  2. Locked background objects unlocking/moving when using lasso selection tool

    When I select using the LASSO tool, on screen shows the correct points have been selected, but when I then try to move just these selected points, Illustrator also moves the LOCKED background objects underneath. This error does not happen when I select using other tools. This is clearly a bug!

    How important is this to you?

    I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 26.1.0 which is available worldwide now.

    Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

    You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

    Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

  3. Exporting from AI to Jpg/PNG - Thin line at bottom of photo.

    When exporting and AI file (Logo in this case) to a JPG/PNG format from AI, each image had a thin black line at the frame of the image on the bottom. There was nothing on the artboards that would have caused this. I had to open the exported images in photoshop and remove the line manually. Image attached.

  5. Pixelated patterns appearing across top of screen

    Since updating to Illustrator 2021 I get patterns of pixels appearing at the top of my screen and moving as the mouse moves. Not sure if anyone else has this, it doesn't happen in InDesign or Photoshop.

  8. Cannot place an AI or EPS file in a new document without it looking messed up (AI 25.0)

    I've tried placing AI and EPS logo designs into a new document and the logos are distorted. (Opening original looks fine). Weird scaling of individual parts and unexpected curves. It's a mess. Have to copy paste from original, cannot use place at all.

  10. Unsauber

    Vektoren lassen sich in Illustrator 2021 nicht mehr sauber und geschmeidig ziehen, Formen lassen sich nicht passgenau verschieben.
    Sie "hopsen" mit Absätzen und können nicht mehr (wie früher in den alten Versionen) sauber und geschmeidig platziert/gezeichnet werden. Ich würde gern wieder sauber und geschmeidig mit Vektoren arbeiten. Was ist da faul?

  16. Selecting text in fields, like width/height field

    Make text/values selectable again by clicking and drawing, to ease replacing whole value or copy/paste a value. (used to work in older versions)

  17. text automatically changed to unreadable when using some cloud fonts

    Since version 2020, some time text automatically changed to unreadable when using some cloud fonts (as I only found this issue with cloud font for now)
    Need to restart program and the problem gone for a while, then came back!

    I use latest Mac OS and latest Adobe creative cloud version.

  19. Some text is missing and creating a text box will cause lag and not work

    Windows 10 Enterprise, Illustrator 2021 v 25.0
    I open an existing file authored in older versions of Illustrator. My annotations (circles with number text boxes) have no text boxes, and my text is missing in other places. But most text remains.
    I can open a new file in v 25.0 and click text tool to add text. I can't type anything. I can try to click and drag to create a text box and it lags for minutes and does not allow me to type anything. If I try it lags again.

  20. Color Theme Window isn't Expanding

    I have Windows 10 and Illustrator 2020 and 2021 installed on my desktop. When I click on Color Themes I get a narrow window that doesn't open up all the way and there is no way of trying to expand it on the sides. I can expand it horizontally, but not vertically. How can I fix this problem
