  1. Illustrator CC won's allow me to update the artboard size in Options panel.

    When I change the width and height the size automatically reverts back to a size that is some 20 pixels off. I need the artboards to be precisely 2160x1920 which is the size they were when created, but somehow they change to different sizes like 2180x1916. When I try to update the size in the field, as soon as I click off the field the dimension goes right back to the old, incorrect dimension. I cannot save it out to the correct dimension. I can drag the size of the artboard with the artboard tool, but that is impossible to…

  3. 画像配置の際のフォルダ When placing or relinking images, Illustrator no longer remembers the folder location

    画像配置の際、複数回使っている同じ画像でもフォルダを記憶してくれず、大変に困っております。
    以前のように、一度フォルダを指定したら同じ場所を自動的に参照してくれる仕様に戻していただきたいです。
    制作作業において非常に不便で、効率に大きく影響しています。

    When placing or relinking images, Illustrator no longer remembers the folder location — even for multiple links that use the same image.
    It would be very helpful if Illustrator could once again remember the previously used folder, as it did before.
    This current behavior is extremely inconvenient and has a serious impact on workflow efficiency.

  4. 別名で保存で「別名で保存」のダイアログボックスが表示されません

    illustrator 26.5(64bit)にて、別名で保存ができません。ファイルメニューから別名で保存を行っても、ダイアログボックスが表示されません。
    複製を保存は、正常に機能します。
    環境設定の削除、再インストールの実行、USBドライブの取り外しと試しましたが、正常に動作しません。
    前バージョンは問題がなかったのでバージョンアップによる不具合と思われます。

  6. Objects stuck in RGB colour space in a CMYK document

    I'm working on a print document in CMYK and reusing some elements from a file created in RGB. When I go to change the colour of the text for example in the new CMYK doc it refuses to let me change the object to CMYK.

    For instance, I want the text to be 85% K but whenever I input these swatch values it automatically switches back to RBG (R77 G77 B79).

    This has been happening in Illustrator on my desktop for months, it's something I run into almost daily even after updating the software.

  7. Cursor in palettes doesn't highlight the content

    OS X 10.15.6, Illustrator 24.2.3

    • If you are in a field in the transform palette (e.g. the x-field where you can define the x-position of an object) and then use the tab key to hop to the next field [y-value] then usually the content of that field is highlighted so that you can simply override the existing value. Now the cursor jumps to the end of the field value and instead of overriting it adds the new value that you type. Very annoying as every other field is not doing that.

  8. Selection Tools Not Identifying Color Swatches

    Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6
    Adobe Illustrator 2020

    With the new release of Illustrator 2020 we are experiencing issues with the swatches applied to art being properly identified in the Swatches panel.

    Both the Open Arrow Tool and Closed Arrow Tool are not correctly identifying color swatches applied to art when clicking and dragging to select.

    • Select Open Arrow Tool
    • Click and drag to select art

    Expected Result: Color swatch that is applied to the art will be selected in the swatch panel
    Actual result: Question mark appears in the swatch panel
    • On the same art using Open…

  9. Parts of image becomes invisible in preview mode

    Every now and then when I rotate, move or resize objects, parts of my image become invisible, like there were rectangular shaped holes cut through it. I have to go to "Outline" and back to "Preview" to make it look normal again.

    I use 23.0.3, latest Windows 10, Nvidia GTX460.

  10. Changing colour by pasting code doesn't register as a change / can't save.

    I've got a pallette file (yes I should make a swatch), but that's not the issue.

    If I copy the code from one colour, then select an object in a different file and paste the code into the box… The program doesn't register a change has happened.
    So when I "cmd+s" it doesn't register and my assets don't update in AE.

    Please get in touch with us at sharewithai@adobe.com or any of the other support channels.
    Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.

    It will take some time for font to be available inside Illustrator. Best way to check in the font has synced it to to Adobe creative cloud application and review the activity stream in Home tab.
    If it does not work even after the activity tab shows that the font was synced then either restart the Illustrator or wait for some time.

  15. Using Pencil Tool results in error

    Unfortunately, the pencil tool still doesn't work for me. I received this unknown error, which I've attached a photo of. The only workaround that I've been able to use is by using a 3rd party plug-in (Astute Graphics Sketch Tool) to use instead of the pencil tool. I don't understand why this bug has been so difficult to fix

  17. 「グリッドを表示」と「アウトライン表示」を同時に選択するとクラッシュする事象

    illustrator v29.7.1にて、「グリッドを表示」と「アウトライン表示」を同時に選択すると即座にクラッシュする。

  19. Cursor no longer shows/flashes in Save As: field when Saving As or Saving a Copy

    Illustrator 29.4 Mac OS 15.4 (Sequoia)

    After updating Illustrator to 29.4 I noticed that when I am doing a Save As or a Save a Copy, the current file name is highlighted in color in the dialog (which is per usual) but immediately the color of the highlight becomes gray; when I use the arrow key to move the cursor within the Save As: field (to change or delete part of the current file name), the cursor vanishes and I no longer can see which characters it is between. I can choose to engage the Shift key in order to…
