1. Object extruded in perspective with 3D and Materials renders with split non-matching tiles

   I just want to know what is happening with the messed up preview. I get a correct preview when moving a slider but a FUBAR one when released.

2. Center Vertical Alignment for Area Type becomes Top when Every-Line composer is used

   Take a look at the GIF attached.
   When vertical alignment is set to Center, it works only for Single-line composer. When Every-line composer gets chosen, the alignment becomes Top instead.

   And please rename the option finally — it should be VERTICAL alignment, not horizontal: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/45711817

3. In "recolor artwork" when I select a "user defined" color palette, it lets me chose it, but will not use those colors.

   In "recolor artwork", when I select a "user defined" color palette, it lets me chose that palette, but will not use those colors in the recoloring options. For instance, I can select the color palette, but when I go to randomly change the color order, it does not use those colors, it only uses the colors that are already in the artwork.

   In previous versions, once I selected the "user defined" colors, that selection of swatch colors would appear in the "Swatch group" side panel. That no longer happens. And as stated before, just doesn't work in general.

4. Corrupt clipboard image view

   Images pasted from the clipboard that are embedded in tif format become corrupted. When working with an embedded image from the clipboard, after a while, when moving an element or zooming in or out, the image becomes corrupted, rendering it unusable and unrecoverable. The images usually end up as shown in the screenshot. This has happened to me several times.

   I'm working on a 2023 Macbook Pro M2 Max with 32GB RAM and macOS Sequoia 15.4.1 using Adobe Illustrator 29.5

5. アートボード左上の角に丸が表示される ／ Brush tip shape appears in top-left corner of the artboard

   再現手順
   1. Illustratorを起動して新規ドキュメントを作成する
   2. ブラシパネルでカリグラフィブラシのサムネイルをクリックする
   3. アートボードの左上の角を確認すると、ブラシの先端形状の丸が表示される

   回避策
   - ブラシツールに切り替えてからカリグラフィブラシのサムネイルをクリックすると丸は表示されない
   - 丸が表示された後でも、ブラシツールに切り替えると消える

   一度でもブラシツールに切り替えれば、その後はIllustratorを終了するまで、新たな別のドキュメントを作成してもこの丸は出現しません。

   • MacOS14（Sonoma）+Illustrator2025（29.5）で確認
   • Windowsでも同様の手順で再現するそう
   • これまで再現条件が分からず報告出来なかったが、2022年の時点で既に発生しており、現在まで改善されないままである

   表示が煩わしいのみで特に大きな実害はありませんが、さらに古いバージョンでは発生しなかった不具合です。できるだけ早い解消が望まれます。

   ---

   Steps to reproduce:

   1. Create a new document in Illustrator.
   2. In the Brushes panel, click a Calligraphic Brush thumbnail.
   3. A round shape appears in the top-left corner of the artboard.

   Workaround:
   - Switching to the Brush Tool before clicking the brush prevents this.
   - Switching to the Brush Tool after the shape appears will remove it.

   After switching to the Brush Tool once, it won’t appear again during the session.

   Notes:
   - Reproduced on macOS 14 (Sonoma) + Illustrator 2025 (v29.5).
   - Also confirmed on Windows.
   - This bug has existed since at least 2022 but was hard to report due to unclear steps.

   It's not harmful, but it didn’t happen in older versions and can be distracting.
   → Hoping for a fix!

6. Copying selection in Layers panel no longer works

   Illustrator 29.5.1 on Mac Mini M4 running Sequoia 15.4.1: Dragging the colored square in the Layers panel from one layer to another with the Option key pressed no longer copies the selection to the new layer. It just moves it to the new layer.

7. When selecting all objects, there will be very severe lag, and even software crashes.

   When I select all the objects, if there are many objects, it will cause the software to crash.

8. CMYK-Werte im Farbwähler werden nach „Ohne Farbe“ in RGB umgewandelt – trotz CMYK-Dokument

   Ich arbeite in einem Illustrator-Dokument im CMYK-Farbmodus. Wenn ich die Flächenfarbe eines Objekts auf „Ohne Farbe“ setze und danach über den Farbwähler neue CMYK-Werte eingebe, wandelt Illustrator diese automatisch in RGB-Farben um – obwohl das Dokument und die Farbeinstellungen vollständig auf CMYK eingestellt sind.
   Das Problem tritt seit Kurzem in allen neuen und bestehenden Dateien auf, auch nach Zurücksetzen der Voreinstellungen und Neuinstallation.
   Der Fehler lässt sich jederzeit reproduzieren:
   Neues CMYK-Dokument erstellen
   Objekt zeichnen, Fläche auf „Ohne Farbe“ setzen
   Über Farbwähler CMYK-Wert eingeben
   Illustrator wandelt die Eingabe in RGB um
   Das Verhalten widerspricht dem erwarteten Verhalten in einem CMYK-Dokument und wirkt wie ein anhaltender Bug.

   Betriebssystem: macOS Sequoia 15.4.1
   Illustrator-Version: 29.5.1
   Farbprofil: CMYK: Coated FOGRA39 (ISO 12647-2:2004)
   GPU/CPU-Vorschau getestet? Ja!

9. Fonts changing in files when opened in Illustrator 29.5.1

   Existing files created in illustrator (on a different desktop) when opened in v29.5 & v29.5.1 display incorrect fonts - the font is changed to a completely different font (e.g. Myriad Pro will be changed to Times New Roman) throughout the document. All the text in that font family is changed, but other fonts used in the document will display correctly. The font is installed correctly on the system and the changed font can be changed to the correct font by selecting the font from the illustrator font list. The thumbnails display correctly in Bridge before opening in illustrator. Reverting illustrator back to v29.4 resolves the problem

   This fix is included in Illustrator v29.8.2.

   
   

   If you reopen files that were not saved while the font change issue was present, the problem should no longer occur.

   
   

   Please let us know if you continue to experience the issue in any new files created with v29.8.2.

10. Illustrator Paths Automatically Filled Black Despite No Color Selection

    In the past few days Illustrator has given me trouble: as you can see in the picture i get a black filling on any path I create even if no color is selected!

    I have just uninstalled and re-downloaded the illustrator app from my creative cloud (version 29.3.1) but it didn't solve the problem.

    I can't work this way.
    Any suggestions?

11. Creating and/or Entering Opacity Mask doesn’t work from Properties / Control panels

    When clicking on the Opacity popu-up panel (in Control or Properties) and then clicking on the mask thumbnail to activate that mode, the thumbnail highlights but as soon as I attempt to edit the contents of the mask, it shows that the mode is not activated. Only if I select the 'Clip' checkbox in the Opacity panel will it allow me to edit the mask. But then clicking the 'Object' thumbnail in the Opacity panel, similarly does not exit mask-editing mode. I have to uncheck the 'Clip' checkbox to get back to normal mode. Previously, simply clicking on each thumbnail would easily switch between mask mode and normal editing mode.

12. Allow to change scale and precision, show/hide units for existing dimensions

    Once dimension is created, we can’t change some parameters of it: scale, precision, units displayed.
    We can open Dimension Tool Options and change these for NEW dimensions, but both Properties and Control don’t allow to modify existing ones.

    The only thing we can do is change these parameters, create a new dimension and then hit 'Apply to all' button in Quick Actions section in Properties (which should be a menu command as well: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49010378) — but what if we don’t need to change ALL the dimensions, but only some?
    Another thing is to delete a dimension and recreated it (but what if I have hundreds of these on canvas already?)

13. Advanced Options Missing in Recolor Artwork Panel with UI Scaling

    Bug Description:
    When the UI is scaled up , the advanced options in the "Recolor Artwork" panel become inaccessible. This happens because the panel becomes too large, causing the advanced options at the bottom to be cut off. Additionally, the absence of a scroll bar prevents users from navigating to the hidden section.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    Open Adobe software (e.g., Illustrator).

    Access the "Recolor Artwork" feature.

    Use the software on a high UI scaling factor.

    Notice that the advanced options at the bottom of the panel are not displayed and cannot be accessed due to the missing scroll bar.

    Expected Result:
    The panel should either automatically adjust its size to fit the screen or provide a scroll bar, allowing users to access all options.

17. Recolor window appears out of frame when in isolation mode

    When in isolation mode, the top of the Recolor window is out of frame, so I can't move it. Unfortunately, it pops up right over the artwork, so I can't use it.

    I tried moving the panel when not in isolation mode, but it still pops up over the artwork and out of frame in isolation mode.

18. Custom art brush results in way too many anchor points when expanded

    As reported here by Peachtears13: https://www.reddit.com/r/AdobeIllustrator/comments/1kei4zn/custom_art_brush_results_in_way_too_many_anchor/

    Having a simple path (with minimum amount of points), applying a simple art brush (with minimum amount of points), and then expanding it gives a ton of extra points, hardly needed to define resulting shapes.

    It worked MUCH better in CS4... and then became much worse in CS6 (or perhaps in CS5) — take a look at the images attached.

    Yes, there are tools to deal with the mess afterwards: native Simplify, plugin VectorFirstAid... but it should not be like this in the first place.

    And please, do not 'solve' it by throwing in another hidden Simplify like you did to deal with Variable Strokes!!! This leads to loosing symmetrical point pairs across the stroke, it makes it work slower while editing! Just do better math, optimize each cluster but keep their edge-points intact! Look at the CS4 again, dust off from some old code!

19. Can’t place an object between unfurled groups in Layers

    If you have two groups unfurled in Layers — good luck in positioning an object between them in Layers. Any spot you drop it in will move it into either group, like the first attached GIF shows.

    And if the object is originally within a group, you’d have to move it outside first, collapse both groups and only then put it in-between... when you have a complex layer structure it can be very painful.

    Unlike in Photoshop (GIF 2), Send Backwards / Send to Back won’t move the object outside of the group, and dragging the layer to the left side of the tree doesn’t work s well — in Photoshop it just works, in Illustrator we get the 'forbidden' cursor.

20. Applescript—cannot save Illustrator file if embedding ICC profiles

    This is a bug, as verified by this post (https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/there-is-a-problem-with-saving-as-illustrator-using-applescript/m-p/15287552) and this post (https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/applescript-cannot-embed-icc-profiles-in-illustrator-save-options/m-p/15032019#M429674). I cannot save an Illustrator file as part of an AppleScript if ICC profiles are being embedded. This is a problem because I can no longer use my Applescripts for creating versions of logo files.

    The following code will fail with the error "Cannot get document 1". The error occurs when the save command’s with options parameter is a record containing a embed icc profile property.

    save document 1 in filePath as Illustrator with options {embed icc profile:true}
    I have verified that a) the ICC profile was already embedded in the source document, and that if I save the file via the GUI, checking the box to save the ICC profile works. Using AppleScript to save the Illustrator file does not retain the ICC profile.

    This fails on macOS 14.5 and Illustrator 27.x and 28.5. It also fails on macOS 15.4 and Illustrator 29.5.0. It also fails on macOS 15.3.2 and Illustrator 28.7.6 and 29.5.

    According to another user, JavaScript works properly. However, JavaScript is not a workaround for me.
    var d = app.documents[0];

    var saveOptions = new IllustratorSaveOptions();
    saveOptions.flattenOutput = OutputFlattening.PRESERVEAPPEARANCE;
    saveOptions.embedICCProfile = true;

    d.saveAs(new File('~/testjs.ai'), saveOptions);

    Please help -- I need to be able to save an Illustrator file with AppleScript, that has an embedded ICC profile.
