SanjitAn error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment I just had this completely mess up a workflow today. Please bring back the old Simply tool and maybe implement a "legacy" option alongside the new tool? I work with NatGeo and use Illustrator to make maps. Oftentimes when vector data is brought in from a GIS program there are way too many anchor points in the lines. This is especially true with elevation contour lines. Previously, I would use the simplify and set it to 99%, which would remove enough points to keep the computer from bogging down but also retain the shape of the contour lines. Now with the new tool even using the "minimum" setting under "simplify curve" the shape of the contour lines changes way too much and this tool is essentially unusable now. For me, and the others who have commented here, this is a major issue and a removal of functionality! I don't see any other workaround other than to install an old version of Illustrator...and that is not a good workaround.

Still wishing you would bring back the old Simplify tool. I have to keep an old version of Illustrator on my machine, just for that task. That's not a good solution. Improvements have been made since the "new" tool was first released, but it still doesn't work as well as the old tool. In fact, it just crashed Illustrator on me. :(
