If a symbol contains clipping groups or freeform gradients, its bounding box is calculated based on bounds of clipped contents, not masks
If you convert a clipping group to a symbol, the bounding box for it will be calculated according to clipped art and not the clipping path, resulting in a larger box.
The same exact behaviour we had for rasterized clipping groups (now fixed).
Please fix this one too.23 votes -
Breaking links for several selected symbols at once doesn’t work
At the moment it is not possible to unlink several selected symbols at once with the context menu command. Illustrator will unlink the symbol that is at the top in the layer panel.
If you use the symbol menu command to unlink the symbols all selected symbols are unlinked.
Thank you!

Applying Recolor to selected instances of a symbol recolors the original symbol
If I want to change colors for selected dynamic symbols, using Recolor will affect not local colors, but the original symbol.
This makes little sense. If I wanted to change the original symbol, I'd edited it and made the changes directly to it. If I have a selection, I mean to change symbols in it only.To workaround it I can isolate my selection by locking/hiding objects I don't want to affect and use Select Same commands to recolor parts of symbols one at a time.

Lost stroke when copying dynamic symbol
Hi,
We use a lot of dynamic symbols in the fashion industry to make colorways and keep the link with the original sketch which is in black and white.
In Illustrator CC 2019 (23.1.1) and CC2020 (24.3) version on Mac and Windows, I noticed several bugs with the dynamic symbols:When I copy a dynamic symbol (CTRL + C / CTRL+V), the outline of the copy disappears.
When I copy a dynamic symbol (ALT + Drag & Drop), the outline of the copy disappears.
When I copy a dynamic symbol using CTRL + C / CTRL + F, the outline…9 votes -
スタティックシンボル化した画像にドロップシャドウが反映されない
詳細：
「オブジェクト」メニューからのラスタライズや
リンクの埋め込みなどで画像となったオブジェクトをシンボル（スタティック）登録し、
効果「ドロップシャドウ」をかけたところ、見た目に反映されず無視されました。
同じスタイライズメニュー内の「光彩」も同様の結果です。しかし、もう１つドロップシャドウを重ねると、今度は２つ重ねた結果が表示されました。
目玉マークでどちらの効果を消しても、１つだけだと無視されます。
「ドロップシャドウ」「光彩」の混在も、合わせて２つだと重ねがけの結果が現れます。
同じスタイライズメニュー内の「ぼかし」は１つでも反映され、本件に関わらない挙動でした。暫定的な回避策：
＊画像化したシンボルに対して「効果」メニュー内から擬似的な「ラスタライズ」をかける
＊シンボルの種類を「ダイナミック」に変える
＊シンボル化（リンク）を解除スタティックシンボル化した画像に限定されるアピアランス結果が現れることはもちろん
そもそも１つ目の効果が無視されること自体が問題です。
また、すでにIllustratorフォーラムで識者の皆さまにご意見を伺いましたところ
自分以外の環境下でも同様の結果が再現できております。（下記リンク参照）
従って、本件の内容がバグや不具合にあたるものとしてご報告させていただきます。同じ現象を再現確認した環境は以下のとおりです。

シンボルをコピペするとコピーしたものと違うシンボルオブジェクトがペーストされてしまう
Adobe Illustrator2022(26.5)
問題が発生したときに実行していた手順：
あるシンボルインスタンスをコピペすると、コピーしたものと違うシンボルインスタンス（シンボルパネルに登録してあるもの）が差し代わってペーストされてしまう。すべてのシンボルインスタンスがそうなるわけではない。
Adobe Illustrator2020ではこのようなバグは発生しなかった。想定していた結果：
コピーしたものと同じシンボルインスタンスがペーストされるべき実際の結果：

Duplicated symbols reverts to originals / or not!!
Illustrator 25.3.1 on MacOS Big Sur 11.4
Let's say I have 3 symbols, A, B and C.
A is the original symbol in my external Symbol Library file (blue in the attached video)
B is that symbol, imported into my current file and modified (I changed it to green in the video)
C is a duplicate of B, in my current file, also modified (red in the video)When I copy C, I expect C to be pasted. But it's actually B.
(in the video, red is copied but green is pasted)Moreover, when I try to "reimport" the original…

All symbol instances reset after in-place editing the master instance
Ai 2023 (27.7 it says in the info), MacBook Pro, MacOS Ventura (13.3.1 (a)). When I enter an in-place symbol editing mode, and, still in that mode, enter another in-place editing mode (so there are two nested symbol editing modes), and, delete some path in the nested symbol, all instances of that symbol get reset, and work (in our case a lot of work) is lost.
When I first exit the initial symbol editing mode, and then enter the symbol editing mode for the other symbol (thus avoiding the nesting of editing modes), the instances don't reset.
I didn't notice…2 votes -

stabilité
Illustrator est moins stable que la version précédente alors que des bugs sont censés être corrigés !
Et le "conseil" pour éviter le plantage est complétement inadapté puisque nous n'utilisons pas le logiciel cité.

Symbol transformation "Reset" button sometimes greyed out
Illustrator 25.3.1 on MacOS Big Sur 11.4
I have several instances of a Symbol on my Artboard, and each has been transformed.
Some of these instances displays the "Reset" button when I select them, some others don't, and I have no choice but to use the Symbol panel. Why??!?

Export svg doesn't work if symbol stainer used on a symbol
I have noticed that an svg export adds a character in the svg code on a symbol in which the symbol stainer was used. When I break the link to the symbol, the svg exports as expected. I have been able to repeat this error.

Symbols and fill & strokes
In Illustrator 26 (Mac, Big Sur 11.6.1), Symbols (static) now accept fill and stroke properties with the symbol selected (not editing the symbol). Traditionally, they have not been accepting any fill or stroke properties as those are defined within the symbol. These are not dynamic symbols.

Creating new symbol
As I was making a new symbol, I had another tab open of a house I was creating and in the midst of making such my laptop went blank showing some weird neon pink image of straight horizontal lines, and then it went blank and then after that my laptop restarted. It was only after I reported the bug to apple I realized looking back at my other tab on illustrator that the original image I was using for practice on illustrator got really messed up and can't use now.

Copying text inside a symbol group copies all text in that symbol to the clipboard
When I copy selected text inside a symbol it copies ALL the text in that symbol. It doesn't matter if the text is in the same instance or in a completely different one. If it is text and inside the symbol it will get copied. When I then paste the text that I think I copied it pastes everything.

Breaking link of scaled Symbol with "Scale strokes and effects" off will scale Symbol appearance back to original.
Illustrator CC 2018
Windows 10I have put a Symbol on my Artboard, and scaled it to 50% of its original size.
I want to break its link, and maintain its proportional appearance (i.e. stroke width half of original).
If "Scale strokes and effects" is off, stroke sizes are doubled (back to original value). You have to tick it on for it to work as expected.Is this a bug or a feature?
In the attached image, to the left is the Symbol (at 50% scale) broken with tick on, to the right off.
