  1. First time use of the Library bug

    Hardly worth reporting but happens consistently for me: the first time I use the Library after opening Illustrator, upon choosing what I want to place, the library panel closes (before I can complete the place command). When I open the palette again and choose the item, it works fine. That's it.

  4. Text copied from Illustrator is pasted into Keynote and other non-plain-text-apps as an image only

    In apps that use plain text, the text is pasted as text, while in apps like Keynote or Pages, the text is used as an image. The only workaround is via plain-text-Apps like TextEdit et al.

    How can this issue be solved?

  5. Rectangle’s horizontal and vertical measurements are swapped

    MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018)
    Processor: 2.6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7
    Mac OS Monterey 12.0.1 (21A559)
    Adobe Illustrator 26.0.2

    When selecting an object, like a rectangle, the horizontal and vertical measurements in the tool bar are swapped. They appear correctly in the Transform window.

    For example, a horizontal rectangle could be 7pt x 5pt, but when selected in the tool bar it shows 5 in the <--> dialog box and 7 in the vertical box.

    I have restarted my computer and restarted illustrator.
    See screen caps below.

    As per the comment:

    Illustrator allows to access dimensions of an object as well as dimensions of a live shape. In case when a shape is rotated by 90° the shape’s size values can look swapped compared to measured sizes. It’s like tilting a head. See attached images inside for clarifications.

  7. Zoom difetto

    Con l'aggiornamento del sistema operativo Mac OS 12 non si riesce ad avvicinare con lo zoom, il valore dipende dal file da 400%, si files più leggeri si arriva a 600%
    Questo tenendo la risoluzione dello schermo alla massima risoluzione mentre se si scende come risoluzione a 2k il problema non si presenta. Sia con Illustrator 2021 che con il 2022

  8. 行間値が表示されない

    環境: M1 Mac mini OS 12.1 / Illustrator 26.0.2

    内容:

    行間値が表示されなくなります。たまに治る時があります。
    テキストブロックの行間は全て同じ値にしていてもすべてのテキストボックスで行間値が非表示になります。行間を変更したときに表示されるので、それで値の確認をしています。

  9. Unembeding image to .PSD change resolution

    I noticed recently that on my new MacBookPro 16 - M1 Max on macOS 12.1 Monterey, with AI 26.0.2 when I unembed an image to .PSD format, the extracted image is resampled and the résolution is changed. Only PSD format does that. Choosing TIF is working as expected.

    This is not happening on my old MacBook running the same AI version but on macOS Catalina.

    So I don’t know where the bug is: On Monterey or in the M1Max Chip.

  10. Copying and pasting figures from graph-pad prism into AI no longer works.

    Windows 10, Current 2022 AI, Graph Pad Prism ver 9.2 current version. With previous versions of both software could easily cut and paste Figures from Prism into illustrator. now I get "operation cannot complete because of an unknown error" followed by a partial pasting of the figure.

  11. animated zoom malfunctions after placing images in illustrator

    When I place files from photoshop into illustrator, the animated zoom malfunctions. It's still turned on in the preferences, but it just doesn't work. This has been a problem for several months. It doesn't have to be a .psd file, it seems to be any format (admittedly, I haven't tried every possibility). Running os 11.6 & & Illustrator 26.0–however, this started showing up in previous versions.

    Yet another of hundreds of bugs that now plague this once great program. I'm tired of constantly using workarounds (that impede and drastically slow my workflow) to utilize illustrator. Not like it'll ever get…

  13. Text increase size turns to white block

    When I am placing a text box, once editing the text, and I try to increase it's Size atall, the fill colour Keeps turning to white on it's own so any text then appears as a weird white block — once I delete the text, part of the box glitches and stays on screen. l am also having issues in being able to use the brush tool, with it just appearing as a symbol. This makes the program unusable. It is a school account

  14. Text is Invisible - All Fonts, All Colors, Sizes, View Modes, Etc.

    Windows 10, 12GB RAM, Nvidia 850M, i7-4710HQ (Laptop) - But I have also had this issue on a beefy desktop

    Illustrator Version 26.0.2

    Recent attempts to use illustrator on my desktop and laptop have yielded an app that cannot render text in any form. I have tried every solution offered thus far -- resetting preferences, checking text fill and stroke, ensuring opacity is Normal, etc. and nothing fixes this bug. I have restarted the computer and reinstalled the program. For my work this is a program-breaking bug.

  15. 文字組みアキ量設定の読み込みで名称に「コピー」が付与される

    Illustrator Ver.26.0.2の、文字組みアキ量設定の読み込みに関する不具合です。

    1. 任意名称で文字組みアキ量設定を作成する
    2. 書き出しを使ってmjkファイルを書き出す
    3. 2のファイルを別のファイルで読み込みする

    この結果として、元の名称のまま読み込まれるのではなく、「●● コピー」（●●は元名称）と、必ず「コピー」が付きます。

    Windows 11および、macOS 12.1環境いずれでも発生する問題となっています。

  17. Rotate polygon with 3 sides (triangle)

    (A) If I create a polygon with only 3 sides (triangle), then it has a centre that corresponds to a circle around the triangle.
    (B) If I rotate the triangle by 90° with the Rotate tool, the centre of the circumcircle is used. That is correct.

    (C) If I rotate the same triangle by 90° with the menu command "Object > Transform > Rotate", then suddenly the centre of the bounding box is used as the centre of rotation. This is wrong in my eyes. Also, this new centre point remains.

  18. Export for Screens not updating Artboard titles

    I've been copy/pasting my artboards and renaming them to save time.

    I've noticed though that Export for Screens doesn't always update the artboard name, despite the artboard name being changed.

    I've seen this bug a few times now.
