Spinning wheel when switching between documents if something is selected in the document.
I've noticed that if an object is selected in any document then switching to that document will cause the spinning wheel of death for about 5-10 seconds. If nothing is selected then the switch will happen immediately, like it should do.

Working is going slow even if on M1 pro MacBook.

All the best...

Sometimes a selection cannot be canceled
Sometimes it is not possible to deselect a selected object - even if you lock the corresponding layer or take other measures to deselect it. In such cases, only restarting the application helps.

Repositioning an existing dimension does not really allow to snap the dimension line’s position
When we create a new dimension with Smart Guides enabled, it snaps to an existing dimension quite fine: by the line, by the anchor, just by proximity. The precision is strong, the snapping has a distinct ledge.
If I try to reposition on re-snap an existing dimension to another one though...
It doesn't work.
See the GIF attached, please.
Illustrator highlights the neighboring line, it tries to persuade you it snaps... but there is no ledge felt, no snapping happens, the line does no stop exactly at the position needed. It’s just broken.And since we can’t define a default…
