  1. Direct selection tool appears to move whole object until mouse release

    When part of an object is selected using the direct selection tool (selection tool and holding 'V' key down) the whole object appears to move to the new position until the mouse is released, at which point all the unselected points snap back to their original position. I'm assuming this is a bug and not intended?

  4. Using Type Character Panel generates error message 100% of the time

    Whenever I use the Type panel in Adobe Illustrator 2022 (Beta) 26.6.564, the bug window in the attachment opens up. This happens when trying to select a font or change any font characteristics. It occurs on two different computers running Windows 11 22H2. One is an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X with 32GB DRAM-DDR4 and the other is a Xeon processor with 64GB DRAM-DDR3.

  6. ダイレクト選択ツールでクローズパスからセグメントコピーでプレビューに残像が残る

    ダイレクト選択ツールでクローズパスからセグメントをコピーするとプレビューに残像が残ってしまいます。
    過去のバージョンでは長年、このような表示やプレビューの残存はありませんでした。改善してもらえませんでしょうか？

    1. Windows10 Adobe Illustrator 27.0
    2. クローズパスのダイレクト選択ツールでセグメントをクリックしてAlt（Option)を押したまま真横にマウスドラックでコピー
    3. 元のクローズパスのシェイプは固定表示されたまま、アウトライン表示でドラックしているパスをリアルタイム表示、クリックを離した瞬間選択中のパスのセグメントが抜き取られるようにコピー完了、プレビューの残像は残らない（過去のIllustratorバージョンの通常の表示を期待していた）

  9. Small objects rotating instead of scaling when grabbing corners of bounding box

    New laptop has forced me over to Win11 & the latest suite. Illustrator 26.3.1

    When trying to grab small objects by their corners to scale, it rotates.

    Expected result - Being able to scale!
    Actual Result - Rotating, immediately putting the object at 45 degrees.

    An old thread from 2018 ("Rotate vs scale") claims this may have something to do with scaling on high res monitors but was marked solved without being solved. This new laptop has a 4k screen.

    If you hover the cursor juuuust inside the corner it works, but anything outside and it's forcing rotation.

    If I…

  10. Error css classes in svg export

    In version before 26.2, applying a graphic style to a simple object (rectangle, line, etc.) allowed the name of that graphic style to be used as a CSS class in the an exported SVG. So a graphic style of "thick-outline" would become a CSS class called ".thick-outline" when the SVG file was exported with internal CSS.

    Now, a useless class called "cls-1" is applied to the illustrator object instead, making re-use of overriding of the style in the SVG difficult. This is a regression that makes the usefulness of the SVG export feature limited.

    See below for a comparison of…

  11. Text from Old Version Of Illustrator Not Visible in 2022 version

    I am currently running AI 2022 on a Windows 10 machine. I had a file that I created on AI 2019 that I wanted to open and edit. When I open the file, none of the text appears and I cannot click or edit it. This also occurs when I try to open PDFs of the 2019 AI files in AI 2022. I even tried editing the PDFs in Acrobat, but that just crashed acrobat.

  13. Scripting Issue on MacOS Monterey

    We had this script for Illustrator that will export PDF and images with predefined presets. This was working until some of our team upgraded their macOS to Monterey.

    When they tried to run the script it will create a PDF and images with different file names, we are expecting that it will have the same file name from the AI file.

    EXPECTED RESULT:

    AI File: 02020-MVP-3.ai

    Exported Files:
    - 0202-MVP-3-THUMBNAIL.png
    - 0202-MVP-3-FULL.png
    - 0202-MVP-3.pdf

    ACTUAL RESULT:

    AI File: 02020-MVP-3.ai

    Exported Files:
    - ai1655486566390202-MVP-3-THUMBNAIL.png
    - ai165548656639    0202-MVP-3-FULL.png

  14. Properties panel interface spacing bug

    The Properties panel is displayed with extra spaces between all the fields,
    it's to the point where you have to scroll down to view the quick actions.

    I tried resetting preferences and reinstalling yet it's still showing in the same way.

    I'm trying zooming in and out on the panel with Ctrl + mouse wheel but it doesn't seem to work.

    Here are some screenshots of the Properties panel

    Any proposition to find a solution to this annoying interface bug is welcome.

    Thank you

  15. Can't Access a Saved File from a folder in Google Drive

    The Issue:
    I saved an illustrator file then closed the program. After some days, I reopened the program. I could see the preview thumbnail showing my latest edit but when I clicked on it to open, it went back to a much earlier version of the file. This has now happened twice. Please help if you have solved this successfully.

    Details:
    Illustrator 26.2.1 (64-bit)
    OS: Windows 10
    RAM: 12GB
    Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6600U CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.81 GHz

  16. CC Library to Illustrator Swatch: Name Length Bug Creates Magenta Spot Color

    When adding a Color Swatch to Illustrator from the CC Library:

    If the CC Library item's name is over a certain number of characters, Illustrator cannot import the swatch correctly.

    Instead, Illustrator imports the CC Library color as a Magenta Spot Color.

    The only workaround currently is to shorten the CC Library item's name to match the maximum allowed characters for an Illustrator Swatch, and then import the color.

    FIX: Allow more characters for Illustrator Swatch names to be compatible with with CC Library character length for items.
