An error occurred while saving the comment Nikki, the team would require one of these TIFs to study to get it fixed.
Please share one, here (if you can publicly share it), or privately, via sharewithai@adobe.com (mention the link to this report then so it can be tracked — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/46938196)
I suspect there is some minor error in the file which prevent Illustrator to import it. It happened before with other formats. So — the file! Nothing can be done without it. -

Please accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience. Please get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html . Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.

An error occurred while saving the comment Also, I really wish for it to be visually consistent with existing panels, like this GIF demonstrates (now VS proposed).
Sure, the Filter button can be pressed and will have some padding I didn’t include, but you get the idea.AdminEgor Chistyakov

Hi Everyone,
This functionality is available in our latest release build – 27.6.1.
The new functionality allows searching layers by name using the searchbar in the layers panel. The users can also apply filters based on layer properties (locked, hidden etc) or objects properties (effects, text etc.). This will help to quickly find layers/objects for large documents (having multiple layers).

Thank you for all the feedback.

@Konstantin H. and @Deb Schroeder — I already added you.An error occurred while saving the comment 1. Full text search by name
2. Replace text (with an option wot work with selection objects only) — this is hard since we have two ways of selecting objects, on canvas and in Layers, and there is still no a good way to covert one selection into another — you might want to look at it now
3. A way to apply any several filters at the same time, unlike Photoshop which allows to apply only some.
4. A way to save, load and manage filter options — in a modern way, and not like you treat workspace, tools presets, and especially poor Views and Selections — these have to get improved too.
5. Take a look at options provided with various external tools — FindReplace Art plugin by Astute Graphics, Select Menu plugin by RJ Graffix, NitPicker plugin by Hot Door, a way Corel Draw manages search options. It’s also a good time to review native Select commands.
6. Take a look at various scripts which try to patch the hole, especially at RenameItems (https://github.com/creold/illustrator-scripts/blob/master/md/Item.md#renameitems) by Sergey Osokin, and other scripts on the same page.
7. As Oleg says, see how Figma does it and see what plugins does their community create, like this one: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1034178978552865811
8. Don’t forget these need their own hotkeys, available APIs, be open to scripts and actions.
9. Think about a proper integration with everything AI has on board now, especially Global Edit, Show/Hide, Select command.
Since it’s a major change, we really expect to get a way to test it earlier to see if it all works at all before you push it into the release.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Yep, the team made some changes into panning, and so far it glitches a bit.
However the description does not match exactly with what I am getting...
Can you please record a short video to demonstrate it? Also please provide you full OS and GPU details. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Ehimo, please tell more.
Provide some screenshots, a test file, explain details.
The team can’t start investigating based just on 'blend modes are not working' :/
What is happening exactly? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah, the team is being working to fix this problem :( The latest update (and probably some earlier ones) broke something in the algorithm...
The only workaround so far it to downgrade and wait.An error occurred while saving the comment Avinash, we still need an Expand button right there in the dedicated panel.

An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah, I’ve seen this before... sometimes it happens after an update, sometimes when I restores settings... I can’t figure out what causes it and get the steps to get it intentionally.
Does it help to go to Window > Workspace > Reset the workspace? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Giovana, do you still have the file?
If you open Layers — does these show you any objects within?
Can you share the file with the team? Attach it here if you can and want, or send it over to sharewithai@adobe.com directly -

An error occurred while saving the comment Somewhat similar problem sometimes happens with Align panel. Despite one method for Align To should be always active, it is possible somehow to get NONE of them selected, all three buttons appear depressed. It leads to all other main buttons just doing nothing. No error pops even.

An error occurred while saving the comment Ah, that’s what you mean!
Agree, these are disabled for me as well on Windows.
Well, this is weird. I almost remember them being available... Perhaps I am confusing them with something else.
TGA also doesn’t not allow artboards being used!An error occurred while saving the comment Doesn’t happen to me.
Can you demonstrate it? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Bev, learning is hard. Also, Illustrator is somewhat old. Despite it gets improved constantly, some paradigms it uses are 30 years old. It has a lot less functions at the start, and reading a manual was the intended way of learning new stuff. Today it does not always work like that, we always in a hurry, we are pampered with Google and instant search, we want interactivity... Reading the manual still works though :)
Discover panel ties to solve this, but I agree the way it works is still not perfect.Having 'instant' help on any command/cool/thing in Ai can be useful, I agree. In some older apps, I remember, there was a way to click a Help button, located in the top right corner and click anything to get a help article on it.
Another way to get a short hint on something is to hover and wait long enough — this way it won’t interfere with the workflow when you are familiar with a software enough. This method is harder to discover, but it’s natural.
And Illustrator does hos rich tooltips for tools now, if you hover over a tool icon long enough — but not for every other thing.To other concerns.
Illustrator can’t guess if a short answer on anything is sufficient specifically for you. It can’t know what your level is. So it gives a full article, and you are free to use any other tool to compress or summarize it to suite your needs, Modern AI-tools (not Ai, but AI) offer a lot of ways to avoid reading. But learning is always hard :) It’s up to you to search, to sieve and reject the parts you don’t need.
Then indeed, if you type in 'stylize' in Discover — it does not provide a separate article on each of existing effects... And the 'Summary of effects' you mentions is not a complete summary and refers to the Photoshop Effects section of the Effect menu... and the only way to get a search function for the article in the Discover panel is to scroll it down until you see a 'Read article in browser'... and the panel does not allow to select a text even. All of these are valid.
Still, the best way to know what each effect does in the Stylize form Illustrator Effects section of the Effect menu — is to try to apply one to an object. Enable preview and play with values.
Again, it does not mean the concerns you raise are bad! It’s just the experimentation is still the best way to learn, and will always be, as we are humans.Then, the hidden Scissors problem. True, if you have it hidden within the Eraser tool group, Discover won’t show the proper icon, but will highlight the group. Clicking it though will make it active properly — does it for you?
And there is know way to guess if Scissors is in this group, sure. But learning is not guessing, and most of things we learn are not intuitive, since intuition at first is based on a not specific enough knowledge. The more you learn, the more it makes sense for you. Once you learn tools get be grouped, you can learn they are grouped relatively by similarity, they you learn which group has which, then you learn about you can make your own tool panels, then about hidden tools, then you learn you can access them faster with hotkeys, etc.
And honestly, when the team tries to make this process 'easier to learn', with Essentials workspace, hiding some less-used tools, and forcing the previous default, more complex workspace, into non-default Essentials Classic... it gets harder for new users to learn... but this advanced workspace still has Scissors within the Eraser group :)I wish you all the best. Again, learning is tough. And Illustrator should also learn to become easier to get learned for sure. Compared to modern videogames — a lot.
An error occurred while saving the comment Bev, just recently Adobe introduced Discover panel, available by calling Help > Illustrator Help (or just hitting F1). I tried searching 'expand' — here is how it looks, see the GIF.
I can see where the associated tools and functions are locate (Illustrator highlights them for me when I hover in the app — not shown). Click the first help article, scroll to Expand section — and here you go, it’s written right there: what does Expand do, how it looks.
You can open the page in the browser if you want.So I have no troubles answering the Expand question. I re-recorded the GIF once, I admit, to make it look better, but the experience was the very same the first time I tried to search 'expand'.
So — have you seen it? Have you tired it? Does it fit your expectations? If not — why and how? I don’t say it’s perfect, and more improvements can be made, so please tell more about it after testing the Discover.

Kyle, just WOW.
I’ve never seen anything like this, although use this method a lot!
Can you please share the file? With these pieces only.
