Hey,

I have followed the steps in creating a custom arrowhead stroke succsesfully;

  1. Copy 'Arrowheads' document (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 2023\Support Files\Required\Resources\en_US) into plug-ins folder (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 2023\Plug-ins).
  2.  Open plug-ins folder version and follow the in-document instructions on how-to create a custom arrowhead.
  3.  Add custom created arrowhead to Symbols panel.
  4.  Save document in plug-ins folder.
  5.  Quit and restart.

The custom arrowhead appears in the stroke list, by name only - no avatar visible.

When applying custom arrowhead to stroke, Illustrtor freezes and subsequently crashes.

Hello @Ivan30459196c3ka,

 

We understand how frustrating it can be to experience crashes in Illustrator, especially in the middle of work. Would you mind trying the steps in this help article (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/fix-crash-on-launch-issues.html) and checking if it helps? Also, kindly share the crash report using the steps in this article (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/crash-next-steps.html) and use the same email account as your community account for quick tracking and the custom arrowhead as suggested by Doug so that we can check it on our end. We appreciate your time and efforts in resolving this issue.

 

Looking forward to your response.

 

Thanks,
Anubhav
