3. Mouse click sticking

   This problem only seems to happen in Illustrator. I have not seen this issue when I use Photoshop.

   Clicking with the mouse, does not always work as expected. It is almost like there is a long delay before the release is detected, resulting in a drag operation. Sometimes I see the spinner appear after I click. I have tried a different mouse, same issue. In the video, I am only ever doing a quick click, without moving the mouse.

4. Actions based on Scripts not saving after restart?

   From: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2191151

   I located another thread from December where the consensus seems to be that this is a long standing and known bug with Illustrator.
   Permanently saving scripts in Action Set doesn't work / Scripts werden nicht dauerhaft in den Aktionseinstellungen gespeichert.

   I have spent a good deal of time working with people here on the Adobe forums to develop a script to automate a very large function of my job, and now that it is completed it should be ready to pass on to members of my team so they can utilize it as well. The problem is that even though the scripts are loaded into the proper scripts folder and the Action works for running a batch off that script flawlessly, it disappears every time Illustrator restarts.

   Is this really a permanent bug with Illustrator? Is Adobe really just ignoring this problem?

   For those unaware, here is a screenshot to help demonstrate:
   thumbnail_Screen Shot 2016-08-04 at 12.04.15 PM.png

   I have created my own folder for custom actions. In that folder I have created an action titled "CAD Batching Script [Network]". I then followed standard procedure, recorded the action, told it to "Insert a Menu Item" and then selected the appropriate script from the Scripts menu under File. Hit stop on the recording, done.

   I'm then able to run the action off of the Batch function and everything works flawlessly.

   Then, the next time I re-open Illustrator after closing the program, the recorded parts of the action (highlighted in the red box in the screenshot) have totally disappeared. I tested this both in my custom folder and by placing the action in the Default Actions folder. Nothing seems to keep it from disappearing.

   Is there something I'm missing, or am I just forever out of luck and going to have to recreate the Action every time I open Illustrator and need to work off of that script for batch processing?

   Thanks in advance,
   Brooks

5. Cannot undo paragraph or character style changes or deletions

   If I make any changes to paragraph of character styles, I cannot undo them, even if I delete a style. Changes are not registered at all as undo states. The only way to undo is to revert to a previous save.

6. Unidentified dash / gap values get shown as zeroes

   Make a simple test (as demonstrated in the attached GIF).
   Make sure you test this after relaunching Illustrator.
   Open Preferences > Units and make sure you have all three parameters (General, Stroke, Type) set to Points.

   A. Create a new document based on Web document profile
   B. Create a simple rectangle
   C. In the Stroke panel enable Dashed Line option

   The first 'dash' value would be 12 pt (or somethin else if you general units are not points), and the rest of the fields would be empty, undefined. It means Illustrator uses the same 12 pt for the gap.

   D. Now create a document using Print profile
   E. Create a rectangle
   F. Enable Dashed Line once more

   Looks the same, right?

   J. Go to Preferences again and change the General units to Millimeters.

   Look at the dash-gaps values — for some reason all values but one are now zeros!
   While it might SEEM like 'whatever', it’s actually not, and this bug was not present in CS6.

   K. Here’s why it’s a problem. Create a duplicate of this rectangle and tab through all the dash and gap fields in the Stroke panel, confirming these zeroes for real.

   Now you have a rectangle with the same exact values Ai had before, but it looks completely solid!
   And if you select the original one — it suddenly has only the first value dash set, and not all of them.

   So Ai just lies.
   For some reason when units get toggled (and it’s common when you work in both media at the same time), Ai puts 'zeroes' — but it doesn’t mean 'undefined'. This was working fine in older versions (I checked CS6).

   This causes us to believe the dash settings are not what they are.
   And while it seems like rare occurrence — no, it happens regularly, and it sucks.

   Please fix it.

10. Unable to catch error that occurs when exporting empty artboard to PSD

    en_US

    When exporting Illustrator artboards to PSD using ExtendScript's exportFile, if the artboard does not contain valid PageItems, an error occurs and two alerts are displayed.

    
    

    The problem is that this error cannot be caught by a try syntax. It will stop the batch process with alerts.

    Also, if app.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevel.DONTDISPLAYALERTS is used to prevent the alert, it is not possible to provide detailed information to the script user as to why the artboard was not exported.

    Ideally, the design should be changed so that the error can be caught, or even an empty artboard can be exported.

    Steps to reproduce

    1. open the attached file empty_artboard.ai in Illustrator
    2. execute the script in the Script to execute section or the attached file psd_export.txt (please change the extension to jsx beforehand)

    Expected result

    Errors will be caught and an alert "Caught error" will appear, then safely exit.

    Actual result

    The error penetrates try syntax and the alert is displayed twice. The contents are as follows:
    1. Empty artboard(s) were not exported.
    2. The operation cannot be completed because of an unknown error. [!SEL]

    The error 2 starts to occur in Illustrator 2022 and does not occur in older versions such as Illustrator 2021.

    Workaround

    • Use selectObjectsOnActiveArtboard, etc. to detect empty artboards by myself to avoid the error (to be precise, it is necessary to ignore isolated points and other PageItem that are ignored by the PSD export function by myself).
    • Generate a Rectangle of the same size as the artboard without fill and stroke in advance and export it for avoid the error. An empty image will be successfully exported.

    Environment

    • macOS 12.7.3, 14.3.0(Apple Silicon)
    • Illustrator 2019(23.1.1) to 2024(28.1.0)

    Not sure when this error started, but it reproduces in Illustrator CS6 too.

    空のアートボードをPSDに書き出そうとしたとき起こるエラーをcatchできない

    ExtendScriptのexportFileにてIllustratorのアートボードをPSDに書き出すとき、アートボードに有効なPageItemが含まれていないとエラーが起こり、2つの警告が出ます。

    
    

    問題は、このエラーはtryで囲ってもcatchできないことです。バッチプロセスをアラートで止めてしまいます。

    また、もしapp.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevel.DONTDISPLAYALERTSでアラートを出ないようにした場合、スクリプトのユーザーになぜアートボードが書き出されなかったか詳しい情報を提供することができません。

    エラーをcatchできるようにするか、空のアートボードでも気にせず書き出すよう変更するのが理想的な設計です。

    再現手順

    1. 添付ファイルempty_artboard.aiをIllustratorで開きます
    2. 実行するスクリプトセクションのスクリプトか、添付ファイルpsd_export.txtを実行します（事前に拡張子はjsxに変えておいてください）

    期待する結果

    エラーはcatchされ「Caught error」とアラートが出たあと安全に終了します。

    実際の結果

    エラーがtry構文を貫通し、アラートが2回表示されます。内容は次の通りです。
    1. Empty artboard(s) were not exported.
    2. The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error. [!SEL]

    2のエラーはIllustrator 2022から出始めていて、それ以前のIllustrator 2021などでは発生しません。

    回避策

    • selectObjectsOnActiveArtboardなどを使い、空のアートボードを自力で検出してエラーを回避します（正確に言えば、孤立点などPSD書き出し機能に無視されるPageItemを、自力で無視する必要があります）
    • アートボードと同じサイズの塗り・線なしのRectangleを事前に生成して書き出すことで、エラーを出ないようにできます。ただし、何もない画像が書き出しに成功します

    環境

    • macOS 12.7.3, 14.3.0(Apple Silicon)
    • Illustrator 2019(23.1.1)〜2024(28.1.0)

    このエラーがいつからあるのかわかりませんが、Illustrator CS6でも再現します。

    添付したファイル

    • error1.png
    • error2.png
    • empty_artboard.ai
    • psd_export.txt

    実行するスクリプト

    (function() {
      var doc = app.documents[0] ;
      var psdOptions = new ExportOptionsPhotoshop() ;
    
      try {
        doc.exportFile(new File('~/Desktop/psd_empty_artboard_error.psd'), ExportType.PHOTOSHOP, psdOptions) ;
      } catch(e) {
        alert('Caught error') ;
      }
    })() ;

11. Mixed stroke colors become white when changing fills using CMYK spectrum in an RGB document

    There is a way to make objects loose their stroke colors in specific conditions.
    1. Create an RGB document
    2. Create two shapes
    3. Make them have same fill color, but different stroke colors
    4. Select both
    5. In Control panel Shift+click the arrow button next to the fill chip, to call the alternate UI with sliders and spectrum instead of Swatches view
    6. In this dropdown panel’s menu pick CMYK

    Strokes become white.

    This does not happen if the color mode in this panel is left RGB or HSB.
    Also, strokes become white if you pick a color in an RGB/HSB spectrum first and switch to CMYK in this menu after, or just click the spectrum with CMYK already chosen.

    Also it does not happen if strokes have the same color, only when they differ and mixed stroke chip is displayed ([?]).

    Please take a look at the GIF attached and try it yourself, using the attached test file.

12. Alt + Shift hotkeys for menu commands in the latest version are broken

    Any keyboard shortcut that uses both Alt and Shift sends Alt only when pressed.

    So if you have a 'Alt + Shift + T' hotkey assigned to something, pressing it will open Type menu instead ('Alt + T').

    ---

    Also, a hotkey that uses F-key with a modifier launches an action that is assigned to F-key without modifiers, but not the command.

    I have an action that uses F3 for launch.
    Then I make a new keyboard shortcut for a menu command, assigned to Alt+F3.

    I expect to run the command when I hit Alt+F3.
    Instead, Ai does not launch the command, but runs the F3-assigned action!

    Same happens if I have an action on Shift+F3 and try to run a command assigned to Alt+Shift+F3 — Ai tries to run the action and ignores the command.

    This issue is related to this request:
    Make Keyboard Shortcuts and Action panel both see shared conflicts
    http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/42726344

14. Illustrator often fails to build a smooth blend for paths with mismatched number of anchors

    Take a look at the file attached and watch the images attached.
    Two curves are blended: one has 4 anchors, another one has 5 anchors.
    The blend Ai build has weird irregular slits in the middle.

    If you expand the blend and select problematic anchors, you’ll see that positions are correct, but some handles get interpolated wrongly.

    This happens often in many other scenarios.
    The current workaround is to add more points to blend, trying to guess and control which point get paired with another.
    Another workaround is to cut curves in pieces and blend in chunks.

15. Add scrollbar to the Image Trace panel

    The 3d panel has a scrollbar, but the image trace hasn't.

16. An object with a freeform gradient fill makes the coloring control in the tool panel switched to None

    In the tool panel we have three indicator buttons, which show the current type of fill/stroke for the selection — Fill, Gradient, None.
    Illustrator switches it to None, when an object with a freeform gradient fill is selected.

    I can understand why it probably happens. Since freeform gradients are not technically gradients, and using this mode converts an object into a dynamic container for generating a triangular mesh, it makes sense for Illustrator to not display the proper indicator here — the container has no fill... but it makes no sense for a user. It is you who decided it’s going to be a gradient, it is given to use as a button in the Gradient panel, it should display the proper button in the coloring controls then also. Please make this consistent and respect your own rules.

17. Pressing Ctrl/Cmd+Enter in Color field no longer adjusts other color values proportionately with live color preview since 27.1.1

    Prior to 27.1.1, when live color changes were made, we were able to use Ctrl/Cmd+Enter after changing a value to proportionally move all other sliders, which is an equivalent of dragging a slider with Ctrl/Cmd key held.
    The face the preview is now live should not kill this old feature., since Ai surely can remember previous values.

    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminAkshaya Saxena (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    We have fixed the issue and a build with the fix is available in Beta.

18. A group with no appearance attributes is treated and marked like it has some

    1. Create two objects (e.g. rectangles)
    2. Group them
    3. Open Appearance panel
    4. Add a stroke to your group
    5. Remove the stroke (with the Delete Selected Item button)
    6. Open Layers panel and study the appearance 'ring' marker of the group — Illustrator now believes the group has a custom appearance, while there is none!

    If you click the Contents in the Appearance panel with the group selected, Illustrator will clearly say 'Group: No Appearance' in the top of the panel.

    This 'empty' appearance can be saved as Graphic Style even and applied to another object, giving no actual result, except for the 'solid ring' state again.

    This behavior leads to a problem with exporting the group as a vector shapes to PSD format.

19. Delete Artboards command can’t be recoded in actions

    You can’t force Illustrator to record a deletion of artboards in an action, whatever method you use — a button in the panel, a panel’s menu, with or without Insert Menu Item workaround.
    How stupid is this.

    EVERYTHING is Illustrator should be recordable.

20. An action set can’t be dragged into the topmost position

    For some peculiar reason an action set item can’t be dropped at the top of the list in Actions panel, like it’s shown in the GIF attached. To workaround this, you have to put it second, and then put the first one after it.
    Minor, but still a bug.
