1. Name artboard is not added to the file name when exporting (jpg or png, etc.)

   When executing the command "File - Export file as" and exporting, for example, to jpg, the name artboard 3 "preview" is not automatically added to the file name. Everything was fine in the previous version (26.3.1) of Illustrator.

2. Illustrator 27 packaging bug

   Mac OS Big Sur 11.7
   Adobe Illustrator 27
   Mac mini M1

   Package command destroys filenames and replaces links with others. That's catastrophic for my job. Please fix it as soon as possible.
   Also, could not upload files for helping you reproduce the issue.

3. Properties Panel Content Missing in Illustrator v29.3

   Description of the Issue:

   After upgrading to Illustrator v29.3, the Properties panel no longer displays its full content. For example, when selecting a rectangle, the panel only shows "Rectangle" and "Quick Actions," while other expected options are missing. This issue persists even after clearing the cache, resetting preferences, and restarting the application.

   I downgraded to v29.2.1, and the Properties panel worked as expected. However, when I upgraded back to v29.3, the issue reappeared, confirming that this is specific to the v29.3 update.

   System Information:

   • Operating System: macOS 15.3.1
   • Adobe Illustrator Version: v29.3

   Steps to Reproduce:

   • Upgrade to Illustrator v29.3.
   • Open an existing file or create a new one.
   • Select an object (e.g., a rectangle) and check the Properties panel.
   • Notice that the panel does not display the full options as it did in v29.2.1.

   Expected Behavior:

   The Properties panel should display all relevant options for the selected object, as it did in v29.2.1.

   Actual Behavior:

   The Properties panel only shows limited options (e.g., "Rectangle" and "Quick Actions") and does not display the full range of properties for the selected object.

   Request for Assistance:

   Please investigate and address this issue in a future update. If a workaround is available, I would appreciate guidance on how to resolve this while using v29.3.

   This is expected to be fixed in the latest Pre-release build 29.4.0.130. If this fix is going to be stable enough, it’d can be pushed into the next GA build.

4. Javacript locking embeded image

   In Illustrator 29.1 this script worked just fine. I place an image, move it, name it, lock it and embed it. But in 29.3 this code gives an error message: It says that it cannot operate on a locked layer, BUT it still locks the placed item. If I move the lock to after the embed, the lock does not happen. So this code no longer works in 29.3.

   I think its weird in 29.1 that you were allowed to lock the placeditem before you embed it, but it doesn't work if you lock it afterwards.

   We are using macos 15.1.1 (and 15.3.1). I have verified that this code functions on 29.1 and fails on 29.3. We have verified this across multiple desktop computers.

   We found this issue in a much larger code base, but I was able to extract this down to this code chunk below.

   var doc = app.activeDocument;
   var scriptFile = new File($.fileName);
   var scriptFolder = scriptFile.path;
   var filePath = new File(scriptFolder + "/Golf Ball.png");

   // Place the image
   var placedItem = doc.placedItems.add();
   placedItem.file = filePath;

   // Center the image
   var docBounds = doc.artboards[0].artboardRect;
   var centerX = (docBounds[0] + docBounds[2]) / 2;
   var centerY = (docBounds[1] + docBounds[3]) / 2;

   placedItem.position = [centerX - placedItem.width / 2, centerY + placedItem.height / 2];

   // Embed the image

   placedItem.name = "Golf Ball Texture"; // Name the placed item

   placedItem.locked = true;
   placedItem.embed();

   In Illustrator 29.1 this script worked just fine. I place an image, move it, name it, lock it and embed it. But in 29.3 this code gives an error message: It says that it cannot operate on a locked layer, BUT it still locks the placed item. If I move the lock to after the embed, the lock does not happen.

   The issue is reported to be fixed in the latest Pre-release build 29.4.130.

   The provided script should now work without any error dialog, as before.

   Please also see the recommended way to achieve locking of embedded art in modified script, in a comment within.

5. When exporting an intertwined object to PDF the selection trace is preserved in the saved file

   Mac OS Ventura 13.0.1 (22A400)
   Illustrator 27.0.1

   The reproduction scenario is as following:
   1. Create two overlaying rings (I used pathfinder to make the hole in the middle).
   2. Select both objects
   3. Go to Object-Intertwine-Make and select the target area
   4. Save in PDF

   Even if the Flatten transparency was selected (as suggested in https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/45826375-intertwine-bug-when-export-as-pdf-x4 ), the tiny selection trace in the intertwined area can be viewed (see the attached file)

   This issue is fixed in the Prerelease version (available in Creative Cloud Desktop Prerelease section).

   Intertwine objects now get treated differently when expanded, and an extra copy get placed underneath the stack of clipped zones to eliminate seams PDF viewers display.
