  1. Arrowheads

    Latest update breaks 30 years of arrowhead usage and procedure.
    I don't want to scroll thru 40 different heads.
    It's not necessary to break what was working for decades.

  2. 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

  3. Changing the size of a graphic will not remain stable and does not maintain it's location point.

    I have a graphic that uses the top-left as the alignment reference point. It is on an artboard that is positioned in whole numbers (no decimals).

    I want it to be at X: 20px and Y: 20px
    I want it to be W: 700px or Y: 700px (either one not both)
    I do not want the position of X or Y to change from 20px.
    I want to maintain whole numbers

    What happens instead:
    When I resize the graphic it will not maintain a whole number and it changes the position/location of my reference point. I have snap to pixel…

  4. Strokes stop working properly.

    Ever since version 28.7.1, after a bit of time, today was less than 2 hours, strokes can no longer can be edited.

    Changing "Align Strokes" changes nothing, stroke size changes nothing. Changing caps changes nothing. This happens to both new and old strokes on both new and old paths/shapes.

    Currently restarting the app seems to work around & reset it, but only for a few hours, then it starts happening again.

    P.S. This is on a Mac

  5. Default line stroke color needs to be black and no fill for line segment tool, it keeps reverting back to no fill/no stroke color

    This has been going on for a very long time so I'm sure many others have seen this by now. I do A LOT of work using the line segment tool. Nearly 50% of the time I am using it, the stroke color or fill selections change on the tool. It needs to be set on default with no fill, black stroke color, with either .5 or 1 pixel (should be selectable in settings). Please for the love of anything... fix this silly problem.

  7. Colocar novamente as opções da janela de traçado

    Não é possível que uma versão nova tenha um retrocesso e fique limitada em algo tão básico como modificar os traçados, falei com o suporte e me confirmaram que realmente não tem mais, não posso modificar o traçado básico para ter pontas ou ser intermitente ou ficar interno, centrado ou externo à forma... que retrocesso é esse?

  11. Dashed lines not working

    I am running Windows 10 Pro 22H2 and using AI Version 27.5.

    I am trying to add dashed lines to a line segment which has the colour R165 G25 B130, they are also on the same sub-layer. I select the setting to add it but it does not visually appear dashed.

    However, it does work on another similar line of a different colour.

    I also cannot change the colour of the first line as well.

    The video attached shows the issue.

    How can I fix this issue?

  12. Stroke width is scaled along with the element it is applied to

    The stroke width is scaled along with the element it is applied to (transform="scale(sx sy)") if the scale values (sx, sy) are different. Stroke width is not scaled if the scale values are the same. Ideally stroke should not be scaled.
    Workaround for the browser is to use vector-effect='non-scaling-stroke' attr, but it is still not being supported by AI.

    This need some clarification.

    I don’t think I can understand the problem.

    Illustrator is capable of scaling strokes with object, it the corresponding option is checked. When it’s enabled, it does not differ between uniform and non-uniform transformations. So, is it a feature request and not a bug report, or am I missing the point of it?

  13. Illustrator 2022 changing stroke with changes the width height

    Every time I change the stoke width of a line, it scales the height or width - even if in scale I've unselected 'scale strokes and effects'

  15. An object's stroke thickness when it is copied and pasted

    I have scales strokes and effects checked off in preferences and under transform but even if not, the problem persists. When I create an object with the blob brush tool, and I color it in, then copy and paste it, the stroke thickness changes (thicker or thinner). I am not changing size, just copying and pasting it.

  16. Stroke weight is not showing when we increase in small number, stroke weight appears only the point is more than 1000

    When I try to increase the stroke weight in small number it is not visible,
    If the stroke weight is more than 1000pt only then it is slightly visible.

    I am facing this issue from 25th June onwards... not sure why it is

  17. Stroke thickness resets when adjusting gradient direction.

    Combination of two Categories: Strokes and Gradients.

    Evidence: https://youtu.be/_w8UG_fvm1I
    Disclaimer regarding evidence: The canvas is rotated by 60 degrees, due to the project I am working on.

    When I adjust the gradient direction (by pressing G on my keyboard), pressing & dragging in the paint-group would reset the thickness of the strokes that are involved in the paint-group. Hence not allowing the thickness of the strokes to stay constant, hence disturbing the preview of gradient.

  18. Drawing shapes using any tool ignores colour and stroke settings

    Drawing a new shape either using the automated tools of square/ellipsis etc or when drawing when the pen tool, the stroke stays the setting of a previous setting, despite what is displaying. Likewise, the colour shows the 'correct' setting but retains the setting of a previous setting.
    I have closed Illustrator and restarted the application but it's still happening.
    Operating system: macOS Monterey version 12.4
