  1. GPU renderer fails on complex appearance stacks involving Knockout Group

    I have an appearance stack that uses a scatter brush at 0% opacity to knockout parts of the underlying fill, thanks to Knockout Group being checked on this object.

    It does not seem to work on the GPU renderer.

    Some experimentation suggests that it does work if I shift the overall object's transparency from Hard Light to Normal. I haven't tried other opacity modes.

    I have included a file with an example path, as well as screengrabs of how it renders on the CPU and GPU previews, and the data given by the "system info" button in the Performance pane…

  2. pathfinder - unexpected behaviour inside script

    when I select two compound paths and subtract, I get a fully selected group.
    If I create an action consisting of just the pathfinder operation and run it from the actions panel, the result is identical.
    If I call this action from extendscript, the group sometimes is only partially selected. - and the following steps produce unexpected results :(
    It turns out that adding an extra object.selected = true can help.
    I observed this in 2022 edition, I have the impression that this did not happen in 2020 edition

  4. Coordinates not showing in Overprint Preview

    On Intel Macs running Monterey (Issue does not appear to happen on Apple Silicon Macs), with the GPU Performance turned off the coordinates do not show when dragging an anchor point. If GPU Performance is turned on it does work but only in Outline View.

    Steps to Reproduce
    1. Create blank file, have GPU Performance turned off
    2. Drag to create a new square object
    3. Turn GPU Performance on and change to Outline View
    4. Drag to create a new square object (Coordinates now show in Outline View)
    5. Change to Overprint Preview
    6. Drag to create a new…

  5. Circular Text Rotation different on newest update.

    Opening a file with perfectly centered text on a circle is now off center. Live rotating seems to make the text hop around the circle not conforming to the rotation.

  7. Rearrange artboard does not work with large artboards...

    Having an issue with the Rearrange All Artboards feature when using very large art boards. See attached screenshot. Two artboards, one 6x16ft and one 3x9ft. Rearrange All Artboards using columns only seem to give an error of: "Rearrangement would take some artboards out of canvas bounds." even though the artboard could be arranged manually with the same settings.

    Unrelated: Can you PLEASE allow uploading of videos again (specifically webm). It really helps when trying to communicate bugs and feature requests).

  9. Small objects rotating instead of scaling when grabbing corners of bounding box

    New laptop has forced me over to Win11 & the latest suite. Illustrator 26.3.1

    When trying to grab small objects by their corners to scale, it rotates.

    Expected result - Being able to scale!
    Actual Result - Rotating, immediately putting the object at 45 degrees.

    An old thread from 2018 ("Rotate vs scale") claims this may have something to do with scaling on high res monitors but was marked solved without being solved. This new laptop has a 4k screen.

    If you hover the cursor juuuust inside the corner it works, but anything outside and it's forcing rotation.

    If I…

  11. Scripting Issue on MacOS Monterey

    We had this script for Illustrator that will export PDF and images with predefined presets. This was working until some of our team upgraded their macOS to Monterey.

    When they tried to run the script it will create a PDF and images with different file names, we are expecting that it will have the same file name from the AI file.

    EXPECTED RESULT:

    AI File: 02020-MVP-3.ai

    Exported Files:
    - 0202-MVP-3-THUMBNAIL.png
    - 0202-MVP-3-FULL.png
    - 0202-MVP-3.pdf

    ACTUAL RESULT:

    AI File: 02020-MVP-3.ai

    Exported Files:
    - ai1655486566390202-MVP-3-THUMBNAIL.png

  12. Properties panel interface spacing bug

    The Properties panel is displayed with extra spaces between all the fields,
    it's to the point where you have to scroll down to view the quick actions.

    I tried resetting preferences and reinstalling yet it's still showing in the same way.

    I'm trying zooming in and out on the panel with Ctrl + mouse wheel but it doesn't seem to work.

    Here are some screenshots of the Properties panel

    Any proposition to find a solution to this annoying interface bug is welcome.

    Thank you

  14. Package dialog resets folder name when a new destination is chosen

    If you enter a custom folder name in the Package dialog, then change the location to export to, the folder name resets to match the file and does not retain the custom folder name.

    Expected behaviour is for the custom folder name to persist when changing the export location.

  15. Unable to open/paste/place images from AfterEffects generated PNG sequence.

    I'm getting error when I'm trying to open/place/paste image form After Effects (22.4.0 build 54) genereted PNG sequence. Png can be any size (tested with 1080x1920 & 640x640). Images had no transparency (solid white bg).

  16. Exporting to SVG returns different code after Illustrator updates

    I use Illustrator files as source documents for complex system maps that we export to SVGs for applications. With the most recent updates, the exports have significantly changed the output code for the SVG which is impacting the javascript interactions with those svgs. The first and most substantial issue is that in calculating the viewbox attribute parameters, Illustrator is NOW including hidden layers where it once ignored them. I use a background layer which mimics our system's background colors to more closely reflect the contrasts needed and hide that for export. But where once the svg tag exported as

  17. Color change with the CPU/GPU overview with an external display

    Hello, I am on a 14" MacBook Pro. 2021

    On the MacBook screen the rendering change (CPU/GPU) does not change the color and everything works fine.

    However on an external screen the GPU rendering gives bad color (often distorted and duller), by activating the CPU rendering the color becomes normal on the external screen.

    In GPU rendering on the external screen for example, the dropper does not pick up the right color (its link images).

    On the other hand, once the color has been cut in CPU rendering, we can put back the GPU rendering (the colors become desaturated) but…
