テキストフレームでグローバルスウォッチの変更が適用されない。
OS/macOS10.13〜、Windows10 (20H2)
ver/25.4.4、26.0.3エリアテキストオブジェクトのパスにグローバールスウォッチを適用し、そのオブジェクトを複製した場合、描画がグローバルスウォッチの編集に追随しなくなる。
再現手順
1.エリアテキストを作成しテキストパスのみを選択して塗りにグローバルスウォッチを適用した上Command（ctrl）＋option（ALT）を押しながらドラッグし複製する。
2.選択を外した状態にし、適用したグローバルスウォッチをダブルクリックし編集に入る。
3.プレビューにチェックを入れた上でカラーを編集する。
4.コントロールバーやカラーパネルでの表示は変化するがテキストパスの塗りは変化しない。OKをクリックし編集を終了する。
5.スウォッチパネルなどの表示は正しく更新されるが1.のテキストバスの塗りは表示が変わらない。期待する結果
グローバルスウォッチを適用したテキストエリアオブジェクトのパスでも他のオブジェクトと同様にグローバルスウォッチの変更に表示を追随させる。現状の挙動
エリアテキストのパスに適用した塗りがグローバルスウォッチの変更に追随しない。対応策
一旦アウトライン表示に切り替えてからプレビュー表示を行うとグローバルスウォッチの値にて再描画される。この挙動を細かく見てみると複製したエリアテキストのパスに対する処理に問題がありそうです。１点だけだと再現しません。また、オブジェクト的にはカラー値は更新されていますので単純に再描画が行われていないように思われます。
以下のコミュニティスレッドをご確認下さい。https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustratorフォーラム-discussions/テキストの背景にスウォッチ/m-p/12725589#M27421

Bug on the All Caps (case) open type feature
If the typeface uses GPOS in the "case" feature to relocate a glyph, Illustrator seems to ignore it. It is working well no InDesign and and Photoshop.
So the "case" feature is broken for glyphs that reposition with GPOS.I am a typeface designer and developer, but I found the same complaint from another person: https://forum.glyphsapp.com/t/contextual-gpos-adjustments-for-brackets-symbols-question/17569/3

Fonts are not refreshed when right sided metrics are changed
This issue happens in the context of editing the metrics of a font file multiple times (in order to view new metrics changes in realtime).
Fonts will not always be refreshed to the latest version when overwriting a font file in the Adobe Fonts folder with a new updated version:
When a right sidebearing of a glyph is changed and the font regenerated, the font is NOT updated in Illustrator.
Whereas editing a left side bearing and regenerating the font will show the updated font with all edited metrics (both the new left & right sidebearings).
Issue happens in all…

Constrain with Shift key not working
I'm trying to move the bottom line of a text box.
I select the box's line with open arrow, hold down the SHIFT key to constrain - and it automatically deselects the type box that I was trying to move. I can select the line with the open arrow and move it that way, but it's too easy to make an error and shift the box. I need the corners to remain perfectly square which is why I'm holding the Shift key.
I've had this problem with the last few upgrades.
I'm an Adobe Illustrator user for more than 25…

Tracking of the first character shifts the alignment of the next tab stop
en_US
When tracking is applied to the first character of a text frame, the alignment of the next tab stop will be shifted from the correct position depending on the amount of tracking.
Only the tracking of the first character and the next tabstop are affected, not if kerning or akiRight is applied. After the target tab stop, the position will be correct.
This bug seems to have occurred in Illustrator 2020, as it is not reproduced in Illustrator CC2019(23.1.1).
Environment
- macOS 12.7.3(Apple Silicon)
- Illustrator 2020(24.3.0)〜2024(28.5.0)
Steps to reproduce
- Open the attached file trackingtabstop2019.ai in Illustrator 2020 or…

Text cursor/text selection is invisible when inside group, and getting text cursor is jittery at best.
The text cursor and text highlight selection don't appear when inside grouped text. Also getting the text cursor vs the selection cursor is very jittery. I'm running ai 25.0.1 on a 2017, 5K iMac, os Big Sur 11.1. I've attached videos of the poor functionality.

Creation of Character/paragraph style is not undoable.
You can undo any operation before and after but creation of Character/paragraph style does not get into "undo" list. You have to delete it manually from styles list.Select text\paragraph, make Character/paragraph style. Selected text/paragraph is not set instantly to this newly created style but it should.

Paragraph style tab numeric measure is wrong
v22.1/23/0.1
Windows 10Both v22.1 and 23.0.1 show the wrong numeric 'X' measure when setting or adjusting a tab stop in a paragraph style. The measure shown is inflated both according to the ruler below the tab stop, and tabs set using the tab window. The numeric measure is inflated by an increasing amount the further the tab is from the left margin, and remains inflated whether units are set to mm or inches.
eg. 20mm tab stop shows as 29.8mm in the paragraph style dialog-
