Can not "Save As" in Adobe Illustrator
I'm using macOS Sonoma 14.1 on a iMac 27-inch monitor.
After I upgraded to Sonoma I can not "Save As" any illustrator files in Illustrator 2023 or 2024. I can only save as if I open a previous file that I have saved on my hard drive before upgrading. I have made sure that I have "read/write" privileges but still no luck on saving new file unless I save it to iCloud. Has anyone had the same problem. I have researched on the web and have seen that this problem has been discussed for many years but this is the…1 vote -
Dragging Pallets from monitors with different magnifications causes problems
I have two monitors on my desktop. Both are 4K but one is set to magnification 100% and the other set to 175% for easy reading. When I run Illustrator on the 100% monitor and the pallets slip over to the 175% monitor, the pallets enlarge to 175%. Dragging them back to the 100% monitor leaves them at 175% magnification (which is much bigger than everything else).
The magnified pallet still takes up the size of the regular un-magnified pallet, but the contents are too big to work and there are no scrollbars. So the Pallet boundaries are resized, but…

Plugin menu items in Select menu appear above saved selections without a divider
Plugins can add their own menu commands in different menus.
Specifically in Select menu, they get treated weirdly.Normally, without any plugins installed, the bottom of Select menu looks fine, like this:
Save Selection...
Edit Selection...
Update Selection ← this is a new command added recently
<end of menu>When at least one saved selection is added, Ai adds a horizontal separator and list saved selection under it:
Save Selection...
Edit Selection...
Update Selection
————————————————
My Amazing Selection
<end of menu>Again, descent.
But with plugins onboard it looks like the attached image.
All plugin items are placed under the…4 votes -
Registration point and boundaries of a certain symbol jump when a document is opened
- Open the attached document (and review the steps from the GIF)
- Notice the second symbol's boundaries are giant (although the registration point is displayed within the artboard), and the Symbols panel seemingly shows nothing in its thumb
- Double click the second symbol to edit it
- The symbol opens and jumps into the middle of its giant boundaries, and the registration point moves as well
- Exit the mode
- The symbol is now displayed in its intended place, has normal boundaries, has the registration point in the same place, has a normal thumb...
- ...but if you make other changes in a doc,…

Hidden clipping mask still contributes to exported image
I had a design with two clippings mask applied to it, for layout and previewing purposes.
When time to export a final image comes, I hide the top-level smaller one, and leave the larger one at the bottom to clip my design.But when I review the exported image, I realize Illustrator removed the some elements of the design, despite me seeing them on canvas. It tool a live brush and deleted some parts of it even!
Take a look at the file attached.
1. Open it
2. Study the layer structure, notice a hidden clipping mask. Note the design…3 votes -

Tool window won't update content when clicking on a different tab
This bugs seems to come on after a while of everything working normally.
I have multiple windows (e.g. 3 - Character/Paragraph/Open type) grouped together on one panel. When I click on an unfocussed tab to bring that to the front, nothing changes. The content below remains the same.
For example if 'Character' was in focus, and I wanted to access 'Paragraph' options. If I click on the 'Paragraph' tab, I still see the 'Character' options.
See video.
This is also happening with the document tabs too. I click between my open documents and nothing changes on the artboard below.
I…

Freezing when copying object
Whenever I copy or cut an object (shapes, mostly) Illustrator freezes. Sometimes for 30+ seconds.

IgnoreWhite option no longer works in javascript bug
Illustrator v 28.0 - Image Trace option check box for Ignore White has been replaced with Ignore Color and an eyedropper option. While I think this is a good addition for manual use, it appears to have somewhat broken the ability to use image trace properly in javascript as the change has made the original "tracingOptions.ignoreWhite = true" no longer work. I suspect there is now an additional option/variable responsible for the color to be ignored's selection but it doesnt appear to be refferenced in any of the current documentation. I've tried adding the method for Abutting (also undocumented) as…

Enormément de latence
Je rencontre des problèmes avec illustrator. Mon ordinateur est équipé de Windows 10 et d'une carte graphique NVIDIA RTX A4500 à jour. Depuis la version 28.0 de l'application, celle-ci met beaucoup de temps à se lancer et lorsque cela se produit, je n'arrive pas à accéder à l'écran d'accueil où je peux choisir le type de plan de travail que je souhaite utiliser. Je suis contraint d'ouvrir directement un fichier depuis mon explorateur de fichiers, sinon l'application ne fonctionne pas. De plus, une fois que j'ai ouvert un fichier, il y a un temps de latence d'au moins 30 secondes,…

Erratic Page numbering in 'Show Print Tiling'
When printing a large artwork covering several A4s, the page numbering after selecting 'Show Print Tiling' is erratic. As you can see in the attached file, there's two times 25 and 27, but 21 and 26 are missing. This is an issue if you want to avoid printing blank pages. I have to manually count to get the correct page number.

Shift does not select multiple items any longer - Ai 28.0 / Mac OS 14.0/Mac Studio 2022
Adobe AI upgraded on my system today to Illustrator 28 - 2024. Shift no longer works to select multiple objects or points. I use illustrator about 4-8 hours a day so I am very aware of the intended capability of the shift key while working. I have rebooted to hope for a resolve .... I can't seem to regain the functionality. My previous version of Ai did not perform this way. Bummed to consider having to downgrade back to previous version of Ai. Hope this helps bring attention.

File Folder Permanent Deletion Bug
I was opening up a file, and right clicked on a folder to rename it. My finger slipped, and I clicked "move to trash" which is right next to "rename"
The folder disappeared.
Ctrl Z did not restore it
IT WAS NOT IN THE TRASH.
It was GONE.
Please investigate why files/folders are PERMANENTLY DELETED if you attempt to rename them in the open file menu and slip and hit 'move to trash' by simple mistake, or at least give a warning about PERMANENT DELETION. I am very upset to have lost a couple hours' work this way.
Edit: The…

Fill/stroke color changes won't work despite restart/Illustrator being up to date (windows 11)
On my PC with Windows 11 that's up-to-date (as is Illustrator), I've lost the ability to change fill and stroke color even when a shape is selected, and even after rebooting my laptop. Note the orange-circled areas in the screen capture for reference.

Glyphs are missing in the Glyphs panel
The glyphs don't show up when I open them. No matter which font I choose, it's always the same problem.

1. Is this working fine for other fonts? or the same behavior for all fonts?
