  1. Color fill turning grey when selecting outside of Gamut area

    I am selecting colors for CMYK that are not out of Gamut, and it is still turning grey. Very annoying. I've been having so many issues with Illustrator not performing as expected.

  2. Shape changes color every time I reopen the file after saving

    As the title says, every time I start working on the saved file, a particular 1 type of shape across all artboards changes color to yellow or black from white when I reopen the saved file. Still can't understand why yellow or black, I never put yellow on that shape.

  4. Deleting colors from Swatches panel crashes Illustrator

    In Illustrator 2026, 30.0, on a Mac running 15.6.1, any time I go to delete a swatch, any swatch, any number of swatches, it immediately crashes the program. I reset preferences and nothing changed...still crashes. Started a new file in case there was something going on with the old one, still crashes.

  5. 拡大縮小

    バージョン30.0で拡大縮小ツールで「パターンの変形」のみを行おうとした際、ダイアログ上で「オブジェクトの変形」「パターンの変形」の両方のチェックが入った状態(もしくはオブジェクトの変形からパターンの変形に変更)から、「オブジェクトの変形」のチェックを外して「パターンの変形」のチェックのみにして実行するとパターンの変形が何度やっても実行されない。(最初から「パターンの変形」のみにチェックが入っていた場合のみパターンの変形が実行される)
    場合によっては、その後のオブジェクトの拡大縮小も挙動がおかしくなるので再起動が必要になる。
    なお、他の変形ツールに関しては未確認。

  6. 2026 converted RGB file to CMYK, won't go back

    Got a new computer, downloaded Illustrator vs 2026, and signed in to Illustrator. I opened a file, started working on it, and noticed all my colors in the color panel were CMYK. The overall color setting was still RGB in the title at the top, and under color settings. Not only was everything in the color panel CMYK, but all of the options to change that were greyed out. Somehow, opening up a 2025 file in 2026 corrupted my color setting at the panel level and wouldn't let me change them back. I haven't disassembled my old PC, so I…

  8. Fehler bei Bildern beim Ändern vom Dokumentfarbmodus RGB <=> CMYK (Bilder gehen kaput)

    System: Windows 11 Pro, Illustrator 29.8.1

    Ich habe folgendes Problem:
    Ab und zu erstelle ich ein Plakat in A3 im CMYK-Modus für den Druck und benötige das identische Layout zusätzlich für eine Stele im RGB-Modus. Bisher konnte ich die Layoutinhalte aus dem CMYK-Dokument einfach kopieren und in ein RGB-Dokument einfügen – das funktionierte problemlos. Seit einiger Zeit jedoch werden die verknüpften Bilder dabei zerstört:

    • teilweise werden sie komplett schwarz,
    • teilweise stark verfärbt,
    • teilweise nur in Fragmenten dargestellt.

    Manchmal passiert es auch, dass ein schwarzes Bild nach dem Bewegen des Illustrator-Fensters plötzlich wieder sichtbar wird.

    Das gleiche Verhalten tritt auf, wenn…

  9. Can’t edit colors in a selection

    When going to edit a color CMYK mixture the mixtures go blank and then it acts as if their is no fill color. I am trying to edit the CMYK mix to match the PMS mix and it keeps glitching after my latest update. You can see in my image that even though the color is slected it shows no color in the fill or a question mark.

  10. Double Click on Fill results in Black

    Double clicking on the Fill (bottom of tools palette), when the current fill is a gradient results in the fill turning black, in stead of opening the Gradient Editor, which might be helpful and intuitively right.

    Please make this happen:
    Double click on the Fill at the bottom of the tools palette should open the color editor that is most likely:
    -RGB color should open RGB editor, CMYK should open CMYK editor, Gradient should open Gradient Editor, etc.

  11. コントロールパネルから塗りや線の色を変更する際、カラースライダーに数値を入力してからスライダーを動かすと数値やスライダーやカラースペクトルの表示が消える

    コントロールパネルから塗りや線画を変えるためにカラースライダーに数値を打ち込んだ後スライダーをマウスでドラッグするとカラーパネルに表示されているカラースライダーやカラースペクトルなどの表示が消える。それまで打ち込んでいたカラーの数値が変わったり変わらなかったりする。

  14. HEX Value can't overwrite spot colors in color palette

    I set a global color (Spot or process doesn't matter) but if I try to enter any code in the HEX value field, I'm not allowed to type anything. I must first convert the color to CMYK or RGB with the appropriate button and only at this point I'm allowed to type the code in the HEX field
    It would be much more practical to be able to insert the HEX code even without having to necessarily convert the color to CMYK or RGB first

  15. Livetracing Bitmaps gives results with random shades of black

    Up until recently, if I used the Livetrace and Expand command on a bitmap it would produce results with only pure white and pure black, as you would expect. Now it randomly assigns values to every piece of what should be black. Instead of 100% black they are 99.29% or 99.67%. Normally I would select one piece, select all by color and move it. Now I need to click on every single piece and apply black to them. Very tedious.

  16. 線と塗りが黒のテキスト選択時にカラーパネルを変更するとパネルの挙動がおかしくなる


    PC:Mac Studio M1 MAX / OS Ventura 13.4と13.5
    Illustrator:26.5.3と27.7で同じ現象を確認

    ②線と塗りにC0Y0M0K100が適応されているテキストを選択した状態で、カラーパネルをCMYKからグレースケールに変える。

    ③C0Y0M0K100からK100になる。
    ④見た目は黒だがカラーパネルはK=0になってしまっている。
     修正しようとするとオブジェクトが白になってしまう。

    補足:グレースケールからCMYKパネルに変更した時も黒から白になります。ちなみにアピアランス設定で塗りと色を黒にして同じ操作をすると問題なく黒のままでした。

    既出でしたら申し訳ございません、ご検証宜しくお願いいたします。

  17. Can't delete swatch

    I have a random color swatch that appears in my Swatches palette every time I create a new document. It cannot be deleted. As far as I can tell, it is not being used anywhere. I can change it to a different color, but then if I try to delete it, it not only does not delete, but it changes back to the original color. Right now, it's some random shade of blue, but at other times it is a different color that persists. Here is a video: https://youtu.be/MVJKo4i0xfw

  18. 「レビュー用に共有」で塗りがネガポジ反転する。

    「レビュー用に共有」をしたときリンク先で表示されるドキュメントの塗りや線の色がネガポジ反転してしまいました。
    色々と試してみたところ、カラー絵文字フォントが原因のようで、アウトライン化したら正しく表示されるようになりました。
    アウトライン化前とアウトライン化後のファイルを共有しておきます。
    (正しい塗りの色は青です)

    こちらはリリース版(27.4.1)、プレリリース版(27.6)どちらも再現しました(Mac OS、Ventura)。
    Windows11のリリース版も同様です。
    いずれもブラウザはChrome。MacはSafariでも試しました。

  19. Colors don't match

    The color picker rounds the CMYK to the nearest whole number but the color window does not. They should be made consistent.

  20. Numeric keypad not functioning properly in AI v27

    When trying to type in numeric values in the swatches, it will change as you type the default back to "zero". I've gone back and forth between v26 and v27 and it appears to be working fine in 26. It is pretty much anywhere you have to type in numeric values.
