  1. Transform > Mirror does not work properly

    Illustrator Version 25.0.1 german (Funktion SPIEGELN)

    Sometimes if i use many time the mirroring function this mistake comes

    An object is mirrored, (Funktion SPIEGELN in german) axis VERTICAL.

    The object is copied, mirrored again and he remembers the last setting and is mirrored again on the VERTICAL axis.

    Then suddenly in between he suggests the ANGLE axis.

    This problem happens after using many times this function mirror, and not evray time very strange.

    I never saw anything like this in the old versions.

    I work with Illustrator all day and something like that is for me noticeable.

  2. Dimensions (globally) do not display accurately after recent update to v25.0.1 - CRITICAL ERROR

    I'm experiencing a critical issue that has me halted on a current project. This occurred after recently updating Illustrator to 25.0.1. I've been working on a file with precise dimensions for all shapes and lines, and suddenly dimensions for all shapes and lines are globally incorrect (or are displaying as such). After typing in exact dimensions for creating a rectangle with the rectangle tool, a "10 mm x 10 mm" square becomes "10.1764 mm x 10.1764 mm". This is a critical error, and has halted me from continued work on my current project. Expedited help is greatly appreciated.

    Update: I…

  5. ACTION FAILURE!!

    modify the action:
    If you create an action to save for web with PNG file, Illustrator don't override the save command and nche the action take the same name of the file in the action.

    try to open 5 or 6 files and create the action:
    New action > save for web > save (and stop action)
    Now use it on the other opened files...

    If you have more and more files like me and your client ask you to export the file only in png it's impossible to use this action!

    The only way is to save files one…

  12. Bottom docked panel gets collapsed when toggling Full Screen Mode

    Bottom panel (Currently Layers or Artboards) disappears in Full Screen mode. Opening manually from Window > Layers or hotkey (F7) does not work. Will also disappear when a panel directly above is selected. Need to select the panel at top of stack to make the bottommost panel appear.

  14. Illustrator not opening Fusion 360 DXFs after 25.0.1

    The primary reason I use Illustrator (on my Intel Mac running Big Sur) is to further process the DXFs generated by Fusion 360 and prepare them for laser cutting. Recently, illustrator started opening these files as blank, even though online viewers display them just fine. According to internet research, this should have been fixed in version 25.0.1. However, after updating and reinstalling illustrator the issue persists. This is incredibly frustrating as my laser has been unused for a number of weeks as I can’t prepare files. Please fix!

  15. Accessible title is ignored when opening or exporting an SVG

    When an SVG document with a <title> element is opened, the title appears to be silently dropped. I don't see it in the Document Title of the File Properties nor in any layer. Moreover, when a Document Title is provided in the File Properties no <title> element is created in the SVG export. This is a significant barrier to creating accessible content for a file type that is becoming ubiquitous on the web. Yes, a title can be entered separately in a text editor after export, but such a requirement unnecessarily adds significant fragility to the process of creating/editing accessible…

  17. Memory Error when using alt key to duplicate or pull from libraries

    I am using windows 10 on a pc. This is in regards to adobe 2021

    When I go to duplicate an object using the alt key, I get an error message saying I do not have enough memory to complete the action. I also can't use the alt key to drag things from my libraries. I do not get this message when I use ctrl C and ctrl V. I also do not get this message if I right-click on the items in my library and place them. It's only when I use the alt key function.

  18. Pattern Seam issues with Adobe Capture patterns

    when using adobe capture patterns there is a transparent seam in the pattern, I am able to remove the seam by change the width of the pattern but its only a temporary fix as soon as I change the pattern the seam comes back. This issue only seams to happen in illustrator, because when I use the same patterns in photoshop there is no gap between patterns

    Steps to replicate:

    1. use adobe capture to create a pattern.
    2. create a shape in illustrator
    3. open the libraries tab and insert the pattern
      where lines/ spaces appear in-between the pattern

    4. go to pattern…

  19. Contents of CC Libraries panel shrinks when Cmd +/- used

    The panel with all the swatches and assets I have saved will suddenly shrink as if I hit Cmd +/-. This mainly happens in illustrator but has happened in InDesign and Photoshop as well. Then I wont be able to click into or out of the libraries tab or accurately select what I want in the library as well.

  20. Emoji Baseline issues

    Using macOS Big Sur with Illustrator 25.0.1

    Anytime I use emojis on Illustrator, a portion of the emoji below the baseline gets cut off. When I zoom out, it looks normal again. I haven't had this issue before. Even on export, a chunk at the bottom of the emoji still gets cut off.
