  1. Pasted items automatically get deselected in Beta 29.5 35

    Copy an element and paste it. It should be in a selected state, but it isn't.

  2. Shift Constrain not working

    Since update to v29.5.0.35, holding the shift key while resizing an object does not constrain the aspect ratio of the object.
    This happens whether "Transform Tools" is checked or unchecked.

    One exception is if I create a new object using the shape tool. Constraint works for those objects until I alter them, or if I try to resize while another object is selected.

    I have reset preferences, restarted Illustrator and the OS.

  3. Beta Print Bleed has problems with locked layers

    In Illustrator Beta when a bleed is applied to an Artboard and then you lock a layer a message pops up saying "Unhide and unlock objects to include them in generative Expand". Once you click OK the message keeps reappearing not allowing you to do anything else.

  4. Can’t select objects by clicking their fills with Direct Selection Tool in Beta 29.5.0.15

    It’s no longer possible to select objects using the Direct Selection Tool without clicking on either the object’s edge, or the object's center point. Clicking on the object's fill does not select the object. This has worked normally up until the 29.5 release.
    Same happens when trying to select a part of a dynamic symbol.
    Group Selection and Selection Tools works fine.

  5. Export As with Use Artboards now fully include all the object on the artboard and doesn’t crop them as expected

    Something is terribly wrong with Export As.

    For some reason 'Use artboards' no longer works in Beta 294.0.73 as expected. Here, I expect the parts of the circle to be cropped — but the resulting PNG includes all objects on the artboard.
    Happens for other formats and multiple artboards.
    This is PAIN.

    Does not happen in GA build!

  9. The initial pivot for a Point Type text when Scale tool is picked is wrong

    In the latest Beta 29.5.0.35 the default position of the pivot point for a Point Type text is not at its anchor point anymore, but at its center. This used to work fine just recently.

    While this behavior CAN be an option for the Scale tool, it should not be hidden and given as a default one.
    But I’d appreciate having it in the dialog when a text is selected.

  11. Text disappearing in Preview/other Adobe apps

    Updated my version of Beta today.

    After saving a working file it no longer displays text in finders preview, or within an indesign file as a placed graphic. It displays correctly when opened in Illustrator (normal and beta versions).
    Using other devices running Sequoia 15.2 the preview image and indesign file with the placed graphic also appear without text, but opening in Illustrator on that device does show it. So it's not OS related.

    My only work around is to open the file and resave it in normal Illustrator and not the Beta version.

  12. File only partially read: Urgent Help Needed

    Hi,

    I have been using Ai for over 10 years for work (using my company's account), and the beta version for about a year. Recently, I encountered an issue opening a master design file that is synced with Google Drive. The file was created and saved by me on the same device and software. I have never faced this issue before, so I doubt it's related to an internet or Google sync problem. Even if it is, I believe it should still be reported, as this is quite concerning. I am using the latest beta version, but the file was…

  14. Placed JPEG JFIF images are rendered as white

    When I place JFIF JPEG images into Ai Beta 29.5.0.15, they get rendered as white.
    Same images placed into GA build are rendered fine.
    Can’t share the images publicly due to the copyright.

  15. Snap to Point is broken in Beta 29.6 91

    When we disable everything but Snap to Point (to have a clean experiment), the way it works is awful.

    It seems like it happens after all, but the way the cursor blinks and the object gets snapped only after the mouse is released makes it very unobvious (snap-to-pointtestBeta.gif)

    Now take a look how general release handles it. This is how it should work (snap-to-pointtestGA.gif) — no cursor jittering, the objects renders as snapped before mouse/pen is released.

  16. Major issues on MAC desktop with shortcuts and tools. Unusable actually.

    Copy and paste is not working. Handles and boundaries are not showing. Things are randomly undoing steps. Zooming in randomly is happening. Most shortcuts don't work. I can not edit text, there is a lag and it never enters to let me edit it.

  17. Collapsed panels won't open when clicked!

    I keep some panels permanently expanded (eg. Character, Paragraph, Pathfinder/Align/Transform) with other ones like Transparency, Swatches etc. collapsed and tacked to the sides (see screenshot). When using 28.7.1, none of the collapsed panels will expand or respond to clicking any part of the panel. The only way I can expand them is to manually go into the Window drop down and click the name of the panel I need to expand.

  18. Some tools don’t allow to snap the transformation pivot to the current selection’s own points using Smart Guides

    The latest Beta 29.6.57
    It seems like Rotate and Scale tools (and I suspect others as well) no longer see Smart Guides for the current selection’s own points — only of other objects. What’s wrong? All SG options are checked, as always for me.

    Still works as expected in the main build.

  19. Asset Export Not Respecting Individual Assets

    When exporting properly grouped and named assets in the Asset Export panel, SVG, PDF, JPG, EPS, and Ai files will export multiple versions of assets in the file, but PNG files export properly.

  20. Frequent app crash due to an unknown reason

    I lost 2 of my projects in Adobe Illustrator because the app closes suddenly and doesn't save the files even though it's set to save changes on all my files every 15 minutes. When I open the app once again it says "Adobe Illustrator just recovered from a crash". It repeats 2-3 times in a day and every time the file is lost or not recovered correctly. After the last crash my app stopped showing any images that I add to the file and stopped showing any actions I do with Illustrator tools. There is no ability to work on…
