Stroke weights ing symbols change to random sizes
When working with dynamic symbols, the stroke weight changes to random sizes from extremely thin almost non-existent to 1000pt - sometimes affecting a select few instances of the symbol and sometimes affecting all. This happens sometimes when saving the file and reopening, when changing fill colours of instances, when editing the original symbol (double clicking onto a symbol and clicking out), when duplicating an instance.

Illustrator forgets to undo the document color mode switch
Here’s a simple test.
1. Create and RGB-based document — the title says 'RGB'
2. Draw something
3. Change the color mode of the document into CMYK — the tab’s title changes accordingly (notice the History displays the generic 'Undo' instead of expected 'Document color mode CMYK')
4. Draw something else again
5. Start undoing steps, either with Cmd/Ctrl+Z or with the History panel. When you reach up the first object drawn, the tab’s title should display RGB — but it still says CMYK! ...and if you hover over the title, the hint appears saying it’s RGB (or not!) ...and…2 votes -

Gradient panel bug
I can't scroll in the Gradient panel like in the Libraries panel where i can see the other options or like the Properties panel when there's more options, but the space is not enough, but you can scroll so you can see the rest. And also the little panel where you can see the default styles of gradients is taken so much space and you can't minimize that space, that could be good, or just leave a line where you can see a limited or recent styles chosen but then you can click so it expands and shows you the…

After updating my system to Sequoia 15.7.2, the text tools stopped working.
After updating my system to Sequoia 15.7.2, the text tools stopped working.
Any action I perform on the text, such as changing the size or font, produces no result. The app slows down significantly. My work has completely stopped because of this.
I have the latest version, 30.0, installed.
I tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator, but that didn't help.
I also tried installing an older version, but the result was the same. Is Illustrator incompatible with the new Sequoia 15.7.2?Any ideas?
2 votesSeems like uninstalling Wacom driver could help in this case. If it doesn’t and you have the same exact problem — please upvote and leave a comment.

Blending tool undo
Whenever I undo one shape inside the blended elements, it doesn't go back to the initial position. Instead, it stops mid way and the CMD+Z button moves it back 1 pixel closer to the initial position. Moving the object is also a challenge where the second I release the mouse click, it shifts further away.

A generative fill prompt errantly claims it's a violation of guidelines
"A painterly sun in the style of Vincent van Gogh" causes a big red error to be displayed claiming that the prompt violates guidelines. Van Gogh's works are all public domain and should not raise any exceptions like this.

The Eraser Tool sometimes deletes entire blocks of geometry
The Eraser Tool, even with a size of 0 pt (but also with 1 or 2 pt), sometimes deletes entire blocks of geometry, sometimes draws a gap in the geometry (as it should always do). This bug has always existed, you have never fixed it. Often, to make partial deletions of the geometry, I have to use other software (such as CorelDRAW).

Problem with Eyedropper tool on text
Illustrator 30.0 on Mac Ventura 13.7.8
When I try to use the Eyedropper tool on a text, it only samples the object's top Appearance, not the text's at Character level.
In the sample video, the characters should become grey, with the text object having a white outline behind. But you can see it only picks up the white outline and not the character colour.
My Eyedropper tool is set to pick up everything (all boxes are ticked).

Generative Expand ruins stroked linework
Please fix the Generative Expand. It ruins your linework and makes random lines on object. It becomes impossible to work around because even the scissor tool cant cut it since there is a ton of nodes.
It also gets complicated with the shape builder as that tool ruins the stroke weights.
Lastly the stroke / fill thing it keeps swapping it to fill instead of stroke then you have to re put the lineweights every single time.
Some of the parts of the lines even get removed.2 votes -
Sometimes Alt-dragging a Variable Stroke Width width handle results in the other side of the handle snapping to 0
Sometimes Alt-dragging a Variable Stroke Width width handle results in the other side of the handle snapping to 0. Very unexpected behavior.
I have not as yet found a repeatable test case for this, perhaps now that I've posted this bug I will try to isolate it the next time this happens to be and add it here :)

拡大縮小
バージョン30.0で拡大縮小ツールで「パターンの変形」のみを行おうとした際、ダイアログ上で「オブジェクトの変形」「パターンの変形」の両方のチェックが入った状態（もしくはオブジェクトの変形からパターンの変形に変更）から、「オブジェクトの変形」のチェックを外して「パターンの変形」のチェックのみにして実行するとパターンの変形が何度やっても実行されない。（最初から「パターンの変形」のみにチェックが入っていた場合のみパターンの変形が実行される）
場合によっては、その後のオブジェクトの拡大縮小も挙動がおかしくなるので再起動が必要になる。
なお、他の変形ツールに関しては未確認。2 votes
