1. Zoom Tool – Zoom out sometimes doesn't work

   I often zoom out by selecting the Zoom Tool from the toolbar, then holding down 'Option' and clicking the mouse to zoom out. This does work most of the time, but sometimes it doesn't work and I have to click another tool option then click back to Zoom for it to work properly.

   Not sure if there's something specific I'm doing before to prevent it from working, or if it's just random.

3. Selection tool not working with Text

   Intermittently, the selection tool isn't working with my text. For area type, the bounding box will disappear (and "show bounding box" is enabled). When it re-appears, often there is a lag between when I move the text and when the bounding box follows it. If there is no lag, it is not uncommon for the bounding box not to move at all.

   OR my selection tool will (on area type) act only like a direct selection tool. And the transformation controls on each side of a rectangle of the type box will disappear. All I can do is use the selection tool like the direct selection tool and manually move each corner.

   Sometimes, when I click on one piece of type (area or point) another nearby type chunk will select instead. And any formatting I apply gets applied to the wrong text.

   Other times, I can't get the text to select at all. Or clicking on one piece of text will select something completely different (another line of type or a shape).

   This issue resolves itself if I close and reopen my document, however this is extremely disruptive to my workflow. It is also not a RAM issue- I just upgraded from 8gb to 16gb and had this problem on both machines.

   It seems to have started once I updated Illustrator or to High Sierra. For reference, I use an imac display monitor connected via hdmi cord to my laptop when working in illustrator. This issue happens whether I am working on the display screen or my actual laptop screen.

   Ive been working in illustrator for almost 10 years and I've never had this happen before (even on very slow machines in the earlier 2000s).

4. Media size setting of print dialog returns to default settings on changing color via swatches (or apply arrowhead via strokes)

   Any operating system (happens on both Windows and Mac)
   Illustrator Version 22.x or 21.x

   Change "media size" in print setting from "Defined by Driver" to any paper.
   Finish the print dialog ("Done" click).
   Select from the color book with Swatches panel, or set the arrow with the Stroke panel.
   When returning to the print setting again, the media size returns to "Defined by Driver".

   Does not occur before Version 20 (CC 2015.5).

   Possibility to occur when using settings that refer to another Illustrator file.

6. Unable to Resize Tool Panels (vertical axis)

   Cannot 'grab' the bottom edge of a panel in the right column to move up or down. Panel size seems 'locked.' This causes lots of wasted space in the right column tool set UI. This problem exists in both the Essentials workspace and the Essentials Classic. This was not an issue in previous versions of Ai. Thanks for addressing this bug!

8. 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.

9. 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

10. Moving a part of a blend with any Selection tool makes it move faster than expected

    In 29.7.1 (and Beta 29.9.0.6) when I move one object in a blend with any selection tool, inside or outside of isolation, it moves twice as much.
    This is similar to this problem with symbols — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50293512

12. Create Gradient and Create Swatch Info don’t get played in actions

    Swatches panel’s flyout menu now has two new commands, Create Gradient and Create Swatch Info.
    When we try to record these into actions, they get added fine — but once played, nothing happens at all: no gradient gets built, no color legend appears on canvas.
    As always, these new additions don’t get integrated into the application enough... Please don’t abandon them!

13. New document page dimensions resetting as I'm typing them

    Create a new document, type in desired page width, press tab to go down to the height field and suddenly it's reverted back to what was in those fields previously. Have to go back and re-enter the correct dimensions.

    There is a 2-page discussion about it here, including someone's video capture of it on page 1:

    https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/new-document-size-value-resetting-in-adobe-photoshop-illustrator-amp-indesign-2025/m-p/14936407

    Been having the same issue here for a little while. Just been dealing with it, but it's rather frustrating.

    I'm on Windows 10, 22H2, Illustrator 29.2.1 (64-bit).

14. Clearly inform about specific words "violating" community standards when generating art

    I think when 'one or more words' violate the guidelines, Illustrator should clearly inform us what words these are exactly.
    I guess this can be used for a bad cause, like to gather the database of restricted words... but I don’t understand why normal users should suffer because of this.

15. 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.

17. Modal panels for Free Transform tool, Dimension tool, Smooth, and Recolor pseudo-panel get hidden under other floating panels

    Free Transform Tool and Dimension Tool have several modes presented in small floating modal panels and appear only when the tool is picked.

    However, their z-order makes them hide under other floating panels, making it hard to find these pseudo-panels if a user choose to have real panels floating in the spot.

    It’s easy to locate them by hitting Tab, since they doesn’t get hidden like actual panels and toolbars, but you have to know the trick.

    I think their order should be above and not below.

18. 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') ;
      }
    })() ;
    

    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… more

19. Transparency panel shows 0% for the mixed opacity values

    When having a selection of art with mixed opacity values, Transparency panel should display blank, as Illustrator does for color values or stroke weights, but instead it lies they all have 0%.

    Take a look at the GIF attached.

20. Add scrollbar to the Image Trace panel

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