An error occurred while saving the comment Jeffrey, the panel group is docked, correct? The button above shows it’s expanded, but the screenshot is cropped, and I feel like it’s something below it at the bottom, as if it’s not.
But the behavior is familiar, although I had it previously with a completely different arrangement. Panels get changes in their layout and the overall height changes. Can you please share the display’s actual height in pixels and a video (fullscreen), showing you trying to expand the panels? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Alex, what happens if you disable both Appearance options in the Eyedropper Options dialog?
I yet to test this in older builds, but here’s how it looks when I try.
Since the look of characters (fill and stroke, colors) is applied to characters themselves, not the type object as a whole, with these options checked the tool applies the parent’s appearance (no fill and no stroke), to all the children of the object clicked... it looks rather odd, agree, Appearance is a tough beast. I should test it more. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Jim, please share the files with the team: the original DXFs, the .ai generated by 2024 Ai build and the one produced by the 2026 version, along with the screenshot of settings used.
You can attach these into a comment (if it works) or send directly to the team via sharewithai@adobe.com (in this case please mention the report’s link, https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/51297973) -

An error occurred while saving the comment Rashaad, it seems like the screenshot got lost... please try to attach it into a comment. Ideally, a video would be better.
As for now I can’t reproduce it. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Kace, does it happen with this file only? Does it happen consistently, even after you close/reopen the document, or close/relaunch the app?
If yes — can you please share this document with the team? Share a copy here (you can remove the contents, if it doesn’t change the behavior, leave artboards only), or send fully as it is privately to sharewithai@adobe.com (in this case please mention the link to this report for fast backtracking, https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/51294955) -

An error occurred while saving the comment I confirm.
Rectangle (being a path with a custom 'live shape' attribute, allowing it to have rectangle-specific control in Transform and elsewhere) looses the 'live shape' status when a Shear value is applied to it.
It looks like these just don’t support shearing.

An error occurred while saving the comment I recognize the controls shown in the video :)
While Ai doesn’t have it, it still allows fast skewing.
Tap E to pick Free Transform tool. Hover over a side’s middle, click and drag across the side (hold Shift to constrain the movement to exclude resizing).Personally I don’t use the bounding box at all (I rarely need it to obstruct my corners and anchors)... I’d agree with the need, but personally would rarely use it anyway.
Plus I have to mention the dedicated Shear tool, that does nothing but slanting. It has no default hotkey assigned though, and it’s another tool, same as Free Transform.

An error occurred while saving the comment Laura, it seems like your document is viewed in CPU preview... This what makes the artwork look like it’s been multiplied with the simulated color paper’s color. And this is actually what this option is intended to do — if one prints a white rectangle on a yellow paper, it’d be yellow — as if overprinted. It’s just the GPU Preview was never designed to display overprints and calculate blend modes precisely, its original goal was to make displaying the artwork fast... alas, it’s where it mostly stopped, and it’s still not consistent with the accurate CPU Preview.
So you are using a flaw :)
I have no idea what made it toggle from GPU to CPU though.Anyway, I’d suggest using a recently introduced 'artboard color' instead. It was intended to replace this hack.

An error occurred while saving the comment This most probably happens because of the 'Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities' option you can spot in the 'Save Adobe PDF' dialog.
It inserts a full copy of the document (in Ai’s native PGF language) inside your generated PDF, to make sure you can edit it back in Illustrator, if you want to (MANY users save their docs into these 'editable PDFs').
The more images your document has, the heavier it makes the PDF.
InDesign never cares about this backwards compatibility, every PDF produced is a final thing to view and print only, and you can’t edit it back fully.Please try to disable the option (and save the settings as a new preset for future use) and compare the results.

An error occurred while saving the comment Ah, ESKO, right. I never got into packaging that deep to purchase a license. An I still believe they don’t showcase their tools enough to persuade me trying the package. Plus I think I
Back to the problem. Can you please show me the Appearance panel for this group selected, or just share the test file?
An error occurred while saving the comment Also — I don’t seem to recognize to recognize the tool panel visible in the top right corner. Look very familiar though... What plugin is this?
An error occurred while saving the comment Still not clear what is happening exactly — the Layers panel and especially the Appearance panel aren’t in view. Thus I can’t see what the appearance gets sampled and applied...
But I’d advise to disable both 'Apariencia' options in your Opciones de Cuentagotas dialog and check again. Using these without the Appearance panel is walking in a mine field!Marcelo, can you also share the test file, so I can see what happens exactly there?
Please remove everything that is private in the copy, but make sure the behavior still exists in what’s left.
It’d help me to see if this is truly a bug or not.An error occurred while saving the comment Marcelo, it’s definitely odd. What are you Eyedropper options set?
Please try to share a test file with an example of an object with a wrongly applied appearance. If you ever catch it happening, please include both a copy of the original object before sampling and the source object you sample the appearance from. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Vous souvenez-vous d'avoir rencontré ce problème dans une version précédente ?
Pour l'instant, je ne peux que vous proposer d'utiliser la boîte de dialogue Avancé et de cocher l'option « Ouvrir la boîte de dialogue de recoloration avancée au lancement » pour contourner le bug.Do you remember having this problem in a previous version?
As for now, I can only offer to use the Advanced dialog and tick the 'Open Advance Recolor Artwork dialog on launch' in it to bypass the bug. -

An error occurred while saving the comment ¿Podrías explicarlo con más detalle, tanto con palabras como con un vídeo? ¿Qué intentas hacer y cómo funciona en tu caso? Además, ¿qué versión y sistema operativo utilizas?
Can you please tell and show more, with both words and in a video? What are you trying to do and how it it behaves for you? Also, what version and OS are you using?

An error occurred while saving the comment It was never fast for me on Windows, even with plugins disabled.
I’d love to have a way to see a log to see what plugin (1st or 3rd party plugin) causes Ai to choke.

An error occurred while saving the comment I see, you just want all handles always displayed for a fully selected object...
Back in 2018 I made a request to at least rendered those that are shown when an object is transformed, here: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/35931781
Then, there was a request to show the anchors for all other objects, to snap something to them:
https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/35012974All modes do make sense, although in specific conditions...
Speaking of this specific thing you mean, I see the difference in the behavior comparing Affinity and Ai.
Affinity operates in something close to the 'soft isolation' mode (requested here: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/32614096, as well as mentioned in several other request). So, if one selects several anchors in different paths, moving one handle won’t make the all other paths other than the one that has the anchor deselected — Ai, however, drops the other path’s selection. Is this what you mean?An error occurred while saving the comment Jill, do you mean that Ai should display all handles for all the anchors even when they are NOT selected?
Or do you want to see handles for anchors that ARE selected?If the latter, there is a dedicated button in the Control panel (not Properties) that does exactly this — 'Show handles for multiple selected anchor points'.
Does it work for you? -

An error occurred while saving the comment When I try to open the attached file and check the fonts in the middle, Ai doesn’t tell it’s Myriad, it just shows no name at all.
If I try to change the fonts applied to the actual Myriad itself, it’s not it. So the fonts rendered is Inter actually — but it's Bold for me, not Thin as I see in your screenshot...
If I remove all other unspoiled text object in the document and check Type > Find/Replace Font dialog, I’m getting no fonts used. Document Info panel shows NONE as well.My only guess it’s somehow related with the recently (relatively) added option 'Embed permitted fonts for file preview' ins the Illustrator Options dialog Ai shows us on Save. When I try to resave the document though, this option is disabled, and it makes me think it was disabled when the document was saved.
Can you force it to Inter Thin?

An error occurred while saving the comment This black dot is not a center point actually, but a hilite widget. Dragging it would make the center of the gradient offset.
Since you gradient doesn’t have a color stop at 0%, there is none shown at the annotator’s ramp — and it would sit right there in the center of a circle. -

An error occurred while saving the comment The same principle applies to other things than swatches, that can’t be conjured up in a dialog. What about brushes? graphic styles? symbols? Ai locks the canvas when a dialog is open (for obvious reasons), you can’t drag anything from a canvas to the dialog. It’s still an interesting idea to ponder about, but it breaks more than fixes for now.
@Cactus, judging by the underline that your bottom layer’s name has ('Color Fill 1 Image'), the layer has an opacity mask applied.
Target the layer, open the Transparency panel and check if the layer has a rectangular mask. I’m pretty sure it does.
I notice many apps like Figma and Canva just love applying this when they try to export PDFs... so if this document was partially imported, this might explain getting the opacity mask. It’s not that simple to create in Ai, so it’s hardly a misclick.
Please comment back if this is the case.
