1. Some Colors are Yellow and Transparent When Exported

   Some of my colors (mostly the bluish white and other lighter colors) become yellowish and transparent when exported as an image (I exported it as .tif) or through the Library tab as assets.

   Even through Illustrator/InDesign, the print preview shows the wrong color and it prints the wrong color. On InDesign, it looks okay until you put it on Overprint Preview.

   The only work around we figured right now is exporting it as a PDF and printing through Adobe Acrobat.

   Attached are the exported image and a screenshot of the actual colors.

4. Excel graph conversation doesn't work on a Mac anymore

   When pasting an Excel graph into Illustrator, text is converted to rubbish on a Mac running OS High Sierra and the newest version of Illustrator.
   Also, when converting the Excel file to a PDF and opening it in Illustrator, the same thing happens. BUT, when opening the PDF in Acrobat, everything looks just fine.
   To make sure it wasn't an Excel bug I saved the file in an older version of Excel – that didn't solve the problem.
   I used the same Excel file on a PC and copied it into the Windows-version Illustrator, also converted the file to PDF and opened it in the Windows-version of Illustrator – and everything worked perfectly.
   The Excel file uses the Cambria font which I have installed on my Mac, I even tried changing the font to Arial just in case, but with no better result.
   What gives?

5. Text Boxes & resizing objects in Illustrator Behaving Strangely

   This might be difficult to explain, but at the moment, when pasting text within Illustrator (it can be from a different artboard within the doc, or from a different Illustrator doc, or Word, basically it doesn't seem to matter where the text comes from) or if just create a new text box and type within it, and try to resize the box, it seems to create more text boxes within the main box, and the text would 'snap' into the smaller box. If I stretch the box wider, the text will 'snap' back into the bigger box again, and I can then delete the randomly created text box as it is empty and not affected anymore. If I keep moving the edges of the text box around, every time the text within it is affected by moving or not having enough space it will just pop a new box. It will carry on indefinitely as long as I'm shifting the size around.

   This only happens when creating text boxes that you can resize without affecting the size of the text inside it. Typing without a text box seems to be fine. It has also started doing it with any objects within Illustrator. For example, I create a basic rectangle shape. Then, using the bounding box, I drag a corner to resize it, and as I do that, it is generating more rectangles as I go. In the layers panel, they are listed as normal, as if I duplicated the shapes or text boxes.

   Here is a screen recording: https://drive.google.com/a/giuliodecandia.com/file/d/1Uu2KZfbD21msW4OBIXA60zVcZIfzhJgc/view?usp=drivesdk

   It's the latest version Illustrator 23.0.1 running on MacOS Mojave 10.14.1

6. Properties panel showing wrong properties and text attributes all the time

   Properties panel don't reflect correct properties and font kerning and size were not reflecting in the the properties box. Changing a text box affects another text and not the selected text. An yes, I have the latest version and have replaced preferences many times.

7. GPU performance color

   Illustrator CC 2019
   Mojave 10.14.1

   Bright RGB red/pink appearing correctly in swatch, but washed out when filling a shape with same colour on artboard.

   Only way I've found to fix this is to turn off GPU performance and the colour then appears bright and correct, but with GPU off live drawing is very laggy.

   Any fix for this??

8. SVG Export Distortion

   I am having 0 success with Adobe Illustrator exports that incorporate filters. Some are stock images from Adobe stock that have polygonal patters. Others are 3D text rendered objects. Others are layers built with a variety of transparency filters and opacity settings. The SVG exports are not usable and we are resorting to .png files until we solve this. I saw a similar post that was unresolved: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-bugs/suggestions/33118615-sizes-and-coordinates-get-distorted-in-svg-export
   I am using export settings with Styling: Presentation; Images: Preserve; Object ID: Minimal; 2 Decimals; Minify and Responsive checked. Other modifications to these settings has not worked.
   Additionally, many of the Adobe Stock images, including simple icons, have extra points and require extensive cleaning to achieve a clean SVG export. I would recommend that Adobe stock set requirements for submitted artwork to have clean export SVG feature which is preferred for responsive web development.

   Increasing the Decimals precision from 2 to higher value should fix this issue. Please try this and update the results.

11. Freeform Gradients won't load in complex object groups/compound paths

    In Illustrator 2019, freeform gradients were unable to render in complex compound paths. I was attempting to add a freeform gradient within a compound path/grouped object set of leaves (about 20) of various shapes and sizes. I had used compond paths to add a freeform gradient to two objects previously (although with a few bugs - see bug titled "Illustrator 2019 Freeform Gradient and compund paths not quite right" in Other...), expecting the gradient to render. Although it sounded as though my computer was working hard to process the effect, nothing rendered after 5 minutes and so I gave up, resorting to a clipping mask solution instead.

13. Color not applying correctly on selected objects rvsd

    I guess one cannot revise/edit one's own report. So here goes. I select an object and try to change the color of the stroke and fill by typing in the hex (?) code, e.g., 050505, and the color does not take. I have to move the circle in the select color box for the color to take and even then it is 50/50 as to whether the color holds. I have never had this problem before and it sure is frustrating now!

14. Direct Selection tool selects objects in and outside of clipping masks

    There is a bug (from maybe several versions back now) in which the direct selection tool sees and selects objects (and points) inside and outside of the clipping mask. The behavior In previous versions worked correctly (the direct selection tool only selected points on the clipping mask, not any of the inside contents). In the attached screenshot, you can see both the current bug and the previous expected behavior.

    To summarize, the Direct Selection Tool should only be able to select a mask's points and not the objects inside the mask.

15. Envelope distort: Using arrow keys to adjust bend and H/V distortion nudges object down the page

    I am having a situation where I have created an arc envelope distortion of some text and, after committing my initial bend, decided to edit the distortion.

    The problem is that, when I go back into Envelope Distort > Edit Envelope and increase (or decrease) the bend, H or V distortion in the toolbar, for every digit I go up or down, the object itself nudges down the page by 30-40 points.

    I have changed the transformation reference point from the top to the center to the bottom of the object, but it doesn't matter. The object still nudges down the page.

    I have done this with several different pieces of text which were all arc'd using the Make With Warp menu selection
    I am on a 2017 MBP, Mojave, with 16GB RAM.
    My expectation is that the object would remain at the starting coordinates on the artboard and I would see the object bend and/or distort in place.
    What is happening is, the object is bending and distorting, but it is also nudging down the artboard at a pretty large rate of movement.

    Hope this makes sense and that it helps you fix this bug.

19. Default Template Folder

    Version 23.0 no longer opens template files from the default "Cool Extras" folder. Instead it navigates to the last folder saved. Please revert this back as it is a huge waste of time creating new documents now.

    This also occurs for scripts, but I use less frequently and have dealt with it. Unacceptable for template files however.

20. Export as SVG: linked image gets deleted

    Hi All,
    I have an issue when exporting to SVG.
    I created an AI file with a linked jpg image as a background, and some text on top.
    When I export to SVG, the original jpg image gets deleted (I mean the original file, it disappears from Finder, it's not even in the recycle bin) and then Illustrator gives me the message "Some files are missing or modified in the links panel. Would you like to update them now?".
    So, the first time I export, the SVG is saved correctly but I lose the original image file, if I try to export again I get an SVG with no background image, because the link is broken.
    I tried to embed the image in the AI file before exporting. When I export the first time, same as before, SVG is correct but I lose the image file, even if it's embedded and not linked, this is very strange. If I try again without original image file, I get an SVG file with background image, but it's much bigger than before, like 400kb instead of 80kb. Comparing the 2 SVGs, I see in the code that the first one has the image embedded as jpg, and the second as png, don't know why.
