Ray tracing cuts off ends of 3D strokes with round caps
When using the 3D effect on an object with strokes, and choosing to render using ray tracing, it abruptly cuts off the end of many strokes (with round end cap already applied).

Problem with Eyedropper tool on text
Illustrator 30.0 on Mac Ventura 13.7.8
When I try to use the Eyedropper tool on a text, it only samples the object's top Appearance, not the text's at Character level.
In the sample video, the characters should become grey, with the text object having a white outline behind. But you can see it only picks up the white outline and not the character colour.
My Eyedropper tool is set to pick up everything (all boxes are ticked).

拡大縮小
バージョン30.0で拡大縮小ツールで「パターンの変形」のみを行おうとした際、ダイアログ上で「オブジェクトの変形」「パターンの変形」の両方のチェックが入った状態(もしくはオブジェクトの変形からパターンの変形に変更)から、「オブジェクトの変形」のチェックを外して「パターンの変形」のチェックのみにして実行するとパターンの変形が何度やっても実行されない。(最初から「パターンの変形」のみにチェックが入っていた場合のみパターンの変形が実行される)
場合によっては、その後のオブジェクトの拡大縮小も挙動がおかしくなるので再起動が必要になる。
なお、他の変形ツールに関しては未確認。2 votes -
Color changes (and other things) do not change until I click on the page somewhere in Illustrator 2026
As in the title. I cannot see the changes I've made (fill color, stroke color, or fill/stroke flip) until I click on the page. Also after working on a file for some time, the "info" data stops working. i.e. the height and width (of an object) show zero instead of a number value. Restarting the app fixes it, but only temporarily.
Note: these same things are happening on 2 (completely different computers). One is a high-powered Alienware Area 51 desktop, the other is a high-powered Dell.

Overprint lines not working in Illustrator 2026 (v. 30)
The overprint feature is not working (both lines and fills). Not only does it not work with the Separation Preview in the app, but when output to PDF it is confirmed to not work. Inks that are indicated to overprint are knocking out.

"Use Artboards" unchecked and still exporting artboards for SVG files
For PNG files, artboard is exported on first save, then saves correctly on the second attempt for whatever reason. Not so lucky with SVG. Having to manually export each one, open in a new window, crop the artboard, repeat...

Images embedded disappear after reopening the file 2025
This problem has been occurring for a few weeks: when I reopen a file containing embedded images, they disappear, turn white, or turn the original image color.
In 15 years of using ILLUSTRATOR, this has never happened, and it's truly annoying. Some files contain more than 50 images, and if a small one disappears, it's unmanageable.
The strange thing is that it doesn't happen with all files; it's random.
I'm working with Illustrator 30.0, but the same thing happened with 29.8.3.
Looking through various forums, you may already be aware of this problem.
Please fix it, as we pay a…

Drop Shadows and Outer Glows not working right
Upgraded to v30 (64 bit) Drop shadows do not generate or display properly- they are either missing or show sharp edges even with a high fade. Both Drop Shadows and Outer Glow effects take a very long time to render and often lock up the program or Windows (Win11) completely so a reboot is needed. This is happening on relatively simple objects of a small size, I use these effects a lot and never had a problem with it like this before, even with large complex objects. There is something in the newest version of Illustrator which is causing the…

2026 converted RGB file to CMYK, won't go back
Got a new computer, downloaded Illustrator vs 2026, and signed in to Illustrator. I opened a file, started working on it, and noticed all my colors in the color panel were CMYK. The overall color setting was still RGB in the title at the top, and under color settings. Not only was everything in the color panel CMYK, but all of the options to change that were greyed out. Somehow, opening up a 2025 file in 2026 corrupted my color setting at the panel level and wouldn't let me change them back. I haven't disassembled my old PC, so I…

Highlight anchors on mouse over - across multiple layers
Previous versions of AI allowed highlight anchors on mouse over that applied to all currently editable layers.
For example, if there's an circle on layer one, and you start drawing on layer 2 above it, rolling the mouse over the circle highlights it's anchors, so the points you create on layer 2 are exactly over the circle.
2026 version can do this, but it only sometimes works. Most of the time it doesn't.
The option saves one from constantly averaging points. It's essential if you're sending files to a laser cutter.
(Mac OS 15.6.1, AI v30.0)

3D objects don’t update
When you click an extruded object, that you have deselected and want to edit again, the change you do, doesn't seem to update. If I use a slider, it remembers the setting, but the viewport doesn't update for example the extrude depth. I regards all settings though.
