An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment I’d drop the triangle to have less confusion with spots and globals and went with the quad, like this.
An error occurred while saving the comment I’d like to have some way of indicating pattern swatches though. There are some problems with confusing some of them, accidentally made from flat shapes, with ordinary color swatches.

An error occurred while saving the comment Herbie, it’s been like this since at least Ai 10, so I believe it never was like you want it to be. It makes a general sense, if one thinks of making a PDF as of 'printing' a document. This ensures the consistency between the printed PDF document and the intention to not have some layers printed.
This is very narrow request, I believe...
If I ever had a task like this at hand, I’d made a custom script that toggles the option to make layers printable, exports a PDF and then toggles the option back. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks for the file.
I both can confirm that and fail to find anything suspicious in the style, using the Paragraph Style Options dialog... I am letting the team know about this.AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) supported this idea ·An error occurred while saving the comment Can’t confirm that on Windows.
Can you share a test file, please?
Does it really happen with any font?
How exactly do you input quotes?
What if you paste them instead opf typing?
Are you sure you never had this bug in the previous version? Can you check it? -

An error occurred while saving the comment So you created this first with the iPad version, then opened it on the desktop, and then on the iPad again and got this messed up scattering, right? or the order of operations is different?
Can you please make the exact order of steps one needs to reproduce the problem and share a test file you can reproduce these with? You don’t have to share the full document, unless the bug does not happen in a simpler file.
You can share the link here, if you are allowed and willing to do it publicly, or send it over to sharewithai@adobe.com for the team to look into. In this case, please mention the link to this report, so they can track it: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/931888/suggestions/46674658

An error occurred while saving the comment I know two workflows to make this happen.
First.
1. Enable smart guides
2. Grab the intersection of the rulers (the zero point) and drag it over the center of your object (assuming there is one, you can enable it in Attributes panel with Show Center), or to a chosen point on canvas. If your pattern is built with its center in the center of its module, this should effectively center the module in the object.
3. Cut the shape
4. Reset coordinates (or return them to their original position in cases you were not using the default zero). Make sure you have Transform Pattern Tiles option enabled in Preferences!
5. Paste the object
Now you have the pattern centered.
Just watch the GIF.Second.
Use a free script instead — Reset Pattern.jsx by Toshiyuki Takahashi (gau)

Hi Everyone,
The fix for this request is available in our latest release build – 27.3. The version is being rolled out.
What’s new in 27.3: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/whats-new/2023-2.html
Thank you for all the feedback.
An error occurred while saving the comment @Łukasz (and @Marc),
yep, and this is a known thing too, and it’s been under discussion for months.And the developer is not sure about this. See, Ai is a live tool, and changing things like this can often bring more pain — it happened many times before. So they got cautious and prefer to get more feedback to figure out the actual demand.
Here is another related report:
https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/40866958-colour-values-change-on-their-own-very-frustratinSee, this is more complex than it may seem. You say you work with global swatches a lot (I do as well). Unlike spot colors, global color swatches remember the values using the document color model — whichever mode you specify when creating a global swatch. It’s been like this for years, since very beginning. It makes sense — in a way.
So if we work in CMYK and create a global swatch and choose HSB, like 150-100-50, — Ai will recalculate these values into CMYK. If we open the dialog back — we will get CMYK values, because this is what is stored. And if we change the mode in the dialog back to HSB, we will get something like 150.08-100-50.2.
We can create spot colors instead — they respect the chosen mode for keeping values, but this creates additional colors in actual separations, and this is NOT what those who print want, at all.
So the problem is not about 'remembering the chosen mode' here, but about 'remembering global swatches using the specified values in the chosen mode' — which is a more heavy and potentially hazardous change. If it goes the simpler route and just forces a viewing mode instead of actually keeping values using it — like you say — then Ai will LIE to a user about the values, forcing fractions, like in the example above. 'Hey, I set other values!!! Why Illustrator adds fractions?!' — oh, this happens all the time even now, and this will get worse.
So, given this — what are your thoughts on the change?
Regarding 'do you even test those things before publishing those new "features"?' — yes. But Łukasz, did you test it? This change was first pushed into Beta. Did you try it?AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) supported this idea · -

An error occurred while saving the comment Photoshop has a dedicated command for changing this behavior: in Preferences > File Handling: Do not append "copy" to filename when saving a copy.
It feels like you want the same thing in Ai, right?
Do you prefer this as an option like Ps has, or do you specifically want a 'Suffix' checkmark, like we have in Ai now on export?
Both ways are consistent, but ...differently :) -

An error occurred while saving the comment That’s an interesting proposal, and yes, I had this problem myself. Not sure if someone requested it. Can you, please?
An error occurred while saving the comment Marc, I understand your confusion. Recolor panel is intimidating!
If you share a test file (not exactly this one) and say which color you want to replace with what other one, I can record you a short demo to show the method.An error occurred while saving the comment Marc, Illustrator allows this already, but in a different way.
— Select the art to limit the selection, where you want this replacement to be limited to (it won’t work for all the document if you don’t select anything, unfortunately)
— Edit > Edit Colors > Recolor Artwork (or just the Recolor button in the Control or the Properties panels)
— Hit Advanced Options button, if it launches in the compact mode
— In the New column, double click the color you want to change and pick the colour you want to use instead (you can choose from the document’s swatches, if you click Color Swatches button)
— Hit Apply and ApplyIt might look like it’s a longer way (7-8 steps!), but that’s because Ai just allows much more with this dialog. And InDesign’s route is not really that longer, if you count clicks.
Reply back about if it works for you, and if it does not — please tell why.
And BTW, thanks for the recent activity here. We need more action here.

An error occurred while saving the comment Two commercial plugin solutions now can do that:
1. Extract Dashes command in PathScribe panel from Astute Graphics
2. A dedicated command in CADtools 13 from Hot DoorAn error occurred while saving the comment This is now possible with the Extract Dashes option in the PathScribe plugin panel from Astute Graphics. So cool.
