An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment There is a plugin called Rasterino, from the AstuteGraphics plugins pack, which allows exactly this — open an embedded image in Photoshop, and update one when it’s saved. It also allows better cropping and trimming and other useful things. I advise to try it, if you need this often. Too long to wait until Ai team implements something, AG team managed to invent a decade ago.
An error occurred while saving the comment I kinda protest. What AI need is an ability to open embedded images directly in PS, as Rasterino plugin now allows.

An error occurred while saving the comment This sounds like a good idea.
When I export and tick 'Use Artboards', I have to remember which one.
I got used to remember which artboards I need to save/export BEFORE going to saving/exporting.
So my colleagues often hear something like 'from 2 to 12, 15, 16, from 20 to 36' I repeat aloud to better remember if :)But I also think it could slow process down.
So here are my thoughts about implementation of this (if this would ever be implemented):
1. Make sure AI doesn't show previews right from the start — drawing small images takes time. Each time I place AI-files in Photoshop I waste time waiting for it to draw all miniatures. So tick is required AND option to remember it's state.
2. AI should give us way to export artboards selected IN Artboards palette OR just in document. Like this we could have select artboards we need, either way (since it's possible now to select multiple artboards), and the AI would catch selection and propose it as save/export range.
I don't get why it's has been done yet.But all of this can wait until ton of bugs is fixed.

An error occurred while saving the comment In InDesign you hold Shift while panning to constrain the movement to axes. Th same thing could benefit Illustrator too.

An error occurred while saving the comment LC, there is eCut plugin for Ai, that does it, and CorelDraw’s package is even more powerful.
The problem with nesting is that it’s quite complex problem...
eCut solves it fine, but not perfect. Voted. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Yes, Lewis, I do agree with the comment. This is bonkers and I hope got have it at least clarified in the app. Thanks for raising this issue, because I just had no time to log it myself! Hope there would be others to upvote this.

An error occurred while saving the comment Treat those in Document Setup as 'local' units. You can also choose them by clicking with the right mouse button at the intersection of rulers.
These are responsible for all ruler-nased sizes in a document — dimensions, coordinates, grids... They are more important.Those defined in Preferences are 'global' units. These force the units across all documents once changed. Try to create a Print-based doc, and a Web-based doc (they use 'mm' (if you are not i US) and 'px').
If you change 'global' general units in Preferences to 'mm', you will get your rulers switched to local 'mm' in all opened documents.
If you change them again to 'px' — all your docs will get 'px' as local units.
But changing these only in Document Setup (locally) won’t change other opened documents.
This is a fairly obscured behaviour, I agree! But once you learn it, it makes sense. Ai just never cared to explain it properly (and I learn it by chance myself).
Does it make sense for you?
An error occurred while saving the comment Lewis, can you also check two places:
Units in Preferences and Document Setup?

An error occurred while saving the comment So true :( And so little votes.
Unfortunately , the only workaround I can offer is to drag object inside of a clipping mask by path and use Cmd/Ctrl modifier to enable 'Snap to Cursor Position' mode.Please reply back if it helps at all.

An error occurred while saving the comment Indeed it does.
Even with 'Use Preview Bounds on', even with Outline Stroke effect applied...
I guess the only workaround for this now would be to expand the stroke first, since you are going to rasterize it anyway.Thanks for reporting this.

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 The screenshot obviously has only the path selected and not the photo with it, because the bounding box surrounds only the path.
You have to select both object for the clipping to work — otherwise Illustrator won’t understand what exactly do you want to clip with what path.

An error occurred while saving the comment Indeed it does! To my defense I can say I tried to expand stroke, while the test document has brushes applied to all lines, and not exactly simple strokes, which are considered to be a basic apperance.
But I can offer you a workaround for that — just isolate your single path and you will be able to expand appearance only for this path only.
An error occurred while saving the comment Diane, thanks for the report and the update — it really makes it clear.
So, this is indeed an expected and intended behaviour. When you apply the appearance to a whole layer, it acts as a container for the stuff inside and dictates the style for them.Sure, if you pick only one thing from a 'decorated box', it won’t know anything about the decoration of the box...
The other problem, with the expanding stroke, is strange. It should not expand at all, since it does not have the appearance — if it’s the same styled layer problem from above.
Can you share the test file here? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Can you share a simple test file with art objects that behave that drastically different?
You can share them here if you are allowed to, or send privately over sharewithai@adobe.comThis is not normal behaviour, so it’s either machine or document specific problem. Please provide your full OS specs, including GPU and memory details.

An error occurred while saving the comment 'Can not change' — does it mean the dropdown list is disabled and you can’t click it?
Or you are able to choose the 'English: USA' option, but it gets reverted back as soon as you choose it?
Or it is chosen, but gets reverted back when you make a change to a text?
Or something else entirely?Does it happen in this document only?
What about previously created files?
What about a completely new file, based on one of the standart Illustrator’s document profiles, like Print?Have you tried to reset Preferences? (here is a good instruction how to do that — https://astutegraphics.com/support/tutorials-and-troubleshooting/resetting-illustrator-preferences)

An error occurred while saving the comment Perhaps you might want to vote for this request instead?
https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests/suggestions/44104935-absolute-mode-that-always-sets-a-fill-a-single-cli
It is about a CorelDraw-like approach with a left-click setting the fill and right-click setting the stroke:Your solution feels clumsy, to be honest, it requires precise clicking, muddies swathes’ colors, creates annoying moiré. But I dig the cause!

An error occurred while saving the comment Have you tried to reset preferences? (here is a nice instruction on this: https://astutegraphics.com/support/tutorials-and-troubleshooting/resetting-illustrator-preferences)
If it does not work — can you try to reinstall it?When did it start to happen?
Did you install any plugins recently?
Do any other dialog get opened, except for Save? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Curtis, can you please check the Align panel’s menu and see if you have any of two options for Align to Glyph Bounds checked. Try to toggle them, compare results and comment back.
It'd be nice to have a test file of yours also. -

There is a third-party plugin, Rasterino from Astute Graphics, which allows to do exactly that.
Why Adobe never figured out their own way to complete the integration between their two oldest apps, in 30 years — I have no idea.
Shame!
