Since updating to Adobe Illustrator version 29.5.1 (64-bit) on Windows 11, there is a critical bug in the Transparency panel’s opacity mask behavior:
When I select the object thumbnail inside the Transparency panel, Illustrator immediately switches the selection to the opacity mask thumbnail when I exit or deselect.
When I select the opacity mask thumbnail, Illustrator switches back to the object thumbnail after I exit the panel or click outside.
The selection keeps flipping back and forth automatically, making it nearly impossible to edit either the object or the mask.
This was not an issue in earlier Illustrator versions. In prior versions, Illustrator would maintain the selected object or mask until I manually changed it. This regression in 29.5.1 breaks normal opacity mask editing workflows.
Expected behavior:
Illustrator should maintain the user’s current thumbnail selection (object or mask) inside the Transparency panel, even after clicking outside or switching focus, until the user manually selects a different thumbnail.
Illustrator version: 29.5.1 (64-bit)
OS version: Windows 11
