New update, stroke profile bug
Just got the latest update and now my Width profile 3 on stroke settings is adding these little rounded bumps to the corners that were (prior to update) sharp. The end points are also slightly curved. Right side does not have bumps but has same curve when points on this profile used to be sharp. All of my settings and prefs have stayed the same. I use this stroke profile alot so I noticed this issue right away. Please fix. Photo attached.
Thanks

Dashed strokes in SVG are set to 0 when reopening in Ai, but are displayed correctly in the browser
1) Windows 11 / Windows 10 with Adobe Illustrator 28.4.1
2)
1. Open a new document
2. Draw a line with line tool
3. Set line to dashed with 10 5 1 5
4. Export file as SVG
5. Close file in Illustrator and reopen it in illustrator.
3) Expected result: Line still has dashing of 10 5 1 5 in Ai and in the browser
4) Actual result: Line has dashing of 0 0 0 0 0 0 in Ai, but looks correct in the browser3 votes -
Stroke arrowheads mislabeled
When changing the arrowheads on a stroke, the dropdown option images don't match the actual icon for the stroke arrowhead. It seems the the same arrowhead icon is previewing in the dropdown for multiple different selections. What you select is not what you get.

Stroke visible across all assets in a layer
Stroke lines are visible throughout the layer despite being aligned behind all objects. Have tried relentlessly to fix this issue - unsure how to proceed.

Select strokes by clicking anywhere on their stroke, no just the 'path' central part.
It gets tedious really quick having to always be accurate and select the invisible central 'path' of a stroke - why not allow us to select a stoke by clicking on any part of it, of it's pixels rendered on the screen. Like Freehand by macromedia used to allow. Just add it as an option in preferences.
So if you have a Red 20px thick stroke, you can select it by clicking on any of the red stroke as rendered on screen, rather than having to slow down time and space to be super accurate and guess where that central…

why did you just add 3 steps to a simple process
changing line weight in illustrator was simple: you have a 1 point line, you click the down of the up and down arrows on the left. It changes to .75, then .5 etc. Easy.
Now you click the down arrow on the left and it goes blank! So I click the only arrow on the right for the list of sizes (which is a down arrow for no apparent reason) and the list starts at 1 point so I have to scroll up to see the smaller sizes. then click the one I want. why? Why would the programmers of…

Glitch in outlining a dotted stroke
macOS Catalina 10.15.1 Illustrator 2020
I made a line, applied dashed line, adjusted gap(2,4) and dash(0,01) to make it look like dots and outlined. Random dots have been cut in half after outlining.
It never happened to me before.3 votes -
Stroke appears to have Brush applied with no actual Brush
When I am in ANY artboard, I draw a .0139" x .0139" OR 1px x 1px square to center my artboard. I zoom in to as far as I can to then pull my ruler from top left to center the artwork on the page.
2 things,
1 the square (1px x 1px) appears to have a brush stroke on it as it does NOTAND
I cannot pull the centering tool (in ruler, Ctl-R ) onto my artboard to then center the coordinates.
2 votesGPU mode Ai uses by default is fast, but can be imprecise at high zoom levels. To see the art the way it’s drawn, with no precision rounding artifacts, toggle it to CPU mode instead.

OBJECT > EXPAND creates SPIKES in geometry
I use Illustrator to create emboss patterns for production tooling. When delivering my patterns, all geometry must be EXPANDED and represented as real vector lines so that the engravers can mill out the tool.
Recently, when I EXPAND the patterns I make (OBJECT > EXPAND), I'm starting to see random SPIKES in my outlined strokes when using the EXPAND tool in the menu. This problem is reproducible on my machine, but it does appear to be random. Sometimes it does it, and sometimes it doesn't. My vector curve is stroked at 0.03 inches.
This problem is causing CRITICAL delays in…

線幅を変えると矢印から線がはみ出る
ver26.5（最新）。Windows10使用。
線幅を変えるとパスの終点の矢印から線がはみ出る。
例えば、線幅17に対し、終点を30％などにすると矢印から線の端がはみ出てしまう。
矢印11、12、13、14が該当。
ならないのもありしたが、全部調べていないので、他の矢印もそうなるかもしれません。2 votes

Stroke Aligned to Outside of Filled Shape and Fill of Shape Not Aligned
When aligning a stroke to the outside of a fill area, there are areas in which the fill area is incompletely filled, or the fill extends beyond the stroke.

The white-filled circle arrowhead has some very strange geometry.
The white-filled circle arrowhead in Support Files/Resources/en_us/Arrowheads.ai has two doubled points in the black circle. This results in unexpected imagery when a path is given this arrowhead, expanded, and has further effects applied.
Screenshots: outline view, and outline view with half of each point pair selected and moved down 1pt.
This was discovered in 25.3.1 but I bet it's been lurking there long enough that it predates your current source control tree. :)

Path+stroke profile weirdness
Plz examine the file. Two paths with different width profiles when reflected. Bottom one behaviour is good, top path behaves badly. Why would this be ?

Arrowheads
Latest update breaks 30 years of arrowhead usage and procedure.
I don't want to scroll thru 40 different heads.

Stroke stays black even when changing colour
Stroke stays black even when colour is changed. Only way to make it another colour is to expand appearance, which means losing original unless saved off the artboard
2 votesProbably it’s the same problem as this one, and you have accidentally created a complex appearance either for the layer or the path. You have to open the Appearance panel and study the stack of attributes.
