  1. Fills rendered not accurate compared to edges when using GPU mode

    I noticed a small rendering issue with strokes in GPU mode. The boundaries seem to be somewhat inaccurate, to the point that in certain situations (regardless of whether or not they're joined and by any method), suck as a tee shape, a small bulge of one stroke can appear beyond the edge of another, even though they shouldn't.

    See attached pictures, the problem area is circled. It is subtle, but visible. There is a slight bulge extending outwards towards the right, presumably from the horizontal path at that junction. This is incorrect, the paths are joined and have identical stroke…

  2. Images in clipping masks glitching and overlaying artwork when in GPU

    This is similar to previous posts but not sure if the same.. apologies if repeating. In the latest version of illustrator, images within clipping masks are glitching out and making the file impossible to work with. These glitched versions of the masked image change constantly when zooming in or out, but do not disappear as they used to when illustrator bugged out previously. see attached screenshot. The orange metal flake texture should only exist within the frame of the bicycle. The lighter orange glitchy shapes do not exist.

    Hi All,

    Thank you for reaching out and reporting this issue.

    We’ve attempted to reproduce the problem in-house but have been unable to do so with the current information. To assist us in resolving the issue more effectively, we would greatly appreciate it if you could provide the following details:

    1. Machine configuration and GPU details.
    2. If possible, the .ai file(s) where the issue is observed.
    3. A short screen recording demonstrating the issue.
    4. Confirmation on whether the issue persists with the latest Adobe Illustrator build.

    Your input will help us investigate this more thoroughly and expedite a resolution.

    Looking forward to your response.

  3. Strokes become sporadic and missing in some places

    Strokes become sporadic and missing in some places. I don't know what the issue is. My strokes were perfect yesterday and now I update my Mac and the strokes are now sporadic, jagged and missing in places. See screenshot.

  5. Magnifying screen redrawing flaws

    In Illustrator 2022, when I zoom in, the screen turns black and my artwork only redraws the portions where I hover the mouse, as if the display was defective.

  6. GPU Preview displaying hidden shapes

    In GPU Preview, turning off the visibility of a shape in the layers panel doesn't always hide the shape - it still remains on screen.
    If I switch to Outline view the shape is hidden correctly.
    If I switch back to GPU Preview the shape is still being displayed.
    I have to reboot Illustrator to get GPU Preview to work correctly again.
    And then it goes wrong again very soon afterwards.

    This has now happened several times.
    I've also had shape fills showing as incorrect colors in GPU Preview, eg. a square with a white fill, suddenly started displaying as…

  7. Screen goes white as soon as I draw something

    As soon as I open an Illustrator document and draw or touch an object, the screen goes white. I switch between gpu and cpu rendering, nothing changes.

    Need More Info  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    The team is aware of a similar looking issue, where this is due to Anchor Point Size preference set to Max value. Please check if changing it from Max to any other value resolves this and comment back.

    The investigation continues to get the root cause of this preference corruption.

  8. Artifacts that shouldn't be there

    I've noticed that sometimes there will remain some random artefacts of after deleting anchors that are ordered in lines or curves around each other.
    It will remain there, can't be selected, and even if the rest of the original form is removed, it still remain.
    It is not shown after rendering the image though.
    It occurs sometimes, and could be disturbing.

  11. 合成フォント使用時に、欧文書体のベースラインがずれる

    1. macOS Catalina 10.15.5 Mac mini (2018) プロセッサ／3.2 GHz 6コアIntel Core i7 メモリ／16 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 グラフィックス／Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB

    Adobe illustrator 2021(25.2.1)

    2.問題が発生したときに実行していた手順
    和文と欧文で合成フォントを作成。
    今回は「TBゴシックstd」と「Berthold Akzidenz Grotesk」を使用。
    Berthold Akzidenz Groteskのサイズを112%、ベースラインを-2%に設定。
    テキストをアウトライン化時に発見。

    3.想定していた結果
    普通にアウトライン化される。

    4.実際の結果
    GPUプレビュー使用時に合成フォントの欧文ベースラインが正しく反映されて表示されない。
    検証したところ、フォントサイズ24ptまではベースラインの数値が反映されず0%で表示。25pt以上でズレて表示される。
    25ptで一番顕著にズレが発生し、フォントサイズが大きくなるにつれてズレ幅が少なくなっていく。
    アウトライン化すると表示からズレて、（おそらく）ベースラインに入力した数値が反映された位置でオブジェクトになる。

    入稿時などにアウトライン化する際にズレが発生するため非常に危険です。

    こちら「合成フォントで欧文フォントのベースラインが正しく反映されない」という問題ですが、ご報告いただいたフォント以外の組み合わせの合成フォントで再現いたしますか？
    他のフォントで検証しておりますが、再現できませんでした。

    お手数をおかけしますが、ご確認くださいますよう、よろしくお願いしたします。
