An error occurred while saving the comment It's a great question.
Exactly. We all use totally different descriptions to express the needs and log bugs even. Terminology differs, and in most times people don’t rely on it, because when we come here — we are usually are quite angry and frustrated something doesn’t exist or just broken :)
That’s why I do what I do: read every comment and post made here and connect the threads, tagging, merging, splitting, renaming, commenting, linking... to make it easier to be discovered, found, noticed.
And surely it all relies on a word of mouth. This place is STILL very new for the community, and some folks just don’t know it exists (even though Ai itself offers ways to find it). Plus, it’s about the trust. We all felt so neglected, for many years, that many still don’t trust the system, because 'Adobe doesn’t listen anyway'. Well, they actually do, and the more we talk and vote, the more they believe it as well. It’s not fast, no, but it finally started to matter, and some small but incredibly useful changes we were able to get were pushed thanks to those who voted and commented. And to fix the broken trust takes A LOT... it gets better!Why this particular one is not that popular though? So many reasons! 1) As I say — people don’t believe it matters to ask, 2) they are too patient, 3) they use InDesign instead, 4) they never tried to use InDesign at all, 5) they never heard of UV at all... you get the idea.
How to find specific things here? Categorization exists as well, but so far the best way is to making a new topic.
I made a small experiment — I tried to create a new request, typing just two words in the caption field: 'indesign eyedropper'.
And this exact request is the second one I get (see the screenshot attached).
Yes, I just know how the search here works, I agree... but it doesn’t really differ from how other search engines work, so there a high chance to discover one needed.An error occurred while saving the comment Cameron, it’s not about the time passed, it’s about the total vote count and the frequency of the votes.
The request is still solid, but, as you can see, even with yours one merged it makes it only 16 votes so far. Not that a large demand :( Still, every vote counts, and 16 is better than 15 and 1.
UserVoice usually does a good job to show you potential duplicates when you enter the caption, but these still happen. It makes no sense to post these as separate requests, so these get merged if the requests are similar enough — and yours one was a duplicate. It’d help tremendously though if you vote more for other things you find important.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment I love it. Voted.
As far as I know, it’s the first time someone mentions it here at UserVoice.
And I should note that Affinity Designer does it properly and makes the whole area of it clickable.
Well, it doesn’t provide feedback though and won’t alter their dots they use on mouse hover, but it’s still better than gaps Ai has.Andreas, at least Layers allow to click and drag through these icons, something they forgot to include in Appearance: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/45666958

An error occurred while saving the comment I wonder when did it start happening?

An error occurred while saving the comment Alejandro, I’m afraid it’s nothing I can advise for now. The majority of the team is absent due the holidays.
There are some general things you can try, like resetting preferences, downgrading, trying the Beta... but in this case it feels like it won’t help :(An error occurred while saving the comment There should be many way to acquire the data.
For example, open your Windows OS settings, then go to System, Display, extended settings, and then check the 'video adapter settings' (or a similar looking link — it may differ from 10 to 11, I can’t tell for sure). This should open a small dialog with the description of your GPU. If you then click the Properties button, it should open another one, but with the Driver tab visible. There you’ll be able to find the version of the driver.An error occurred while saving the comment Alejandro, seems like a rendering problem.
Can you share full details on the GPU and the driver version it uses? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Taylor, this sounds as nothing I’ve seen. Could you please record a short video demonstrating the problem?

An error occurred while saving the comment It’s not what I see when I make changes to a file and save it (using Save and not Save As), on Windows 10/11: the creation date stays, and the modified date gets updated...
Can you please share the exact steps and perhaps some screenshots to demonstrate what’s happening exactly at your side?AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment WOW. This is bizarre! Something is definitely wrong with the rendering!
Chun, can you please share full details about your computer: OS, GPU, driver version, everything?
Does this happen if you toggle preview mode, from GPU to CPU? -

An error occurred while saving the comment There are two related requests on the topic:
1. Allow gradient swatches to be added to CC library — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/30997678 (and 'library gradients' made with other means and stored within a library indeed are 'not supported in Illustrator', as it shows there)
2. You cannot add a Freeform Gradient to the Swatches Panel — You cannot add a Freeform Gradient to the Swatches Panel ...and it mentions Libraries, but I believe it should be a separate request.
Well, it’s because 'freeform gradients' are not gradients, and their behavior depends on the path’s shape these are applied to, unlike linear or radial gradient Ai has...'Normal' gradients we can apply to objects and put into a library (and it’s the only method to transfer them via CC Libraries as well). But an 'FF Gradient' looses its control points and the live status, it gets flattened into what it really is (according to PDF Libraries use) — a triangular mesh. And Ai doesn’t support triangular gradient meshes, only rectangular ones...
We can save 'FF Gradients' as graphics styles, then apply to objects, but as soon as the shape of the target object can’t fit a a control point, it just gets dropped, and the flow of color changes, making it wrong...
I see the feature as a failure in general. The support for this was initially crippled and underdeveloped. Sure, rectangles it can do... but when it comes to cases like this, it’s merely a toy :(
I support the request, as all other UV has about these, but the effort it’d take to fix the harm would be huge. It lacks too much at many levels. Thanks for requesting this.

An error occurred while saving the comment A very similar request:
Allow to color code attributes (fills, strokes, effects) in Appearance Panel
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49260260An error occurred while saving the comment I should add:
if this ever happens, the team should immediately add search support, as the Layers panel has (or better, since it’s rather flawed). And surely there should be an option to disable this, for those who doesn’t work with long stacks (something Layers never got).AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment I can confirm one half of it for sure.
The bounding box fits my text precisely, but the Y-coordinate of it indeed doesn’t even try to stay the same. By alternating positive and negative values it’s simple to make the text fly off completely.The way it should behave, I think, it’s how the Effect > Warp effect does it (the second GIF).
That’s why I avoid the envelope distortion with an adjustable warp, but love effects (and custom tailored meshes).An error occurred while saving the comment How large is this object? Can’t see the dimensions or the type size of it.
Does the same happen if you make it much smaller? -

An error occurred while saving the comment A related request:
Allow to collapse all items in Appearance panel
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49257572An error occurred while saving the comment Andrew, Alt-clicking arrows in Layers works for me in 27.6.1 on Windows: clicking one collapses the clicked group AND collapses all the child groups of it, so the next time you unfold the group back, the children stay collapsed, unlike they do with a normal click.
And then Alt-clicking the collapsed group will unfold all its children groups as well.
Please recheck if it works.An error occurred while saving the comment Another bonus point for having an assignable hotkey for that :)

Luc, I confirm it and upvote it.
At the same time, I found an easy workaround to make it go away.
Hold Alt, but try to actually smooth a path. After you actually do this, the annoying hint goes away and stops popping when Alt is held... not sure though if permanently. Please try it anyway.
