Greetings,

 

Illustrator 29.1

OS X 14.7.1

 

My custom Symbols panel is not staying persistent.

I have tried:

Nesting Panel in bar

Floating Panel

Saving Workspace

 

None of these keep the panel after a quit/launch of Illustrator.

 

Anyone else have this?

Scripts have no user library location, so they never transfer between versions. I would have though there would be no issue with that symbols library location though.
