  3. Editing handles of smooth points using ALT to change one side only

    Adobe Illustrator 2024 on MacBook Pro running Sonomas 14.5
    When editing smooth points I used to be able to select one side of the handle, hold the ALT key and edit the direction of that handle independently. Now it duplicates a part of the path. It's slowing me down a lot. Used - making waves, hair texture on objects, etc. Thank you

  5. Filled area text boxes do not export to SVG (v. 28.4.1)

    In the current 28.4.1 version, our files do not export to SVG correctly. You can easily reproduce this by creating any area text box and apply a fill to the box. The text will export, but not the filled box. We use this for all our our org charts and other graphics where we want the text to be easily centered in the boxes as the boxes get resized and moved.

  6. Font characters get replaced with weird symbols in Illustrator 2024

    I've noticed that I'm unable to change my variable fonts in Illustrator after updating to 2024. In my case, the characters are replaced with weird symbols as soon as I alter any of the variable axis.

  7. バウンディングボックスでのオブジェクト調整時にプレビュー境界が利用されない。

    macOS 13.6.3 iMac27inch(Intel/32GB mem/1TB Storage)/MacMini(M1/16GB mem/512GB Storage)
    Illustrator ver.28.3

    問題が発生したときに実行していた手順
    1.環境設定で「プレビュー境界」のチェックボックスをオンにする。
    2.「表示→バウンディングボックを表示」でバウンディングボックスの表示を有効にする。
    3.100pt×100ptの矩形を描画し10ptの線幅を付ける。この状態では変形パネルのwとhはそれぞれ110ptと表示されている。
    4.3の矩形の任意のコーナーをドラッグするためにマウスポインタを近づけプレスした瞬間にバウンディングボックスがプレビュー境界基準から線幅を参照しない状態となり線幅の分拡大された状態からの調整となる。

    想定していた結果
    プレビュー境界が有効な状態でバウンディングボックスを操作できる。

    実際の結果
    バウンディングボックスでの調整を行おうとしている間はプレビュー境界が無効になった状態での操作になる。

    2020(ver24)以降「プレビュー境界を使用」をチェックしている場合バウンディングボックスは線幅を含めた状態で表示されますが、そのバウンディングボックスを利用して拡大・縮小を行おうとした場合、ver23までのバージョンと同様にプレビュー境界を使わない状態での調整となります。そのため、バウンディングボックスの任意のコーナーをプレスした瞬間にオブジェクトが自動的に拡大された状態からのスタートとなります。この状態では微調整は難しく、運用上はプレビュー境界をオフにしないとバウンディングボックスによる調整はできないと考えます。

  9. Command Z not working for some functions

    Using the keyboard shortcut for Undo does not work for some functions. Reordering layers does not respond to the keyboard shortcut but works via the Edit menu selecting Undo. Same issue with "Show All". Command Z doesn't work but selecting Undo from the Edit menu works.

  12. Rotating with Shift held doesn't rotate precisely at 180 degrees

    MacBook Pro 16-inch, 2021
    Apple M1 Pro
    16 GB memory
    Sonoma 14.1.2

    Illustrator 28.4.1

    Holding down shift while rotating an object "180deg" doesn't actually rotate it 180deg. It's maybe 179deg, which is a major problem.

  13. Making a regular triangle with Star tool duplicates the path

    Scissor tool cuts lines and duplicates them (completely broken)

    Make a triangle by selecting the star and changing it to 3 lines (triangle), now cut one of the lines with the scissor. It duplicates the shape! This bug is seen across multiple shapes and lines. The scissor tool is broken along with selecting individual points often creates duplicate lines.

    The quality of adobe products has just gone downhill in the last 5 years.

  14. Transform Pattern Tiles Checkbox in Settings resets after applying Transofm Effect in Appearance Panel

    Hi there!
    When you check "Transform Pattern Tiles" in Settings, and after that - edit or apply the Transform effect in the Appearance panel without checking "Transform Patterns" in the Transform Effect window (even if you are not editing a pattern fill), the "Transform Pattern Tiles" checkbox in Settings resets.

    You don't think about Patterns when you are editing not a pattern fill. So it's insanely inconvenient.

  18. Alt + Shift hotkeys for menu commands in the latest version are broken

    Any keyboard shortcut that uses both Alt and Shift sends Alt only when pressed.

    So if you have a 'Alt + Shift + T' hotkey assigned to something, pressing it will open Type menu instead ('Alt + T').


    Also, a hotkey that uses F-key with a modifier launches an action that is assigned to F-key without modifiers, but not the command.

    I have an action that uses F3 for launch.
    Then I make a new keyboard shortcut for a menu command, assigned to Alt+F3.

    I expect to run the command when I hit Alt+F3.
    Instead, Ai does not launch the…

  19. Accent changes fonts

    When we use Variable Concepr Fonts if I write text that contain letters with accents, the style of the typography changes. It's quite annoying.

  20. Making adjustments to a value within a panel's field, either through a scroll wheel or a swipe up/down gesture, operates inversely.

    1) Click on a field with a certain value in a panel (e.g., "Keyboard Increment" value in the "Properties" panel).
    2) Scroll up or down to adjust its value.
    3) Scrolling up will result in decreasing the value.
    4) Scrolling down will now result in increasing the value.

    This is counter intuitive. It should work vice versa. Scrolling UP should INCREASE the value, and scrolling DOWN should DECREASE it.
    Please, fix it.
