An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment The second one is a stroke with the variable width profile 2 applied, correct? This is not all what I get when trying to expand it in Ai 2026 30.0... Same deal with using the Blob brush...
What are the same settings you used for both the Blob Brush strokes? Can you share a screenshot, please?
At some point Adobe inserted a hidden simplification treatment before expanding variable strokes... it resulted in a slower speed, killing off the paired anchors, general smudginess... I raised it up several times, but it was not addressed.
It seems like in your case this hidden simplification step just never happens. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Yep. Not only PNGs, but other formats as well.
Photoshop can estimate a JPEG’s size before we save it. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Margot, I added you as a voter to the request for full customization of the Control panel here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/41107240
This and asking for your screen size again is the only thing I can be helpful with here...
At least know you are not alone with this problem and the the team knows about it as well.An error occurred while saving the comment Margot, recently the team added the long-awaited artboard background color options (requested here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31386253)
So now each artboard has 2 more controls: a dropdown menu and a color chip.
These now take space in the Control panel, and it seems like these push out the Width and Height controls out of the bounds!
What width does your screen have? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Paul, just recently Illustrator started to roll out the artboard background color feature, requested here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31386253
If you assign one for the artboard with your artwork, it should get baked into the thumbnail. Would it work for you?
I don’t think there could be a reliable model to make thumbnail differ from the content, only for white logos... I’d be worried why these differ :) -

An error occurred while saving the comment Even though Ai shows the zero if we set 0 in Eraser Tool Options, it’s actually 0.1 pt. Eraser always cuts with a shape, unlike the Knife Tool.
But I don’t think I can reproduce the bug you are saying you have...
Would you mind sharing a test file and a small video showing how it behaves for you, please?UserVoice seems to having difficulties with attaching .ai documents, so please try to save it into a PDF with Ai compatibility enabled (or perhaps just rename a .ai into a .pdf)

Illustrator today allows to set this mode as a default behavior with the Select Objects only within Marquee option, in Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display.
An error occurred while saving the comment No, Ken, we can still trigger this mode on the fly by tapping E key once after the marquee is started. The cursor changes, displaying square brackets underneath. Tapping E the second time while dragging disables it back. But tapping E is required each time you make a marquee — unless this permanent option is enabled.
There are two things that bother me (OK, more):
1. Once the permanent option is enabled, E should work the other way — temporarily disable the Enclosed mode... doesn’t happen
2. In one of Beta builds there was a way to assign a different key to toggle the mode on the fly, and now it’s gone. So far it’s unclear whySmaller things:
3. The cursor shifts 1 px down+right when Enclosed mode becomes active (for me, at 100% UI+OS scale) — reported here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/939477/suggestions/48775478
4. The scope is broken with it, and it still requires Group Selection while isolated in a group — reported here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/50688266An error occurred while saving the comment @e.k. kuzey,
at the moment Ai doesn’t have a mechanism to set hotkeys for items in panel’s menu and dialogs.
It is planned, AFAIK. The main request about this is here — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31609237AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment To calculate the hit area of the text, Illustrator uses its 'em-box'.
It’s rectangular container that fits each glyph, including ascenders and descenders (that is tails and necks of various 'g' and 'f'), and all the capitals and digits.
This helps to not accidentally select stuff behind the text while accidentally clicking in the middle of something like 'O' or between letters.But the method has caveats.
For some fonts these are quite huge. Even when a glyph doesn’t have anything protruding (like 'a' or 's'), it still has a box like other ones.
The larger the text gets, the larger these blind spots become.So far there is not a solution to auto-shrink the hit area to each glyph’s bounds.
The workaround though exists: enable 'Type Object Selection by Path Only' in Preferences > Type.
Not the same thing at all, but a method still. -

An error occurred while saving the comment I tested the shared 8904_250-f02-fbl-Charges.ai file, and this it what it does for me in both GA 30.0 and Beta 30.1.89, on Windows 10.
With both Appearance options checked for Eyedropper, it picks and applies the individual character’s fill of the grayish source text to all the currently green characters of the target type object...
Are you sure you have the exact same tool’s settings? -

The latest Beta Build 29.6.25 has this bug fixed. Please update and see if it truly works as expected
An error occurred while saving the comment @Akshaya, yes, there is.
Holding Opt/Alt with Shift seems to be broken, again (not for me though):
1. Older report 1, Holding Alt while dragging an object to copy / duplicate it doesn’t works: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/32365747
2. Older report 2, Alt-Drag to Duplicate (and Shift to align) Only Works Intermittently: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/31354873 (marked as fixed in 2020)
3. Recent report: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50612417@Jason, does your issue feel the same as in the video posted by Tay, here in the report above?

An error occurred while saving the comment I see!
Please take a look at these two existing request:
1. Use Key Object to allow precise control for in-back and in-front level changes — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/20554729
2. The Ability to paste an object precisely where we want it to be in the layers panel — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/41403613Also, perhaps these two amazing scripts could help?
I have these assigned to hotkeys and use them daily, for the similar task you have:
https://github.com/nimbling/Nimbling_Scripts#send-behind--bring-in-front-of
The only problem with these is to know for sure which object is the selection is above.
Other than that — these are amazing.An error occurred while saving the comment Kait, if you select something and use Paste in Front/ Back, Ai would paste the clipboard contents in front of the topmost / at the back of the bottommost objects in the selection (if you have Paste Remembers Layers option disabled in the Layers panel’s flyout menu — it is disabled by default)...
It fits the description you made, but I’m not sure it’s exactly what you meant... can you elaborate, please? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Lawrence, in your CCD open Apps, and in the right Installed Apps column find the Illustrator version you need, hover and click 'More actions' (...) button. Choose 'Get add-ons', and then add the 'Mockup feature components'. Usually it should happen automatically when you try to create a mockup the first time, but something went wrong... Please comment back, no matter if it helps or not.

An error occurred while saving the comment Still doesn’t happen. Maybe it’s a file?
Can you copy this circle into a new document, check if it still misbehaves there, and share this file here?
UserVoice seems to experience problems with attaching .ai files for now, so please rename it into a .txt file to bypass it.An error occurred while saving the comment Can’t reproduce it, perhaps something differs when I try.
Can you please attach a test file and record a small video demonstrating the exact steps you try? -

An error occurred while saving the comment This is strange... Can you please record a small video of how it looks?
Do others cursors appear for other tools?
If you double-click a type object with the Selection Tool — does it start editing the text?
If you install a previous build of Illustrator — does it have the same problem? -

An error occurred while saving the comment David, please package both and send directly to the team via sharewithai@adobe.com
Mention the link to this report, so they can track it back here — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50581817
It seems to be a part of the larger problem, and every bit of data counts.
Just to clarify also... are these files located on a local disk? not-cloud managed, not over a network or on a NAS?An error occurred while saving the comment Seems like a related problem:
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50633909An error occurred while saving the comment Yes, I can see this at your screenshots, but not within the file... and if there is no difference between GPU and CPU Preview, it probably means it just struggles with rendering in general. The GPU is integrated in the iMac’s M3 chip, AFAIK...
I’ll try to bring some attention to it. Have you ever noticed this with other files at all?An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks for the file, studying it.
So far all the shadow applied to all rectangles seem to be rendered fine for me (although I’m at Windows 10, with a different GPU).
When a shadow vanishes like this — does the effect still get shown in Appearance panel? Does it appear back if you toggle View > Preview on CPU?Two circles missing images (Francium and Radium) are not clip groups when I study them in Layers... no images are there. I noticed though that those clip groups that do have images are made of a grouped ellipse and an image — never heard of it being a problem, but perhaps clipping an image with a grouped ellipse can lead to images vanishing? Are you sure you had the images for these two elements in the first place? Odd...
Alos, just wanted to mention the atomic weight for Francium has parentheses (while others elements don’t), and the Sodium’s rectangle has smaller corner radii than other elements.
If you can, please try to check how the file behaves in Beta build — it’s available in your CCD app and will get installed next to the general build (be warned though that it will rewrite your .ai file association).
An error occurred while saving the comment David, please share a test file (with images included, using File > Package), and the spec of your computer: OS, GPU, etc.

An error occurred while saving the comment Here’s a script made by me and Sergey Osokin.
Rename it from .txt. to .jsx after downloading.The script would process the whole document and do these things with clip groups found:
1. Convert all filled clipping masks into filled compound clipping masks — it would make them clickable and draggable
2. Move all filled compound clipping masks to the bottom of their groups — this would fix the problem with them being moved to the tops of their clip groups and prevent selecting other children
Compound clipping masks without fills are ignored, as well as unfilled clipping paths.Upvote this related problem to have it fixed someday:

An error occurred while saving the comment I have a rectangle clipping mask around a circle (doesn't really matter). When rectangle has no fill, I click it and nothing gets selected — expected, fine. But when I fill my clipping mask and try to select it by clicking the colored area — it does nothing. It works for everything, except for colored clipped masks :) You have to drag over the edge only. It doesn't matter if you clipping mask is over or under (in this case, btw). It should work.

Whenever I enable any Pressure option for any of three parameters (even when the variation value is 0) for the Blob Brush tool, I notice the simplification seemingly doesn’t get applied to the result...
And I don’t use a tablet pen, just a mouse at the moment.
Can you confirm this?
However, it doesn’t explain the problem with the variable width profile and the pathfinder (I’d like to get a test file with the original shapes and then processed to see the difference).
Just in case — can you backup your Preferences, reset them, and compare the behaviors?
