  2. language translation problem in Illustrator Actions

    If you define the swatch none in Actions (in the Englisch version),
    in the Dutch version you get the message: the swatch can not be found
    (message in Dutch: Het staal kan niet worden gevonden)
    In the Dutch version swatch none = geen

  3. Eylemlerde Toplu İş de Veri Kümesi Adıyla kayıt yapmıyor

    Merhabalar,
    Değişkenler panelinden veri kümesi bağlıyorum. Sorunsuz çalışıyor. Eylemler panelinden yeni eylem oluşturup pdf olarak kayıt yapıyorum. Toplu iş ekranından az önce oluşturduğum eylemi seçiyorum, kaynak olarak veri kümesini seçiyorum, dosya adı bölümünde Veri Kümesi Adını seçiyorum ancak çalışmıyor, veri kümesi adıyla kayıt yapmıyor. Hatta ordaki 3 seçeneğin 3 üde çalışmıyor.

  7. Copy-Paste from CAD

    In Windows (or earlier versions, I don't know where could be the difference) I could simply Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V from a AutoCAD drawing to Illustrator and it would paste the lines perfectly (as a group though).
    Now in Mac, it pastes a temp file direction.
    How can this be fixed? Thanks!

  8. Pasting inbetween layers broken

    Pasting between layers broken. You've made my job impossible. I have no idea why I'm paying for my business to have this **** when Affinity exists. Every time you updated an app you break it. PLEASE fix this!

    Also, the requirements to 'log in' are dumb and exactly why Adobe seems to think it has to create problems so it can 'look good' by fixing things. STOP MESSING ABOUT.

    WIN11-26.3.1-Trying to paste images between layers-pasted image but instead it does nothing-Not point in showing an empty layer.

  9. Actions forget locations of files

    I have an action to add a proof header at the top of a page. The header is an Illustrator file that is in a fixed location. However, about once a week or so, the Action forgets the location of the file. I have to fix the action, then quit and restart Illustrator to restore it.
    Mac OS 11.6.7. Illustrator 2021 (Still on 2021 for compatibility with customers' art departments)
    Circumstances: action that opens, copies, closes, then pastes art on working document.
    When it works, it places the header on the page I'm working on.
    When it doesn't work, it…

  11. "Expand Appearance" does not expand my blend tool results

    Ive created the below highlighted graphic using the line tool, then applying arrowheads. I used the blend tool to create the in-between lines but needed the lines to be individually editable. Any reason why expand appearance messes up my arrowheads?

  12. Actions 'broken' 26.2.1

    Mac Mini M1
    Big sur 11.6.5
    Illustrator 26.2.1

    Trying to perform an action in a folder (save .ai to .eps) crashes illustrator at random moments, never ends.
    This action in 26.1 and before releases works perfect, same folder, same files.

  13. mise a l'échelle

    la mise à l'échelle de certain plans importés de DWG en PDF ne fonctionnent pas en mode paramètré....mais à la main oui - cela est donc peu précis et peu compréhensible pour du vectoriel:)

  14. scale or alt-move masked object: Mask scales as well or copies in the right place, just like normal objects

    When I scale or copy a complex object in which also masked sub-objects are present, the mask stays in its original position and size, even when it is linked.

    Sometimes I have to copy something 20 times and redo all the masking for that sub-object.

    Why does the Mask not behave lik all the normal objects that I copy and paste?

  15. changing view size objects no longer show, or if I change an object it doesn't change until I change the view size

    I'll draw a box and select it, then click off but it still looks selected until I change the view size, or it will just dissappear from view all together.. Also I can't get any key commands to work, like select all or duplicate. I can't select points by dragging the direct select tool, and it won't join points. The whole program is buggy and nothing works. I have big sur 11.5.2 and a trial of Illustrator 26.01

  18. Application de nuances sur objets groupés

    Problème nouveau : L'application d'une nouvelle nuance sur le fond et/ou le contour d'objets groupés ne semble plus changer la couleur de l'objet lui-même.
    Ainsi lorsque je sélectionne un objet après modification de la couleur du groupe il a conserve sa couleur initiale. Je ne vois pas l'utilité et cela complique la colorisation sur de grands nombres d'objets.

  20. Anchor Point w/ Tools Not Working

    I am using the latest verion of Illustrator on my updated Macbook 15.0, and I have to hand in a project BUT the anchor points are suddenly not working for pen, curvature, or anchor point tool. I dont know exactly how to explain it but when I try to add a line to my layer it doesnt set the anchor point where I want it, and doesnt add lines where I want them to be. When I try to move them they are very rigid in where to go, and I cant edit how long/short they are. Has anyone else…
