Background Save does not work
Background Save does not work in Illustrator unless very specific conditions are met (must be a PDF-compatible AI file). Many users prefer to work with PDF switched off - and background save should also work when saving the file as a PDF document. It's basically a half-finished feature and should work under all circumstances and conditions.

Guides not scaling correctly on copy/paste into large canvas
If I copy a 5"x5" rectangle from a regular document and paste it to a large canvas document, it remains 5"x5", as expected.
However, if I convert the same shape to a guide and then copy it from a regular document to a large canvas document, the guide becomes 50"x50". This really makes things difficult when copying guides and artwork together into a large canvas.

It's 2020. Why is it still impossible to scale a graph with the free transform tool.
It's an insult to designers, especially in the age of data, that we can't properly use the graph tool without having to enter the data and officially break it before having the ability to scale it like any other vector object. Please get with the program and make it a scalable vector with data intact and editable.

New update (v24.3) printer errors
After the latest Illustrator update (v24.3), it keeps giving me printing error messages. My printer drivers and etc are up-to-date. This is the first time this has happened in many years, I don't even remember the last time I had printer errors via Illustrator. I've used Ai for over 20 years of my professional design and illustration career, several of the Ai CC 2020 updates have been nothing but a royal pain-in-the-a$$ overloaded with glitches, bugs, and crashes. I've never been so frustrated with this beloved drawing program. Adobe, please get Adobe apps to work properly like it once was.…

CC Color Library changes when moving to 2nd monitor
When using a 2nd monitor, if I move a CC app from the primary laptop monitor to the secondary monitor, the CC Color Library changes. The color shifts are minimal, but enough to be problematic. Additionally, the background color of the library changes from the expected dark gray to a light gray.
I've verified my monitors and they are calibrated properly, so this is not a monitor calibration issue. I noticed the issue within the last few weeks, less than a month ago.
See attached images for examples.

Save as SVG destroys <path>
Attached is a very simple SVG drawing (rendered by MathJax) of a path representing the letter k (in math mode). It loads and renders fine in AI 24.2.3 on WIndows 10. But when I save it, I get the second attached file, which also has a path but a very different-looking one (unrecognizable). Presumably a bug in the SVG export engine?

「戻る」「進む」を繰り返すとオブジェクトが消える
1：os…windows10
バージョン：2020。2020/9/4現在で最新のもの
2：ショートカットキーで、「戻る」「進む」を何度か連打する
3：データの巻き戻し等ができる
4：「戻る」「進む」で変化があったオブジェクト自体が丸ごと消える
例）テキストオブジェクト「こんにちは」の「は」の部分に変更があった場合、テキストオブジェクト「こんにちは」自体が消滅します今回大切なデザインデータが消えて憤っています。便利な機能追加は有難いですが、デバックはきちんとやって頂きたいです。これは数人体制で1日デバックすれば分かるレベルかと。

Copy / paste not working - breaks text formatting and usually drops any vector content as well.
Copy / paste not working - breaks text formatting and usually drops any vector content as well. This happens whether the copy/paste is within one Illustrator file or between two. VERY frustrating. I've found that I can occasionally get it to work by copying and pasting within the same document (everything must be grouped as one), and if it is successful, quickly copy the pasted version and then it might paste into the other Illustrator file.
Solution from support was to downgrade from 24.4 to 24.01. This seems to have done the trick - but now I can't allow CC…

Text locks after resizing
When I resize a single line text object with the selection tool, the text becomes immediately locked, and I'm unable to click on it to move or resize it further. The only way to select the object is to CMD+2 every other object and then select all. Even then, the text can't be moved/resized, just deleted.

Illustrator (24.3) Slow lagging, AI and EPS files issues, non responsive
macOS Mojave (10.14.6)
Working on large scale signage graphics - have completing almost exactly the same thing for previous jobs with no issue. 24AUG20 AI auto updated and instantly could not move graphics in file - constant spinning wheel and slow loading times.
Saving file was extremely slow - ceasing to save from 80-90% and then crashing (crash report sent). The only way to continue working was to save as EPS.
Also attempted saving graphic elements out as EPS files to place into INDD where EPS was pixilated (fully or partially). PDF exported from INDD unable to save correctly with…

Text height is wrong
When you select a specific text height, it is not correct. Say for instance you select 1 inch for text height but in reality the cap height is .68 inches. We work at a sign shop and a lot of jobs require a specific text height. This is misleading when I pick 1 inch for text height and it is no where near 1 inch in height. Can you please make it where the text height corelates to the actual cap height of the text, otherwise this feature is useless.
2 votesLatest Illustrator releases have Font Height Options you can access form Character panel’s menu — they allow you to set font height as a capital / x-height specifically.
The functionality has some minor issues (regarding rounded stems for some fonts, keeping the chosen option between launches), but otherwise it is very good. Please try it!

Clicking "Add to Dictionary" on the right-click context menu for spell check does not update red underline...
When adding a word to the spell-check dictionary using the right-click context menu, the underline remains under the word. Shouldn't that get removed after adding the word to the dictionary? It does not get removed from other instances of the word in the document either.

Bring back CS5 image trace controls and results, PLEASE!!
Over the years, each update in Adobe Illustrator has resulted in poorer trace results for complex line work. I specifically keep an old Mac so I can run CS5 just to trace. Please bring back the advanced controls CS5 had so illustrators such as myself can use the updated version of Adobe Illustrator to trace hand sketched work. I've attached a sample to show you results from CS5 trace and the current Adobe Illustrator.
