swatches are not saving
My swatches are not saving to my library after closing the program and have to remake them. My brushes are doing the same thing. They are also not there when I open a new document during the same session that I have made/saved the new swatch or brush. I looked to update my program but it appears to be up to date.
I have adobe illustrator cc 2019

Artboard color and palletes not showing correctly onscreen
Each time my CC updates my swatches and artboard color is off. Adobe techs went in remotely and fixed it once. My CMYK Red looks like Magenta on screen. Reg Black looks Navy blue. PLEASE FIX THIS!!

Bug: Stroke color with 0pt width causes a switch to "outline" view.
When I have a path with a stroke of 0pt and I try to apply color, it will switch to "outline" view and won't allow me to go back to "GPU Preview", tell me something like "Can't render preview".
The only way to bypass the bug, is to save the file, close Illustrator, open it again and voila everything works.Unfortunatelly, I can't reproduce the bug right now.
1 voteApply a stroke color to a 0 pt stroke should increase the stroke to 1 pt.

Color panel problem.
Mac OS 10.14.3
Illustrator CC V23.0.2The panel display default is the spectrum, even when I specifically select CMYK (or RGB for that matter) unless "Show Options" is selected. Color values should be the default. Can this be fixed?

Color Gray printing as brown when saving from Illustrator CC v23.0.2 to CS4
MacOS Mojave v10.14.4 & Illustrator CC v23.0.2
When saving a file from Illustrator CC v23.0.2 to CS4 the gray colors print as brown but if I save the file as the current Illustrator CC v23.0.2 it prints as gray as it should. It is a CMYK document with only K values. Discovered this from printing an older document created 08/2019 then printing the new document. The old document was also saved from the version at that date to CS4 but the new document saving to CS4 printed as brown not gray.1 votePlease get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html .

Stop automatically changing RGB files to grayscale when working with colors
Illustrator takes an RGB file and converts it to grayscale when changing the color of paths. For example- in an RGB file I change a path to red. Illustrator turns the path gray and converts the file to grayscale. I then have to convert the file back to RGB in order for the path to show as red.

Automatically Overprint ON in Gradient
We have disabled Overprint in Gradient stroke for the particular eps. But once we save the eps file and again open the same eps in illustrator, automatically overprint enabled.
Due to this we have received quality issue in Printer. So please let me know how to disable overprint for Gradient Stroke.

Entered hue color value changes
Setting a hue to 90 degrees while in sRGB will convert the hue to 88 degrees after you click OK. This same behavior does not occur in Photoshop.

Color blend control panel
Trying to change a fill in a preexisting color blend. Control panel only allows shifting the current blend, not adding or changing color. Any time the color pallet is selected, the blend control box disappears. Adobe is adding more features is cool, but taking away the basic features we've had for years is uncool.

No swatches showing for any panels
When I open up a file using the open with option inside of Windows explorer, my swatches are always empty no matter what panel I'm using. Colors panel, etc. The only way it doesn't seem to have this bug is if I'm inside of Adobe Illustrator and I open a file from inside of the program. This is very inconvenient.
1 voteThis is working as expected. You have opened a png file and since a png file will not have Illustrator swatches it does not show up.
If you create a new Illustrator file will then see Illustrator swatches. Once you have created a new Illustrator file you can place the png file inside it. -
Default Black
My default black (000000) is registering as a dark grey (1A1818). I have updated the software and tried CMD+drag the "black" and white style in Graphic Styles to the default location in an effort to reset. Nothing is working; every time I need black (which is often) I have to go in and manually change the color to 000000.
