Unable to zoom past 1600% when GPU performance is turned off in Illustrator 25.3.1

Well, I updated illustrator today and have major viewing issues.

Black Boxes appear when selecting outlined text with the direct selection tool, when moving a shape, and in the upper left corner when viewing artboard. Everything disappears when zooming in more than 2400% in Preview mode and has a pixelated outline.

MacOS Catalina version 10.15.6

Adobe Illustrator v25.3.1

Hi all,

 

Sorry about the inconvenience this issue has caused. We're currently investigating this. In the meantime, please turn on the GPU Performance from Illustrator preferences for better performance.

This doesn't work for me. My UI Scaling has been in the #1 position for over a year and I've had this issue. Considering stopping using Illustrator because I can't work in it.

I switched back to the iMac profile - and it's still working - for now.

I'll check it out tomorrow when I have done a reboot.

Ah the problem came back after restarting Illustrator.

Switching colour profile fixes the issue.

mmmmm that was short lived, went back in to illustrator zoomed right in ... blank screen! Set display to RGB (1998) and back came the artwork at zoomed in size. Shut the file (not quit), opened and zoomed and nothing again!! Went to display, set to iMac and there it was again ... gona again now. It only seems to work wilst working on the file that the display was set up on!!!  Very frustrating.

It's working for me more or less the same way.

Frustrating indeed - maybe it will offer the team somewhere to investigate!

That works perfectly, much appreciated. It's been a long time coming and many 'attempts' at fixing it but this seems to work fine. Fingers crossed. Thanks.

Didn't work for me. I was already on the #1 UI setting and tried all other ranges and nothing worked.
