  1. Editing path of “type on path” text freezes app

    Hello,
    I set up a type on path situation and wanted to edit the path that the text is locked onto. When doing so it freezes the app. As you can see in the video, after the app freezes (which is happening pretty soon into the video), I was still able to go to the tools and menus although nothing happened after selecting them.

    Here’s a video for more context: https://youtu.be/ebeN9Csjk88

    Thank you and best regards

  3. Blending Elements with Gradients crashes App

    While connecting Circles with differently colored gradients to get a “worm”-like look, the app regularly freezes and eventually crashes, bringing me to the Home Screen. I use Illustrator an a IPad Pro 2021 11’. Unfortunately this mobile version of this website won’t allow me to upload pictures for some reason so I can’t provide further context rather than saying that I used the blending option “Distance”.
    Thank You

    Edit: So I went ahead and recorded the screen to provide further context. It was easy to do since the bug is easy to recreate.

  6. Selecting anything with pencil closes window almost instantly

    Any selection of tool or setting, really anything I try with Apple Pencil opens a window very briefly not allowing time to select anything. If I select by touch and hold, you have to release pressure then try to press selection before it closes. I reinstalled Illustrator but the same issue makes it totally unusable. Thank you

    There is a similar recent issue, caused by Pencil hover (https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT211774) support conflict with iPad OS 17.1 and it affects only 12.9 inch (6th Generation) iPad Pro and 11-inch (4th Generation) iPad Pro.

    Sometimes this can be resolved by going to Settings > Apple Pencil and turning off Show Effects.

    However, please upvote the problem here: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/931885-illustrator-ipad-bugs/suggestions/47171770-when-using-apple-pencil-it-crashes-on-ipad-os-17

  8. Type on Path moving around places whenever opening the file again

    I’ve come to a constant problem with type on path. Whenever I open my project and then preview it again, the type on path moves away from its original place. It gets annoying whenever I have to move it every time I see this problem. It always changes.

  9. Exporting a file as Ai

    I have in one document 9 Artboards in Illustrator on my iPad Pro and when I go to export it as an Ai the box pops up for a second then disappears, not allowing me to export. When I quickly export it as PNG it works but I need the Ai file to be bought into InDesign. I’ve been able to save files as Ai before, so now I’m worried that the file is to large for it to be exported as an Ai from my iPad Pro. I tired to copy the artboards and bring them into a new…

  11. Text Box Deletion

    During regular workflow (double clicking to activate text, clicking outside element to close, and repeat) keyboard input seems to become faulty. Example: double clicking to edit text, making a word selection, pressing Delete will delete the entire text object, not just the selected word.

    If I cycle the tools a bit: click outside to close editing. Choosing Move tool, then choosing text tool, and going back into editing the text will sometimes resolve the issue.

  12. Placing Images Slows Performance Noticeably

    When using placed and clipped images in the file, it slows performance to a noticeable point. These are large size images in the range of 3-8mb. It shouldn’t be affecting performance that much.

    Note: Latest generation iPad Pro M1 with latest iPadOS and latest Ai update.

  14. Text Selection

    When I go to edit text, I select a spot to type. When I try to delete a single letter, it deletes the whole text box.

  15. Pencil 2 Brush disappeared

    I drew a stroke with the Pencil 2 Brush. After duplicating the artboard, I noticed my strokes had disappeared. The path was still there, though - as was the applied Brush 2. However, even in the brushes panel, Pencil 2 seemed to have no attributes. It was just blank, not even showing a sample/preview stroke. I changed the path to Pencil 1, and all was fine. Though, several days later Pencil 2 brush is still missing.

  16. When moving Artboards, certain elements stick in place, out of position

    When moving an artboard, certain elements (type mostly) stick in place and loose their sync to the artboard. Sometimes, they snap back later, other times they’re just left wherever the artboard previously was.

  20. After saving my doc and opening in desktop all changes were deleted.

    I started a project on ipad... moved to desktop to make color edits and then moved back to ipad... made changes and saved... and I cannot find those changes anywhere in the cloud, recent docs, or on the ipad or desktop.
