An error occurred while saving the comment Taylor, sorry, but there is not much can be told by looking at these screenshots only. The better way would be to share the file, the meaningful piece of it, for the team to look at the structure and the appearance stack you have there. Can you please share it here, or send it over sharewithai@adobe.com, if you don’t want to make it public. If you prefer email, please add the link to this report — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/45259318

An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah, I can relate, easily.
The sad thing about this issue is that even scripts can’t solve that — there is no API. I hope yet, but we need to bring awareness to this. Unfortunately, there are many Creative Artists, but only a few tech designers who have to deal with tasks like this.
Thanks for bringing this up.An error occurred while saving the comment While I am 100% agree on that, and I hate Ai decided to rob us from all the palette of tools we could have been using with these gradient points — if the were triangular mesh control points — I can't but also notice that this is the most unexpected way to get a feather in Illustrator I've seen! Wow!
Why did you decide to do it like that? I am so sorry for the time you waste on editing this :(

An error occurred while saving the comment Does it happen in any document?
Does restarting the app helps?
Have you tried Smart Guides without Snap to Grid and vice versa? Do the Smart Guides get displayed at all?Can you please record that?
Please include showing the snaps in View menu. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Brandon, I checked several previous version, until version 10.
What you claim to be an expected behavior (although I agree I'd love to have it as an option) — is not there.
If the segment of a clipped path gets intersected with a marquee with a Direct Selection — it gets selected, and moving it will result in a handle extension. I believe it was always like this. So can you please tell more about it. Which version do you refer to?There is, however, two things I can tell for sure.
First, Lasso (today we have only one of two we had before, Direct Lasso) select only points and ignore segments. If you do the the selection with it, you'd get only points.
Second, it is a known problem to the community, and there’s a script 'Select Only Points' which analyzes the selection and leaves only point, exactly for solving this problem. The script is written by Sergey Osokin, is free, and can be downloaded here: https://github.com/creold/illustrator-scripts/blob/master/md/Select.md#selectonlypoints
It's not a perfect solution, but this is all we have now.
Thanks for the request and sorry for the long response. -

An error occurred while saving the comment This is most definitely happens because of specific color profiles linked or missing for the image and the color settings Ai on iPad uses.
Can you please share this image, here, or via sharewithai@adobe.com — if you do, please also add the link to this report (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/931885/suggestions/45249349)

Illustrator 2026 allows use to choose if we want Smart Guides to be limited to the currently active artboard.
We can toggle the behavior in Preferences > Smart Guides section, in Limit Snapping block, with the new Snap Within: Active Artboard.
Please try to use it and comment back to tell if it behaves as you expect it to. Any feedback is really appreciated and would help to shape it further.

The latest Beta now has a dedicated option for this in Preferences > Smart Guides section, in Limit Snapping area. We can now choose if we want to Snap to Isolated Objects ('...only, when isolated' — the name is not clear at the moment).
This is a WIP feature, and the team desperately needs your feedback on it. Please test it and comment if it works as expected (or not).

An error occurred while saving the comment I love this idea.
When working with a complex illustration, the usefulness of smart guides gets reduced to nil because of the sporadic seemingly random snapping to anything except for the point of focus. There is no proximity snapping in Illustrator it seems like (and there was a request about that, I guess...) — so yeah, we need to tame smart guides.Affinity Designer tries to solve this with its 'Snapping candidates':

Not an ideal solution, Ai should do better.In Illustrator, we have these two requests:

An error occurred while saving the comment How do you expect it to work, when your project is located in one folder and all its assets and imaged that are linked are scattered across the entire disk or even network? Illustrator have no idea that the folder you copy has all the links and that it should relink the files. The document stores paths inside, and no external changes with files linked to you can’t change these paths without an action from a user. All Ai can do is to check the paths and see if the files are there.

An error occurred while saving the comment Jan, I’m afraid you have to explain more.
Illustrator has the Width tool which allows exactly that. What do you want exactly? Can you illustrate it or describe it further?An error occurred while saving the comment Jan, I’m afraid you have to explain more.

An error occurred while saving the comment Kristen, hi! Welcome to UV.
To understand what is happening, you have to open Appearance panel and study the Layers panel.The 'Arrows' layer obviously has strokes inside, but then another stroke applied to the level itself, covering all its children. You can see it Layers — the top layer has the ring target marker filled, which indicates it has a specific appearance applied, and so does the every separate arrow the group has.
However, you don’t have the layer selected, but one object, the circle — so you see its reddish stroke color, and not the gray one the layer has.
Click the ring target to focus it, open Appearance, and click Remove Appearance button.Assigning appearance to a layer is a powerful technique, but it's easy enough to mess things app, if you accidentally misclick and target a layer instead of just selecting it.
Please comment back if it helps.

There seem to be a fix implemented, and this behaviour is presumably gone.
If you ever encounter anything like this again — please comment back.
An error occurred while saving the comment Good riddance then. Thanks for posting it here and good luck from now on. Let's hope anything like this won't happen again.
An error occurred while saving the comment Jon, do you still have this weird behaviour?
It seems that all of example SVGs are missing from the report. UserVoice obviously has some troubles with attaching them.
Can you please collect them all and send over sharewithai@adobe.com? Please also provide the link to this report for the team to track it: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/45252568
