  1. Illustrator UI Scaling Issue

    I am currently using Illustrator version 27.3.1 on a modern Lenovo laptop and the UI is far too small and hard to see. I have had this same problem now for the last few years of updates of the program. I have searched this issue many times and have tried all the solutions that have been offered by the community support and none of them work. Has there been a solution for this issue developed yet?

  5. 線と塗りが黒のテキスト選択時にカラーパネルを変更するとパネルの挙動がおかしくなる


    PC:Mac Studio M1 MAX / OS Ventura 13.4と13.5
    Illustrator:26.5.3と27.7で同じ現象を確認

    ②線と塗りにC0Y0M0K100が適応されているテキストを選択した状態で、カラーパネルをCMYKからグレースケールに変える。

    ③C0Y0M0K100からK100になる。
    ④見た目は黒だがカラーパネルはK=0になってしまっている。
     修正しようとするとオブジェクトが白になってしまう。

    補足:グレースケールからCMYKパネルに変更した時も黒から白になります。ちなみにアピアランス設定で塗りと色を黒にして同じ操作をすると問題なく黒のままでした。

    既出でしたら申し訳ございません、ご検証宜しくお願いいたします。

    Using the rotate tool to rotate something freezes while rotating, and Illustrator never comes back (tried waiting for hours). Using rotate dialog box from the menu has no problem.

  7. Display different colors even though the color profiles match.

    OS: macOS Ventura 13.6.1
    Software: Illustrator CC 2023, Indesign CC 2023, Photoshop CC 2024

    Steps to Reproduce:

    Step 1:
    Set a unified color profile across all CC applications using Bridge (In this case, Adobe RGB + Japan Color 2011 Coated were used).

    Step 2:
    Create an image in Photoshop in RGB mode with a solid cyan color (#00ffff), embed the color profile, and save it.

    Step 3:
    Place the image created in Photoshop into Indesign and check the values when converted to CMYK in Overprint Preview.

    Step 4:
    Repeat the process from step 3 in Illustrator.

    Expected Result:
    Both Indesign…

  8. Adobe Express QR Code Keeps Crashing Illustrator

    I was working on a poster and needed a QR Code. I built a code in Adobe Express, saved it as SVG file, and opened it, along with my poster, in Illustrator. Every time I tried to copy the QR Code to paste it on my poster, Illustrator crashed. I tried re-doing the code, saving it as different file types, etc. When I recreated the QR Code in a different program, it worked perfectly.

  9. File adding images unnecassarily in file

    When i reopen a file, illustrator has duplicated and randomly placed (and sized) images from within the file or even doubled the link that was in place. It adds an additional image for each link in the file and also asks them to be relinked! Very frustrating having to look through and clean up the file.

  10. Full screen mode does not take up 100% of the screen when the Windows taskbar is hidden

    Hello! In April update of Windows (22621.1413) developers changed automatic taskbar hiding mode, now it is hidden completely, without 1 pixel border. I think that this is a good solution, but some Adobe programs (Illustrator, InDesign) in full screen mode do not open 100% of the screen when the taskbar is hidden, leaving a gap of 1 pixel at the bottom of the screen which shows the desktop wallpaper, and if it is bright and contrasts with the interface of these programs, it looks defiant and it is not good. An application running in full screen mode should take up…

  12. Artboard Snapping is broken when creating a new artboard

    If you're creating a new artboard, you can snap the edges of the artboard to previously created artboards.

    However, if you hold SHIFT to constrain proportions (handy if you're making social size assets for example), the snapping no longer works, even though you'll still see the snapping points.

    Furthermore, when you constrain proportions, the artboard location will be a decimal point, meaning if you Export For Screens, you'll get extra pixels added to your artboard thanks to a different unrelated illustrator bug.

    Video attached.

  14. Pressing Numpad Enter no longer commits editing a note for an object in 27.6.1

    In previous version hitting Numpad Enter in the Note filed in the Attributes panel would have commit the changes into the field (while the main Enter created a new line). In 27.6.1 it’s not longer working, hitting Numpad Enter does not do anything — even create a new line. It should work and commit changes :(

    Steps:
    1. Open Attributes panel
    2. In the panel’s flyout menu choose Show Note
    3. Create any object, keep it selected
    4. Put the cursor in the Note field in Attributes panel and type anything
    5. Press Numpad Enter

    Expected: editing should end
    Current…

    When exporting multiple artboards, they are not saving as individual artboard names but rather, trying to save as the main file name.

  16. Exporting SVG file with Preserve Editing Capabilities checked issue

    I have a doc with multiple artboards. When I export the SVG file, I select the individual artboard and export like usual, but recently it's been exporting the entire doc, with all the other artboards as well. Even previewing doesn't show all of the boards, I can only tell when I open the SVG file back up or look at the file size.

  18. Can't access any of the toolbar elements since Updating to new Mac OS

    When I click on any of the elements in the left-hand toolbar nothing happens except sometimes it pulls me out of Illustrator entirely, as if I clicked on the desktop. Also the cursor appears to be off by an full inch. I don't if that issue is related, but I only started having these issues after I updated my computer to the latest Mac OS two days ago. Can you please let me know when this will be fixed. I have clients waiting for designs and I can't create anything in Illustrator at the moment. (Checked and Illustrator is up…

  20. app.preferences.setIntegerPreference() does not work

    app.preferences.setIntegerPreference("rulerType", 0) changes the selection in the GUI but doesn't actually apply the change to the document.

    I still have to go into the GUI preferences, change the units to something else, then back to inches and close for the change to actually apply to the current document.
