Files have a swatch that cannot be deleted
Please help me understand why this swatch cannot be deleted. In this case it is a Pantone swatch, but in other files it's just a global color. I have deleted all objects and links in this file to be sure it's not connected to some hidden element.
Thank you for looking. It is becoming an issue in file cleanup for clients. They all have this one odd, unremovable swatch from another project.
1 voteAs it turns out the swatch was in use by the plugin.
If the same happens to you — try to check all the symbols, graphics styles, anything like this in the document that might use the swatch.

Hyphenation ignores pre-hyphenated words
Many languages have pre-hyphenated words (like 'pre-hyphenated').
When I setup Hyphenation with Before and After values, I expect Illustrator to apply these to each part of a hyphenated word, not to the whole complex word itself, like Ai does in the picture (where the arrow is pointing). Instead, it should prefer the existing hyphen to break a line at, not just one symbol away from it. This forces users to use 'no break' often (which is hard to call) and generally spend more time on editing.
Here is a text example.
Not
pre-h
yphenated
but
pre-
hyphenated...and obviously it…

Cannot save data to cloud after folder creation
MacbookPro M1 /Ventura13.0
Illustrator 27.5Reproduction procedure
1. Create a new folder when saving data to the cloud (in this case, the folder name is "素材" in Japanese)
2. I tried to save the file to the cloud as is, but it was not saved. I tried several times, but could not save the file.
3. It was possible to save the file locally. After saving locally, it was also possible to save the file to the cloud in the "素材" folder.It would be great if the folder could be created and then saved as is.

Illustrator not copying SVG code to clipboard
After updating to v 27.5, objects that I copy and then paste into other apps are pasting as un-antialiased rasterized images. Previously, the copied data would paste as vectors into apps that accept SVG data, and antialiased transparent PNG images in other apps. To get around this I am first pasting into XD, then copying the data as SVG. It would be good to restore the original behavior of the clipboard.
1 voteAccording to the team, SVG copy/paste was disabled by default as many customers see performance issues on Windows 11 (due to clipboard recorder). It can get enabled back again in Preferences > Clipboard Handling > Include SVG Code.

Automatic hyphenation with + instead of -
Sometimes (not always), the automatic hyphenation divides the word with an "+" sign, instead of a "-" sign, which it should be. It appears with various fonts, it is NEVER reliable, sometimes I write a PDF for the customer, it has the + inside, I see it, I open the AI again and everything if fine again, without restarting anything or changing anything. Sometimes it gets not written correctly for weeks and I have to hyphenate myself, which we all know, is a drag in Illustrator.
Where is the Problem located, and how do we fix it.
- macOS 13.4, Illustrator…

Can't open specific files by double clicking icons (macOS Ventura)
ファイルアイコンをダブルクリックしてもファイルが開かないことがあります。Creative Cloud Files に置いてある .ai データで発生する事象のようですが、正常に開くファイルもあり、法則性は今のところわからないですですが、開かないファイルが置いてあるのと同一のフォルダ内にある他のファイルもことごとく開かないのでフォルダによって挙動が異なるのかもしれません。(フォルダ名やファイル名に関するエラーメッセージなどは CC アプリでは表示されていません)
開かないファイルは Creative Cloud Files からローカルデスクトップに移動またはコピーするとダブルクリックで開きます。1 vote -
There's a problem creating a NEW link to share the document after the initial link has been created.
If you open an exiting document that has been shared with a link, resave the file with a new name, make changes, then try to create a new link, you will get an error.
