An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment George, I agree with you on these.
However, since the tool is now released, we better stick to separate requests, to get proper statistics on what to improve with Intertwine.Please take a look at these new requests and vote for those you find worth it:

One of them is exactly about the thing you write about.
Feel free to add your own!An error occurred while saving the comment Yes, I confirm Richard’s test, a Repeat out of a simple Intertwine object first leads to 'Can’t preview' issues and then to a crash. The crash report is sent.
An error occurred while saving the comment What happens if I change or even move the art?
If I modify the ribbon shape and it stops fitting in the designated area? -

An error occurred while saving the comment It does it only if the Canvas Color is set to Match Brightness in Preferences > User Interface... well, I mean changing it from white to white is not a problem with this.
But what do you expect? Should artboards become gray as the canvas is? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Ah, I see.
To actually rename, we need to open the Swatches panel’s menu and locate Swatch Group Option command, with the only option. Hardly convenient and consistent with renaming a swatch.An error occurred while saving the comment Can’t replicate :( Just won’t happen for me, does not matter if the color group has global colors in it or not.
Can you reproduce it a brand new file with default swatches?An error occurred while saving the comment Sorry, I can’t understand how do you rename a swatch group using the Color Guide panel. The panel just does not provide this function, as far as I know. It is possible to Save Color Group first, and then open the Recolor Artwork dialog, and rename from there, but it works fine, no duplication happens for me.
Can you please record a short video to demonstrate the exact steps you perform?

An error occurred while saving the comment What’s a point in having an access to a cloud if it can’t be used to backup and restore my settings...
Guess who solved this problem recently? Astute Graphics, with their https://astutemanager.com
Only actions require loading them manually (well, it’s how Ai is coded, it seems), but everything else just appears instantly when installed via the manager.An error occurred while saving the comment Dreamweaver is a great example of how an Adobe app can and should manage this: https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/dreamweaver/using/synchronizing-dreamweaver-settings-creative-cloud.html
Keeps settings as XML files.
Has a dedicated section in Preferences.
Offers to pick data to be synced.
Supports automated and manual modes.
Manages sync conflicts.
Not ideal — but it cares.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Pierre, what version of Ai are you using?
Can you share the file with the team, along with the images of the expected look of it?
In Preferences, do you have 'Save in Background' option enabled in File Handling section? Does the behavior differ if you disable it? -

An error occurred while saving the comment This mechanism is a black box for most of us, yes,
Dave, do you have problems using the very same prompt at the Firefly site?An error occurred while saving the comment Amazingly, the UserVoice’s automatic profanity filter found something wrong with both words used in the comment you left.
So it is something odd with these two. I can’t even tell what these were, but this basically answers your question — these words ARE perceived by some filters as inappropriate. Use synonyms then.An error occurred while saving the comment ...so what was the prompt, Patricia?
An error occurred while saving the comment I think when 'one or more words' violate the guidelines, Illustrator should clearly inform us what words these are exactly.
I guess this can be used for a bad cause, like to gather the database of restricted words... but I don’t understand why normal users should suffer because of this.An error occurred while saving the comment Interesting. It’s hardly about confusion... I have some ideas on what can trigger the warning in a prompt like this, but I’d use 'conquer and divide' method to try to figure out what does: remove one half of a prompt and see if it goes. If the problem stays — remove one more half, but if it goes away — the offending word is probably in this removed part.
In any way, I’d start with a shorter prompt in the first place, adding more clarification incrementally, to see if matters.An error occurred while saving the comment Perhaps the word «boucherie» in this particular prompt is something the model rejects (the primary meanings are 'carnage, slaughter, bloodletting, massacre, destruction, annihilation, extermination, holocaust, bloodbath').
I am told Using the prompt in English ‘Black and white butcher shop logo’ works.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Whenever I enable any Pressure option for any of three parameters (even when the variation value is 0) for the Blob Brush tool, I notice the simplification seemingly doesn’t get applied to the result...
And I don’t use a tablet pen, just a mouse at the moment.
Can you confirm this?
However, it doesn’t explain the problem with the variable width profile and the pathfinder (I’d like to get a test file with the original shapes and then processed to see the difference).
Just in case — can you backup your Preferences, reset them, and compare the behaviors?An error occurred while saving the comment The second one is a stroke with the variable width profile 2 applied, correct? This is not all what I get when trying to expand it in Ai 2026 30.0... Same deal with using the Blob brush...
What are the same settings you used for both the Blob Brush strokes? Can you share a screenshot, please?
At some point Adobe inserted a hidden simplification treatment before expanding variable strokes... it resulted in a slower speed, killing off the paired anchors, general smudginess... I raised it up several times, but it was not addressed.
It seems like in your case this hidden simplification step just never happens. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Yep. Not only PNGs, but other formats as well.
Photoshop can estimate a JPEG’s size before we save it. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Paul, just recently Illustrator started to roll out the artboard background color feature, requested here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31386253
If you assign one for the artboard with your artwork, it should get baked into the thumbnail. Would it work for you?
I don’t think there could be a reliable model to make thumbnail differ from the content, only for white logos... I’d be worried why these differ :) -

Illustrator today allows to set this mode as a default behavior with the Select Objects only within Marquee option, in Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display.
An error occurred while saving the comment No, Ken, we can still trigger this mode on the fly by tapping E key once after the marquee is started. The cursor changes, displaying square brackets underneath. Tapping E the second time while dragging disables it back. But tapping E is required each time you make a marquee — unless this permanent option is enabled.
There are two things that bother me (OK, more):
1. Once the permanent option is enabled, E should work the other way — temporarily disable the Enclosed mode... doesn’t happen
2. In one of Beta builds there was a way to assign a different key to toggle the mode on the fly, and now it’s gone. So far it’s unclear whySmaller things:
3. The cursor shifts 1 px down+right when Enclosed mode becomes active (for me, at 100% UI+OS scale) — reported here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/939477/suggestions/48775478
4. The scope is broken with it, and it still requires Group Selection while isolated in a group — reported here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/50688266An error occurred while saving the comment @e.k. kuzey,
at the moment Ai doesn’t have a mechanism to set hotkeys for items in panel’s menu and dialogs.
It is planned, AFAIK. The main request about this is here — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31609237AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment To calculate the hit area of the text, Illustrator uses its 'em-box'.
It’s rectangular container that fits each glyph, including ascenders and descenders (that is tails and necks of various 'g' and 'f'), and all the capitals and digits.
This helps to not accidentally select stuff behind the text while accidentally clicking in the middle of something like 'O' or between letters.But the method has caveats.
For some fonts these are quite huge. Even when a glyph doesn’t have anything protruding (like 'a' or 's'), it still has a box like other ones.
The larger the text gets, the larger these blind spots become.So far there is not a solution to auto-shrink the hit area to each glyph’s bounds.
The workaround though exists: enable 'Type Object Selection by Path Only' in Preferences > Type.
Not the same thing at all, but a method still.
.png){kind=link}
Make Intertwine into a tool, available from a tool panel.
Objects on Path is a tool, and it creates a dedicated object... and does nothing else! all the operations with this new object are performed using the Selection tool...
Meanwhile, an Intertwine object would need a command, Object > Intertwine > Edit (or a button in the Control panel) to be edited — which just enabled the hidden tool! Make it a real one!
