1. Gradient gets rasterized into a different looking one when used for mapping with 3D Revolve

   While in 3D Revolve, I am trying to apply a created Symbol onto a half circle with a gradient. Within the dialog box, there is a message that says "the gradient will be rasterized", which changes my gradient from "red to black gradient" to a "balk and white gradient". That changes my whole effect.

5. Problem with raster effects printing

   We have had to outlaw the use of raster effects here because of the distortion they cause when an AI file is saved as a PDF.

   Our workflow for printing is the save our work from Illustrator as a PDF file which is then placed in an InDesign document. Any raster effects used in the graphic end up adding lines the edge of the effect as well as shifting the colors touched by the effect.

6. Symbols | Mapping stroke to 3D-Model will distort stroke

   Hi together,

   recently I came accross a mapping bug with a stroke ( width 0.2 Pt ) applied to a waving flag shape used in a symbol that was mapped to a 3D model.

   All details can be found at Adobe Illustrator User Forum here:
   Symbols | Mapping stroke to 3D-Model will distort stroke
   Laubender Mar 21, 2019
   https://forums.adobe.com/message/10989571#10989571

   Workarounds like expanding the stroke and working with an extra path element stacked behind the flag shape did not help.

   The only workaround that will help is rendering the elements to an image and implement the placed and not linked image with the symbol for mapping. A workaround that I do not like at all because my vector objects will be gone.

   All test files attached as a zip file that I renamed to *.txt because Illustrator Feedback will not allow to attach zip files. Thanks for that hack go to Peter Kahrel who recently did this with a bug report on Adobe InDesign Uservoice!

   So if you want to unzip the provided file first RENAME it with suffix *.zip. Thanks.

   Regards,
   Uwe Laubender
   ( ACP )

   All tests done with German Adobe Illustrator CC 2019 version 23.0.2 on Windows 10. Some tests on the same machine with German Illustrator CS6 where I already can see the same issues.

7. Legacy blur lost when pasting into a new document.

   An object with a legacy blur loses it's setting when copying and pasting into a new document. The blur is still listed in appearance, but there is no value and effectively no blur.

8. Text with effects becomes a group of text and rendered raster image. Effect is no longer 'live'

   Text with effects becomes a group of text and rendered raster image. Effect is no longer 'live'
   Text block is now a group with a raster image for the drop shadow. I have to reapply the drop shadow in order to correctly edit the text block.

11. Blending Modes BUG in Ai

    1. Version of Adobe Illustrator - 22.1 Machine: iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015) Graphics: AMD Radeon R9 M380 2048 MB
    2. The issues - Using Blending Modes (specifically Screen/Color Burn). Worked both in on-screen preview mode & saved as a jpg, Thursday, April 12th, 2018. Today, Monday April 16th, they are not displaying properly on-screen, in print, or in saved file preview. (if color mode is switched to RGB, blending mode displays more properly, but not in Overprint Preview) Screen blending mode disappears/Color Burn retains only some parts of the graphic in black. Does not translate between cc programs either.
    3. Expected Result: Blending modes should be displayed and printing as applied.
    4. Actual Result: Blending modes are altering the artwork vitally and completely.

    Request to Contact Support  ·  Ashutosh Chaturvedi responded

    Please get in touch with us at sharewithai@adobe.com . Please give a reference to this post so that we can identify you.
    Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.
    We may also need your help with file to get this internally reproduced and then subsequently attempt to resolve it.

    Warm Regards,
    Ashutosh Chaturvedi | Sr. Quality Engineering Manager – Illustrator

13. Illustrator doesn’t always show Cancel button in progress dialogs for some effects, possibly Windows only

    I use effects a lot, and sometimes while experimenting with appearance I get quite heavy calculations triggered (on accident or intentionally). And surely sometimes i want to cancel the execution... but these often miss it (at least on Windows).

    The developer of the plugin says:

    Illustrator is responsible for creating and updating the progress dialogue -- a plugin simply indicates that it wants one.
    And they have it fine on Mac.

14. Pasted symbol into new doc and that new symbol layer appearance overrode everything

    Very unexpected /confusing issue with Illustrator today.

    I cut and pasted a symbol from one document into a new doc. I tried to apply a new color to the symbol and it wouldn't work.

    The appearance panel showed the objects as black, the objects on the pasteboard were brown, and when I selected them, the fill color in the toolbar showed yellow.

    I broke the link to the symbol and tried to apply that yellow color to the compound path—it wouldn't work.

    I released the compound path and tried to apply yellow to the individual objects—it still wouldn't work.

    Rebooted Illustrator. Didn't help.
    Rebooted computer. Didn't help.

    Restarted Illustrator, went into the original symbol, and went into the symbol, cut and pasted the paths into the new doc—still wouldn't work.

    THEN... I noticed I was pasting the paths onto an empty layer named new symbol 2, so I pasted the paths onto a new layer and the colors were correct!

    SO DEVS, I don't think this is a logical workflow. There is no indication on the appearance panel that a color was applied to a layer, so it's near impossible to tell what's going on.

16. Applying a material to an extruded object says it’s not enough RAM

    I apparently don't have enough RAM to do this. I'm trying to add a material to the border of the left file, it's a fill not a stoke... I have 96GB of RAM.... I am apparently using 26GB of memory. 70 Gb of RAM Should really be enough for almost anything I would think. Please let me know if there's a way I can use these tools if not I'll have to go back to my client and say "Adobe can't do it" once again.

17. Gaussian Blur preview is slow to calculate

    Gaussian Blur is just so difficult to use, and preview NEVER works.

    When it's activated, to make a change on the objects or font that it is applied to, requires that I always turn it off first and turn it back on later. There is always a long delay for it to appear. The Gaussian blur needs to be redesigned so it is as dynamic and powerful as the feature in Photoshop.

18. Applying 3D effects crashes Ai, with errors from Geometry3D module

    These constant bugs in every update are really infuriating.
    When applying 3D effects (e.g., extrude or inflate), Illustrator 2025 v29.6.1 on macOS 14.5 (M4 Pro, 24GB RAM) crashes immediately.
    
    Crash report shows repeated errors from Geometry3D module and abort() called in main thread.

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Create a shape (e.g., rectangle or text)
    2. Apply 3D > Extrude or Inflate
    3. Sometimes applying materials also causes crash
    4. Illustrator immediately crashes without saving

    macOS Version: macOS Sonoma 14.5
    Illustrator Version: 29.6.1
    Chip: M4 Pro
    RAM: 24GB
    Crash module: Geometry3D

20. Wrong appearance of Drop Shadow effect with text object (non-English characters).

    Wrong appearance of Drop Shadow effect with text object. It looks like effect use incorrect regional standards settings separate from the text itself causing the shadow looks like complete other characters .

    Also, if you turn off BLUR in DROP SHADOW, the shadow becomes normal. And this does not happen with all fonts.
