An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment Janno, is the text live within this envelope?
Live text has a size limit (and there is a request to remove or increase it: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31773148)
When the text hits this limit, it won’t go any larger, even within the envelope.But there is a simple workaround for this.
Release your envelope.
Select text.
Go to Effect > Path > Outline Object.
This will force Ai to treat any alive object this effect is applied to as an outline. This will remove the hinting live text uses, but since you distort a text anyway, it matters nothing.
The warp this treated text again — it should no longer be squished like you see it.Please comment back if the method helped and please upvote the request to raise the limit.

An error occurred while saving the comment Strange... these work for me.
I can call New from Template with no files opened (and I disabled Home Screen as well), with Ctrl+Shift+N (I am on Windows).
Nick, can you make a test, please? Reassign it to some other hotkey and see if any other combination works for the commands, or is it only Cmd+Shift+N is flawed?
What about other hotkeys, like Cmd+O, or Cmd+N? Does it change if you disable Home Screen? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Jochelle, do you mean a new file created with the predefined structure, or a preset you can 'apply' to any opened document?
The first is already possible — save a document with the content, layout, presets, layers, and setup you need, and save it as an .ait template — next time when you launch this file. a new unnamed document based on it will be created.
If you mean the latter — well, an action can be used... but it won’t support predefined names and won’t allow to freely create a complex structure. In this case, custom made scripts can be used — I certainly recall Von Glitschka were having one, written for him.
I personally prefer to use .ait templates. The only problem can be a fixed layout, but it depends on your workflow.What do actually need?

GPU mode Ai uses by default is fast, but can be imprecise at high zoom levels. To see the art the way it’s drawn, with no precision rounding artifacts, toggle it to CPU mode instead.
An error occurred while saving the comment I see not what you mean with rulers and setting origin inside of a symbol, while editing it. Somehow I missed this part, assuming it’s a normal art, not an edited symbol. Instead of moving the origin in this mode, you should move the art itself. You don’t have to eyeball it, using Transform panel to adjust the position of the selected contents. Still have no idea what your workflow is, but I hope you were able to figure it out.
Good luck and thanks for coming at UserVoice with this.
I am closing this one, with comments opened.An error occurred while saving the comment Jim, I don’t think it’s a brush at all.
Even though it looks like it’s a brush applied, I think it’s just the way it gets rendered due to the precision limit, with some points collapsed. Treat is as a 'quantum effect'. Remember, the current way AI today renders graphics is with GPU — it’s fast, but it cut corners when compute things. Try to toggle the rendering mode to CPU and compare the results.As for the origin point — I think you’d have to share the file and explain your steps, so that me and the team can reproduce the problem.
AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) supported this idea ·An error occurred while saving the comment The stroke offset at the highest zoom level is a known problem. We are reaching the level of maximum precision, and some rounding happens.
I’m seeing the same problem, but less pronounced.
But I can’t reproduce the problem with dragging an origin point from the rulers’ intersections.

An error occurred while saving the comment Stephen, as long as you linked this report (http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/48970181) — it should be easy enough for the team to track it back. Even without it, it will help.
An error occurred while saving the comment Stephen, did you send the files as requested to the email this dialog wants you to send the files, to sharewithai@adobe.com?
Was it sent from the address starting with 'sho', the same one you use here at UserVoice? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Austin, I made many attempts to replicate it, watched video frame by frame, but failed to make it happen :(
All I can do for now is to ask questions:
1. Does it differ if you place a new point further away from the previous one and its handles?
2. Does it differ if you don’t pull out handles at all and instead just click, creating a polyline?
3. Does it differ if make pauses longer between click?
4. Are you sure you don’t have any services launched that can send 'Escape'?
5. Do you have any plugins installed? (these CAN influence native tools, trust me, I had many now solved cases with them)
6. Are you able to test Ai Beta (it’s available for all users in CCD app) and see if something similar happens there as well? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Not sure I get it, probably due the translation.
What are the 'Objetos em branco'? Just white objects?
How do they get overprinted?
Do you use manual overprinting for objects at all?Letyccia, can you please share a test file with the object that leads to problems like this, next to the one that makes it solved, and an example of the image exported?

The issue reported no longer happens in 29.0.1.
In case a similar problem happens with you, make sure you have both Snap to Grid and Snap to Pixel disabled.
An error occurred while saving the comment What about this option?
Should be disabled if you don’t work with pixels!An error occurred while saving the comment Franklin, can you please check if you have Snap to Grid enabled?
Does it change the behavior if you disable it? -

An error occurred while saving the comment I see the confusion.
This is not because the Appearance section in Properties panel works wrong, it’s just it’s rather basic — it shows you only the currently selected color for the current attribute.Live text is a collection of glyphs. Each one can get it’s own fill and stroke (but only colors, that is 'basic appearance' — we can’t add more fill to a single character, change the order of fill and stroke, add effects... there is a dedicated request to allow it: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/46545787)
To access characters directly, you can either select some or double-click the Characters row in the Appearance panel (the dedicated one).
Take a look at the GIF attached, and notice how the section in Properties reacts to what is selected and changed.But when you add a new fill in Appearance... you add a fill to the whole objects, above the Characters! They still have their own colors assigned, but the new fill covers them, drawn above. That’s why you get the duplicate when you Expand the text. This is normal, this is how it works, and it just needs to be learnt and utilized.
If you don’t need the colors below the object-level fill — remove individual colors from characters.Does it make any sense?

An error occurred while saving the comment Manuel, do you refer to the Eyedropper button in the Gradient panel?
In the screenshot it does not appear to be pressed. Perhaps you better record a small video on it, or elaborate? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Oh yes, this one.
Properties panel is completely broken for me and is blank in 95% of cases, so this command it missing for me.
And since there is no dedicated Object > Dimension menu (and it should exist, http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49010378), having it in Control makes it mandatory. Even if Properties worked and there was the menu group! -

The team again asks for help with this issue, since there are not specific steps they can try to reproduce it — the nature of the bug is random.
If you are a Windows user, the next time you spot a missing or a duplicated number in Artboards panel, please follow these instructions below.
1. Open Task Manager
2. In Details tab, locate 'Illustrator.exe'
3. Right click it and choose 'Create dump file'
4. Wait until the dumping process is complete and click 'Open file location' button
5. Find 'Illustrator.dmp' (sorting files by date helps) and compress it with any archiving utility
6. Upload the archive to a file hosting service of your choice and sent the link for download to sharewithai@adobe.com. Please use the subject 'Artboards numbering bug dump'
This will help provide necessary clues to locate the source of the problem. If you are a Mac user —…
An error occurred while saving the comment In my case I got the 8th one duplicated three times in a row, using the latest Beta.
Others never happened for me, so it’s random.
@onenower, were you able to reproduce it using the steps from below?An error occurred while saving the comment After 6 years of pain I was able to find steps to get this bug happen.
Please take a look at the GIF and try these steps:
1. Open a new doc
2. Create a rectangle
3. Use Object > Artboards > Convert to Artboards
4. Undo — notice there is no rectangle left, even though it makes sense to have it back. Ai shows the step for it though!
Create another rectangle and convert it to artboard again (I use a hotkey now) — notice how the name is now 'Artboard 4' (not 'Artboard 2', how it should be — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/36673057, — and not even 'Artboard 3', but 4!)
5. Undo again
6. Now create a third rectangle and convert it, and then the fourth rectangle and convert it too — notice the numbers are 1, 2, 4 (!!!), and the names are 1, 5, 5!I. Hate. This. Bug.
It costed me a month salary once.
Made the team aware.An error occurred while saving the comment Please don't mind this user with the hateful speech below. I think we all share this pain because of this problem, and understand the rage it often invokes. Comments like this are not pretty, but they are good signals. But please restrain yourself from calling people 'losers'.
AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) supported this idea ·An error occurred while saving the comment @Amber, sadly, these steps do nothing for me, and their variations too. No skips, no duplicates... You are lucky to be able to keep Ai live for 5 days, without a crash :) But yes, I confirm that it never happens if it was launched recently, and always happens in the heat of an action, with Ai being launched for a while, with a lot of tabs.
Why it often happens at the eights artboard though...
Thanks for the comment, the searches continue.An error occurred while saving the comment Stefania, a cool observation! Definitely a bug... I just think it night be a different bug. I suppose it should be reported separately. Can you do that, please?

This bug makes me loose money.
I've sent you an email through 'other support channels'.An error occurred while saving the comment I got the same bug today.
I have made two new artboards, one has got number 46 (OK) and next happen to be 48 (47 is missing). If I try export range 46-48, AICC2018 says it's invalid. 46-47 is OK.
Bug stays after reopening file.

Can you please try to reproduce it in a brand new file, based on a specific document profile, like Print or Web?
If you can provide a short video with the exact step, it’d help the team to investigate this.
Thank you!
Oh, so it’s not a text.
Can you share a copy of this file, with this only envelope in it, to test it, please?
