Remove Bleed Icon from Artboard
A red "Print Bleed" icon appears in the upper right of a document when bleed is applied. The icon doesn't provide any function other than show a message that it's a bleed. We need a way to turn this off.

Rulers have turned black
Operating system: See DxDiag.txt document
Version Illustrator (Beta) 29.8 28 (64-bit)
I opened Illustrator yesterday to find the rulers have blacked out (see image). I have tried everything I can think of, even uninstalled and reinstalled Illustrator but to no avail.
The rulers work just fine on the regular version, the problem only exists on the Beta version.Many thanks David
Keep up the great work.6 votesReported to be fixed in Beta 29.8.0.68, please try and comment back

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.

However, this build got Shift broken for constraining transformation, so it’d be wise to wait for the next Beta build, where it is reported to be fixed.

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.

Transform Pattern Tiles option doesn’t work when using Bounding Box
The 29.6.1 build (and the latest Beta build 29.8.0.5) ignores the Transform Pattern Tiles option being enabled when scaling an object using bounding box.
The pattern is rendered as if it’s scaled / rotated while you drag (if Real-Time Drawing and Editing is enabled), but resets back when you release the mouse button / pen.
I use Windows. I tried this with the GA build 29.6.1 and it works fine...
However, here’s a report it happens on a Mac, seemingly with GA build: https://www.reddit.com/r/AdobeIllustrator/comments/1m2n2uq/pattern_not_transforming/I bet this issue is related to this one:

Artboard reference point bug
No matter where the reference point is set (see screenshot), when resizing the artboard Illustrator acts as if it was in the bottom left corner. It started in previous version and persists in v30. In a document with one artboard it's annoying, in a document with 40 artboards it makes work impossible.

Please update to this latest Beta and share your observations.

The Control bar fill and stroke color option is broken again
The Control bar fill and stroke color option is broken again. The color is changing incorrectly when I select a swatch color or when I am trying to enter values in the color mixer. Also it is changing the color mode incorrectly in the color mixer when starting to enter values, for example when I start entering RGB values it changes the values to CMYK even though the document is RGB. There are many more problems that are adding up. The more Illustrator is trying to create new features the more it is becoming unusable.
Using Color Mixer in Control…

Impossible to enter special characters (diacritics) in layer names and AI prompts
It is impossible to enter special characters (ones with diacritics - ęóąśłżźćń) in layer names and AI prompt window. In Polish they're entered from keyboard using right alt+character (ś = r-alt+s), so it might be realted to that...? Anyways, those are essential in Polish.

Scaling an object with the bounding box using Shift + Selection Tool is acting weird (Illustrator Beta 2025)
When I hold the Shift key to expand or shrink an object it starts to act weird. Essentially it is not stable.

Clicking the locked object with Group Selection tool inside of a group with an effect applied selects the whole group
When you have a locked child in a group with any effect applied (Transform or Drop Shadow or Offset Path...), clicking this locked child with Group Selection tool (not Direct one) selects the whole object — while it is expected to have nothing selected.
Selecting the whole group with Group Selection should work only if you make several clicks on an child object, each click selecting the next parent group.... but here the child is locked, and it should not receive any clicks! Somehow having the effect applied breaks the click detection.This becomes especially painful when the effect is…

Illustrator has trouble exporting files to JPEG
Illustrator has trouble exporting files to JPEG. It practically doesn't export them at all. It goes through the entire export process but ultimately fails to export the file. This only affects JPEGs.

"Automatically Save Recovery Data Every X Minutes" doesn't work
my auto save for recovery data is set to 2 minutes, but it rarely even saves reliably every "hour".
this happened again today and this time I lost 3 hours of progress--yes it was my fault, I was swamped from editing multiple projects across multiple apps for a deadline. And, naturally, illustrator crashed again. Like always, it doesn't have the recovery data from minutes ago. Judging from the save state, this time it seemed to have only saved after the "first 2 minutes" upon opening the file, and never again afterwards.
It's been a long standing issue. And while file…

EPS not rendering correctly in 29.6.1 when double effect is used.
In 29.6.1, I faced a major issue. All those files where an object has double transparency effect - For example
1) Apply MULTIPLY effect (Try applying on a gradient)
2) Group the object with self (CMD + G)
3) Apply SCREEN effectSuch files are not rendering properly in the version mentioned. However version 29.5.1 works as expected.
Please fix this on priority.Cheers!!

Rulers and bounding box for live shapes are invisible in CPU Preview
If I enable CPU, I don’t see my rulers (drawn as white) and the bounding box for any live shape (but once I convert one into a path — it appears). I can still resize objects and create guides, it’s just the rendering is broken.
Works fine in GPU and in the GA build.1 vote
