  2. Gradients with opacity act as a clipping mask for objects behind them

    When working with complex groups and gradients, often times an object with a semi-transparent gradient ends up removing the graphics from grouped items below it.

    The solution I've found is to ungroup and regroup items, but I feel this shouldn't happen in the first place. It also disrupts my workflow and how I group items in the first place.

    I don't know how to describe the steps to recreate it, other than "it happens sometimes." I think it happens more often if I've created Blends, even if those blends have been expanded.

    The images attached show two examples of what's…

  3. Illustrator often fails to build a smooth blend for paths with mismatched number of anchors

    Take a look at the file attached and watch the images attached.
    Two curves are blended: one has 4 anchors, another one has 5 anchors.
    The blend Ai build has weird irregular slits in the middle.

    If you expand the blend and select problematic anchors, you’ll see that positions are correct, but some handles get interpolated wrongly.

    This happens often in many other scenarios.
    The current workaround is to add more points to blend, trying to guess and control which point get paired with another.
    Another workaround is to cut curves in pieces and blend in chunks.

  6. Editing a repeat object unhides unrelated objects

    When editing a repeat object in isolation mode then after exiting the isolation mode, other (unrelated) objects that were formerly hidden, get unhidden.

  7. 'Share a review link to your file' advertisement dialog still pops when disabled

    Sometimes, when I save a PDF file (at least in Illustrator Beta), I get this dialog.
    I would like to see it go away forever.

    It pops up in the most inopportune moment — when I already decided to save a PDF and when I need to SAVE my data, and not to TRY something new. 'Come not between a user and his saved data'. Saving a file is an emergency operation — always, each time — JUST DON’T INTERFERE.

    Even though I already chose to never see it again, I still get it. Just use 1KB of your Cloud…

  10. Automatic hyphenation with + instead of -

    Sometimes (not always), the automatic hyphenation divides the word with an "+" sign, instead of a "-" sign, which it should be. It appears with various fonts, it is NEVER reliable, sometimes I write a PDF for the customer, it has the + inside, I see it, I open the AI again and everything if fine again, without restarting anything or changing anything. Sometimes it gets not written correctly for weeks and I have to hyphenate myself, which we all know, is a drag in Illustrator.

    Where is the Problem located, and how do we fix it.

  13. Image resolution differs depending on image orientation

    When placing an image in Illustrator, the image format is HEIC, and in portrait mode or landscape: The landscape picture shows the amount of ppi as 1 logical number. The portrait mode picture shows 2 numbers for ppi, and they are totally different.

  16. "Load paragraph styles" or "Load all styles" doesn't overwrite styles with same name

    I have a set of 9 template files that I need to update. Each file contains an identical set of about a dozen paragraph styles. I want to update all the paragraph styles in all of the files.
    I updated the styles in the first file (correctstyles.ai) and changed kerning from Auto to Optical. When I open the next file, (e.g. SHED-2023-5-simple-columns-narrow.ai), I use "Load Para Styles" and choose the first file (correctstyles.ai). When I check the style definitions, kerning is still set to Auto. The kerning value should have changed to Optical to match the style from…

  17. Blank PNG export

    Files exported as pngs in the newest version of illustrator are coming up as blank and will export as 0 bytes. This is happening on desktop and laptop for Mac, unsure if happening on PC/Windows.

  18. Envelope Distort using a shape with 4 points as a top object generates an unexpected envelope

    Text and envelope distort bug still needs work.
    I've seen this reported before but it is strange why it has not been addressed in the latest version of AI, the envelope distort with top object will warp text for example, incorrectly, if the bounding object is at a certain angle. The workaround is not satisfactory because the bounding object must be rotated more horizontally to the text, resulting in an env. distort that's not the intended effect. Please see examples of before and after: one is correct (had to derive from CorelDraw), the other is not (AI).

    Another issue is…

  20. 3D Extrude & Bevel

    I've been working with some of my previous design clients and noticed that when I add the extrude and bevel to a rectangle shape and I choose the draw hidden faces function it just don't show up when I do the expand appearance. I tried to edit by going back to the appearance panel and deactivate and then reactivate it then it worked. Has anyone got this before or it's only me ?
