1. 2025 (29.0.1) is giving tons of errors on preview.

   I have a file with some simple multi-gradient appearance stacks that constantly throws two errors every time I load it, and every time I switch outline mode on and off. Also the document is marked as modified the instant I load it.

   Works fine on 2023. Dunno how it works on 2024, I never switched to that one. Constantly complains on 2025.

   This is happening in CPU preview mode, I would check if it's happening in GPU mode as well but I deleted 2025 before thinking about that detail.

   Uservoice isn't letting me upload this file so I've posted it on my own site: http://egypt.urnash.com/media/blogs.dir/1/files/2024/11/IABD-Unknown-Error-Sample.zip - ~7m zip of an Illustrator file.

   The two errors, in order, are:

   "The outline cannot complete because of an unknown error [IABD]"

   followed by

   “An error occurred while processing the appearance of an object”.

4. Banding and fragmentation of color gradients in Illustrator

   In an old Illustrator CS6 vector, the gradients became banded and fragmented when I opened them in the newer Illustrator. I layered the gradients with the screen blending mode. I used to have no problems with this vector file, but the problem appeared in my new Illustrator (29.1). What the problem could be?

6. Hand tool is getting stuck in 29.1, massive performance issues

   Since yesterday Illustrator has virtually become unusable to me and I have no idea what happened. I didn't install any new apps.

   The issue is seems to be focused around using spacebar to pan around my document. It gets stuck on the hand tool and the pan itself is laggy. When using the middle button on my mouse, the pan works perfectly though.

   Left clicking on elements and manipulating them is an unsurmountable task with these issues, effectively making Illustrator unusable to me now...

   I really hope someone else is also experiencing this, but I haven't been able to find any resources.

   I tried everything. Restart my Mac. Reinstall Illustrator. Tried older versions. All the same...

7. Undo Release Clipping Mask Does Nothing

   I recently noticed that if I unclip an object, by accident or necessity, that I cannot undo the step either through the menu Undo or Command key Undo.

   I can clip and Command-Z to unclip.
   I can manually unclip and Command-Z to reclip.
   If I clip, I Command-z to unclip and then Command + Option + Z to redo my last action and it will properly clip.

   But if I just manually unclip, and then use the Undo command to reclip it like it was? It doesn't work. Nothing happens and it moves on in the history.

9. 29.1.0 'Isolate selected group' menu item missing on right click menu when a nested group is selected.

   Illustrator version 29.1.0
   Windows 10.0.19045

   To replicate:

   1. Create group that contains a group
   2. Select group
   3. Right click the group
   4. 'Isolate selected group' menu item missing. In its place is the new 'Ungroup all' item.

   When the above actions are performed to a group without a nested group, the 'Isolate selected group' menu item appears as it should.

    Illustrator doesn't export stroke applied to a text element, it shows without the stroke. It only worked when stroke is outlined. Does anyone knows a way to fix it?

11. Contextual Task Bar Preventing Artboard Creation

12. Significant Performace Issues after Updating to V29.1

    I'm having significant issues using Illustrator 25 v29.1 and it's very frustrating as I'm using the program for work related activities. Any time I try to alt+drag and artboard to copy it, I get the spinning wheel of death on my Macbook Pro. Even if I try to Command+C and Command+V paste the artboard, I have the same issue. And when I look at how much memory is being used, it's not alot so I don't undertand what is happening. I've reset preferences, restarted the application, restarted the program and still have the same issue. Whereas a file of the same size in Illustrator 2024, I had no issues previously.

15. Illustrator 29.1 Can't Import AI Files From Other Apps

    I posted something about this in the Illustrator user forums earlier today. I've been dealing with a bug present in the Illustrator 29.1 update that was pushed to users this morning. This new version cannot open AI files exported by rival graphics applications if the AI file contains any live text objects. If the artwork is all raw vectors, even with complex fills, it opens fine. Any live text makes it a no-go.

    When attempting to open the AI file containing text objects this message is displayed:
    "Illustrator could partially read this file. We recovered as much of the file as possible, but some content might be missing. Open to view the recovered file."

    When the file is opened there is no content, just an empty placement box.

    Rebooting, resetting Illustrator preferences, doing disk cleanup, etc made no difference. The problem still persists.

    The only solution appears to be installing a previous build of Illustrator and opening the exported AI files there.

    I first encountered the problem on my desktop PC at work (running Win 11 Pro). Then I checked my home setup (an Alienware notebook still running Win 10 Pro). Sure enough, after the patch for Illustrator 29.1 applied it would no longer open AI files made by other applications if the files contained text objects. The latest Beta build is also affected by the same problem.

    This might not seem like an important issue, but it is pretty common to handle art files made by customers or by co-workers who are using other rival design applications (such as CorelDRAW).

    I also tested whether any plugins, such as those from Astute Graphics, could be contributing to the issue. Removing all the plugins and even resetting preferences afterward didn't make any difference.

    Help Bar is available only in the latest Beta (starting with 29.2) and Prerelease builds so far. As soon as the team decides it’s ready to be pushed into main build, you’ll be able to get it. At the moment you can install Beta build from CCD app, or just wait.

18. Star shape expand not working in 2025 update

    Illustrator 29 (2025 update) on Mac - The live shapes are great, and I was able to create a cog, but I can't expand the shape like in the previous versions, and the corners stay "live." In properties panel, I click on "Expand Shape" but the shape stays editable as if it's still "live" - see screenshots attached.

19. Font changes from the current one to the previously used while typing

    I'm working on a document in which I used Avenir font, but for the most I use Myriad Pro. When I click with the Type tool I see in the character box I'm with the default font (Myriad Pro) and start typing. Then noticed I'm now in Avenir font!
    This bug is brand new with the latest update (29.1), I didn't add any issue of that type before.

    The team plans to push the fix from the Beta build into the main one in first week of January — hooray!

    The current workaround in 29.1 is to disable Missing Glyph Protection option in Preferences > Type.

20. The "color spectrum" in Color panel always shrinking to the minimal size and it is very annoying.

    Every time I open Adobe Illustrator, the "color spectrum" in color panel always shrinking to the minimal size. Could you please make it not change according to the size the user wants. I usually need the "color spectrum" to be full size (maximum size). That would really help us designer a lot. Thanks, Adobe team.
