  2. Reduce History Panel Minimum Width

    Please reduce the history panel minimum width.
    Currently it's wider than (almost?) all of the history step names.

    Ideally this panel width could reduce to just show the icons of each history step.

    Common actions like Move and Clear would benefit from icons better representing the changes made.

    All the different type adjustments would also benefit from displaying their corresponding icons from their respective panels (font size, letter spacing, line height, paragraph alignment etc.)

    Thanks for delivering the History Panel!

  3. The interface UI font fails to follow the Windows system settings. A lot of serif fonts are used in

    The interface UI font fails to follow the Windows system settings. A lot of serif fonts are used in Chinese, making it very difficult to distinguish.

    The red part does not follow the operating system font, and the blue part correctly follows the operating system font. In Chinese Windows, the default font of the operating system is "Microsoft Yahei"

    Column for Turkish is Sütun; but it is misspelled and written as sütün.
    All sütün words must be replaced with Sütun.

  5. Make Adobe products inclusive for people with vision problems.

    It is impossible to change the menu color (make it dark like the rest of the interface) in Illustrator even after editing the registry in Windows 11. Only the Effect menu changes color according to the system settings, the rest (File, Edit, Type etc) remain blinding-white, which is critically bad for people with vision problems.

  6. Horizontal Scroll **** + mouse wheel

    On mac OS, Illustrator version 27.8

    Scrolling horizontally using SHIFT key + mouse wheel, is broken, and appears to be an obvious mathematical error.

    Expected behaviour is for the view to scroll left or right.

    Actual behaviour is that is works at some zoom levels, say 300% or 400%, but at higher zoom levels it barely scrolls a few pixels, and at 100% or less, it scrolls the entire page or worse for the smallest increment of the mouse wheel.

    It seems clear that the zoom amount has been factored into the scroll amount inversely by accident.

    This is a…

  7. オブジェクトを再配色にて、RGBスライダーが短く表示される

    Mac OS 12.6 Monterey
    Illustrator27.2(27.1.*)

    再配色ウインドウを開いた時に、下部の調整部分がRGBだとバーが短く表示されます。CMYKや他の調整モードに切り替えた後RGBに戻すとバーの長さは戻りますが、何度も切り替えているとRGBのバーのみがまた短くなることがあります。
    27.2にアップデートすることで解決するかと思いましたが解決していなかったので、前のバージョンの正確な数字を覚えていないのですが27.1.*でも同様でした。

  12. New Document modal misalignment

    When starting a new file, the modal that pops up where you can determine the document properties/preset details (title, size, orientation, bleed, color space, etc.) has the values for title, dimensions and bleed misaligned inside their bounding boxes.

  13. New File Preset Details Fields Are Misaligned Vertically (Cut off)

    When creating a New File, the measurement presets (width, height, bleed) are too high within their respective input fields. This causes the digits in each of the fields to be cut off at the top. I've attempted to resolve the issue by scaling the window, updating Illustrator, deleting preferences, and installing/reinstalling the application. Issue unresolved.

  14. Using Illustrator “Paste In Front” creates a Find window on the Desktop

    Hi;
    I have recently begun having a paste in front (⌘F) issue in AI 2020.

    For DECADES I have been able to select an item and copy (⌘C) then paste in front (⌘F) to create a copy of the selection exactly on top that I can then step/move as needed.
    I have been doing this in the Illustrator 2020 application for years.

    Now when I’m in Illustrator and I hit the paste in front (⌘F), it takes me directly to the desktop and creates a Find window. (And Does Not Paste In Front!)

    I can use “Paste In Front” in…

  15. Paste operation does not properly ignore the null termination character of ANSI string

    During a paste operation to the art board, the final null termination character of the clipboard is not ignored, but rendered as part of the string used to compse the text object.

    I'm attaching an image of the clipboard contents, and I made a video to show the behavior. Under Windows, simply copy the value from the color dialog box and then click the desktop and paste.

    When Preferences under User Interface -> UI Scaling is set to large then the "Save on your computer or to Creative Cloud" is cut off and input boxes are cut off. The sizing is not right.

  19. Home screen user interface not fully loading - looks like script - can't open templates either

    when I open Ai, the home screen UI doesn't seem to be loading correctly or all the way. see image below. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling, updated my graphics card (Radeon AMD Vega 64) and made sure windows 10 was up to date. I'm able to open a blank file by clicking on the templates, but if I try to create my own new project, I just get a blank pop-up box.

  20. Mac OS Save As file name highlight bug

    Productivity killing bug in Illustrator 25.2.3, but not Photoshop 22.3.1!:

    Mac OS (Catalina, currently) Save As dialog box highlights the entire file name, including the extension, which has been a bug the past several versions. For over a decade, Save As would not include the extension in the highlight, so one could tap the arrow key once to the end of the file name to change it, to increment a version number for example. This bug has been a huge stumbling block in my productivity.

    Also, in Illustrator, the sometimes Save As does not highlight the file name at all…
