  1. Resolution/raster setting info unclear and worrisome

    I discovered on the help board that all files on illustrator for iPad or vector files and therefore do not need a resolution adjustment. It took me a full day to find that information and it is not clear in the app. To add to the confusion the only information we do clearly have says raster affects 72 dpi. So looking at that it sounds like the file I just worked on for four hours is at 72 dpi instead of 300 dpi like my printer needs. There’s nothing available in the app that mentions anything about the actual resolution.…

  2. Gradient swatches

    I create a swatch for a gradient without a problem, but when I select another vector and apply the swatch, nothing happens.

    (Until then, for anyone wanting to work around the bug, go to the “solid color” option and back to “gradient color,” it should work then)

  4. Lost layers because the programme does not autosave

    Multiple objects lost because autosave is not working. Incredibly frustrating.

  5. Typing zoom level 100 broken

    Repro:
    1. Tap Zoom to bring up number pad
    2. Enter 100 at a speed the average user would type (not unnaturally fast)

    Result:
    After typing the 1, it auto changes the number to 3.14% (nice number choice btw :). But this then makes it so that the next two zeros you press just make the number 3.1400%.

    One workaround is to type super fast and it doesn’t trigger the 3.14 change in time to break it. Maybe just increase this delay to fix the UX.

  8. Type font reverts to default when exiting app

    When I exit the app sometimes my work has been closed upon re-entering the app. When I open the file back up my text/type has reverted to a default font. Seems to only occur with fonts I have imported.

  9. Organizational library

    The transfer of files between iPad and desktop are inconsistent. As a designer I have been transitioning to using my iPad for Illustrator. Files (.ai) on Apple desktop are not showing up on iPad Pro. Using other platforms for organization can manipulate the image and delays production.

  11. My resizing does not work anymore

    When I pinch to zoom in and out of my screen, it does not work anymore. It worked perfectly fine yesterday but today it won’t move. Even when I inserted an image, I can’t resize it anymore?

  13. Export Panel and exporting for artboard doesn't work

    I drag my icon to export panel and select SVG. then hit export.
    A pop up appears only for half a sec and the export is not there.
    Same thing for exporting for screens; I select the artboard - export as SVG and I select that it would make subfolders for me and show it after export.
    It opens the folder but its empty.
    This bug appeared after the latest update. I urgently need it to be fixed.

  14. Pinch to Zoom stops working periodically forcing app restarts

    Either during active work, or when swapping between apps on iPad Pro, the pinch to zoom function just completely stops working. You are completely unable to move around your artboard. In order to restore the functionality, the only solution is for the app to be closed or restarted. This problem has only started happening in the last week.

  15. After update, apple pencil and touch does not work correctly

    After update, making shapes with apple pencil does not work. And pan/zoom with pinching via touch does not work. Makes it impossible to use. I have restarted and it works for a second and then happens again.

  17. Colors Dark Blue immediately switches to Dark Purple

    Whenever I create use the color blue ex: 0004FF, along the ranges of dark blue, it automatically goes to purple. 391293 (Along that range). When I try to make the swatch of my dark blue, it immediately adds a dark purple swatch of that variant.
    I never had this issue before until now. I am working on the newest iPad Pro in color mode CMYK.

  20. Preserving layers

    When saving an AI file, the layers are not preserved after sending or opening in a new file. I am having trouble with sharing a design with specific color details in each layer, as the layers are flattened into 1 layer after saving the file as an AI file.
