  3. Javacript locking embeded image

    In Illustrator 29.1 this script worked just fine. I place an image, move it, name it, lock it and embed it. But in 29.3 this code gives an error message: It says that it cannot operate on a locked layer, BUT it still locks the placed item. If I move the lock to after the embed, the lock does not happen. So this code no longer works in 29.3.

    I think its weird in 29.1 that you were allowed to lock the placeditem before you embed it, but it doesn't work if you lock it afterwards.

  4. 表示用に埋込んだ日本語OTFが表示されない

    実際の結果
    ドキュメントのDictionaryに含まれる「Embeded Font Binary Data」にはエンコードされたフォントが保存されるが、ドキュメントを開いた際に利用されない。

    いくつか検証しましたが、WesternフォントやCJKであってもTrueTypeであればプレビュー表示されます。AdobeFontに含まれる日本語フォントやモリサワのOTF等がドキュメントに含められているにも関わらず表示に利用されません。
    フォントのファミリー名やスタイル名の処理に問題があるように思います。

  5. EXPORT AS JPEG (at least) 150 dpi's option is not working properly

    PLEASE CHECK - it says 150 dpi's but the file is less. If I do the same in a previous version of illustrator, it is accepted.

  7. Let users select their own brush strokes rather than enforcing inappropriate and slow ones on them

    What if Illustrator didn't default to inappropriate brush strokes every time I attempted to use their brush? Often, I find myself working on designs that need clean vector outlines rather than a ragged brush stroke effect. Having to switch back from the ragged brush stroke every time is time-consuming and slows the software. What if we gave users the freedom to select the brush of their choice?

  8. Two finger mac trackpad zooming instead of panning randomly

    When panning with two fingers trackpad on mac, it sometimes zooms in randomly instead of panning. Not sure what the issue is because it does not happen in other apps with trackpad pan/zoom feature.

  9. Curvature Tool hotkey Shift+` (shown as Shift+~) doesn’t work with Russian keyboard input

    Ai team believes everyone uses English it feels like.
    Backtick is reported to fail to work often, but here it’s even more convoluted.
    In Russian, the key that houses backtick (`) and the tilde (~, with Shift held) types Cyrillic 'ё' and its capital from 'Ё' respectively.

    If I map Curvature Tool to just backtick — it works.
    But with Shift added, like Ai offers by default — nope.

    There is a larger request on a similar topic, Some shortcuts don't work while using non-English keyboard / language layout — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/44393445 — but perhaps the team needs to solve it…

  10. Launching Ai without the application frame places the document window behind the tool panel

    When I startup Illustrator without the application frame it often misplaces my document so it's tucked behind the tools panel — sometime it is where it is supposed to be.

  11. Export As in an action does not save parameters but uses ones from the latest export instead

    When you record 'Export As...' as an action, and use PNG format, the parameters (resolution, anti-aliasing type, background color) are not saved in the action, but are instead just picked up from the last used export.

    Is this not a big problem?
    Aren't actions supposed to be self-contained?
    If one toggles on the 'dialog' icon in the Actions panel (to let us pick settings on the fly), then it's no different from just choosing the Export As... menu item, so what's the point of the action?

  13. Changing the size of a graphic will not remain stable and does not maintain it's location point.

    I have a graphic that uses the top-left as the alignment reference point. It is on an artboard that is positioned in whole numbers (no decimals).

    I want it to be at X: 20px and Y: 20px
    I want it to be W: 700px or Y: 700px (either one not both)
    I do not want the position of X or Y to change from 20px.
    I want to maintain whole numbers

    What happens instead:
    When I resize the graphic it will not maintain a whole number and it changes the position/location of my reference point. I have snap to pixel…

  14. TIF files from Adobe Libraries are not supported

    TIF files from Adobe Libraries are not supported in Illustrator. This has been a problem for at least a year now that needs to be fixed. Unfortunately, we have had to create jpeg files and relink the graphics for all of our clients. I am unsure why that file type would not be supported.

  15. Selection tool works like the Direct Selection Tool

    I cannot use the Selection Tool because it works like the Direct Selection Tool, therefor I cannot scale or move any objects on my artboards.

    I have tried the workaround to change settings in preferences, but the problem still persists.

    I have a Windows Desktop:
    AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor
    32GB DDR4 RAM
    Radeon RX550/550 Series
    1TB SSD

  16. macがスリープしない

    Illustrator2025へのバージョンアップ以降、Illustratorがバックグラウンドで起動している状態でmacがスリープしなくなりました。
    【対象デバイス:iMac2019(macos14 Sonoma),iMac2017(macos13 Ventura)】
    同じ職場で使用している複数台が同じ現象。
    スリープにならない状態からIllustratorアプリのみ終了したところ、通常通り指定の時間でスリープに入りました。
    これまで、スリープにならない場合の対策(再起動、ソフトウェアアップデート、NVRAMやPRAMのリセットなど)をしてきましたが解決には至りませんでした。
    一方で、M1iMac2021はアプリ起動中でもスリープになります。

  17. Illustrator performance, conflict with windows 11 desktop manager process

    I was trying to rotate an image within illustrator and the performance was unusable. Trying to select then rotate was slow and unresponsive. Made no sense as my workstation has plenty of resources. 24core/512GBram/RTX 5000 ada. I did a quick google search and found a redit post suggesting exiting illustrator, find dwm.exe, end the process (explorer crashes then reloads, so does dwm.exe), restart illustrator. After performing these steps, illustrator was working like it should, responsive and useable.

    Should not have to go through this process just to get illustrator to work correctly. Need to investigate with MS what is happening…

  18. Right-click menu appears in wrong location

    Right-click menu appears far below the cursor. If clicked low enough on my secondary monitor, the menu appears on my MacBook Pro's internal monitor (arranged below my external display). Photos showing this behavior attached. Has been happening for quite a while now and driving me crazy, figured it would've been been fixed by now.

  20. Text editing issues in regular and large canvases

    1. Set the regional text to "align both ends, align the last line to the left", which aligns normally in a regular canvas, but cannot align on the right side in a large canvas.
    2. For the text in the same area, adjust the "Scale Spacing" text in the big canvas to overflow on the right. Display normally in regular canvas.
