  2. color picker - thin grey line between comparison swatches

    Today I noticed a thin grey line between the comparison color swatches on my color picker window. It puts a border between the swatches, meaning I can't directly compare their color. It's driving me nuts!

    I checked with coworkers, I'm the only one having this issue. It happens regardless of what document I'm working on. All my coworkers and myself are using the latest version of illustrator CC and are using up-to-date windows 10.

  3. BUG: Undo function now resets after ctrl. c

    Before the recent update, I could press undo to go back to a previous item, copy it (without moving or altering it in any way), and REDO all the actions over and paste that copied item but now when i just press copy, it resets so I can't redo!

  4. Asset Export

    Illustrator 2022 - When using the asset export window with one of the file types being set to SVG, the resulting SVG MAC OS finder previews show up as empty artboards. If you open them in illustrator the art is there, but way off on the canvas and I have to manually select all then align them to the center of the artboard. Very annoying. This never happened with Illustrator 2020.

  5. Cannot place or link native AI file into document if PDF compatibility is off...

    AI files cannot be placed into other AI files if PDF compatibility is off for the linked files. PDF compatibility completely negates the benefit of linked files storage savings since a complete duplicate of all artwork (included linked assets) gets embedded with the AI file - this is inefficient (at an extreme level) Illustrator should be able to place native AI files without relying on PDF and we should be able to benefit from the storage savings of linked assets.

    投稿をありがとうございました。上記にもございますように、開発に取り掛かっております。他にも同様の事象が見つかっております。


    以下に、英語ですが開発より記事の投稿がございますので、ご参照ください。

    <日本語訳>

    ご迷惑をおかけして申し訳ございません。弊社では、この問題を再現することができます。すでに製品チームにバグを記録しており、現在調査中です。


    この問題は、リンクされた画像を含むAiファイルで発生しています。保存時に「リンク先のファイルを含める」を選択し、再度開くと、Aiファイルの画像が反転したり、黄色く見えたりします。


    これを回避するために、以下の手順をお試しください。

    ●ドキュメントに画像を埋め込む

    ●「リンク先のファイルを含む」のチェックを外す

    ●旧バージョンのIllustratorにダウングレードする


    こちらをお試しいただき、うまく機能したかどうか、またお知らせをいただけますと幸いです。

    どうもありがとうございます。

  8. Insane Bloatware Devouring my RAM

    Holy **** Adobe. I am not going to be professional or even reasonable in this email because THIS IS ******* RIDICULOUS. WHY are the 30+ background programs running that are literally impossible to kill, and will launch even if they are not on the startup list!!!!! Your absolute garbage approach to managing these background tasks has essentially rendered my PC useless. I am ******* angry and honestly I want my money back for Illustrator because this is complete horse ****. How can you honestly sleep at night as a developer knowing how embarrassingly poor this software suite is set up?…

  9. "Expand Appearance" does not expand my blend tool results

    Ive created the below highlighted graphic using the line tool, then applying arrowheads. I used the blend tool to create the in-between lines but needed the lines to be individually editable. Any reason why expand appearance messes up my arrowheads?

  10. Navigation bar info in lower left gets displayed in wrong location

    I have 3 monitors.
    2 are 27" 4K resolution, and the third is a 24" XP-PEN Pen display (2560x1440), which is where Illustrator always starts and runs in full-screen.

    Illustrator apparently cannot always figure out how to calculate all its object locations, since the navigation info on the bottom bar on each file open lands UP the screen, when opening an Illustrator document and Illustrator is in Maximized mode.
    See first attached screenshot.

    If I then click the "Restore" button (upper right in any Windows app window), in effect forcing Illustrator to repaint its entire app area, then suddenly the…

  13. Bug: Export to SVG messing up illustration

    When i export an artboard or selection to svg it messes up the location of some parts of the illustration while exporting to other formats (png) works correct. I use illustrator version 26.3.1. I have like 20 other artboards with other illustrations, all messed up. Like a month ago it still worked.

    Attachment:
    header mobile@2x.png (export as png works correct)
    Screenshot of svg (Needed to make screenshot cause i cant upload an svg)

    Hopefully this will get fixed soon, or get a workaround, cause I cant deliver any products to my client now.

  14. Drawing shapes using any tool ignores colour and stroke settings

    Drawing a new shape either using the automated tools of square/ellipsis etc or when drawing when the pen tool, the stroke stays the setting of a previous setting, despite what is displaying. Likewise, the colour shows the 'correct' setting but retains the setting of a previous setting.
    I have closed Illustrator and restarted the application but it's still happening.
    Operating system: macOS Monterey version 12.4
    Adobe Illustrator version: 26.3.1

  15. Problem ingesting then reexporting SVG with transform attributes

    Take an SVG file with transform attribute which contains some translate(x,y) distance. Illustrator will open it fine, but if you re-export (save for screens), transforms are mangled and go outside the svg viewport.

    Please investigate, maybe it's worth to wipe the transform attributes completely when saving to a new SVG file?

    I attached the example SVG file. Disregard the fills, they were originally set to consume CSS-variables but Illustrator wiped them (which is another potential bug). For example, fill would be like: fill="var(--c-color-semantic-codsen-roundel-bg)".

    Thank you.

  17. "on your computer" button does not work in the "save" dialog when "creative cloud" is selected as the default location to save files

    I just updated to 26.3.1. Made a new file, sketched in it, and hit 'save".

    I was presented with the Creative Cloud dialogue. I am not a fan of keeping stuff in the cloud so I hit the "on my computer" button; nothing happened. I swore, aborted the dialogue, and tried again to the same result.

    A little further experimentation suggests that it works sometimes if I click on the button again. Weird.

    OSX 11.6.4, Big Sur.

  18. Cursor selections made within ui panels parameter fields do not respect dark mode on macos

    macOS 10.15.7
    Illustrator 26.3.1

    Selecting text or number values within ui panels in either light or dark mode, let alone any mode, should not rely on the os or allow the os to dictate textfield colors while that textfield has focus (e.g., text selection highlight color, text color, textfield background color). Instead always use just one neutral color for each regardless of the os display mode state.

    Screenshots show the selected text value (1575 px) within the Transform Panel > TextField [X pos] rendering correctly in macOS light mode and INcorrectly in dark mode.
