Artboard Custom Resize Bug
Illustrator V22.0.1
2 problemsWhen manually updating artboard dimensions, the artboard itself no longer previews your changes, you have to click "Update while dragging" to see the size before closing the window.
Artboard dimensions sometimes automatically revert back to previous values, if the new values are close in number. For example changing 423mm to 420mm, the value in the box would revert back to 423mm immediately.
No specific files, this happens in general.
Many thanks,
Meg

Zero X and Y coordinates don’t match the artboard
when making a file exact art size. Trying to snap to my
X=0
Y=0the Transform pallet says i'm at 0 & 0 but clearly i am not and once i click off everything then re-select everything again i can make it 0&0. I am in a pre-press production setting and this slows down my whole process. Also the Align to Artboard selection is a huge problem.

Empty artboard name which changes itself when artboard is resized
I have a simple template for business card, made long ago, with a single artboard inside.
Today I created new document based on this template and AI22 has shown this single artboard with no name (which was never touched in template and always was default 'Artboard 1'). It displays as 'Artboard 1' in Artboards paleette, but tag is missing.
Next, when I add height to this artboard in Control panel, it got renamed to 'Artboard 2', both in tag and palette.
If I undo this and make change again, it got 'Artboard 3' and so on.
I expect this artboard…2 votesWe have the fix available in the latest release. Please update Illustrator using Adobe Creative Cloud application to the latest build for version Illustrator CC 23.0.

Incorrect file sizes
Importing work into After Effects adds 6 pixels to the file size — very generous. This software keeps on giving.

Contextual Task Bar Preventing Artboard Creation
Normally when you click on an object you can create an artboard to fit to that graphic. However, when the Contextual Task Bar is open it bugs out and doesn't allow this.

An empty document that makes Pathfinder Unite fail and a bounding box to become loose
I am sending you an empty Illustrator file that leads to Illustrator starts to glitch badly. These are not Illustrator glitches, but a change in Illustrator's behavior due to the open document. But behavior of the App that depends on open document is a bug itself isn't it?
This document is completely empty. And how can error be reproduced? Below are 2 examples:
The Unite operation does not work:
1. Open the document.
2. Create 2 intersecting rectangles.
3. Apply Pathfinder / Unite.
4. The operation is unsuccessful.Image rotation does not work:
1. Open the document.

Dimensions of this page are out of range
The original file i used to make a back wall design has worked for years now and every time i update it, it still works. UNTIL NOW. The image REFUSES to save as a PDF or anything, as it says the dimensions of this page are out of range... EVERYTHING is within the canvas but still refuses to work. If it saves as a PNG, it cuts off part of the sides, EVEN if i shrink it down WAY smaller into the box, it STILL cuts off stuff in the PNGS. What is wrong????? AI its self keeps freezing... yes…

Guides duplicate and fly away when grabbed
When I grab a guide (square made by me, not ruler) by the edge and drag it, it duplicates and the double is flying away, kind of like a floater in your eye

New Document has strange green lines, rulers, checkered background, and second artboard
My Illustrator recently updated to 28.7.1
Now, when I create a new document in Illustrator, the artboard/working area looks like the attached file.
I'm confused at what this is and the checkerboard background is messing up my vision!!
How do I go back to the plain dark gray work surface with WHITE artboard view?
Also, when I am trying to create 1 artboard, it keeps creating 2 artboards...one filling the whole background and 1 the size that I specified....

Copying elements undos artwork name changes
Copying an element (regardless of what it is) will cause one of the artboards to change it's name.
There doesn't seem to be an logic to which artboard gets changed. In one file with 30+ artboards the it was somewhere in the middle.

SVG Imports with missing/changing colors
This svg file opens correctly in browsers and even converts correctly in Inkscape, but in Illustrator all the colors change.
I'm using the latest illustrator as of May 2024 on Windows 11.
I tried attaching the SVG file but it gets removed for not being supported, nice...

Any document created using Film & Video document profile gets a second 14400×14400 artboard
When creating a new document in the HDV/HDTV 1080 or other Film and Video-related workspaces, the artboard is initially created with the correct size. However, as soon as you add any object to this workspace outside of the borders of the artboard, a new artboard is automatically generated, and it is massive. This forces the user to manually remove the second artboard, which is unnecessary.
1 voteThe second artboard is not a bug, but a specifically designed behavior for later import to AfterEffects. It gives AE enough room to avoid clipping of the layer content to the main artboard size (basically a dummy for a pasteboard).
Here is a quote from The Adobe Illustrator WOW! Book (found here: https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/146842/huge-unwanted-artboard-created-by-default-in-adobe-illustrator-cc-2020):
Тo create a composition to import into After Effects, use the Video & Film Document Profile (Film & Video in CC). This creates two artboards — one large artboard that serves as a "scratch" area for objects used later in AE, and one sized for your chosen video format.

Artwork moves separately from its artboard when Undo is called
when you move an artboard and have 'move artwork with artboard' checked in the properties panel (and in preferences) everything works going from point A to B. Unfortunately when you want to undo your work and use the key command 'command z' the artboard moves back to its' original location but the artwork does NOT. you have to use 'command z' several more times for the artwork to reposition itself to its original position. This makes no sense. why are 2 items that were moved at the same time in one pass not reposition themselves (back to pt. A) in…
