L'utilisation de l'outil Pipette nécessite l'utilisation du sélecteur de couleurs et la pression sur Entrée.
Quand j'utilise la pipette pour sélectionner une couleur (peu importe en rvb ou CMJN) sur des visuels simples, (la plupart du temps) je suis obligée de passer par le sélecteur pour refaire la démarche et obligatoirement je dois appuyer sur entrée pour valider mon choix (si je fais ok ça ne marche pas non plus) (je suis sur mac 14.3.1) j'utilise illustrator 30.0.0 (et ce problème persiste depuis 2- 3versions antérieures déjà. J'avais essayé sur la suivante sans succès non plus. merci pour votre retour

Fehler: Zeichenfläche verdoppelt beim Anpassen an Grafik
Windows 11 Pro, AI.30.2.1.. ich markiere meinen Pfad und öffne "Zeichenflächen". Ich wähle "An ausgewählte Grafik anpassen". Bestätige. Nun sollte Zeichenfläche 1 eine neue Größe haben.
Währenddessen wird die Zeichenfläche verdoppelt und eine Zeichenfläche 2 erzeugt.
Der Fehler tritt nicht auf, wenn man sehr lange wartet zwischen den Arbeitsschritten. Also ca. das Fenster 1 Minute geöffnet lässt.Das Problem besteht seit ein paar Tagen. Eigentlich sollte die Zeichenfläche nur angepasst werden, nicht verdoppelt.

Panning at high zoom levels appears blurry
The issue that previously occurred and was resolved has reappeared in the latest version. I have attached the previous link and details. I kindly request a prompt resolution.
https://community.adobe.com/questions-652/document-work-area-appears-blurry-repost-814442
If you drag to work with the preview enlarged, the work area preview will look blurry.
The more you zoom in, the more severe the symptoms are.
There wasn't until the last version of 2023, but it came up at some point.
Due to the nature of the work, there are many cases where the work is small, so it is enlarged and modified.It's quite disruptive to the workflow. Please…

Gradient Panel gets cut off when selecting a gradient object.
There's an odd bug on Mac (M1 Pro with Latest version of Tahoe) where the Gradient Panel will expand in a way that it cuts off the position input when selecting an object with a gradient. Collapsing and opening the panel temporarily fixes it, but if you click off and click another gradient object again, it'll do it again.
This bug was also in 30.1, and I just updated to the latest version a few minutes ago, tested it again, and the issue is still there.

Transparency Lost in After Effects When Importing v30 AI Files
Transparency Information Lost When Importing Illustrator v30 AI Files into After Effects 2026
Environment:
- Hardware: MacBook Pro 16-inch (November 2023), Apple M3 Pro, 36GB RAM
- OS: macOS Sequoia 15.7.4
- Illustrator version with issue: v30.2.1 (2026)
- Illustrator version without issue: v28.7.10 (2024)
- After Effects version: 2026When an .ai file saved in Illustrator 2026 (v30) is imported as footage into After Effects 2026, transparency information — including blend modes, opacity settings, and effects such as drop shadows — is lost or ignored. Affected layers render as fully opaque.

PDF/X-4 Export Produces Non-Compliant PDFs in Illustrator v30.2.1
In v28, when exporting PDF/X-4 via an Action or script, inserting a "Convert to Working CMYK" step into the workflow allowed consistent production of PDF/X-4 compliant files with no preflight errors.
In v30, following the exact same workflow with identical files and the same preset now produces non-compliant PDFs. Acrobat preflight reports two distinct errors that did not occur in v28.
Preflight Error #1 — Placed image ICC profile conflict:
"CMYK source profile is the same as the PDF/X output intent destination profile (201 occurrences, 2 pages)"Cause: Placed PSD files have Japan Color 2001 Coated embedded as an ICC…

ファイルのアクセス権が起動時に必ず求められる
Mac版についてになります。
アプリの起動を行うと、まず初めに「Adobe Illustrator 2026から、他のアプリからのデータへのアクセス権を求められています。」
という確認ポップアップが、表示されるようになりました。Macの設定にある、「セキュリティ、プライバシー」のファイルアクセスなどに関する権限をみたところ、追加がされていませんでした。
(なお、PremiereやPhotoshopは追加されていました)
残念ながら、Mac上では対象アプリを追加することができないようになっており、これらの対応策が見つからない状態になりました。同様の現象などで回避策をお持ちでしたらご教示ください。

BUG: Swatch color not changing with selection of different element.
When selecting individual elements in my .ai file, the swatch bar does not show the actual color. Instead, it shows the previously selected color.
Something changed - you used to be able to select an element and easily determine which color it was. This glitch is a major problem - as I'm trying to prep my files for print and a small error will be quite costly.
Instead, I have to double-click the "fill" color in the top of the swatch bar to open up the cmyk build

Select All Unused in Swatches selects colors used in Repeat objects
Repeat Objects are strange objects.
If colors are only inside a repeat object, using Select All Unused will select the swatches even when use in the repeat object.

Font explorer dropdown from the Character section in Properties panel is obscured by other panels with 2 columns of docked panels
Running 30.2.1
When the new Character panel is open and font has been selected, the panel is now so big that it becomes obscured if I open a property on the second panel, so I cannot make further font adjustments without closing the second panel.
It seems the properties panel process is selective for some properties and not for others, e.g., Transform opens in both panels, whereas Appearance does not. The UX seems inconsistent. Something feels off.

Dashed strokes with round caps and zero dash lengths (dotted dash) looks very imprecise when using Large Canvas, with GPU Preview
A 1 pt stroke with 0 dash length, when created within a large canvas file, looks chewed. When expanded, the points get baked like this.
CPU Preview shows these correct, but expanding it still creates dancing points.
Doesn’t happening in a normal canvas sized docs.Large canvas should become stable finally. So many bugs with it!

Illustrator changes text after modifying a text box with White Arrow tool
Illustrator changes text after modifying a text box with White Arrow tool. Its been happening for a few weeks. I work in a professional big corporate company and its changing my layouts after I am doing changes and it is really problematic.
This needs fixing right away. In packaging if some text is changed after I make layout changes it can have serious legal ramifications.

Illustrator slow and laggy with text
When I'm trying to edit a text box, illustrator turns very slow and laggy. With a simple text box. When I try to change font size, or writting, it takes ages to assume it. And the document turns very slow.
Please help with this issue
