An error occurred while saving the comment I wonder if this is still a problem with recent builds of Ai?

Image Trace results have deteriorated over the years, detail is lost and line work looks terrible!

An error occurred while saving the comment To be fair, I can’t tell what is the difference. I mean it! I see some sport you marked, but can’t tell if I notice something specific there.
Then you say 'sharp' and 'blurry', regarding vectors... does this mean you refer to how these are rendered on screen? or do you use these to somehow describe Bezier paths Image Trace produces? Vector can’t be blurry...
'Uneven' is something I can totally get and I think I can spot the 'strokes' don’t have the same weight... Am I right though thinking these are not actual strokes, but fills?Anyway, some changes were indeed made to the algorithm. But to investigate it further the team would need more details on the settings used and both the original image and the traced results — both before 29.5 and after.
Please share these here in comments if this is OK with you to share it publicly, or send them to sharewithai@adobe.com (in this case mention the link to the report for backtracking: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/49820743)

An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah, Garrett, this is a known problem and the team tries to solve it. They wanted to improve and failed.
Some changes were already made. If you are on 27.6.1 — please update to 27.7.
While the Black & White preset the previous versions had by default is not restored back yet, you can try to tweak values manually to check if the result. Specifically, make the threshold to 128, lower the noise level to 1-2 (in the case of this halftoned computer is seems to be a good value). Please write back if you notice any improvements.
If you are able to share the original image here, the team can make some tests as well.
More changes are coming and we all hope this time they are going to be for the better :/An error occurred while saving the comment Menekşe, the is widely known now, the team is aware of the new problems Image Trace currently has and is working on solving them.
The only viable option now if you need the old way back is to try downgrade :(
Also — could you please share a test image you are trying to trace and the result you are having? Also, when (and if) you downgrade — can you make a comparison?An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks, James!
I can now confirm that.
Using the default settings (identical), the released version and the Beta/Prerelease produce drastically different results with the attached image.

An error occurred while saving the comment I wonder what happens if you try to restore the previous version of this file? Are you able to?
Is it only fonts that get messed up, or do the objects vanish completely? Please tell more. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Mille, I think I know exactly what happens.
Please pick Eyedropper and hit Enter (or double-click the tool’s icon), to open the Eyedropper Options dialog.
I bet you have both Appearance options enabled, both in Picks Up and Applies columns?If yes, please open the Window > Appearance panel to understand what happens when you use Eyedropper to pick and apply anything to a group.
Take a look at the GIF attached.The group has no appearance on tis own, but red-and-orange rectangles inside do.
If you use Eyedropper with both 'Appearance' options unchecked — the tool samples the focal fill and focal stroke from the path clicked and assigns these to paths within the group.
But with the 'Appearance' options checked — the tool samples the appearance as whole (and it’s more than just colors) and assign it to the group — because this is what you had selected. Treat this 'Appearance Eyedropper' as a completely different tool with a very clunky way of switching. It can be very powerful, but is hard to understand unless you keep Appearance panel open (because that section of it Properties shows... well, sucks).The same exact thing happens if you use 'Appearance Eyedropper' with text.
Instead of coloring the characters themselves, the tool would assign a separate fill to the whole object, covering the individual characters fills within. -

An error occurred while saving the comment It's hard to tell how heavy is your image, but yep, there is lag...
What about other things? Simple rectangles? Type?An error occurred while saving the comment Please record a small video demonstrating the lags the app has, for the team to study.

An error occurred while saving the comment @Felicia, the team wants to know one thing: these texts, all in the shared HTH_LAYOUT_28x60.ai document, — did you use any plugins for making or dealing with these?
An error occurred while saving the comment Felicia, does it behave differently if you disable GPU preview? Do you see the marker on CPU preview?
Does it happen in all document, including new ones? With all fonts, or only some? With all area sizes, or only small/large?
Does it differ if you toggle View > Show/Hide Text Threads?An error occurred while saving the comment Bez, can you share this file with the team, please?
Send it over to sharewithai@adobe.com and mention the link to this report (http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/49766090) and your full specs, both OS and Ai. -

Please provide settings used for saving the document and the document itself
An error occurred while saving the comment Interesting! If the same .ai file behaves differently in different InDesign builds, that might be the case...
I’d suggest posting this into the InDesign’s UserVoice: https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs

Today Illustrator has Swatches Info — it allows most of the things requested here with the ability to have the chosen swatches to be placed on canvas as text, using chosen models.
But perhaps there are other things not covered by Swatches Info? Please share your opinion in comments, so the team can plan further development.
An error occurred while saving the comment Matt, oh, I see what you mean and I am able to replicate this! Good catch!
If one creates a document based on a Print profile but change the Color Mode to RGB (and Ai would show a fair warning when they do, 'Panel content may not match the new color mode'), than creating a Swatch Info would fairly show the name of the swatch... which is hardly fair at all.Swatch Names now don’t match the color values, because the original CMYK values (with the predefined names because on the original values) get converted to RGB, and then these converted values get converted back to CMYK to be displayed in the description.
The conversion happens with the chosen color profile and some discrepancies happen.
In my case
50-0-100-0 doesn’t change, but
75-0-100-0 goes 75-0-99-0, and
85-10-100-0 becomes whopping 85-17-100-3, and
90-30-95-30 changes into 90-33-96-26.Well, one should avoid double conversion :) Do not change the color mode if you don’t mean to throw away all presets (this includes [Default Graphics Style] — because in this document pressing D would give you shallow black — in my case RGB 29-29-27, converted from CMYK 0-0-0-100).
An error occurred while saving the comment Matt, this is even more odd... (sorry for the long reply, your comment landed into spam for some reason).
When I create an RGB document, the captions with names (top lines) say the RGB name... not CMYK...
The RGB values in my file differ from yours... and while CMYK numbers in an RGB doc are easily explained by different color settings (I use Europe General Purpose 3), I’m not sure why RGB values differ.
Can you run this test again an an RGB doc (what document profile do you use when making one?) and share the test file here?An error occurred while saving the comment Matt, this is odd! These are indeed get rounded to 5 at your screenshots! But when I try to reproduce it, it behaves fine for me, the names are correct (well, rounded to ones).
Can you help me to find what differs? It should not be like this.An error occurred while saving the comment Yes, Anne, it seems like UserVoice treats links without protocol clearly stated as local ones :) Added 'https://'; and now it should work.
Thanks for mentioning it! -

An error occurred while saving the comment Not sure I understand.
Do you mean that when you try to make a single click, Illustrator makes a double-click instead?
What does 'overrides the whole operating system' mean then? Please elaborate. -

Shape’s width and height differ from path's width and height, as explained in comments.
To deal with the second half of the problem, vote for this request to make Offset Path to respect the original position and the direction of a path.

Please upvote it if you want this as an option!An error occurred while saving the comment Renny, there is an actual explanation.
Let me show.1. Grab the Rectangle tool
2. Draw a narrow horizontal rectangle, starting from top left angle
3. Open Stroke panel and assign endpoint arrowhead
As you can see, the last (and the first point) of the rectangle is the point where you release the cursor4. Now make a copy of this rectangle and rotate it 90°
Check both, comparing their parameters in Transform panel — to see both the Width/Height AND Rectangle Width/Height — since these are two different things. The path’s width and height are just X and Y lengths. The shape’s width and height depend on the rotation of the path relative to its starting point. That’s why we can select both copies of you rectangle and change their 'rectangle widths' at the same time — that’s why we have live shapes in the first place! You can rotate a rectangle to an arbitrary angle, and Ai will still allow you to change the rectangle’s dimensions... while the path’s width and height would become recalculated according to the rotation value.5. Now select both and apply Object > Path > Offset Path.
Do you notice anything strange?
Even thought the starting points differed for both paths/shapes, the new ones Ai assigns are the leftmost-and-bottommost ones — despite the original position of starting points.
But since it makes an offset path of a rectangle into a rectangle (makes sense), it leads to 'swapping' you observe.In other words — if you lay down, you height won’t change, right? :)

An error occurred while saving the comment Rienk, I’m not sure I get the request. Can you share some screenshots, please, to elaborate?
Is it something that still happens for you?
If yes — can you please tell more, show some screenshots, steps, video, test files?
