Illustrator crashes when using Image Trace
Illustrator has been continually crashing when I use the Image Trace tool. I have been using it on the "Sketched Art" setting with an image file that is 20in x 13in @ 300dpi. Also, I have noticed that when I start to manipulate the advanced options, this is when it crashes most often.
I am using Illustrator CC on Mojave OS.

23.0.3 keyboard shortcuts stop working
after roughly 15 minutes of designing, my illustrator keyboard shortcuts no long work. When I select a shortcut (eg command z, or command s), I simply get a system error sound, but no action. This is true for ALL shortcuts
i am then forced to use the menu items, or restart illustrator to keep working normally.

Excel graph conversation doesn't work on a Mac anymore
When pasting an Excel graph into Illustrator, text is converted to rubbish on a Mac running OS High Sierra and the newest version of Illustrator.
Also, when converting the Excel file to a PDF and opening it in Illustrator, the same thing happens. BUT, when opening the PDF in Acrobat, everything looks just fine.
To make sure it wasn't an Excel bug I saved the file in an older version of Excel – that didn't solve the problem.
I used the same Excel file on a PC and copied it into the Windows-version Illustrator, also converted the file to PDF…4 votes -
Default Template Folder
Version 23.0 no longer opens template files from the default "Cool Extras" folder. Instead it navigates to the last folder saved. Please revert this back as it is a huge waste of time creating new documents now.
This also occurs for scripts, but I use less frequently and have dealt with it. Unacceptable for template files however.

Keyboard Increments in preferences doesn't work.
I set my Keyboard Increment to .0139 and anchor points move correctly. Then I change it to .00139, which has alway worked in the past, it now jumps about 10X the correct distance. I restarted. No change. I uninstalled, then reinstalled. No change. I restarted my computer. No change. I can't work with it like this. How do I get this fixed?

Unselctable and undo glitch
When I go to select a shape or text item sometimes the bounding box disappears. Even when I go to show bounding box (command + Shift + B) the issue isn't resolved. I don't do anything different and it seems to happen randomly. I have to restart illustrator to fix it but sometimes that doesn't.
Once the bounding box disappears I cannot track the type and if I move an item it goes back to its org place.
Additionally, when I hit undo rather than going back one action it will go back 4 or 5 actions. This only happens…

Way too many anchorpoints after expanding strokes or using the 'Blob Brush' tool
Years and years ago something changed in Pathfinder commands, and when expanding the results contained many more anchor points than in the version before. I submitted a workflow and was told this could not be corrected in the next version and possibly not even in the version after that. It took years to get better, and it was still not as good as in CS2 (yes).
Now, expanding strokes or even using the 'Blob Brush' results in so, so many anchor points that an immediate 'Simplify' is required to create usable designs. Using both the 'Pen' tool and all other…3 votes -
When moving object it counts as hundreds of inputs, filling the history
When you move an object with the mouse, it seems to consider each pixel or so it moves as an individual input, so if you just quickly drag something, your history is completely filled and it is impossible to undo enough to undo the single move. It also shows up as 'Undo' in the history tab rather than 'move' - only the final one is considered 'move'.

画像トレースパネルでカラーモードをモノクロに設定するとカラーを透過のカラーピッカーが使えない
macOS13.6.7
Illustrator 28.6問題が発生したときに実行していた手順
1. 画像を配置し、選択した状態で「画像トレース」パネルを開く。
2. プレビューをチェックしカラーモードをグレースケールに設定する。
3. 詳細を展開しオプションの「カラーを透過」のチェックボックスをチェックする。
4. カラーを透過がアクティブになっているにも関わらずカラーピッカーが選択できない。想定していた結果
他のカラーモードのようにカラーピッカーで透過色を選択できる。実際の結果
カラーピッカーで透過色を選択できない。デフォルトでは白が透過色となっているためカラーを変更していない場合にチェックボックスをチェックした場合は白が透過されるが、他のカラーモードで透過色を選択した上でカラーモードをグレースケールに変更した場合、 透過色が以前のモードのまま保持されるため透過される部分がなくなる。EN

Don’t delete preferences after downgrade
This issue is critical.
When downgrading using the CC app (from “Other versions”), the entire preference folder is wiped out, for instance from 27.9 to 27.8.1.
It means that downgrading delete without warning years of work on custom shortcuts, transparency presets, default options, workspaces, etc.
I lost everything just because I wanted to avoid some bugs I had in 27.9.
At the very least, there should be a warning. Ideally, there should be no deletion of preferences.
Even if the use makes a copy of their preferences folder (for instance by copying “enGB” to “enGB (backup)”, the backup…

Color Picker lets objects disappear in Outline Mode and in Exports!
When you use the Color Picker to change the color of texts, then this will lead to the problem, that every object of the same layer disappears in the Outline Mode AND much more worse: in the export.
I made a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBYTfLfOpRU- Create a new file.
- Create one ore more text objects. And some other path objects too, if you like.
- Use the Color Picker (!! not any other color tool) to change the color of a text.
- Go to the Outline Mode (ctrl+y) and see that every object seems to be invisible.
- Try to export the file (Export…
