Text overset icon appears on final exported image
=================
Summary
Just updated to Illustrator 24.0, and had an artboard with overset text. When I performed an "Export for Screens", I noted the overset icon informing me I had text overset in the textbox. However, I knew the relevant text was actually visible — so I continued with the export. In the final image, I found the text overset icon was actually exported as a part of the artwork. (See attached example: "Artboard 1.png")
=================
Steps to Repeat
- Create textbox with overset text
- Export artboard: File > Export > Export for Screens (Alt + Ctrl + E) (See attached Screenshot: "export-for-screens.png")
- I chose to export as a PNG at original size
- Open the file after export is complete, and the text overset icon is visible
=================
Expected Results
I expected NOT to see the text overset icon in the final exported file.
=================
Actual Results
Text overset icon is visible in final exported file.

Same here. This kind of UI marks should not be visible outside Illustrator interface.

When I export PNG files from AI, using the File > Export for screens command, my exported graphics are showing the AI in-app UI symbols for overflow text. This should not be happening. Actual exported .png attached.
