Changing the Transparency removes brush
When I have several lines applied with a Pattern Brush and change the transparency of those lines to 50%, everything is fine. As soon as I return to 100% opacity, the Pattern Brush is completely removed and I have to reapply it.

Pressing Ctrl/Cmd+Enter in Color field no longer adjusts other color values proportionately with live color preview since 27.1.1
Prior to 27.1.1, when live color changes were made, we were able to use Ctrl/Cmd+Enter after changing a value to proportionally move all other sliders, which is an equivalent of dragging a slider with Ctrl/Cmd key held.
The face the preview is now live should not kill this old feature., since Ai surely can remember previous values.14 votesWe have fixed the issue and a build with the fix is available in Beta.

Share for a review can't update
When I try to update the file In Illustrator so the last changes are applied I get this message: there was an error updating the artefact. It happens occasionally but when I try second time to update mostly it works. This is the first link I cannot update for a review, I have at least 10 other jobs I share with 20 other people and they all work.

OSX Sonoma 14.1.2 closes Illustrator 28
I searched and couldn't find this issue. Currently using OSX 14.1.2 on a MBP.
16-inch 2021, M1 Max, 64GB mem, Sonoma 14.1.2
I keep getting the following error from the OS:
"Updated required for "illustrator"
This version of "illustrator" is not compatible with macOS 14 or later and needs to be updated. Contact the app developer for more information.FWIW, this happened on the 2023 version of ai as well, so I updated it to the latest 2024 just to be safe. I'm still getting the above error though, which is funny because there's nothing I could update to. So…

When you try and save the ilustrator file it shows the error you see.I cannot share the ilustrator file since its sensitive infomation but sent screenshot. If someone from Adobe send me an email to marcos@mercadoglobal.org to…

Incorrect word count via script
At some point (I think v27) Illustrator has changed its word counting/division algorithm.
So, where previously the results were sensible:
"This.Was.Four.Words" — word count: 4
"This.Is.3.Words" — word count: 4
"I.WF05f.07.AB.000" — word count: 5
"I.WF05f.AB.07.000" — word count: 5In version 27.4 the results are now confused:
"This.Was.Four.Words" — word count: 1
"This.Is.3.Words" — word count: 3
"I.WF05f.07.AB.000" — word count: 4
"I.WF05f.AB.07.000" — word count: 2For a discussion on the topic, and a testing script, see this thread.
Note: maybe this bug was introduced while fixing this bug.

Can't Delete User Defined Swatches
I can't seem to find a way to delete my user defined swatches (or brushes) from the adobe library. Even when i look in my Mac Library folder I can't find where they are stored to delete them that way. I've tried saving over them with new ones by the same name but that just duplicated them. It would be nice if there was an easier way to organize + delete swatches, but I feel like Adobe makes a lot of features unnecessarily complicated.

AIC Autosave Automatically Disabled Itself
AIC files autosave in Illustrator 28.7.1 for Mac Desktop is not working half the time. Some files it autosaves and others (usually the very large ones) don't. This hasn't been an issue before the latest release that I can see.
If autosave isn't working a prompt letting me know would be great. Also, a repeating prompt if I haven't saved in a while would be an added bonus.

My screen resolution is 1366 x 768, I am facing this problem since I started using this laptop (HP EliteBook 850 G3): everything in Illustrator is working fine, but I am not able to move Recolor Panel, because the top section of recolor panel is hidden under the ruler, I have to hide the ruler and how somehow hardly I can move the panel.

Unable to select rasterized grayscale images
This has been a bug for a while now...
When trying to select/drag rasterized Grayscale images (rasterized in Illustrator), the image is unselectable — the only way to select the image is to go into Wireframe mode and click the bounding box. This doesn't seem to be the case with RBG or Bitmap rasterized images, only grayscale.

Fill opacity, rgba color results in no color
Released Version of Illustrator (28.0)
Problem Description:
I can change the opacity of an element fill using fill-opacity attribute or by adding the fill like this: fill="rgba(12, 12, 12, 0.5)". But seems rgba color is not recognizable by AI, we see such element as black. If we save this as svg (save as -> svg), we can see that such elements do not have color at all, that why we see them as black.
Workaround: To avoid it we can use fill-opacity instead of rgba. But then, if we save such svg in the way like file -> export ->…1 vote -
