Objects become locked
Objects become locked in place for no reason - no object is set to lock.

Colour values change on their own! Very frustrating
Colours keep slightly changing over time, even as I am designing live inside a file!
I will enter an exact CMYK or RGB value to match our brands colours, then these values will change slightly all on their own.
I've been monitoring this for about 2 months now hoping this issue would be resolved in an update... but it hasnt been!
This is a massive issue! Colours have to be stable!
We need to be able to trust the program with things that are vital for a brand, like their COLOURS!

Top: is the original…33 votesThis problem requires an investigation, but not enough data is gathered yet to even start it.
Please provide these settings to help the team to deal with the problem:
1. The version of illustrator. OS and GPU model
2. Your color settings (a screenshot of the Color Settings dialog will do)
3. A test file with swatches which gets changed
4. A copy of this file when changes happen (if there is a difference in actual numbers swatches store)
Also, please check if the behaviour differs when you disable GPU mode and note that.

Window auto scrolling
When opening Illustrator the file auto moves to the right at a slow pace. When hitting Shift it jumps - it only stay still if the mouse is off the application. The art won't stay steady on screen.

Gaussian Blur Effect producing different results from 24.1.3 to 24.2 or 24.2.1
The Gaussian Blur Effect "Effect→Blur→Gaussian Blur" is now behaving differently in 24.2 than it was in 21.x. Updating to 24.2.1 did not solve the issue.
The issue: A designer applies a Gaussian Blur to a vector shape and sets the desired blur level to achieve the desired effect. When that file is opened by another user using 24.2 or 24.2.1, copying and pasting the object, or toggling the visibility of the Gaussian Blur effect (in the attributes panel) on the original object will change the visual appearance of the blur (the blur noticeably increases in strength).
This alters the intended…

SVGz No longer displaying on live web pages
Hi, I have been using Svgz files for a while now but the last couple of updates for illustrator the svgz files do not work. I have never been able to view these files till they were on the server So I would make both SVG and svgz files use the SVG to visually code then add the z to the file name on the server this worked well.
The Files always generate this Error in a browser window but not once served via a correctly configured webserver

Gradient tool Illustrator 24 high sierra
The Gradient tool does not work well in Illustrator 24.0.3 using high sierra 10.13.3.
When changing anything with the annotator (color stops, angle, etc) illustartor will hang for several seconds, and nothing can be selected, so I have to wait for it to resume. Often times the gradient panel will blink continuously during this time, it's weird. It's like it's having a spasm. Everything with the gradient works fine in 22.1, so I've been using the older program when i have to use a lot of gradients. This is annoying though, to constantly switch between programs. Why would you, yet…1 vote -
Illustrator not saving 100% of the time
I'm finding Illustrator isn't saving every time I save documents, the last approx 3-4 weeks I've had to re-make approx 15 files that I had previously saved. Running Illustrator 24.2.1 + Windows 10 Pro (1903) but problem existed before this update. My co-worker is having the same issue. I've held off reporting it as I cant explain the mechanism for why it's only happening occasionally. would love a fix for this, was hoping the previous update would somehow fix it but hasn't unfortunately.

Control panel to set coordinates is missing
Before the last update I used to be able to draw a square or ellipse then type the location I wanted to place it, X or Y. Now that is gone. Now I have to open another box "TRANSFORM" in order to place the shape exactly where I wanted it. Very inconvenient. If I at least had the ability to dock that box at the top it would make life much easier. It has been at the top for as long as I can remember. I often use this like a CAD software when I draw. The last update made…
1 voteIllustrator team decided to swap the horizontal Control panel (the top bar you probably mean) with the vertical Properties panel in the default workspace.
We can choose to show it instead of Properties with Window > Control.

Illustrator not recognizing strokes from imported document using Blend Tool with specified steps
I've imported a document into build 24.3 that was previously created in the latest version of Illustrator, and strokes used in a blend of two lines using a width profile are not present. Instead, they are seen as fills, with no ability to edit the stroke.

Snap To Grid not aligns with grid
AI version 24.2.1
OS Catalina 10.15.5
When Snap to Grid is selected, the points that the pen and shape tools snap to are not on the grid. They are slightly off. It is impossible to get points exactly on the grid. I've attached a file that shows where points snap to. These shapes were drawn with Snap to Grid on.

Illustrator 24.2 tab stops not working with blank text lines
Tab stops do not function correctly when the text line has no text. We commonly use this for creating underlines. Attached examples show a text field with tab stops. The text lines with characters use the tab stops correctly (spaces do not count). Any text lines without characters cause the tab stops to be one space wide.

Scaling Issue in large canvas Illustrator 24.2.1
When designing in the large canvas mode (anything larger than 227.5416 inches) the scaling does not work properly in the transform panel. For instance, if I start a document off making the canvas 240" x 240" and I draw a rectangle that is 12" x 12" and open the transform panel and enter 200% in the width or height field, it does not scale it up to 200%. It scales it down. However, if I am in the normal canvas mode (227" x 227") the scaling works correctly. This is an issue in Illustrator 24.2.1 using macbook pro with macOS…

Text Cursor in Medium Light mode is invisible
The text cursor and the click+drag selection box are the same color as the background outside of an artboard if the User Interface is set to Medium Light mode. They are completely invisible.
