  2. Font weight lost in SVG export

    When exporting to SVG the code seems to have lost the font weight atribute. We are exporting in bold and the old epxort used to include the code font-weight="700". The new code has ommited the font weight.

  3. Cursor won’t change when a tool is picked using keyboard shortcuts

    Selected tool icons do not change when using keyboard shortcuts. For example: zooming in (Z) and then selecting Direct Selection (A) keeps the zoom icon, which is disconcerting to say the least. You're not sure you've selected the correct tool, or have to click the mouse to make sure (doing so resets the icon to the correct tool).

    I've noticed it on 26.5. I rolled-back to 26.4.1 and experienced it there too. I'm running a new MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021), Apple M1 Max chip 32 GB.

    I've attached screenshots of various tools that fail to switch.

  4. Share for Review Greyed Out

    I used Share for Review in Beta a number of times successfully last week on a few proofs but I just opened a file to use it again and the feature is now greyed out, as is the option to open a window for "Comments".

    I have reverted back to the regular Illustrator to continue using this feature but preferred the Beta, as the regular version requires you to upload the file and assets to CC cloud and the proof quality is terrible. The Beta, when it was working, was more consistent with how the feature works in InDesign but…

  5. File overwrites without warning when exporting to PNG

    When you Export a file as a PNG, check the "Use Artboards" and select a specific artboard, Illustrator overwrites your file without warning. This is not consistent with exporting to SVG.

  7. Cutting a line with Scissors tool then resizing it works wrong

    1: Windows.
    2: 2022 26.5.0.
    3: Cutting a line using the Scissors tool then resizing it using the handles.
    4: Expected to be able to grab the handle at the newly cut end and re-size the line from there accordingly. However as soon as I do this Illustrator reduces the size of the line by approx 50%, often meaning the handle that I have hold of is off the screen. Have to let go of handle, go and find it again and drag the line back to where it originally ended after being cut. Very annoying.

  12. Issues with drawing inside a vector with freeform gradient

    Operating system: MacOS Monterey
    Illustrator version: 26.5

    When I try to draw inside a vector I made, the colour of the vector changes and I was advised in the Adobe forum that this is likely a bug with the freeform gradient.

    Here's what I've done:

    I have created a vector with a freeform gradient.

    I press the vector and choose draw inside.

    I click outside the vector.

    I choose the brush tool and change to the colour I want.

    I draw inside the vector.

    The colour of the vector changes.

    I have also recorded a video so that you can…

  13. On Opening, Illustrator can't read linked files and adds multiple copies of linked images

    On some files, on open, I receive an error regarding linked images and when trying to resolve, Illustrator adds multiple copies of the same linked image without actually fixing the original images. It'll add linked images into locked layers where there were no images.

    This started in version 26.4.1 and have tested with uninstalling newer versions, opening the same files on older versions, and installing newer versions until the issue appears.

    Screenshots attached where it shows it adding in linked images, even on layers that were locked and had no images on save.

  14. 線幅を変えると矢印から線がはみ出る

    ver26.5(最新)。Windows10使用。

    線幅を変えるとパスの終点の矢印から線がはみ出る。

    例えば、線幅17に対し、終点を30%などにすると矢印から線の端がはみ出てしまう。

    矢印11、12、13、14が該当。
    ならないのもありしたが、全部調べていないので、他の矢印もそうなるかもしれません。

  16. Slow performance / undesirable switch to CPU preview

    Operating system: macOS Catalina 10.15.7
    Illustrator: 26.5

    When turning on rulers or editing the artboard, Illustrator switches to CPU preview, which is very slow.

    After closing and reopening the file, the gpu preview is active. (If i don't save the file with rulers turned on)

  17. Area Type Options: Align is mislabeled. Should say "vertical", not "horizontal"

    This UI option is mislabeled. It controls the vertical alignment of the text in a frame, not the horizontal alignment.

  19. Repeat object has no indication of selection when bounding box is off

    Repeats is broken right from the start and you are not even planning to improve it... OK, not improve it, but just to make stable, as it was supposed to be.

    Here in the GIF, I have Bounding Box turned on, and it seems it works OK.

    Then I disable bounding box (which is normal for me and a lot of other users). Again — AI allows to turn if OFF, and everything works without it just FINE — except for Repeats and area type text (but this is another tale).

    Now, when I select both objects, the repeat object…

  20. Clipping mask for a layer doesn’t move when dragged in real-time render mode

    If you move art with its layer-level clipping mask, Ai will draw it as if you move the art without the clipping mask. See the GIF attached.
