  3. Make it possible again to move Text by its Anchor Point

    When Text is baseline shifted, it is no longer possible to move the Text Object by grabbing its Anchor Point, unfortunately.

    Please repair that.

  4. Pattern problem when making PDF

    Artist created an ILL file in 27.9 version, using Pattern Swatches and also used a transparency on that pattern in the art. When PDF is created and opened, I get an error:
    "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem."

    The pattern does not display at all along with this display in Acrobat.

    I did a test and replaced my version of 27.9 ILL to version 27.0. And it works perfectly. PDF does not flag an issue and RIPS properly as well.…

  7. Share for a review can't update

    When I try to update the file In Illustrator so the last changes are applied I get this message: there was an error updating the artefact. It happens occasionally but when I try second time to update mostly it works. This is the first link I cannot update for a review, I have at least 10 other jobs I share with 20 other people and they all work.

  8. Changing text case switches hyphenation on ( from off )

    Switching the text case from one case to another turns hyphenation on if it was previously set to off.

    I believe this is a new bug in v 27.9. ( today's date is Oct 5 ,2023 for the record )

    This is especially bad becuase users have been asking for hyphenation to be OFF by default. Asking for years and years. 5+ years I think.

    1. Windows 11 latest stable release

  15. All controls in Print dialog are disabled when printing a new file

    When I create a new doc, the first time I want to print with a predefined print settings, nothing appears cheeked in the window. No previsualization too.
    I must check "Finish" and reprint for having the normal window with all functionality.

  16. Window keeps resizing

    The window keeps resizing. I use Spectacle (a simple window resize tool that works with every other program). It's very handy to have shortcuts to move windows around like PCs do, but Mac doesn't support by default.

    Now when I do certain actions, the window shrinks back down to less than full size. It's very annoying and never used to happen. Please fix!

  17. Can't open file / The account you signed in with doesn't have access to this file

    "Contact the owner for more info"... But I am on the owner of the file!
    People with whom I shared for Edit can also not access.
    I created this file and saved it on the Cloud about 1 year ago. It contains all interfaces for a client's project! It's a huge issue if we cannot recover it!

    Can someone help!
    Much appreciated :-)

    Regards,

    Vh.

  18. [Illustrator 27.9] Changing the Fill Color of All Objects Becomes Impossible After Using the Gradient Tool

    After I change the color of a gradient stop several times, changing the fill color of virtually all objects becomes impossible until I restart Illustrator.

    How to reproduce the bug:

    1) Create any object with a gradient fill.

    2) Keep changing the colors of the stops.

    3) Once changing the colors becomes impossible, create a new object in either the same or a new document and try to set its fill color.

  19. Can't change the color of a gradient stop to an existing swatch

    Most infuriating Gradient Swatch forever bug. This bug has been persistent through the past several updates and I don't understand why Adobe is ignoring such an infuriating bug that should not be that hard to correct. Click on the gradient stop and select a swatch from the popup swatches palette and no effect.

  20. Blend Tool Not Distributing Spaces Correctly

    When using the blend tool and selecting the "distance between" mode, it is messing up. If I want as many steps as is possible with 3./4" gap between them, I used to be able to select blend and apply distance and the gap would remain constant at 3/4" between pieces that blended. Now, the space is being changed each time which eliminates the utility of distance between. Please fix this, it's ruining the blend mode. If this is the way you are doing it, you need to add a Distance Bertween function that calculates a constant distance between graduating elements.…
