I have a user who is not able to open any version of Adobe Illustrator on their mac that is running sequoia 15.0.1. It just says not responding. I tried: rolling back versions, uninstall and reinstalling the apps, uninstalling and reinstalling Creative Cloud, and Creative Cloud cleaner. None of that worked. Does anybody know of anything else I can try? MacBook Pro Processor: 2.3 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9Graphics: AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 4 GB Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MBMemory: 64 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 

Adobe MAX 2024 just finished and to no-one surprise; once again no announcement for Illustrator for Android. It's almost 2024. Come one guys. Get a move on. Not everybody in the Adobe ecosystem is an Apple fanboi.

En la última actualización de linea, cuando muevo un vértice, generando un nuevo ángulo de la linea y luego quiero voler al grado original, las guías inteligentes ya no me lo indican como "Extensión de linea" en color magenta como siempre. No puedo encontrar la configuración en preferencias. Alguna solución? He vuelto a una versión anterior y sí que funciona. Alguna solución a esto?

Is it possible to set a custom stroke weight value so that it is there every time you open the program?p.s. well, at least it's there among the list of other values, but it's better if it's the default value 

Hello fellow Adobe community, I don't normally post, but I do search regularly on these forums for help finding answers/solutions. Since I had a hard time finding the answer to this, and took me awhile to figure out, as I struggle with the math side of my brain. Time for me to give back & share my findings & hope this helps others. When given a vehicle template or architecture plans that have a scale ratio, and you need to scale it back up to size with illustrators scale tool & have to figure out what percent to scale it up. Or you are scaling something down with illustrator & need to note it in your plans but unsure of the proper ratio term for the percentage you used to scale it down. Here is the answer. 1:10 - 10% scale down - 1000% scale up1:2 - 50% scale down - 200% scale up3:20 - 15% scale down - 666.67% scale up1:5 - 20% scale down - 500%scale up1:4- - 25% scale down - 400% scale up3:10 - 30% scale down - 333.33% scale up2:5 - 40% scale down - 250%

Hello, excuse me for asking, but as I'm starting to use Photoshop and Illustrator, I was wondering if you could recommend some scripts or plugins to expand my repertoire and add more tools to the arduous task of graphic design. Thank you very much

Has anyone tried using code to create a new PathArt with a freeform gradient artStyle?I recently did this but got an unrendered freeform gradient object, though the gradient color stops are visible.All other paintField properties render correctly except for the freeform gradient.If I move the color stops with the cursor, the object renders properly; otherwise, it just shows up as white.However, if I only modify an existing PathArt that already has a freeform gradient using code, everything works fine and the gradient updates instantly to show the changes.Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

can anyone with experience on adobe illustrator contact me via dms i have a small problem i cant fix as im new  

Hiworking with the C++-API, it seems to me that the Freeform-Gradient can not be detected.When requesting the Color of a Paint Field, and it is a Gradient which is Linear or Radial, the Color is set to kGradient, and inside the ColorInformation there is the Handle to that Gradient.However, when it is a Freeform Gradient, the Color is set kNoneColor, which makes it impossible to detect the Gradient.Also, the enum for Gradients defined in AIColor.h is only /** Types of gradients, or color blends. See \c #AIGradientStyle. */ enum { /** A linear gradient extends in a straight line for a given length at a given angle from an origin point. */ kLinearGradient = 0, /** A radial gradient is circular, and extends for a given radius around a highlight point. */ kRadialGradient };    So my questions are:How to detect a Freeform-Gradient from a Paint Field of an Appearance?How to get detailed information about the Freeform, like the information about the other gradien

Hello,  Newbie here- Does flattening the PDF ensure the colors/elements won't mix/mess up in printing? Is this enough to ensure about printing exactly what is on the screen? Is flattened PDF good for printing wall art designs? Is printing at 300 dpi resolution enough? I'll test the printing on my own too, just wanted to gether any thoughts and experiences too.

Is there a way to cut a curved segment to a specific length? I mean a segment made with the arc tool. If this curved segment is for example 20cm long and I want to make a cut at 9,85cm on that length, how could I do it? Thank you all.

Hi all - Reposting what another memeber wrote because I'm having the same issue and looks like no one has been able to resolve it -  My hot keys that scale, rotate and move patterns only are not working. Usually if you hit the Tilde symbol with S, R (S~ and R~) and the tilde symbol alone, it scales, rotates and moves the pattern only. Since I've started usuing my new computer the tilde key does not seem to be working to isolate patterns.  My space bar is also not working as the quick hand tool.  Hope someone can please help - I cant figure out why!

Es posbiel agregar un codigo a la libreria de colores pantone?

I'm trying to create a text box with a script, so that the type area has a max width, and contents will auto line beak to fill the space. The plan is for a storyboard template generating tool, putting textboxes below each frame.This script will create a text object, but setting the width will squsih/stretch the text content to the set width, not create a textbox at that width I can then fill.I'm trying to get this to work like you simply clicked and draged out a type container, giving it a set width. var textFrame = app.activeDocument.textFrames.add(); textFrame.kind = TextType.AREATEXT; // Set the text contents textFrame.contents = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua."; // Set the maximum width textFrame.width = 200; textFrame.top = -100; textFrame.left = 100; 

When I don't apply blur or drop shadow in Illustrator, the application freezes and hangs a lot.

I usually use layer panel to move the layer front & back in the grphic window, rather than using keyboard shortcuts because it is more clear about the work I do. But if you Cut the red color "S" and Paste in the Front it will move the "S" out of the group. In this case Keyboard Shortcut & Layer Manipulation is not same. I wish to know whether it will affect the forth coming work. Video is attached 

Since updating Illustrator to the latest version, I can no longer open a new document.
