グラデーションツールでの操作がヒストリーパネル上で「取り消し」として登録される。
macOS13.6.7
Illustrator ver.28.6再現手順
1. 任意の図形にグラデーションを適用する。
2. グラデーションツールを選択肢1のオブジェクトのグラデーションを調整する。
3. ヒストリーパネル上では「取り消し」として登録される。期待する結果
グラデーションパネルでの操作と同様に「グラデーション」と登録される。実際の結果
ヒストリーパネル上では「取り消し」とし登録されるため、グラデーション処理を行ったものかどうかが判別できない。これもヒストリーパネルが装備された当初からの不具合です。英語版では「undo」と表示されますので全ての言語版において発生している不具合だと考えられます。

[Illustrator 27.9] Changing the Fill Color of All Objects Becomes Impossible After Using the Gradient Tool
After I change the color of a gradient stop several times, changing the fill color of virtually all objects becomes impossible until I restart Illustrator.
How to reproduce the bug:
1) Create any object with a gradient fill.
2) Keep changing the colors of the stops.
3) Once changing the colors becomes impossible, create a new object in either the same or a new document and try to set its fill color.

Expanding a path with a gradient doesn't expand, just creates a group with the same path
I want to expand a gradient applied to a path so that I have bands of colour as vectors in place of the gradient.
I have been using this tool in this way successfully but this week there seems to be a bug: it works until it doesn't and then doesn't work at all.
If I quit Illustrator and reopen everything it might work again, but with some paths it doesn't work at all. Please see my screenshots.

Gradient along a stroke blend
When blending 2 gradient strokes (gradient along stroke) the blend orientation does not stay consistent with the 2 original strokes. I know I can get the required results with gradient within a stroke or converting outline path etc. but I need to get it to work using 'gradient along stoke' for my purposes.

Problem with tracing feature
Hi.
I have a problem with tracing feature. Never have I been able to use this feature, not once. Each time the error message appears: "Can not be fully executed because an unknown problem has occurred (CANT)".
Why is that?
Can someone help me?3 votes -
Freeform Gradient stops vanish, can’t be placed or edited
When trying to "edit gradient" in the Freeform Gradient tool I found that the handles disappear/glitch and don't allow me to place or change any of the values. I have tried in both positions (the top toolbar and right-side menus) but both times, even upon a restart and reset of performance, that the handles are not responding at all. I also cannot add stops in the tool window, I can only change the (new) "Method" dropdown box, which, in either setting, does not fix anything.
I am on the latest version of illustrator (30.5.1) on Desktop Mac.

Radial gradient Annotator's centre point not aligned to object centres
Windows 10, all updated.
Illustrator 30.3 64-bit
The end point of the 'Gradient Annotator' marking the centre of a radial gradient should, I think, be placed on the centre of an object. But there is a rather big offset (image 'gradient-align.png'), which makes it tricky to position the gradient to, for instance, the bottom of an object.
The centre is not really the centre but is rather to the right of the centre point. It is weird.Ideally, it would be at the centre so the 'Gradient Annotator' could be perfectly placed at the centre if the bar was moved…

Overlapping linearly opposing gradients (solid-to-transparent, of the same color) doesn’t produce a solid color
One oddity, which happens both in RGB and CMYK is that there is always some visibility of the background with two overlapping, linearly opposing gradients (black to white and white to black).
RGB attached for simplicity.
They should actually appear as uniform. Also the color at the 50% distance is not even a tint.2 votes -
Gradient across stroke, inside opacity mask is thresholded for half the width of the stroke
Applying a black-to-white gradient across a stroke inside an opacity mask results in a portion of the opacity mask not being applied, corresponding to half the width of the stroke, almost as if it is clipped by the stroke. If the path is subsequently outlined, which creates a mesh, the behavior is the same. If the object is a filled bezier curve, the behavior is normal with the shape masked as expected.

Freeform Gradient is not rendred
When I try to make a freeform gradient, the colors don't show up. I'm not sure if this is just an issue with a preview or something else.

Bug - Graduated stroke colors automatically changed!
A graduated stroke color was in a saved file applied to a brush stroke. I had not been in the file for several months. The preview appeared full color, but when I opened the file, it was like the opacity of the colors had been turned down, except they hadn't been! Inside the file, it appears faint. But the stroke does not indicate the opacity has been reduced. It is so confusing since the file has not been opened for over two months.
Don't know if it is a gradient or brush stroke issue or a compatibility issue.

freedom gradient works only on half of the object if it has a clipping mask
When applying a Freeform Gradient to an object that uses a clipping mask, the gradient is rendered only on part of the visible area instead of the entire clipped object. The remaining portion of the object appears unaffected by the gradient, as if the gradient calculation were limited to only a section of the underlying geometry.

Gradient panel bug
I can't scroll in the Gradient panel like in the Libraries panel where i can see the other options or like the Properties panel when there's more options, but the space is not enough, but you can scroll so you can see the rest. And also the little panel where you can see the default styles of gradients is taken so much space and you can't minimize that space, that could be good, or just leave a line where you can see a limited or recent styles chosen but then you can click so it expands and shows you the…

Gradients with opacity act as a clipping mask for objects behind them
When working with complex groups and gradients, often times an object with a semi-transparent gradient ends up removing the graphics from grouped items below it.
The solution I've found is to ungroup and regroup items, but I feel this shouldn't happen in the first place. It also disrupts my workflow and how I group items in the first place.
I don't know how to describe the steps to recreate it, other than "it happens sometimes." I think it happens more often if I've created Blends, even if those blends have been expanded.
The images attached show two examples of what's…

I can't use the freeform gradient tool in Illustrator for some reason.
For some odd reason, freeform gradient is not usable. I add in rectangles and saved images but nothing works. In addition, the other gradient tools are available for selection but have no impact on the image as well.
I'm using version 27.4 (64 bit) on a Samsung.

When pasting a line with a gradient stroke it gets converted into a path
When copy and pasting a line (with a line gradient) Illustrator converts the line to an outline path. See video.

When using gaussian blur or outer glow on top of a gradient object, the gradient underneath becomes transparent.
The object in the pictures shown is applied the outer glow effect. When I place the object on top of the shape applied with gradient colors, the gradient becomes transparent as the glow appears to have disappeared.
