An error occurred while saving the comment Using scripts is inconvenient because apparently they're not taken to be a serious component of Illustrator. If they were more obvious, and easier to find, and more creatively documented, a lot more people would use them, and Ai would become even more indispensable to users.
An error occurred while saving the comment For heaven's sake, Adobe! You have made using scripts SO INCONVENIENT that hardly anybody even knows all the amazing things that are possible. If you gauge "interest" on the basis of usage stats, then this obscure features will self-destruct through lack of use. SCRIPTS are not an obscure feature. Innumerable professionals use them, and we have to go through a MINIMALIST menu item just to locate them. By name only? There should be a panel of all installed scripts. Installation should be easy. Finding them should be easy. They should be immune to app updates (I just had to COPY all my scripts after updating to Ai 2023).

An error occurred while saving the comment This is a surprising weakness in Ai, which relies on scripts from power-users to provide users with features they can't get from Adobe.
If you're not going to provide a PANEL for scripts, at least let us install a new script without having to close all working files and exit the application! That's ridiculous. Just provide a menu entry to REFRESH the scripts menu item.
Better yet, provide a decent PANEL for scripts. Every other scriptable application in the world does that.

An error occurred while saving the comment Perhaps expand this to a configurable SWAP command: swap fills, swap paths, swap colors, swap scaling, swap layer positions, swap horizontal positions, swap vertical positions, etc. This would come in handy in a lot of scenarios.

How to stop .tmp$$$ when export .png File from Avast Anti-virus
The cause of this annoying problem came from the ransomware shield function from Avast. This is an easy method to solve this problem.
1. Go to Avast Antivirus user interface.
2. Select the protection tab.
3. Select ransomware shied.
4. Protected folder by Avast Ransomware shield will appear.
5. Click the checkbox of the protected file location that you choose to export which shown for protection.(C:\USER\...\Pictures etc.)
6. When you select, the message of the selected folder and "Stop Protection" button will appear.
7. Click stop protection.after this procedure, you can export .png file or else and preview it as you please. Please try...
An error occurred while saving the comment @Ankit - I downgraded to 24.1.3. I'll let you know if the problem resurfaces on this older version.

An error occurred while saving the comment @Ankit - FYI, my file and folder names have no double-byte chars. And I already have Accelerated Saving and Background Saving turned off. The most persistent and identifiable symptom is that AI gets into a mode where it never releases a file, even after saving and closing it. As long as AI is open, even with no file tabs, files that were edited during this session are still locked.
The problem may be made worse when background processes are attempting to copy edited files to a backup drive, but I don't see how this would cause problems (it never has before, with any apps).
Let me know if I can provide further testing. I believe you have my email.

An error occurred while saving the comment Still happening after turning off fast open/save, and background saving.
Files are still "open" in AI after tab is closed. Can't rename a file or delete it until I close AI.
Allen
An error occurred while saving the comment While laboriously recovering the TMP files, I've found that AI never lets go of a file, even after it's been saved and the tab has been closed.
This means that a second edit of any file will be impossible to save, because the file is still "open" -- even though it's AI that has it open.
I just repaired about 15 files, and they are all closed by AI, but they are all still R/O due to being open in "another process." They only get released when the AI session is closed.
This is probably what's causing all the TMP files, which has cost me a full day of very difficult editing of complex scientific charts.
Please address this ASAP! The required procedure for working around this bug is time consuming and inherently confusing, since each new edit has to be saved under a new name, and I'm working with a set of 52 files!
Thanks,
Allen
An error occurred while saving the comment Same here, 24.2, win10/64.
HUGE problem with 24.2 - Appears to save, but just creates a TMP file and DOES NOT SAVE. This starts happening randomly after working on several files.
I just discovered that 7 hours of high productivity on 52 files went unsaved. I now have 52 TMP files.
This needs immediate attention!

Can the TMP files be recovered? Or are they just working storage?
Windows 10, 64bit. Plenty of hw resources.

Adobe. Make It an Experience.An error occurred while saving the comment @Ashutosh -- This is a much better way of handling default export destinations. I can't think of a better way of doing it (but there are always other workflows).
Thanks!

You can align to an object you choose to be the key one.. Click the object you want to use as a key the second time and Ai will use a bolder edge to highlight it.
More details here:

An error occurred while saving the comment After selecting the objects you want aligned, click AGAIN on the object you want them aligned TO. This key object will now hold its position, and the others will move relative to it.

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for this feedback. This has been avialble since June 2020 release (version 24.2). Now, when you’ll select a single object/group, Align To setting will default to Align To Artboard.
Please update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html
Thank you for all the feedback.
Thanks,
Varun

There are so many ways my space mouse would help in Ai, it's a shame it's not natively supported. The product has been around a long time now, so it's worth the investment by Adobe.
