There is probably a graphic style applied to the layer. with 2 transform effects.

Open the layer panel and post a screenshot.

Try Object > Expand Appearance

The file has effects applied, see the Appearance panel. Expand Appearance makes the effects permanent.

Hi @Tanha32024900jnc2,

It seems like you've encountered a file that behaves unexpectedly when opened in Adobe Illustrator. You mentioned that when you ungroup the file, the whole file disappears, leaving only one group. This behavior could be due to various factors, including the way the original file was created and saved. Would you mind expanding the group from the object menu? That would resolve the issue.


Let us know if you need further assistance.

Best,

my simple question is , how to create such file

[Doug A Roberts · Accepted solution]

Create a group. Select it, and in the Appeareance panel apply Effect > Distort & Transform > Transform.

Give it a horizontal move value equal to its width. Enter however many copies are required to span the artboard.

Apply another transform effect. This time, give it a vertical move value equal to its height. Enter however many copies are required to span the artboard vertically.
