Zooming manually (on trackpad) works on and off
When I try to zoom in or out, it doesn't always work. I'm having this issue on Adobe XD in addition to Illustrator. I use my trackpad to zoom (scroll/pinch to zoom) and it works fine in all other software so I know it's not my computer.
It started within the past year and has gotten worse. I'm not sure what causes the issue, sometimes it's like that when I open the app, or sometimes it just does it mid-work session. I was using Adobe XD yesterday and noticed that dragging in an image to the artboard made zooming possible…

Sloppy GUI design
In the most recent version of Illustrator for Mac, 24.0.0, the Save as dialogue seems to be designed by a startup company for use on Windows. :) Not a big issue, but please, Adobe, move the Format drop-down menu so that it sits in line with the Save cloud document button. This hurts my eye.

Cannot copy from one layer and. paste to another....
After the latest update, copy and paste between layers is wonky. If I copy an item from one layer, it will only paste back into that layer. If I make the source layer hidden and try to paste, I get the "attempting to paste to locked/hidden layer" warning. I can select an object, then drag the small box that shows up in the layers panel to a new layer, but this is a bit awkward....
5 votesThis behavior is most probably cause by Paste Remembers Layers option, accessible in the Layers panel’s flyout menu.
When it’s enabled, Illustrator tries to paste copied objects into their original layers.
If the option it disabled, but it still does not work as you want it to, please reply back.

Illustrator 26.2.1 LAGS on EVERYTHING. Unusable.
System Version: macOS 11.6.5 (20G527)
Illustrator 26.2.1
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac18,3
Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Core i7
Processor Speed: 4.2 GHz
Number of Processors: 1
Total Number of Cores: 4
Memory: 64 GBFor no reason that I can tell, Illustrator has suddenly become totally unresponsive. I can't do ANYTHING. Even trying to resize the interface window results in a 30-second-long storm of flickering diagonal arrows cursor. No menu item can be selected without an unusably long lag.
I have reset preferences, restarted Illustrator, restarted the machine altogether, switched wifi networks, the whole shooting match. I use Illustrator…

ダイレクト選択ツールでクローズパスからセグメントコピーでプレビューに残像が残る
ダイレクト選択ツールでクローズパスからセグメントをコピーするとプレビューに残像が残ってしまいます。
過去のバージョンでは長年、このような表示やプレビューの残存はありませんでした。改善してもらえませんでしょうか?動画が50M以上はアップできなかったので下記URLをご参考ください

- クローズパスのダイレクト選択ツールでセグメントをクリックしてAlt(Option)を押したまま真横にマウスドラックでコピー
- 元のクローズパスのシェイプは固定表示されたまま、アウトライン表示でドラックしているパスをリアルタイム表示、クリックを離した瞬間選択中のパスのセグメントが抜き取られるようにコピー完了、プレビューの残像は残らない(過去のIllustratorバージョンの通常の表示を期待していた)

Copying tables from InDesign and only the text pastes in Illustrator
Hello, I used to be able to copy a table I created in InDesign and copy and paste it into Illustrator with all of the formatting being the same. Now when I go to paste a table, all of the table formatting is missing and it's just a big block of text. Please fix this soon as my company does this on a day-to-day basis for our images. I attached an image of what it looks like when I paste the table in Illustrator.
13 votesIllustrator team is working on a fix for this issue. Meanwhile you can use the below workaround to paste the table as it was before.
Before you copy the table in InDesign, create a path object along with table and then copy from InDesign and Paste in Illustrator. This forces the PDF route for copy/paste between ID and AI

preview for tif images does not change after embedding
I use Illustrator 2023 27.0 on Mac book pro with macOS Monterey Version 12.5. When placing tif images the preview shows a low resolution image (individual pixels are blurry). This should normally be corrected once the image is embedded. But in the case of tif images this does not work it stays in the preview stage even after embedding. However, when printed it shows the correct image. Therefore there seems to be a bug which does not show the correct state of tif images after embedding. This bug is specific for tif images since it does not show the same…

2. close the path using "add to shapes" in pathfinder
3 use pen tool to start a new point, the previous closed shape will reopen and join the new pointYour expected result :
using pen tool to start a new point should give a single point, not joining the previous closed shape
the closed shape should remain closed9 votes -

Problem with <use> element of SVG files
In SVG 1.0/1.1, the <use> element uses the
xlink:href
attribute to refer to objects; In SVG 2.0, the attribute was changed tohref
. Illustrator supports the former, but not the latter, content will be lost when opening such a file.Below is a simple test case (saved as a
.svg
file). There are three circles in it, the second one is referenced viaxlink:href
and the third one is referenced viahref
, opening the file in Illustrator will only see the first two.<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" width="50" height="100">
<circle cx="25" cy="20" id="circle" r="10"/>

Regression in version 27.0 - SVG tspan not handled correctly
Hello
When I place the following SVG
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" viewBox="0 0 500 500" width="500" height="500"><text><tspan>60</tspan></text></svg>
And then try to export the object back to SVG, I get
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="36.86" height="39.2" viewBox="0 0 36.86 39.2"/>
The tspan content is gone.
Without the tspan it works ok. It also works fine in AI 26.5
The example is an extract from a larger SVG object created through the Datylon plugin
Seems like an AI regression bug. Any chance it will be fixed in later versions?
Tx!
Peter

Point type alignment trouble
I have an issue with Adobe illustrator, and the online help service didn’t help me at all
Here’s the deal:
When I type in English left to right, I can align the text to the horizontal center of the artboard.
BUT when I write in Hebrew (or Arabic), right to left, using a point type, the text will not align.
If I convert to area type, or if I change orientation of the txt to left to right, the text will align fine.
So the issue happens only when writing in Hebrew or Arabic, In right to left orientation, and…

MacOS Ventura color pale
After update to macOS Ventura, file color becomes pale, like neon color becomes pale
24 votesAs stated at https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/color-difference-between-cpu-gpu-previews/m-p/13322063, this issue is a Mac-only problem for Ventura on Silicon chips.
A workaround for now is to use CPU preview or run the app using Rosetta or open as Intel or roll back to Monterey.
