Custom scripts from CC2108 not working in CC2019
The big power of Illustrator is its ability to run scripts. I built my workflow around some important scripts. Upgrading to 2019 made them non-functional.
It would be great, if there was a way to update scripts as well.

Transparent PNG linked into AI drawing
I've exported transparent PNG's from Photoshop, and I'm trying to work on an Illustrator drawing with them, so I can eventually put them into my InDesign doc. So, I link in a PNG to Illustrator and it decides to read it as though it has a white background. So, naturally, I don't realize this because I'm working on a white artboard until I get into InDesign and the art is blocking the master, leaving me to go back into all my illustrator files to replace a linked file with embedded artwork. What's the point of linking a file if it…

Dialog boxes appearing on second display
I run Illustrator CC on an iMac (5K, 27-inch, late 2015) running Mojave, with a secondary ViewSonic display for browser windows, etc. I do my design work on the iMac display. Sadly, all of my Adobe Illustrator dialog boxes (save, etc.) appear on that second display (this has been the case for the last few CC releases, and predates Mojave)—it got so annoying that I disconnected the second display for a while. No issues with the other Adobe apps I run (Photoshop and InDesign). Would love to see this resolved.
1 votePlease upgrade to latest Illustrtor version 23.0. We did fix something similar. However we do recommend and support Illustrator only on primary monitors

Application Frame & Tabs bar
Often when opening a file & launching the application the tabs bar is inactive as you can see in the attachment.
Disabling the application frame "fixes" it... but still, it's irritating.1 vote -
Legacy shape-drawing functionality is missing
I do not want "smart" shapes by default. My biggest gripe is that one cannot easily draw shapes in rapid succession. For example, if I draw a circle and immediately want to draw another, say, centered around the anchor point of the previous, I have to CMD+SHIFT+A to deselect the previous shape. Otherwise the shape tool is no longer a shape tool but a TRANSFORM tool.
1 voteYou can switch off the bounding box and smart widgets by pressing shortcut Cmd + Shift + B and can use the drawing tools as legacy tools.
You can also select View→Hide bounding box for the same.For reverting back to current state again press the same shortcut or select View → Show bounding box
Hope this would help achieving your workflow.

The position of the right-click menu doesn't match the 4K screen (200% scale)
Illustrator version: 22.1 (64-bit)
When right click in the document, the position where the menu appears is incorrect.
If the mouse cursor is closer to the top-left corner of the screen, the menu position is closer to the cursor.
If the mouse cursor is farther from the top-left corner of the screen, the offset between the cursor and the menu position and is greater.Please see my screen record for details: https://youtu.be/KY_9y_SuCCk
1 voteHi Digidea,
Can you please verify the same on the latest version of AI ie. 23.0 released on 15th Oct 2018?
Thanks & Regards,

Use of Asset Export panel modifies existing SVG when closing without saving changes
When using the Asset Export panel in Illustrator, if an SVG is exported with the same name as the currently open file, when that file is closed without saving changes, the existing file is modified.
Specifically, a <metadata> element is added to the SVG, which results in unexpected behaviour when trying to use the SVG in an HTML document for example.
This is part of my current workflow because Illustrator creates better SVG exports than XD. Therefore I am exporting an SVG from XD, then opening it in, and re-exporting it from, Illustrator. Every time I repeat that process, I…

Illustrator & Mohave
I performed the upgrade to Mojave 10.14 yesterday from High Sierra. Now I am dealing with some really strange & frustrating Finder & Adobe CC behavior. "An unexpected error occurred (error code -8011)" when I try to rename files in Finder.
Illustrator, instead of saving over my open working files, is generating new file versions named in numerical order -without my doing- and I am unable to change these filenames after closing them all and renaming them in Finder. And it sometimes skips a save, too. For example, when I hit Save in Illustrator, new file appears named "Filename 1.ai,…
1 voteIllustrator version 22 is not supported on macOS 10.14 (Mojave).
Please upgrade to version 23 to see if it resolves the issue.the error as seen in screenshot is form Apple Os, you may want to contact them to resolve finder issues

3D Extrude and Bevel - Rough color transitions
The 3D extrude and bevel doesn't seem to handle transitions between curved surfaces and straight surfaces well. There's a very rough color transition in the resulting 3D render where one would expect a smooth transition. See attached for an example.

Asset Export Undo Deletion
If I delete an asset from the Asset Export Panel, I cannot "undo" to bring it back. I would like to be able to do this in the same way as undoing to restore swatches, layers etc.

Creative Cloud Libraries can't add multiple swatches
I used to be able to click one swatch in my CC libraries and shift click another and right click and add all colors to my document swatches. This option has dissappered and now I have to right click each color and add to my document swatches one at a time.

program not responding
So I deleted my old version of Illustrator since Adobe kept sending warnings saying I was using a cracked version. So I went ahead and purchased the 1 year and now that the new Illustrator is installed, it just keeps freezing and saying program not responding. I liked the old version better plus it was already paid off

Essentials Classic Workspace is missing
I have students who do not have access to the Essentials Classic Workspace. If this was removed this is a BAD idea, particularly for education environments. Educators like myself spend a great deal of time producing project-specific videos using a particular interface configuration and if my students cannot access it the videos and my valuable time have been wasted.s
1 voteJim, Essentials Classic workspace is still there and won’t be removed, as far as I know. That is definitely a local corruption, and a clean reinstallation or Preferences reset is advised.
If you are still missing it, please comment back.

QTWebEngine Page on MAC
Hi,
I have a plugin created for Adobe Illustrator CC 2017/2018.
In the plugin I have a panel which acts as a container for a QTWebEngine page.
The page consist of several text boxes where I can enter text.
I can perform basic operations like cut/copy/paste/selection on windows but I am unable to perform these actions on Mac (Os El Capitan).
What I observed is that on windows clipboard will allow saving text on pressing Ctrl+C/X/V but on MAC whenever I press Command+C/X/V on Illustrator, it is trying to invoke Edit menu for Cut Copy Paste and the control goes…1 vote
