Extrude on the 3D Materials panel is inaccurate.
The extrude function does not extrude by the amount I type in.
It used to work on my desktop but never on my laptop and now it works on neither. It extrudes but by less than a third of whatever I type in. Don't know why this happens or why its started doing it on my desktop too.I find it eliminates the usefulness of the whole 3D Materials panel.

The Illustrator was not responding every time I tend to save new file
Once I open Illustrator, it functions smoothly. I can open and save a copy of an existing files without any problems. However, when I click 'New File' and attempt to save it, the program consistently crashes with and became unresponsive.
I tried saving the recovered file, but it also hangs and 'not responding' when I click 'Save' in the File menu. I even restarted my computer to see if that would resolve the issue, but I'm still unable to save a new file.
I hope you can assist me with this problem.

CPU Preview Forced when Apple Wide Color images placed
Bug:
- Place a linked image into an illustrator file that has a color profile of "Apple Wide Color Sharing Profile"

Why the the FONT i used are NOT LONGER AVALIABLE in Adobe premiere pro?
Hi Adobe community, a few weeks ago I updated a new Adobe Premiere version and since then the font I was using has changed and I can no longer find it among those available. The fonts I need are: Algerian, BlackadderlITC-Regual, Garamond-Italic, Onyx. I try to find these fonts as if they were extensions from the official Adobe page but I couldn't find the Algerian font in this way either... Can anyone help me or give me advice? Thanks a lot!

Tip popup when zooming in and out (Alt key while brush is selected)
Whenever I zoom in and out using Alt + scroll wheel or a shortcut on my Wacom pencil, and have a Pencil or Brush selected, the smoothing tool pops up and gives this 'tip' that is obstructing my work. Turning tool tips off does not help.
'To smooth a section, select its anchor points with the direct selection tool and adjust the slider.'
It is really annoying, I'm not trying even trying to smooth the paths, just zooming! The tip stays on screen until I do something else, and pops back up whenever I hit alt. I know how the…

[ExtendScript] Rasterizing group creates two rasterItems
- MacOS 15.2.
- Adobe Illustrator 29.1
- Open demo document (attached) and run script (below).
- Should create one RasterItem, but instead creates two.
Test Script (for use on attached test file):
…(function () { var doc = app.activeDocument; var item = doc.groupItems[0]; // Raster Options var rasterOpts = new RasterizeOptions; rasterOpts.resolution = 192; rasterOpts.antiAliasingMethod = AntiAliasingMethod.None; rasterOpts.backgroundBlack = false; rasterOpts.clippingMask = false; rasterOpts.colorModel = RasterizationColorModel.DEFAULTCOLORMODEL; rasterOpts.convertTextToOutlines = false; rasterOpts.includeLayers = false; rasterOpts.padding = 0; rasterOpts.transparency = false; rasterOpts.convertSpotColors = true; doc.rasterize(item, item.geometricBounds, rasterOpts); var count = doc.rasterItems.length; if (count > 1) alert('The rasterization created two images but should have created only one.');

Now the Space Bar Doesn't Work for Text in Mac Sequoia
Every time I launch AI on a Mac Sequoia OS, something in AI will not work right. This morning, the spacebar no longer adds space between words in text. What's so frustrating is you never know what shortcut/tool will fail when using Adobe products in Mac Sequoia OS. Please fix these problems. Thank you.

Some shortcuts don't work with Mac Sequoia 15.2 OS
The spacebar does not resize something when drawing. Instead it brings up the properties box and sounds an error alarm on the Mac Mini Pro M4. Additionally, the keyboard shortcuts, such as M or H, stop working mid program. The up/down keys don't change the number of sides while drawing a polygon. I'm running version 29.1 I've already disabled any spacebar shortcuts native to the OS. Even running in safe mode, Adobe creative cloud programs have incompatible shortcuts with Mac Sequoia.

Cursor/mouse glitching/flickering when moving around artboard/objects
Any time I go to make an edit, add an element, move an object, or move my cursor around over my content/artboard my cursor glitches and rapidly switches between tool symbols. I am still able to use illustrator and each tool performs how its supposed to however the cursor glitching is troubling when making adjustments/resizing things. I have restarted my computer and quit the application as well and nothing seems to work. I am using Illustrator 2025.

Unidentified dash / gap values get shown as zeroes
Make a simple test (as demonstrated in the attached GIF).
Make sure you test this after relaunching Illustrator.
Open Preferences > Units and make sure you have all three parameters (General, Stroke, Type) set to Points.A. Create a new document based on Web document profile
B. Create a simple rectangle
C. In the Stroke panel enable Dashed Line optionThe first 'dash' value would be 12 pt (or somethin else if you general units are not points), and the rest of the fields would be empty, undefined. It means Illustrator uses the same 12 pt for the gap.
D.…

When using Adobe illustrator, the software crashes for a short amount of time and will redirect you in browser to the website of the learn and support of adobe. It makes the workflow slow, and its frustrating at the same time.

Appearance items loose focus when get an effect assigned
When I pick a fill in Appearance panel and assign an effect to it, the item looses focus suddenly — take a look at the GIF attached.
If my stack there is complex enough (and they often are), it’s hard to locate the fill/stroke I was working with.
...and surely Ai doesn’t allow to rename these to at least find them quicker — and here is the request about this: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/34309852
