Exporting DWG or DXF and importing it back leads to artifacts
On importing .dwg or .dxf files into illustrator (even for files that have been exported from illustrator in those formats), the file opens with unwanted artifacts. Please see the image below. On the left is the ai file and on the right is the same file exported as .dwg and opened, with artifacts on the curves.
This is basic and shouldn't be happening in the first place. It makes working with manufacturing utterly painful.
Request you guys to please iron out this glitch.

Measure tool stops working for measuring an area after we toggle to Selection tool with Cmd/Ctrl and move the object
If we create an object and try to measure its area with the Measure tool — it gets highlighted and the area gets calculated fine, showing the result in the Info panel.
But as soon as we hold Cmd/Ctrl to temporarily pick Selection tool, and move the object, releasing Cmd/Ctrl breaks the measuring — no area, no highlight. Reselecting doesn’t help.1 vote -
Adding cloud fonts is a terrible experience
I click to use the cloud font and it should just download, it says it is downloaded and it is not. I have to remove it (which it doesn't show that it's on my system, it's a bug) and then re-add it.

Rendering Issue with Knock Out Group beyond 200% zoom out
1 background layer, 1 top layer containing 1 text and 1 rectangle grouped together and set as knock out group. A fill is added to the text with opacity 0%, the initial fill is deleted.
Until I zoom in to 200%, the text is not rendered. Starting from 200% zoom, the text is correctly knocked out from the rectangle.
Export works as expected.1 vote -

Drop Shadow, Outer Glow, Etc. make the files extremely bloated
Every time I create a drop shadow or an outer glow now, the thing doesn't render properly on screen (see screenshot), but worst of all that simple addition adds about 500MB to my file size. What's going on?
M1 MacPro Sonoma
Ai version 29.3 - though same thing happens with 28, 27 and 26.I've also included a simple file - add a drop shadow with about 15px size and save (without compression) and watch the file increase, Also see rendering errors.

EXPORT AS JPEG (at least) 150 dpi's option is not working properly
PLEASE CHECK - it says 150 dpi's but the file is less. If I do the same in a previous version of illustrator, it is accepted.

Let users select their own brush strokes rather than enforcing inappropriate and slow ones on them
What if Illustrator didn't default to inappropriate brush strokes every time I attempted to use their brush? Often, I find myself working on designs that need clean vector outlines rather than a ragged brush stroke effect. Having to switch back from the ragged brush stroke every time is time-consuming and slows the software. What if we gave users the freedom to select the brush of their choice?

Two finger mac trackpad zooming instead of panning randomly
When panning with two fingers trackpad on mac, it sometimes zooms in randomly instead of panning. Not sure what the issue is because it does not happen in other apps with trackpad pan/zoom feature.

Curvature Tool hotkey Shift+` (shown as Shift+~) doesn’t work with Russian keyboard input
Ai team believes everyone uses English it feels like.
Backtick is reported to fail to work often, but here it’s even more convoluted.
In Russian, the key that houses backtick (`) and the tilde (~, with Shift held) types Cyrillic 'ё' and its capital from 'Ё' respectively.If I map Curvature Tool to just backtick — it works.
But with Shift added, like Ai offers by default — nope.There is a larger request on a similar topic, Some shortcuts don't work while using non-English keyboard / language layout — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/44393445 — but perhaps the team needs to solve it…

Changing the size of a graphic will not remain stable and does not maintain it's location point.
I have a graphic that uses the top-left as the alignment reference point. It is on an artboard that is positioned in whole numbers (no decimals).
I want it to be at X: 20px and Y: 20px
I want it to be W: 700px or Y: 700px (either one not both)
I do not want the position of X or Y to change from 20px.
I want to maintain whole numbersWhat happens instead:
When I resize the graphic it will not maintain a whole number and it changes the position/location of my reference point. I have snap to pixel…1 vote -
Selection tool works like the Direct Selection Tool
I cannot use the Selection Tool because it works like the Direct Selection Tool, therefor I cannot scale or move any objects on my artboards.
I have tried the workaround to change settings in preferences, but the problem still persists.

32GB DDR4 RAM
