Illustrator version: 28.7.1 but it happened also in previous versions

Im having issue for a while when i try to select a color stop in a gradient and trying to get the popup to show for changing a color. I work with a tablet and i guess due to the very small movement when performing a double click. Lots of times the color stop moves when i try to do a selection on the color stop.I tried ny possible shortcut, perhaps one would prevent this behavior. Does any one know a trick. perhaps change double click settings in Wacom setting i guess Even when using a really large panel. There seems to be very very minimal movement as i perform a double click. Because when i check if the gradient is still the same using Select > Same Fill Color. The object on the left is the only on select, even when it was duplicated from the right rechtangle. 

I'm not even sure of the correct terminology here so I haven't been having much luck searching google or the forums. This is what I'm after:I have a list of color names and their accompanying cmyk values on my computerI want to create a swatch library that I can open in Illustrator and that will display the color name when I hover over each swatchI want to do this without entering individually each name and value inside Illustrator I have a list with entries that look like this:Corinthian Pink0, 35, 15, 0 Is there some tool that can convert such a list (or let me quickly copy and paste)?  

Não estou conseguindo baixar o aplicativo pelo site da Adobe, que acusa uma atualização necessária pois meu SO supostamente estaria desatualizado. Porém ao verificar os requisitos para a instalação do Illustrator e as especificações do meu sistema, percebi que já estou utilizando a última versão do W10.

Hello,For some reason i'm having issues copying excel box and whisker diagrams into illustrator, despite the fact i've done it in the past without issue. I try to copy and paste the graphs, clipping mask - release mask (Alt - Ctrl - 7) (which works still with scatter graphs) but it does not work. It seems for some reason the box and whisker graphs now paste as images and not graphs, however i don't know how to change this. Any help is appreciated, Thanks, Theo.

Hi, I'm creating digital artwork and would like to print it, but I have no experience with color modules (like Fogra, how to export it in the right way.) Is there any way to learn how to do this? For example, to understand that a certain color will look off in print?Any help is appreciatedd 

I'm trying to open PNG filed directly through illustrator by rightclicking the png file and opening them on illustrator, but I keep getting the "unknown error occured (PARM)." Plus when I just open an empty illustrator file and try to drag png files on there they don't show up. Only a blank "frame" (with the control points at the corners, nothing else) shows up without the contents.How do I fix this? 

I use illustrator 5 days a week for work. Today, when using the pen tool the 1 pt like looks like a 5pt line.  I had to adjust my line weight to be .16 for it to look normal. Also, it kep resetting? I would change the line weight as sell as the function  to .5 to make ruffle lines on a skirt with the ends that are thinner.  Every time I clicked enter to finish a line, when dropped a new anchor point the pen line weight would reset to 1 (which looked like 5) and would remove the functions.  It prevented me from getting my work done 

What is the best way to save/export vector illustrator files so they don't look pixelated on screen?For example, company logo for email signature. HELP!  

Hello, I have a problem with the font "Geologica".The design of the letter "a" is displayed correctly in InDesign but in Illustrator the same font displays the same letter differently. I've checked multiple softwares, and in Ms Word the font also is displayed incorrectly. I've attached an image so you can see the problem. Has this happened with any of you? Do you know what the problem is?This is weird because it's my company's brand font and something is not right with it. thank you in advance.  

HiI am experiencing very slow performance and time lags when using the latest version of Illustrator CC. Hopefully, someone has encountered similar issues? Allow me to explain...The main part of my work involves working with CAD files supplied by architects in PDF format (previously used DWGs, but latest Illustrator no longer recognises these).  Once opened in Illustrator, I use them as templates to draw stylised versions of apartments for inclusion in sales and promotional items.I usually open the architect's PDFs in Illustrator and edit them; deleting unneeded information to make them as simple as possible. I've worked with PDFs in this manner for years, and until now I haven't experienced anything like the delayed performance of Illustrator CC 2020. It is excruciating and makes it virtually impossible to work with this software.The only thing I can suggest is that it may be something to do with the content of the original CADs, which, when saved as PDFs creates an artefact, or

Typically when I am given PDF or AI layouts they need to be broken apart into appropriate layers within Illustrator so that they will import as seperate objects when imported into After Effects. Ran into an interesting problem today and though I'd post the solution in case it can help anyone else. I was given an Adobe XD file today as a source of artwork to animate in After Effects.  I opened the file in XD then exported to PDF.  I then opened the PDF in Illustrator and all the elements were there; vectors, text as vectors and images.  Usually I 'Unembed' the images from the PDF using the 'Links' panel and save them as PSD files.  This method gets the best rendering in AE and to also gets the full image in cases where and image hangs off the artboard or is masked.  The problem came up when the image files didn't show in the 'Links' panel.  The images were exported from XD as patterns in the PDF. I then figured out the following method to un-embed

Hello,I try to export my artboard in which I changed the color of it, but it turns out that when I try to export it to PNG or JPG, it turns to white: ¿Any idea why it happens and how I can fix it?

Bonjour,Depuis ce matin Illustrator et Photoshop (dernières versions disponibles) ne veulent plus zoomer et dézoomer quand j'appuie sur "Z" + clic souris vers la gauche pour dézoomer et clic vers la droite pour zoomer.A la place je ne peux que zoomer selon une sélection que je dois définir.... Et pour dézoomer il faut maintenir ALT.Comment revenir à mon ancien zoom svp ?Je vous remercie par avance.(J'ai essayé d'aller dans Préférences>Performances et d'activer le zoom dynamique mais il est grisé.J'ai également réinitialisé les préférences.)Cordialement.

For context, I have a personal adobe cloud account, with illustrator and photoshop installed. Now that I am in university and they have adobe clouds accounts for us, I cancelled my personal subscription and I can still access it until 14 september. The thing is that I want to sync the illustrator and photoshop files that I have in my personal account to this school account. How do I do so? It's really frustrating because when I log in to my university account, this is what it shows.Idk how to access illustrator and photoshop from this university account. I have tried clicking on view all apps and sevices > access your apps and services but all it does is bring me back to illustrator and photoshop on my personal account. All it does is bring me back to what is clearly my personal account. As you can see, the profile picture is different.  I am really at a loss of what to do and 14 september, the date that I lose access to my adobe cloud documents, is fast approach

Hello, I recently updated my Illustrator the the most recent version (24.2.1) and my tools are missing. I was able to reclaim the tools from the windows pannel but all of the options from the right side of the screen were still missing. Typicaly I would reset my workspace to "essentials classic" or "essentials" but I am currently stuck on my preset workspace and am unable to switch out of it. A potential solution is installing a previous version to fix this issue, which has worked in the past for me. The intention with this post to to seek a potential solution and to notify the proper parties regarding this issue. Hopefully this will be fixed in the next update. Thanks!  

I haven't used Illustrator in a while, but I think I know it fairly well.When I create 2 objects and I try to move one in relation to the other, I can nudge with the keyboard but only in specific increments. It makes no differend if I hold down 'shift' or not, the nudging is the same. When I use the mouse to drag the object it will only drag in steps, there is no way to do a tiny movement. When I change the keyboard increments in the 'general' settings it makes no differene.  I know this used to work fine, so what has changed?

I see people have the opposite problem - they WANT the art to re-scale when they re-size the artboard. I do not. Since the latest updates for both Photoshop and Illustrator, now when I change the artboard or textbox size or shape (in both programs!), the art or text inside automatically resizes (read: distorts horribly!). The workaround I found is to LOCK my art and text layers before resizing the artboard. REALLY? REALLY, ADOBE? WHY is this happening? More importantly how can I STOP it from happening and set it to behave like Illustator and Photoshop versions of LAST MONTH? I have looked for options in Preferences, and see nothing makes sense or clearly controls this annoyance. Please help.
