An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment There are two related requests:
1. A more general Deactivate unused functions / tools / filters / plugins — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/32612413
2. A more dedicated An ability to disable all generative tools and options, like Text to Vector Graphic, Generative Pattern... — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/47462738
I think yours apply to both, really. The blue dot problem (Ai requires us to use a tool or a command or a function that has it to make it go away) is a separate problem I don’t recall anyone reporting, however a single report it being stuck exists: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50453091 — is it the same problem? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Hey, finally someone requested this! I forbade myself to do it.
Currently we can use Draw Inside mode:
1. Select the object to be clipped
2. Cut it
3. Select the object to be the mask
4. Press Shift + D twice (or click the tiny button at the bottom of the toolbar once) — dashed brackets appear to mark the mode
5. Paste in Place
This keeps the appearance of both paths... as well as Ai now allows.There is an array of related requests and reports here at UV to make the clipping experience better. I post it here for others to crawl.
- Draw Inside method — many prefer it to original clip commands, because it doesn’t require the specific order: you cut a thing you need to clip, select the clipping-to-be path, change the Draw method and Paste (in Front / Back / in Place).
- Draw Inside doesn’t work when a clipping group is selected, requires to select its clipping mask specifically — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/49065740- Compound shape trick
- Clipping compound shape doesn't have edges drawn — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/45269581
- Draw Inside won’t work with live compound shapes — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/49064681- Respect appearances — while Draw Inside method keeps the appearance of the clipping-to-be path, original clip commands don’t. And we need the control.
- Allow clipping paths to have complex appearances — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/45088255
- Please allow us to apply proper strokes to clip groups: centered, inside, outside — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/36674830
- Add an option to preserve the color of the Clipping Mask when creating a Clipping Mask — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/51567620 — this very request this is posted in- Clip with top path / clip into bottom path methods
- Scripts — https://github.com/nimbling/Nimbling_Scripts#clip-scripts, by Herman van Boeijen
- A separate Add Clipping Mask Feature Similar to Corel Draw's Powerclip — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48659723, that most likely is about the 'pick the clip' method, used by Ai’s recent Objects on Path (BTW, Corel’s take on this is superior)- Allow selecting a clipping mask by its fill — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31558588
- Compound path trick
- Pathfinder Crop problem
- Select children in isolation problem
- Order problem: Illustrator pulls clippings masks to the top of their clip groups when a document is reopened — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/48267722- Treat groups as a result of Unite and not Intersect when using as a clipping mask — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49178642 — Affinity (Designer) started with this method from the start. I bet it’s connected to layer-level clips...
- By the way, Edit Contents button in Control panel ignores the scope and always prefers the layer-level clip to the selected object-level clip — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/49183784

- Paste into selected object — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/40862908 — actually means 'paste and clip'
- Non-destructive clipping mask options — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49119035 — read as 'use appearance to clip, not path'

Are you on 30.7 or 30.6? -

An error occurred while saving the comment That’s a great find, thanks! I’ll try to find someone who might be interested in fixing this.
An error occurred while saving the comment Florian, do you mean by width, visually? Or do you mean given names that differ?

An error occurred while saving the comment Alas. no news so far. The only workaround we have right now is to add an extra point :(
An error occurred while saving the comment @Kai, please attach the original document into a comment. It seems like UV prevented it from getting attached to the report itself.

An error occurred while saving the comment It still doesn’t require and other panels at all, you can do this with on-canvas widgets and tools — just like in this GIF attached.
Can you please record how it looks for you?An error occurred while saving the comment Maxine, do you mean it doesn’t work for you like this? Can you show what happens when you try?

An error occurred while saving the comment I myself use Transform effect a lot (I have it bound to a hotkey), but I haven’t noticed anything like this on Windows 10...
Can you record a comparison, to see the actual difference? Does it happen with any objects it’s applied to, or a specific one?
Does Beta build behave any different? -

An error occurred while saving the comment ご報告いただきありがとうございます。
背景要素を含むテストファイル（元のドキュメントからはおそらく他に何も必要ありません）、プリンター名と仕様、使用しているドライバーのバージョン、およびOSの完全な仕様を共有していただけますでしょうか？これらの情報があれば、調査チームが調査を開始するのに役立ちます。 -

Asset export dialog does not have this option to export each file as a separate file it only has option on all artboards in one file, range of artboards or selected artboards in the dialog or the whole of document into one pdf file.
I am moving this request as a new feature requestAn error occurred while saving the comment Illustrator also includes clipped content into exported .ai-files, not PDFs even, when they touch these artboards, even though the clipping masks belong to other artboards.

An error occurred while saving the comment A somewhat related request, about a similar problem with cleaning up canvas when exporting PDF with Illustrator Compatibility enabled:
https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/32252662An error occurred while saving the comment Yes, this would be a valid improvement.
I include this simple test file for everyone else to test. The second artboard is having a rectangle that touches the first artboard, but is clipped within the bound of the second artboards. If one tries to use Export for Screens with .ai format, the first file would have the clipping group included on canvas next to it (and the third one would not).For some odd reason Ai includes clipped contents in calculating the bounds if clip groups, and these get dragged into artboards that don’t need them. Strangely, Ai’s own Select > All on Active Artboard command treats the selection as expected, so it’s the collector’s flaw, not the inability to detect these.

An error occurred while saving the comment I can reproduce this in GA 30.6, but not in the latest Beta 30.8.0.54 with the options shared: the width and the height of the <svg> hugs a test object within the file in GA, but follows the artboard in Beta.
In both cases the Use Artboards option in the Save a Copy dialog is disabled.An error occurred while saving the comment @Sketch, can you please also share the original .ai file you used to generate these?

Speaking of Pencil — have you tried to actually draw with it? Double-click the tool icon to open the tool options dialog?
I’m with you about the customization and less bloat.
The way I personally treat requests and reports is to have less copies, because it makes less fragmentation and thus makes vote count more concentrated. Their inception dates matter little — some of the QOL things Ai recently got (the small things most of us care about) were requested 9 years ago or earlier, before UV. What matters I think is that when the team gets bandwidth to pick one up, it’s heavy enough to persuade those who decide to pick one up, and a solid story is there for them to agree it matters. Plus it’s important to see if the flow of votes, something that is visible from the inside.
That’s why I merge (and split occasionally), correct titles, add details, comments, cross-link...
