Animated zoom bug (workspace flickers and turns black when in a group)
- Windows 11 (latest)
- Illustrator 28.3
- The screen flickers and turns black using Animated Zoom within a group. If I exit the group (using escape), the screen returns to normal. Animated Zoom works normally as long as I am not within a group.
The video I've uploaded shows me double-clicking a group to enter it, then using Animated Zoom to produce the flickering and black screen. I hit escape to exit the group, and the screen returns to normal. I then demonstrate that Animated Zoom works correctly when not within the group.
Thanks

Massive Lag Issue
Every time I open Illustrator, it takes an enormously long time to load. It continues to lag when I'm in the file, working on it - every action requires a wait time, from moving an object to typing a word. This makes using illustrator a massive chore.
This happens to all files, even ones that are very simple - at most maybe 10 individual elements (images and text.) I have the creative suite, so all things are up to date. This issue does not happen with Photoshop or InDesign, which run perfectly, so it's clearly not a memory issue or…

Expanding an Inside / Outside stroke creates barely open paths
- Create a rectangle
- Apply a thick stroke to it and change its alignment to Inside or Outside
- Expand Appearance for the shape
- Deselect the shape
- Grab Direct selection and carefully move the corner points at the top right, for both paths
It turns out Illustrator doesn’t keep these tidy! One is cut open, another has a doubled point! It leads to a problems later, when we try, e.g. to make corners rounded, or apply effects.
A current workaround is to apply Add (as Pathfinder operation or an effect) to the stroke, separately form the fill... and it’s taxing for memory,…

The menu does not respond well right after Illustrator launches
en_US
Immediately after starting Illustrator, the menu does not respond to clicks and only works once every two times. Also, the phenomenon occurs that opening a new document does not show up the first time. Focusing on another application and refocusing on Illustrator fixes the problem.
While investigating the cause, it seems to be triggered by the presence of an invalid plugin or its warning screen. Without it, it worked fine.
Steps to reproduce
- Put the invalid plugin into Illustrator's plugin folder
- Start Illustrator
- Click the File menu
Expected result
The File menu will open.
Actual result
Nothing happens. A…

Swatches panel does not remember the size of chips when toggling List / Thumbnails view
When I choose to display Large Thumbnail View in Swatches panel’s flyout menu, I expect Ai to respect my size choice and remember it, when I use the two buttons in the panel itself to switch List / Thumbnails modes.
Instead, Illustrator forces it to Small (which can be OK, since I never chose the List to be large) and does not even remember my previous choice when I switch back (which is totally not OK).
See the GIF, please.

PDF files made on large artboards get downscaled incorrectly.
When exporting a PDF from a document that's set to "large artboard" the resolution of linked images will get downsampled 10x as much.
In the screenshots I've provided an example of an Illustrator document that's set to large artboard mode. Artboard is an A4 format with an image that's 300 DPI.
I then export the PDF saying it should downsample images to 300 DPI.
Once I open up the PDF in an InDesign document of the same size, you'll see the linked file appears 10x smaller. Not only that, but if you look closely at the image, you'll see that…

'Share a review link to your file' advertisement dialog still pops when disabled
Sometimes, when I save a PDF file (at least in Illustrator Beta), I get this dialog.
I would like to see it go away forever.It pops up in the most inopportune moment — when I already decided to save a PDF and when I need to SAVE my data, and not to TRY something new. 'Come not between a user and his saved data'. Saving a file is an emergency operation — always, each time — JUST DON’T INTERFERE.
Even though I already chose to never see it again, I still get it. Just use 1KB of your Cloud…

Incorrect line weight scaling after vertical reflect command
With "Scale Strokes & Effects" turned on in preferences, using the transform panel to change the length of a line after it has had the vertical reflect command used on it will incorrectly scale the line weight.

ライブペイントオブジェクトにオーバープリントブラックを適用した際の問題
ライブペイントを適用したオブジェクトに対してオーバープリントブラックを適用するとライブペイント設定が消える。
macOS11.6
Illustrator CC2022以降再現手順
1. 線や麺の組み合わせでライブペイントを作成し着色する。
2. ライブペイントオブジェクトを選択し「編集→カラーを編集→オーバープリントブラック」を適用する。
3. ライブペイントに対して指定した処理が消え、閉図形外で保持されていた線も幅0.5pt、K100の黒に変化する。期待する結果
ライブペイントオブジェクトに対してオーバープリントした際、閉図形外のK100の線等以外にオーバープリント属性を適用せず、ライブペイントオブジェクトの状態を保持する。実際の結果
ライブペイントオブジェクトに指定した塗りなどの情報が消え、元から持っている線幅等の情報も一定値に変化する。代替処理
ライブペイントに対する「ブラックオーバープリント」は行わない。必要なオーバープリント指定は手動で指定するか、ライブペイントオブジェクト自体を拡張してから「ブラックオーバープリント」を適用する。7 votes -

Stroke Inside is unchangeable on a compound shape
If you make a compound shape from two paths with strokes set to Inside, then this is retained for the compound shape and shown in the Appearance panel, but it's not reflected in the Stroke panel and it can't be changed there.

Hiding a layer doesn't hide the guides
Since the Update 27.5 of Illustrator CC all guides oaf any file are showing whether or not their parent layer is visible or not. In my Graphic template i have a base layer for guides of different target sizes, areas and columns which are organized on named layers for each type of guides to easily show/hide them.
since the the last update (27.5 AI on macOS) ALL guides are showing up whether or not the layer containing these guides is hidden or shown which results in showing all guides for 4, 5 and 6 column layouts as well as all…7 votesA configuration modification has fixed this problem. It may take up to 24 hours for your Illustrator to show the changes resulting from this update.

Variable Font Changes
While working with a Variable Font in Adobe Illustrator 27.2, everything works fine, and I save and close the file I am working on. The next time I open the file in Illustrator, the Variable Font changes to an italic version. There is no easy fix to revert the text other than to select and adjust it.

Small objects don’t have corner widgets displayed
Small objects don’t have corners widgets displayed.
Take a look at the test file with small 3 rectangles.
The largest one does have its widgets, but two smaller ones don’t.
Once you scale them up to 110%, the middle one now has them.
Another scaling up — all three now have them.Yes, these are very small, hardly larger than 1 pixel! But what a difference it makes for a user? None, really. Ai is capable to display all of them and allow tiny transformation, like this scaling up. Why does rounding some corners should be anything different?

Fill/Stroke automatically snaps back to previous setting
Whenever I make a change to fill or stroke (color or on/off) it automatically reverts to the previous setting as soon as you click back to the artboard. (ie: select shape, turn stroke off, stroke turns back on, hit cmd+z to undo the stroke turning back on. This has been happening over multiple versions.

Wrong resolution calculation on pasting an image copied from Photoshop
Windows only it seems like.
1. Create a document in Photoshop, 100×100px, 72ppi
2. Copy the contents
3. Create a web/mobile-based document in Illustrator
4. Paste the copied imageIllustrator pastes 99.9875×99.9875px image.
It turns out Photoshop uses pixels-per-meter (biXPelsPerMeter and biYPelsPerMeter) to define the reoslution.
72ppi is exactly 2834.6472 pixels per meter.
Unfortunately, the value must be an integer (thanks to BITMAPINFOHEADER), so the convention is to use 2835 (which is 0x0B13 in hexadecimal).But Illustrator is going by the letter of the law (not the spirit) and converting 2835 to 72.009 pixels per inch.

Links panel showing wrong date created and date modified
MacOS Monterey (12.4) on
MacBook Pro with M1 Max Chip
Illustrator 26.3.1
All placed links show a creation and modified date of Feb 6, 2040. This is every file I open. It doesn't matter if the link is stored locally or on a server. The dates of the file stored in the folder are correct, but the info in the links panel shows the wrong dates. All previous versions of Illustrator show the correct date. This makes Illustrator 2022 unusable for me!7 votes -
カラーコード入力で色を変えると戻れない
Illustrator 26.2.1
windows10 21h1カラーモードRGBでカラーパネルもRGBでの作業で、カラーコード(#と6桁)を打ち込んで色を変え、前の色に戻したいなとctrl+z(取り消し)を押すと挙動がおかしいです。
まったく戻らなかったり、カラーコードを打ち込む前の操作に戻ったりします。コミュニティに投稿し、再現されている方がいるのでバグだと思います。
ご対応のほどよろしくお願い致します。
