  1. Trim View gets disabled when switching artboards with Pixel Preview on

    In a document with multiple artboards and bled artwork.
    In Pixel Preview Mode, Turn on Trim View. Select a Different Artboard. Trim View Turns Off.

    With no shortcut for Trim View this means you have to go back to the menu for every artboard you click. If you're working with 15+ artboards this process becomes tedious.

  2. Zoom difetto

    Con l'aggiornamento del sistema operativo Mac OS 12 non si riesce ad avvicinare con lo zoom, il valore dipende dal file da 400%, si files più leggeri si arriva a 600%
    Questo tenendo la risoluzione dello schermo alla massima risoluzione mentre se si scende come risoluzione a 2k il problema non si presenta. Sia con Illustrator 2021 che con il 2022

  3. Artboard Options - Constrain Proportions Bug (Illustrator v25.4.1)

    When I make an additional artboard using Shift + O, I click then drag the new artboard and when you hold Shift it constrains the new board to the same as the board made previously, like a rectangle. Holding Shift should make a square.

    This issue occurs regardless of the Constrain Proportions box being checked or not.

  4. 「すべてのアートボードを再配置」を間隔がアートボードが隙間なく隣接する形で適用したのちに、アートボードを新規作成すると強制終了する。

    オペレーティングシステム windows 10 Home 19042.1083
    Illustrator 25.4.1

    再現手順:
    1.アートボードを2つ以上作成
    2.アートボードウインドウの「ずべてのアートボードを再配置」にて間隔を裁ち落としが重なる形で、完全に隣接する値で適用する。(裁ち落としが四方3mmであれば、間隔は-6mm)
    3.アートボードウインドウの「新規アートボード」ボタンにてアートボードを作成する。
    4.Illustratorが強制終了する。

    アートボード間に少しでも隙間がある場合は再現せず。当方の環境では同様の手順で例外なく強制終了しました。

    よろしくお願いします。

    Illustrator 製品版フィードバックへのご協力ありがとうございます。

    ご報告いただきました問題について検証した結果、以下の条件で Illustrator がフリーズする現象を確認いたしました。

    複数アートボードを再配置する際に、アートボードエリアの間隔を「0mm 以下」に設定し、その後、新規アートボードを追加するとフリーズし応答しなくなる。

    裁ち落としの有無に関係なく、アートボードエリアが重なる設定だと発生します。
    Illustrator ver.25.4.1、ver.24.3 の macOS と Windows の両方で再現いたしました。

    今後、追跡調査を行います。
    開発に進捗がありましたら、こちらでご報告いたします。

    よろしくお願いいたします。

  6. Convert to Artboards doesn't work if there are Sublayers on the same Layer

    "To create Artboards, select non-rotated rectangles that are not clipping masks."

  8. Extremely slow to drag items, zoom in and out shows glitches

    Mac OS Catalina, ver. 10.15.7
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2020, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports), 2,3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, 32 GB 3733 MHz LPDDR4X, Intel Iris Plus Graphics 1536 MB

    Illustrator: 25.2.3

    Illustrator is very slow at times and shows the rainbow wheel when I'm trying to move objects (even simple ones) around the artboard.
    Also when zooming in and out the artwork becomes glitched (shows some fragments duplicated or parts of the artwork disappear). Restarting the program temporarily fixes the issue.

  9. Artboard size doesn’t match the trim box in Acrobat

    This file has an artboard size of 10mm in Illustrator, yet when opened in Acrobat the trim box shows as 10.283mm rather than 10mm. Why is this?

  10. Illustrator 25.2.1 Keeps losing links to images

    I have a document that contains many imported images, every time I close it and reopen it I have to relink all of the images again. The links panel shows me the file name and the path but all that is on the artboard is a black square.

    It has also been crashing more lately so of course I have to relink the images when I get it back up again.

    Embedded images seem to stay but as we all know the file size is going to get crazy.

  11. Actual Size View not to depend on Artboard

    Actual Size View command (cmd+1) brings you to 100% Artboard view instead of 100% current view. If you are drawing way off any artboard, that command takes you to a completely different place from where you are.
    Instead, I expect this command to have the same result as typing 100% in Navigator window or double-clicking Zoom tool.
    I would also appreciate it if it respected the settings in Prefs>Selection>Zoom to Selection checkbox (currently the zoom box at the bottom of the window respects that, but the same box in Navigator panel doesn’t — which also looks like a bug).
    Thank…

  12. Artboard copying with hotkey [ bug ]

    macOS Catalina 10.15.7
    Illustrator 25.0.1

    • Select current artboard, option drag to copy
    • Artboard moves instead of creating a copy
    • When trying to undo, artboard returns to previous location while artwork remains in new location
    • Required to press undo 5-10 times as artwork slowly inches its way back to the original artboard

  16. Graphics do not show when document is opened, only in preview

    When I open a document with several artboards that was created in the 2019 edition of Illustrator I can see all images in the preview - but when I open the document there are only empty artboards. How can I avoid recreating all my artwork?
    My Illustrator is updated to the latest edition and the technicians have deleted all previous versions. My computer has 16 GB RAM, x-64 and runs the Windows 10 pro.

  19. Guides not scaling correctly on copy/paste into large canvas

    If I copy a 5"x5" rectangle from a regular document and paste it to a large canvas document, it remains 5"x5", as expected.

    However, if I convert the same shape to a guide and then copy it from a regular document to a large canvas document, the guide becomes 50"x50". This really makes things difficult when copying guides and artwork together into a large canvas.

  20. Stroke weight defaults to 10pts on oversized custom Artboard

    If I create a new document one of the standard sizes, say Letter... then draw an object and apply a stroke... the stroke size defaults to 1pt as it should. However, if I define a new custom oversized artboard, say 500 inches square, then draw and object... when I apply the stroke, the size defaults to 10pts.
