  1. 保存時のエラー

    保存をする時、画面が出きっていない状態で次の動作を押すと必ずエラ〜メッセージが出る。例えば別名保存(コマンド+シフト+S)を実行し、まだ画面に保存先などの指名画面が出ていないうちに、デスクトップ(コマンドD)を押すとエラーになる。

    もう一つ
    保存形式を選んだ後に保存先のフォルダを選ぼうとするとそのフォルダ名が保存ファイル名に勝手になってしまう。

  2. Pen Tool: Close path Changes Handles

    Mac Mojave 10.14.6
    Illustrator 25.4.1

    When drawing with the pen tool, closing paths changes the initial path/handles drawn. This occurs every time the initial point plotted is a "click and drag."

    I tried to upload a screen recording (.mov) but it won't let me.

  4. Imported SVG: y coordinate of coordinate space translation is ignored

    In Illustrator 24.3.2, if I import an SVG file with the instruction
    transform=“translate(x y)”
    the y value reverts to zero when Illustrator displays the artwork.
    This appears to be fixed in version 25.4.1, however I am working with a critical, multi-user workflow, where we are not yet ready to advance to that version...

  5. Illustrator free transform bug.

    When I go to use free transform and I want to resize an object, it switches to rotate instead of resize.

    Compounding this I can be near the object but not close to the transform anchors and it will still register me as click the transform anchor.

    Frustrating as .

    very slow when exporting multiple PDFs. If I export page by page it works fine but when you switch to multiple PDFs at the same time the times become really long.

  7. Close file when saving as a .PDF

    Close file when saving as a .PDF

    This has been a HUGE problem since you guys changed the way Illustrator handles file saves.
    When you Save As... and save as .pdf the .pdf file remains open and editable. Which if you are in a fast paced environment and forget to close that 'New' file, you are editing a PDF and when you close it out and try to reopen you are now faced with a non-editable Illustrator file (especially if you unselect illustrator compatiblity).

    I have lost DAYS of work doing that one simple task, just so I could email…

  10. crashes opening .ai files

    AI worked fine on Saturday (25 Sep), today the same files crash the program. Update over the weekend? Can AI stop pushing updates that turn the program into a brick? In Alaska, we don't have unlimited bandwidth, we have to pay everytime I am forced to uninstall and redownload/re-install adobe programs for BAD updates. Why do we pay you to be in a constant beta?

  11. Art will not display, instead art flashes occasionally while alternating with an all-white & all-orange pasteboard.

    MacOS 11.3.1
    MacBook Pro 13 Inch M1 2020
    Illustrator 25.4.1

    Illustrator opens fine. however, once I open a document or create a new one, any interaction with the artboard causes the art to disappear and be replaced by flashing color blocks, sometimes white, sometimes orange, sometimes blue, and very occasionally I can see a glimpse of the art if I hold the command key.

    • Switching off GPU acceleration does not make anything better.
    • Uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator made the problem less profound. The art looks fine until I try to click on anything, then disappears into a field…

  12. The GPU preview renderer glitches out on distortion meshes when the canvas is rotated.

    See title, really. It might just be on distortion meshes inside of clipping masks; that's where I found it and I didn't bother checking for any further details.

    Illustrator 製品版フィードバックへのご協力ありがとうございます。

    ご報告いただきました「棒グラブの座標値の間隔が『7』の場合、座標の最大値が表示されない」問題の再現を確認いたしました。
    間隔が「7」の場合にのみ発生するようです。
    (最大値が「500000」以上で発生しやすいようです)

    今後、さらに検証を進めてまいります。
    開発に進展がありましたら、こちらでご報告させていただきます。

    今後ともよろしくお願いいたします。

  14. Masking/clipping a sprayed Symbol Set drops performance

    Was working with spraying symbols to create a pattern, and then masking it. Symbol spraying etc, work great, until you mask them (transparency mask or clipping mask) after which any editing of symbols grinds to a halt.

    Even after unmasking, the symbols still cannot be quickly edited.

  15. Moving a path to an invisible group still enables me to edit with Blob Brush

    I was painting a path with the Blob brush, then I decided to paint a new path on top of the other one and I didn't want to join with the original, so I moved the original to an invisible group and proceeded to paint the new path. For my surprise the original in the invisible group joined with the new path, I don't see this like a feature.
