Questions

My plugin needs to create a temporary path by creating an Action for Adobe's Offset Path. That creates an extra "Offset Path" item in the Undo History that I don't want, and sAIUndo->SetSilent(true) doesn't work in this case. Is there a way to test if the last Undo entry was "Offset Path" and delete it if so?

Greetings, I tried multiple times and I could not save a file when I had a EPS linked. The result was a damaged Illustrator file. It did not matter if I was opening a existing 29.2 file or starting a new file, the result was a coreupted file.I tried using other EPS links to make sure the linked file was not the cause, each attempt failed. I had to revert back to 29.2.1 to continue working. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Thank you.

Love the feature that you finally can rotate the view in Illustrator. However – after rotating the view, for example 90 degrees, the arrow keys are not adjusted to fit this particular view. When I hit the up arrow key, things move to the right instead and so on. Same with ruler guides, try to make a horizontal guide and it makes a vertical one. The arrow keys thing is the worst though. Am I the only one thinking this is hopeless? When rotating the view in Indesign this is not a problem.

I was working on an important project in Adobe Illustrator, and suddenly the software stopped responding. Unfortunately, I had not saved my work before this happened. 😞Can anyone guide me on: How to recover an unsaved Illustrator file?

good morning,I need clarification regarding the resolution of images in a file saved as PDF/X-4:2010I noticed that the resolution of an image present inside the illustrator document is heavily reduced when I choose downsampling, this happens despite the image resolution not reaching the downsampling value. these are the setting:FILENAMESOURCE IMG PIXEL SIZESOURCE IMG DIMENSIONSPDF SETTINGACROBAT INSPECTOR SIZEACROBAT INSPECTOR RESOLUTIONtest risoluzione - 01.pdf24217 x 118116151,12 x 2999,99 @100ppiPDF/X-4:2010 - DOWNSAMPLING 300ppi if image res > 450ppi7266 x 3544 pixel (61511x30000 mm)118 pixel/mmtest risoluzione - 02.pdf24218 x 118116151,12 x 2999,99 @100ppiPDF/X-4:2010 - NO DOWNSAMPLING24217x11811 pixel (61511x30000 mm)393 pixel/mm in both cases the starting image is the same these are the questions:- why does downsampling occur even though the image resolution is less than 300ppi?- why is the image resolution changed even though the image is not modified in any w

A quase um mês a ferramenta mover não vem realizando o trabalho de mover, ela se comporta como a ferramenta seleção direta, a unica solução duas semanas atras foi desinstalar e instalar novamente o ilustrator, porem essa semana novamente axonteceu, realizei a desinstalação, funcionou mas ontem voltou o problema, já nao sei oque fazer, alguem ?

after esporting images in 300ppi JPG and working with it in the 3rd app for email campaign images turn out very blurry. On teh other hand same preferrences and images last year were sharp clear. Have no idea what has happened and what might cause such an issue. 

I'm looking and looking for a solution to have variable printing ignore a blank cell in my file.  I've tried adding a space into the cell, as well as every combination of " ", ' ', " [space] –– no luck.  I am now reading that you shouldn't have blank cells but is there truly no workaround? To create the csv I'm working in Google Sheets if that matters – I've also edited the file using text editor so I don't believe it should.

Hi everyone, I'm having trouble saving my artboards as separate ai files. I watched a tutorial on it but when I tried it myself, my Save As window grays out the "Use Artboards" checkbox. It only ungrays for eps or svg files. Has anyone else ran into this problem? Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!

Illustrator v 29.2. When using the direct selection tool, if I hold down the option and shift key to select other objects I get pink lines popping up all over the screen showing the distance between neighbouring objects. I find them a distraction only and of little value, how do I swith them off?

Hi,I have a set of swatches that I use in my illustrations in Illustrator. Now I'm experiencing an issue where all swatches seem to be applied with a degree of transparency. All palettes look correct, showing 100%. No layer mode is activated. What could have happened here? I have also tried toggling "Knockout Group" on and off.I hope someone has a good suggestion for this! 

I'm saving all my graphics in PNG and it's transparent but when Uploaded on the web it shows a white or greyish background of the artboard, I can't figure out why.

I am working in illustrator 29.3 when it suddenly stops allowing me to select any elements and presents the 'hand' icon which grabs and moves entire image around artboard. I have had to shutdown and restart my mac a number of times to get back into edit mode - I'm hoping someone might have a fix - very frustrating

I didn't see any documentation about that

Each time I use the eyedropper tool to copy a gradient, say from one circle to another, it works however it doesn't copy the gradient's position/scale/etc - instead it makes all the colors fit into the shape - how do I copy the entirety of the gradient?

Hello, I have created several documents in illustrator, with several art boards and several different items on each art board.When I export these as a PDF to be able to send across on email or to print out, some of the artwork from each art board is missing. Yet when I open the AI document in illustrator, all of the elements are there.I've never experienced this before where exporting as PDF from illustrator.I am using illustrator 2020 & the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! Many thanks.

After updating to 29.2.1 it's super fast to export to jpeg, but now it exports my patterns with lines and spaces (patterns seams amd sometimes random lines) that weren't there before. I think the update broke something 😞 Pictures show same .ai file exported to jpg before and after 29.2.1. (same settings) Same pattern, different colors - different lines appeared  If I export to png is fine, but I'd like to be able to export directly to jpeg without any problems like I used to (it needs to be jpeg - I deal with customers that are not very "technology friendly"). Is anyone having the same problem? I've searched everywhere and I couldn't find anything about it - just stuff about the anti-aliasing being a problem after the update, which is under investigation. Thank you

Hey, for the past few days Illustrator has been working terribly slowly, it takes a long time to open, I have to wait for the "hand" to appear to move the document, etc. Copying files to PS also takes longer :-{
