S)を実行し、まだ画面に保存先などの指名画面が出ていないうちに、デスクトップ(コマンドD)を押すとエラーになる。

    もう一つ
    保存形式を選んだ後に保存先のフォルダを選ぼうとするとそのフォルダ名が保存ファイル名に勝手になってしまう。

  16. Applying stroke for a non-grouped marqueed set of shapes removes fill from those objects (v25.3.1)

    Just as the title says, selecting a set of non-grouped objects and applying a stroke that selection causes all of the fills in those shapes to be removed.

  20. Illustrator is not exporting with the current file name

    1. Create a document
    2. Draw a rectangle (just for it to have something inside)
    3. Save it anywhere as '1.ai'
    4. Export a, say, TIF, with default settings (these don't really matter) — Ai will offer '1.tif' name for the file exported
    5. Save this document as '2.ai'
    6. Export another TIF — Ail will use '1.tif' name, although the file is now '2.ai' This is wrong. Ai should adapt the name from the file actual name and not the original one.
