An error occurred while saving the comment I can confirm this (with Beta 29.5.0.15).
The attached file has a circle made into an asset.
If I try to export it with width 5858 px — I get a PNG written.
If I try to make it 5959 px — I never get anything at all but the error message.Once I close it and try again — I don’t get any message at all, until I reopen the file.

An error occurred while saving the comment Robyn, now Ai has a real Help Bar, but you probably meant something else then. Does it work now?

An error occurred while saving the comment There are certain ways to remove unnecessary groups with only one objects in them, nut none of these are native.
One is a script: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/how-to-remove-redundant-groups-via-script/td-p/2548597
The other one is VectorFirstAid plugin: https://docs.astutegraphics.com/vectorfirstaid/vectorfirstaid-panelAn error occurred while saving the comment I see what happens here, Robin.
Take a look at the video attached.
Study the file yourself, with both Layers and Appearance panels opened.While these pants look very similar, the blue pair is different.
Grab the Group Selection tool (or Direct Selection, it doesn’t matter here), click both on their fills and locate both objects in Layers, using the dedicated button.
Notice each path is wrapped into a group (this is fine, but I hope you have a reason to).
Then, notice the circle marker for the blue pants group is not hollow — this means the group has a custom appearance applied.
Indeed, the Appearance panel shows it has a black stroke above the group’s contents... and a blue fill under the contents! And the contents — is the actual path with the same exact fill.Now, when you click the right pants with the Group Selection, notice it’s the wrapper group gets the target on the circular marker, not the path inside. It means whatever appearance gets assigned manually or grabbed by the Eyedropper (if the settings tell it to — more on this later), it will be assigned to the group container — not the path.
Now pick the Eyedropper. Press Enter or double-click the tool’s icon to open the Eyedropper Options dialog.
I recommend to uncheck both Appearance options and never enable them until you get enough experience with the panel.
Now, make sure you target the actual path and not the group for the right pants (you can either click its appearance marker in Layers or double-click the Contents row in the Appearance panel to do this). When you click the black pants with the Eyedropper, the fill gets sampled properly — the fill, not the appearance, as the tool’s options now command.
So the blue pants are now black, but the group still have the 'custom' appearance, and its marker is full, not hollow. 'Custom' appearance can mean an effect applied, stroke and fill reordered, extra fill and stroke added — and this was the case for you. Target the group and click the Clear Appearance button to remove the extra stroke and the fill behind the contents of the group (it’s not visible anyway).So how did it happen?
Let’s see (not recorded on video).
Deselect everything and don’t undo the steps above.
Grab Group Selection and click the blue (now black) pants. As mentioned before, since the group has only ONE object in it, the group gets targeted — not the only path in it.
Pick Eyedropper, open its Options and check both Appearance options back. This is what I believe you had set for it, right?
And now, if you now click the pants on the left, the tool will sample the appearance from the PATH, but will apply it to the GROUP — since this what is targeted in Layers, and since it’s because these are your settings for the tool!So, again, this is very important to
1. Have groups only when you need them
2. Be dead sure on what’s targeted in Layers: targeting (circular marker) and selecting (square marker) are different states in Illustrator
3. Control your Eyedropper’s options and pick/apply appearance only when you control everythingHope it helps.
An error occurred while saving the comment Robin, if you still have the file (or have the same behavior again), would you mind isolating the top group it belongs to by removing other art (only for your privacy), and sharing the document here, for testing? I’d like to see if this is reproducible. Make sure it still happens with it. Thanks!
An error occurred while saving the comment Robin, can you please check how the Appearance panel looks for this object selected (when not isolated and when it is) and what options do you have picked for the Eyedropper tool (specifically two Appearance ones at the top of the dialog).
Does the behavior change if you uncheck these options? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Diego, Ai is used by many. And, just like evolution goes, newer methods rarely completely make older ones obsolete: people use Space bar, people use the actual Hand tool, wheel button, scrollbars — all at once. Just recently a bug report about scrollbars behaving as if inverted for a Wacom user got file, obviously they prefer this method over others...

An error occurred while saving the comment Odd! Let’s keep this open to see if anyone else notices this or it returns for you
An error occurred while saving the comment Andrii, what version are you using? This one doesn’t happen for me with both the latest GA and Beta versions (on Windows 10 though)
An error occurred while saving the comment Doesn’t happen to me when I try to reproduce it from scratch...
Does it happen for you with a new file? Can you please share the test file? -

An error occurred while saving the comment I don’t see it’s moving on its own here... what I see on the video is constant flickering, as if the Cmd/Ctrl key gets tapped extremely fast. Is this what you meant or am I missing something?
An error occurred while saving the comment Wow, I’d like to see this on video.
Nick, what method do you use to create a mask? The top menu command? Picking from the context menu? a hotkey?
Can you replicate this each time you try it from the scratch? Do you have other apps launched? Can you try to exit everything else to see if it gets influence by something else? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Please tell more about your OS, hardware, build version, etc.
Do you get the documents restored when you launch Ai after this? Do you get a crash reported dialog shown when it happens? do you send the report? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Melanie, the symbol between the number and the text that get inserted by the list is Tab — and these are controlled separately by the Tabs panel you can open and set one. When no tabs are set, Ai has to use a default value — and this is what happening for you, it seems. Take a look at the image. Hope it helps!
Please make it a separate entry next time, not a comment in other slightly related reports :)
An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment This probably happens because the assumed indent / tabulation position is exceeded with the two-digit list item... but instead of automatically adjusting the position of the first tab (like every other app with automated bullets does), it goes to the next default tab instead.
The gap between numbers/bullets and text is controlled be the Left / First Line Indent values, which can be changed in Options dialog — press little down arrow (it says 'See options') next to the Bullets or Numbered List buttons, then the three dots button ('More options').
These values behave like the normal indentation values you can edit in the Paragraph panel, and they are also not relative, but absolute. If you scale the text the way there is not enough space to fit a bullet or a number, it will jump to the doubled values, to the next tab position. Tabs are omitted in this method, and are controlled with the indentation itself.

An error occurred while saving the comment Łukasz, the default mode Image Trace uses id 'Black and White' and Ai uses threshold value to separate assign either black or white to different colors in your image. You can change the color mode of it and the threshold value in the dedicated panel you can open with Window > Image Trace.

An error occurred while saving the comment Does the same happen when you try it in Photoshop or InDesign?
If you check Preferences > Devices — do you have Enable Wacom there enabled? Does toggling it make any difference? -

An error occurred while saving the comment I confirm it. The issue happens only with GPU Preview mode, the flipped live text becomes aliased.
But please notice the position also slightly shifts when I toggle the preview mode! -

I confirm.
Images without clipping masks don’t get selected with a marquee with this option disabled.
The whole the clip group becomes selected with this enabled... I don’t think it’s OK.
Good finding!
