    Hmm. Can you share a screenshot of your setup and explain it further?
    Not sure I get why you do it and how you do it.

    Curt, thanks for the report. Not good!
    It’s not clear exactly how do you put the images as an overlay. Is it just clipped, or used as an opacity mask?
    Can you please package a test file with one of these included and send it to the team to investigate, using sharewithai@adobe.com?

    Joseph, take a look at this:
    http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48699680
    It’s hardly a thing you requested, and it’s in very early stages of development, but perhaps this is something you can use?

    This reminds of the Magnetic Lasso Tool in Photoshop, that does exactly that — traces a line (although not exactly vector) based on the raster image below.
    Later they added Content-Aware Tracing Tool to create actual paths, but it tries to create paths instantly, often disjointed are hardly beautiful.
    I like the idea, but I doubt the team is going to invest into a semi-automated tools that are very limited in their appliance... I bet they will try to modernize the image tracing algorithms further, and they will always fail :(

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/033g7lejaeq5v5q/select_stroke_fhmx.gif
    FreeHand allowed to select a shape by clicking its stroke, but it was not able to select it if you marquee it or its edge even (Ai does the latter). This is enclosing mode by default. But if you hold Alt (white arrow enables) and marquee a piece of it, you get whole shape selected when Alt is released (not like if you tried its Direct Selection white arrow, that does the same as Ai's). So in FH we had both enclosing and partial marquee modes! From the box! Ai has only one and has no by-stroke selection.

    Stroke is immune to a selection. To select an object with a bold stroke, you have to precisely click the actual edge of it or marquee through it.

    There is an option to make the bounding box include strokes, 'Use Preview Bounds', but it doesn’t affect this behaviour.

    It’d be nice to have a separate option that allows users to click anywhere on a stroke and select the object with it.

    Sudhir, there is not enough default free keyboard shortcuts to assign all of these commands.
    But you can assign them to any keys you want via Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts: Menu commands, in Object > Align.

    If you want Illustrator team to implement this feature for everybody to use — sure, you won’t get paid for sharing a request here.

    If you want to make a plugin yourself that does this and have profit — don’t post anything if you think that your idea is worth it.

    Ideas are cheap though.

    Lotte, can you please elaborate on this?
    Illustrator does now allow to rotate artboards, it can rotate only the view of the canvas. And when it does it, the object surely are rotated with the canvas. So what do you ask for exactly? Can you make a mockup of it maybe, or just explain in different words?

    Jessica, I was finally be able to look into the file you shared.
    The structure inside didn’t really answer what happened, but allows to compare the broken clip groups to the one that survived (the one at the top, with the red tie).

    Take a look at the first image attached.
    The tree on the left is the survived one, the one on the right is broken.
    Both are quite messy and strange, but the one on the right is just 'Group', and the clipping group inside has nothing in it but the mask.

    I ahve my guess on why this happened technically, but to prove it I’d need to take a look at the tree like this for the object BEFORE the file get saved and reopened — Ai seems to change the order of objects in clipping groups.

    But you can avoid this problem in the first place, if you do these simpler, with no duplicates — take a look at the .ai file attached and the second image. All you need to do is a single path (with a stroke applied to it) and the clipped image.

    Take a look at these and comment back, please.

    Elizabeth, the team suspects that can be triggered by moving the original file to another folder while it’s still opened.

    Then, if Ai crashes, if can’t properly locate it and it leads to this exact problem.

    Does it sound like something that could have been the case?

    Hey, I got this myself!
    Ai crashed.
    On relaunch it offered me to restore the file and correctly displayed its name in the dialog.
    When I agreed to restore it, I got 'Print.ai' profile opened.
    I checked if it’s the actual 'document profile or just a new one named like this — and indeed Ctr+Shift+S opened 'New Document Profiles' folder! It IS the document profile! Why does this happen?

    Strange.
    'Print.ai' is a name one of the document profiles Ai uses to base new documents upon. There are also 'Web.ai', 'Mobile', 'Film & Video', 'Art & Illustration'... the same ones you see in File New dialog.
    As far as I know, when Ai crashes or gets forcefully closed, it tries to restore docs, but tries only once. In case it crashes again on launch, the temporary files he uses to restore data, are deleted anyway. Kind of lame, actually...
    But I never experienced having blank documents opened instead of getting these recovered, on definitely no opening a document profile itself!

    Hope this never happens again, but if it does, please try to see what folder it opens when you try to save changes to this 'Print.ai', just to be sure it’s the actual document profile file.
