  3. Object being selected without mouse even being over said object

    I really don't know how to best describe this issue, but an object placed in my file is being selected when I click within a radius around the object, but not actually on it. It's a very strange issue and makes it difficult for me to select things around the object.

    See video for clarification (logo blurred because this is a clients project).

  5. PNG BITMAP

    I'm having a problem with the PNG bitmap, in Illustrator 2021 the image background was automatically transparent after import. However, in version 2023, the background is solid or not transparent.

  8. Links Placement Options does not preserve file dimensions after DRAGGING image into AI file

    Hi. The Links panel>>>Placement Options>>>Preserve File Dimensions does not work for linked images that are placed by dragging files into the Illustrator document. Preserve File Dimensions does work when using the Place file menu option or keyboard shortcut. We have a client that drags files into our master AI file. They prefer to work this way, and we are trying to prevent scaling. Has anyone run into this issue?

  9. Shift+Alt drag to duplicate in CC 2021 makes a duplicated image invisible

    When using Shift and Alt to drag to duplicate, the image to be duplicated does not stay visible. Therefore I cannot see up to where I want to drag and then duplicate. Used to work on previous versions, but somehow since upgrading, it doesn't work. Not sure if it is a setting that I must change?

  11. Image trace distorts the image

    Image trace creates a transparent line around the image so when added to swatches, the image doesn't go together. There is a transparent line around the swatch

  12. Linked images opening in Photoshop by accident

    Especially big files (exhibition walls etc.) operate so slowly that it often happens by accident that linked images open in Photoshop - although no double-click on the photo ever happened. I'd like to be able to turn off the image opening by double-click. If I want to edit images, I do this via the links panel.

  13. Transparent PNG linked into AI drawing

    I've exported transparent PNG's from Photoshop, and I'm trying to work on an Illustrator drawing with them, so I can eventually put them into my InDesign doc. So, I link in a PNG to Illustrator and it decides to read it as though it has a white background. So, naturally, I don't realize this because I'm working on a white artboard until I get into InDesign and the art is blocking the master, leaving me to go back into all my illustrator files to replace a linked file with embedded artwork. What's the point of linking a file if it…

  14. Image moves after embedding

    Embed image moves the image. See video.......again..

    Effects (mirror horizontally and vertically) had been applied to 3 of the instances.

    Win10, v22.1, 4k high DPI scaling 200%.

    This is apparently the only way to work with a singe path with more instances. Drop it in the cc library and re-place it again. That alone is just sad. Ever seen how SketchUp works? Please let me know if there is a normal way of doing this.

    Another hour wasted. How can anybody possibly work with this buggy pile of ****.

  16. Cannot check resolution (ppi) of an image in CC2018

    In CC2017 when you were resizing an image you could check its ppi, in CC2018 this is not possible. I checked in info panel with the image selected but this information is not even there.
