Objects Fill Color (Global/Spot) removed when changing any of the stroke property

I have multiple objects selected with the same stroke colour and different fill colours. I change the stroke colour and the fill colour of all selected objects change to none. Using Illustrator 25.3 on Mac 10.4.6.

I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 25.4.1 which is available worldwide now.

Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

    AI 25.4 seems to have fix the issue for me too.

    Thanks to the revolutionay Creative Cloud model that allows more fast updates, it just took… 1.5 month to repair a simple everyday function broken by Adobe, hurray!

    Final release of 25.4 appears to have fixed this bug for me. Fantastic.

  • Lewis Tsalis commented  ·   ·  Report

    Not fixed for me in 25.4beta. Still removes fill when changing stroke colour/attributes.

  • Renee commented  ·   ·  Report

    I tried the Beta 25.4.0 and I thought it was fixed at first, but in RGB files it's still happening. and files that are already CMYK existing files. New files that are set to CMYK it seems to be fixed.

    This has been happening to me consistently. It's a big problem, I need to change the stroke property of a group often. Please fix this problem. I'm using 25.3.1

    I noticed this when selecting objects with different spot color fills and the same stroke. Any attempt to change the stroke weight or stroke color results in fills set to none. This seems inherent to version 25.3

  • Ann commented  ·   ·  Report

    When using Select>Same>Stroke the other appearances are cleared when the stroke is adjusted.

    I'm having the exact same problem, definitely need a fix for this quickly.

    Just happened to me. I regularly change the stroke of multiple shapes at once, and I drove myself nuts trying to figure out why all of a sudden it isn't working right. Definitely not good. Fix please.

    I uninstalled AI and went back to the previous version and it works proper.

    1. select multiple paths with different stroke color
    2. change stroke weight to any
    3. stroke changes to NONE

    Same issue here with 25.3.1

    Rather annoying and works normally if you only have one color selected. Otherwise the stroke just up and disappears entirely when changing thickness of multiple colored strokes with no fill.

    See screenshot for OS and AI info.

    1. Open attached EPS file
    2. Select all
    3. Change stroke thickness
    4. All stroke colors disappear

    The stroke color should not change when changing the thickness. This used to work in alle previous versions, so i'm guessing this is a bug.

    Attached the eps file (i renamed it to ai, otherwise i could not upload it). Below a link to the video:
