Hey everyone, Luke from Adobe here. Wanted to share a quick demo, highlighting you can now remove the background of your images directly inside Illustrator. The output creates an embedded copy of your original file.

Do you see this helping reduce some of the back and forth between Photoshop and Illustrator for certain workflows?

I’m building a small Illustrator plugin for faster Bezier handle control.

It adds a tool that does custom handle selection, multi-select handle movement, Alt-based handle locking, arrow nudging, path preservation on anchor removal, a compact numeric panel and more. The kind of functionality Illustrator has been always lacking and why people rather design logos in Glyphs.

It's a cross between Illustrator's native Direct Selection Tool and Glyph's handle management functions.

I’m looking for feedback from people who do logo/type/icon/vector cleanup work and spend a lot of time editing paths.

Would this solve a real annoyance for you? Would you find this useful?

If yes, I’m preparing it for release.

Vector Illustration.
I would like to make it stand out more, but keep the strict geometric and flat style. If you have any advice, please provide it. Thank you for being specific

Anyone know how to create this kind of wave dots like this? I'm thinking about using blend tool with dash dot stroke, but result is pretty messy

Hey everyone,
I recently finished designing a set of custom icons for an e-commerce client, and I’d love to get some fresh eyes on them.
The goal was to create a clean and modern set that fits the brand.
Be as honest as you like (please).
Thanks in advance!

why is the stroke around only this (see picture) not exporting. i tried rebooting, different ways of exporting nothing works. the stroke thickness is 1pt so it should be big enough to export i dont understand can someone please help me?

edit: this only happens when "bleeding" is in that spot of the artboard. i moved it to the middle and then it did export correctly with the stroke around the text. but yeah it needs to be in its spot at the bottom left so idk why that won't work and the stroke around the text doesnt export with it.

edit 2: i sort of solved it! i moved the text from the middle down its not in the exact position i wanted but the stroke around the text now exported properly

Is there a built in way for me to select JUST the embedded raster graphic(s) within my Adobe Illustrator file? I have a number of photos with vector labels overlayed upon them, and I want to build an action that exports them as SVGs. Unfortunately, the embedded photos are often too larger to upload the final SVG into other systems and so need to be rasterized down to 150ppi first. But to build that into an action, I need some automated way of selecting all of the embedded raster graphics. Is there a way to do that withing core Illustrator?
