Question

Blurry/glitchy previews of vector artworks when zooming in and out

Hi all,

I've been experiencing this issue for a little while now (through multiple updates) and it has persisted even though I uninstalled/re-installed Illustrator on my computer.

Essentially the vector artwork previews on large files will get really blurry or leave artifacts all over the canvas when zooming in & out. The issue can be seen in the attached images, with the outline view of the artwork showing as normal compared to the messed up previews.

 

Thanks for any help!

Hello @Nancy__,

Sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind sharing some more details, like the exact version of the OS/Illustrator, system config (CPU/GPU/Memory), and a sample file (https://adobe.ly/47Aop5b), so we can investigate this further?


Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav

Hi Anubhav,

I'm in MacOS Sonoma 14.2.1 with 8gb memory, running Illustrator version 28.1. Here is a sample file, although I don't think it's a file issue because the same files don't always have this issue.

8 GB of memory is not a lot.
