  2. can't open new file or work on the app at all.

    I just downloaded Illustrator 2020 on my PC. The PC is a little old but has all the required specs to run the program. However whenever I open Illustrator and try to open a new file (after selecting my preferences page size etc) nothing pops up I still see the "welcome to Illustrator" home page but can still select the tools and see the blank artboards I just created however nothing gets applied to them visually but if I throw in a big black triangle I see it only on the thumbnail from the Layers panel which is obviously too…

  3. BUG - perspective grid - ground plane widgets disappear

    The Left and Right ground level widgets DISAPPEAR when the vanishing points are adjusted moderately far apart. There seems to be no way to make them visible again, which makes it hard to move the entire perspective grid to another location.

  4. BUG - perspective grid planes disappear permanently

    If the grid cell size is adjusted -- while some planes are turned off (with temporary SHIFT-hide function) -- the hidden planes cannot be made to reappear.

    1. Select Left plane. Hover grid tool over an intersection in Left plane.

    2. Press SHIFT. The right and ground planes disappear.

    3. Adjust cell size with diamond widget.

    4. Now try to make right plane or ground plane visible again -- gone forever.

    This bug seriously interferes with using the Perspective Grid tools.

  6. Transform pattern only: setting height/width to 0 crashes Illustrator

    If you select "transform pattern only" option in Transform panel and (accidentally) set height or weight to 0 (mm in my case), then Illustrator crashes.

  8. printing

    Mac OS 10.15.6
    Illustrator 24.2.3
    I used to be able to print from Illustrator using my Epson L3150 printer.
    It no longer prints. I used Default printing preset of Illustrator, then used default copy, then used custom. I checked and unchecked settings in advanced. All with the same result.
    I tested this even on old files which I was able to print last Aug 2020. Can't print.
    I opened the illustrator file in PDF and it was able to print.

    I would appreciate it if you can help solve this bug in Illustrator.

  9. Close button has gap

    [windows 10] The close button on Illustrator has gap in the corner - and when your mouse goes to the corner (which it usually does when you want to close a window) - you are clicking on thee X button of the program beneath it. ...This is very furstrating and i just closed other software where i lost an hour of work. Adobe this is sloppy - Photoshop has simillar button, but the gap is closed, while for example - After effects uses the normal windows 10 border ....make this stuff the same! Such differences are acceptable from free software,…

  10. pasting text fails in v24.3

    Pasting text inside a text box fails, it creates a new text box so all styles need to be re-applied.

  12. object distortion on perspective grid after pathfinder unite

    Windows 10 home, Illustrator 2020.

    After uniting two or more rectangles on the perspective grid to make a more complex shape, moving/copying the new object using the perspective selection tool results in distortion as the object appears to have become detached from it's perspective plane. The behaviour is shown in the attached image.

    Inserting the step Object > Perspective > Attach to active directly after Unite allows the object to move correctly (thanks Monika Gause) although it was suggested that perhaps this step shouldn't be necessary and it should be able to move correctly without it.

    Many thanks, Craig.

  13. Guides not scaling correctly on copy/paste into large canvas

    If I copy a 5"x5" rectangle from a regular document and paste it to a large canvas document, it remains 5"x5", as expected.

    However, if I convert the same shape to a guide and then copy it from a regular document to a large canvas document, the guide becomes 50"x50". This really makes things difficult when copying guides and artwork together into a large canvas.

  14. Can't Add Artboards in Increments of 10 by Using Shift

    Used to be able in the new document window add 10 artboards by shift+clicking the buttons to the side. Now whenever I do it, it's just one at a time. Would be nice to have that back.

  15. win10 2009 kein konformer Kachelhintergrund in der Startmenü-Verknüpfung

    ich bin mir relativ sicher, das die fehlerhafte Darstellung des illustrator icons im neuen win 10 startmenü nur im dark mode) mit einem in der illustrator.exe implementierten xml code zusammen hängt.

    microsoft wird mit dem nächsten update die icon hintergründe im startmenü deaktiviert. im dark mode ist dann jede kachel dunkelgrau, die typo ist weiß. beim Illustrator icon ist die Schrift aber schwarz und der Hintergrund hellgrau.

    der white mode von win 10 2009 ist nicht betroffen!

    ich habe illustrator & creative cloud mehrfach installiert und die Registry danach gesäubert (sogar ganz frisch auf einem zweit Rechner für Testzwecke installiert).…

  16. Need to double up on action when resizing artboard to bounds or art

    Op Sys: macOS Catalina 10.15.6
    Illustrator version: 24.2.3

    Hello– After years of putting up with this I am hoping to finally have it cleared up. When I want to resize the artboard to either the artwork bounds or selected art, the app 'ignores' my first attempt to do so and only picks it up after the second attempt.

    Check out this video to witness exactly what I mean: https://youtu.be/ALfUF8532NE

    Thank you for any assistance!

  17. Canvas Unlock

    I love the idea of the new unlock on canvas feature, but it is causing one problem.

    If a locked layer is ABOVE another unlocked layer, I can not select the layer below. My cursor will only select the locked layer. Since it is now possible to select a locked layer I can't select an item BELOW the locked layer. This is pretty common for me and an easy way to work with lots of layers withouth hiding/showing to work with lower layers. Which kinda defeats the purpose of locking a layer . . .

  18. Impossible to change preset of work area. Right panels, tools and control bar disappear every opening

    OS: Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
    Illustrator version: 24.3
    Everytime I open a document (new or saved) right panels, tools and control bar desappear. Moreover, work area settings doesn't work: at first the work area doesn't appear and, if I try to set it, it only takes the "automation" configuration but the relative panels do not appear

  19. Select Same Fill & Stroke not working, version 24.3

    Select Same Fill & Stroke is not working in Illustrator CC, version 24.3. I'm using it on a large image traced vector pattern and need to change out the shape colors. I've used to do this all the time in past versions.

  20. Changing color on gradient object freezes illustrator

    I noticed a similar issue someone was having in 2019, but it doesn't seem precisely the same. I am running Illustrator 24.3 on Windows 10. I recently pulled up an Illustrator file from last year to pull items for a new, related project. One of the vectors is a gradient - I'm trying to change it to solid fill. The only way I can do this right now is to change it to whatever solid is my default in my Tools panel, then change it to the actual color I want in my color palette. The Color palette automatically selects…
