  1. Color Mixer in Control and Properties panels gets broken after using Tab

    The Color Mixer in Properties and Control works oddly. Here, I try to navigate my fields with Tab, and then drag one slider — boom, it all breaks: sliders vanish, active fields become visually inactive, closing it becomes very hard...

    I feel like it started happening when the generative virus put its tendrils into Ai.

  2. Persistent Toolbar Rich Tooltips

    Tooltips are particularly buggy when using more than one monitor, they tend to persist and keep animating whilst users are attempting to focus on what they are doing within the interface.

  3. Centre Points of all objects are visible when I reopen files

    Illustrator 30.0 on Mac Ventura 13.7.8

    Each time I reopen a file in which I had a mix of objects with either visible or hidden centre points, most of these are visible (at least, those of paths, guides…) and they can get in the way.

    I think this started happening with the new version 30.0 (or maybe just the one before).

    Here are examples of 2 similar files, one with and one without all Centre Points showing.

    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    The team tried to fix this in Beta 30.1.0.109. The latest one is 30.2.0.12.

    If you can — please try to use Beta and see if no centers will be enabled or disabled when reopening a file. The fix won’t remove those that are already in a document, so we need to to toggle them manually in the Attributes panel.

    Help Bar is available only in the latest Beta (starting with 29.2) and Prerelease builds so far. As soon as the team decides it’s ready to be pushed into main build, you’ll be able to get it. At the moment you can install Beta build from CCD app, or just wait.
