Images moving within clipping mask after save & re-open Illustrator v29.3.1 Tha mask itself stays in place but the image has moved upwards a significant amount within it. Not a bit, bit a lot. This has heppened on multiple pieces of work, both embedded images and linked. This doesnt seem to happen every time, but has been increasingly common.  OS Name Microsoft Windows 11 Home Version 10.0.26100 Build 26100 Other OS Description Not Available OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation System Name DESKTOP System Manufacturer Alienware System Model Alienware x17 R1 System Type x64-based PC System SKU 0A8F Processor 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-11800H @ 2.30GHz, 2304 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processor(s) BIOS Version/Date Alienware 1.25.0, 11/8/2024 SMBIOS Version 3.3 Embedded Controller Version 255.255 BIOS Mode UEFI BaseBoard Manufacturer Alienware BaseBoard Product Alienware x17 R1 BaseBoard Version A00 Platform Role Mobile Secure Boot State On PCR7 Configuration

Currently, I'm using the latest Illustrator version 29.3. When I installed this version, my GPU was working fine, but after restarting Illustrator, the GPU is no longer detected, showing that a compatible GPU is unavailable. I have tried many ways to fix this, but I can't solve it. But my latest Photoshop version still works well and recognizes the GPU.  MY OS: Windows 11 Latest Update CPU: i5 13500GPU: Intel Arc A750 8GB

Roughly how long would it take for you to reliably select all objects that are completely located inside of the light green marked paths in the screenshot below when you are just using any of the default selection tools in Illustrator?  

I have a design with many boxes that have points and edges intersecting, one on top of the other. I want to be able to box-select points and move them without selecting any lines.  If I try to click-select, I can't select two points that are stacked one on top of the other, and if I box-select, I get the edges/lines and can't move the points without moving the edges as well.  Is there any modifier key or anything to disable selecting of lines and be able to only select points? Here are images showing the two points selected to move, and what happens if they're moved up. The lines come along. It seems there must be a way. Thank you!

I've been using Adobe products since 1993 and have had different issues and troubleshot many for people, etc. My workstations are usually custom built PCs specifically built for Adobe (and my budget) since it is how I make my living.I've been super excited about how to incorporate AI into my workflows and have been using MidJourney as well as Photoshop's Generative Fill to do many tasks, but Illustrator is my heavy-use tool for 99.9% of everything done for design or illustration. I've seen some of the Generative Fills and work done in Illustrator (and some of the new features coming) and it just feels important to have the option to be able to use it. EVERY time I try it in Illustrator it totally freezes up my computer EVERY time. Again, Photoshop works fine with its AI and my computer is basically 3 years old witch a decent processor and graphics card. I've even had several updates through Adobe CC where it reset my preferences and still same result. I'm guessing it has something to d

I recently lost the ability to drag & drop png or jpg files into Illustrator (v28.3) from Photoshop (25.5.1). I can Place those same files but not drag & drop.  Any suggestions?

Hi there, I see weird lines around white objects that drive me crazy and I am wondering if this is a bug. Is anyone seeing similar things? I am working currently on updating a museum map. Various exhibition rooms have various colors. Walls are compound paths that are filled white. The white compound path sits on top of the filled-in rooms and hallways and stroke setting is transparent/0 width.The original plan is over 10 years old. Just last week, I was working on it and it looked like expected.The map is placed in an Indesign document. Today, I exported a PDF-X4 file for offset printing like I always do. When I checked the PDF, I noticed super thin hairlines around the white compound paths. First, I thouhgt it might be a display error. But when I check the color channels (Acrobat output preview), I can measure them. And when I render the PDF page in Photoshop, it does render these super thin lines.When I zoom in thouh in Acrobat, the lines do not seem to scale. Whatever

I wanna try ''generative ai'' but its not working as I expected. High demand ? i Bought it to try and not letting me do it huuhh ???! i tried to do this " lose Adobe Illustrator > Launch Command Prompt > Paste the following command and hit Enter set AI_ENABLE_LOGS=1 && "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 2024\Support Files\Contents\Windows\Illustrator.exe" but not working 

I'm using Illustrator 29.0.1. For some time, now, I've been losing pasted clipings in a template layer. I trace pasted artwork into line drawings and find that if I do certain things, the clipped artwork will become transparent. I've unccessfully been trying to find a pattern. I end up having to re-cut the artwork and re-paste it—I can't re-paste the original clipboard. I find it pretty frustrating. I've been using Illustrator since it's inception (decades ago) and think I'm pretty-well versed in using it; but, this one stumps me. Any help?

Hello, we recently came across a funny issue with the feature "Recolor Artwork" in Illustrator for PC.  When ever we want to use the eyedropper tool in the advanced options for each of the colors, it will not work. BUT it will work if I select a color that's behind the popup window?? Not sure how to explain clearly, but please see gifs below.the weird thing: it only lets me eyedrop if the popup window is on top of the thing I want to eyedrop from....(see below) I don't know if I'm using this wrong or not seeing something or if this is just a bug for PC. My colleagues who use Mac computers don't seem to have this issue, but PC users do.

I'm beginning an Illustrator CS4 training book that comes with lessons you install on your desktop. The lessons require you to use their files but you are instructed to choose and "Save As" so you will be able to work on them.Each time I attempt to "Save As" a warning message displays telling me I can't save the illustration because I don't have enough access privileges!!!Does anyone know how I can resolve this issue? After spending a lot of money on the program plus the book I should have all the privileges I want!!

I had a fresh install of Illustrator 29.3.1 on a fresh install of Windows 11 on a new PC. Almost immediately I began having issues when opening files. It doesn't matter where the files are saved- I have issues opening files form a network drive, issues opening local files, and issues when opening an Illustrator Template file.  When this happens, Illustrator will freeze, I will get a spinning cursor, and only task manager will kill it. So, I rolled back to the previous version 29.3. I'm still having the same issues. When I reopen Illustrator from the crash, I find that it will not open to my saved workspace and my custom Actions are deleted.  I can save files just fine, and once things are open, Illustrator works normally.  My PC specs are- HP Z4 Workstation with a Xeon 3.6GHz processorWindows 11 Pro for Workstations128GB RAM1TB SSD and a 3TB SSDNvidia Quadro P2000

Ich verwende Illustrator Version 27.8.1Seit kurzem kann ich Objekte allein durch berühren mit dem Auswahlwerkzeug selektieren. Möglicherweise habe ich irgendeine Tastenkombi gedrückt die mir nicht bewusst war. Ich möchte aber Objekte nur auswählen, wenn ich direkt darauf klicke und/oder ich sie mit der Auswahl vollständig umschließe.Ich habe mir diverse Infos angeschaut und auch die Voreinstellungen in Illustrator selbst durchforstet ohne fündig zu werden wie ich das einstellen kann.Hat jemand die rettende Idee wie ich das wieder rückgängig machen kann🤔 🤔

Hello,  Im having some error with one of mine typos (Roboto), there's some predetermined text and when i try to type a new one keep texting the same, It's only happening with regular weight:   If you can see the other typefaces have the right text box on right side.. only Roboto/regular is giving me this error.. How can i fix it? 

This is a recent issue I've found with Illustrator 29.3.1 on Mac Sequoia 15.3.1 with M1 chip. I have previously had no problems opening an SVG, doing a slight edit, then saving that SVG (command + S). Now I do that, but when I try to open the SVG again in Illustrator I get the errors "This SVG is Invalid. Validate it before opening.", then "The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error.    [STEX]". The SVG seems to be corrupted. I can't just export as SVG because Illustrator doesn't seem to preserve the opacity settings on my objects when exporting to SVG, and then if I try to update those in Illustrator then I run into the above issue again! I have made sure my Illustrator is up to date - it is frustrating because I have done this before on a previous Illustrator release without issue.

The "Apply to All" checkbox is missing.  This is a huge problem when relinking multiple images (sometimes hundreds in my case) automatically for imposition for large format printing.  This issue came up last year and it looks like it has reappeared with this latest version of Adobe Illustrator v28.5, released 4 days ago.  Adobe - please fix this bug as soon as you can.  All my templates are affected by this and instead of one global replacement, I now much click for every linked instance.  Not much of a problem when there's only one or two relinking clicks required, but when I need to click "Replace" over 100 times, this is a time killer.  Please see if you can fix this bug.  Thanks.

Couldn't find an answer to this, as my settings are already set to whatever answers were suggested in other posts.I'll describe in photos:Trying to align the anchor point point of the middle red object with the light blue in the back:Tapping the up arrow a single time to nodge it up, but its giving me this:My setting are as followd: (all snapping is turned off) And also this icon in the top bar is not activated: For some reason the left object did agree to align exactly with the blue.

I've tried uninstalling, making sure the apps are up to date. I've tried copy and pasting in but nothing will work. This has been working fine up until recently and nothing seems to fix it. When I drag in a layer I get the usual green button with a plus sign but nothing shows up. Please can you help? This is really slowing everything down as I work on very quick concepts and dont have time to keep saving down files and re-opening in illustrator.
