Illustrator 2019- always making a selection
When I want to use the application, illustrator decides it wants to draw a selection. If I reach out of the workspace to use the toolbars or panels, it will draw a selection from on the artboard to my cursor, as if I were clicking and dragging. If I click back onto the artboard to disengage the selection and try to use the panels, it will make a new selection from the point I clicked. This renders the program unusable. There is also a lot of lag when navigating menus, and the cursor will decide to stick to the scrollbars…

***** / skew / tilt angle disappear
when I transform an object the rotation angle remains visible in the transformation panel while that the inclination angle disappears ... why? it's very frustrating ...
In InDesign this is possible and correct .... not in illustrator.It is not possible to reset or reproduce the angle of inclination on another object.

Duel Screen Issue
Both Ps and Ai malfunction when using a second monitor. Problem: when either application is open and I shuts off, unplugs 2nd monitor or closed laptop with 2nd monitor still plugged in, the next time I am in either app the files I have open are frozen. Or when I open a new file there is no art board shown. The only resolve is to restart the program.

White pixel line around shapes
Ever since Appearance was introduced, my artwork on screen suffers from a white pixel line around shapes. Seems a rendering problem: the line is not actually existing - zooming in does not make it thicker, it's always one pixel. Tried switching GPU off and on. No difference.
The appearance of the black shape: Fill is black, Stroke is None.5 votes -
selection bug
As the title describes, this is a bug with the selection tool. I've had this bug several times today, everytime it does I have to restart Illustrator which is madness.
feel free to check the files that I've provided, and please FIX THE BUGS BEFORE ADDING MORE FEATURE TO ILLUSTRATOR. the features are useless unless Illustrator improve the reliability to the users.

automatic quitting when clicking the red close button
When clicking on the RED "Close" button, Illustrator prompts me to either (Save what's on the clipboard" or "Discard". Then automatically quits. EVERY SINGLE TIME. This is NOT right no matter what your tech support peons were told to say.

Objects sliding when switching between outline and preview
Most of the times I'm working with quite simple graphics (preparing already existing logos and graphics for printing).
Sometimes when switching from preview to outline view, and back, I notice that some objects aren't where they are supposed to be. In outline view they are at their supposed position, but in preview they are somewhere else. It isn't a big problem when I notice it happening - the problem is when I don't and print it like that. When I notice it, moving the object, pressing unite, or several other actions will make the object pop back to their right…

Randomly Freezes Ai 24.0.1 - Windows 10 Pro
I'm using Illustrator 24.0.1 - Randomly freezes, have to shut down using Task Manager. Also sometimes clicking on a shortcut, say to my symbols library, for example, doesn't open illustrator, struggles on some previews. The freezing issue was on the prev release too.

Remebering fractional values in Extrude & Bevel
You can type in fractional values in Extrude & Bevel and they work fine, although AI rounds them up immediately in fields, though applies to the art.
But when you try to save this appearance in Graphic style and then re-apply to another art, all fractional bits are gone, AI treats them as integers both ways.4 votesHi,
Sorry about the issue, but the feature works that ways.
1) On applying Effects in fractional values, it gets applied immediately. While saving this appearance in Graphic style and then re-apply to another art it will work the same (as with fractional values)
2) While trying to edit already applied effects, the input details get’s rounded off. As a result, you have to enter fractional values for the precision.
I hope this info will be helpful.
Incase you still face any issue get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.htmlThanks

Gradient issue on import
When exporting PDFs from indesign that contain a gradient, then opening the PDF into illustrator, the gradient completely vanishes. Tried placing the PDF into illustrator and it previews but if embedded or flattened, it disappears. Tried straight copy and paste form indesign into illustrator and nothing. This has never been an issue before and is required when printing as clients often supply indesign files and the print RIP requires illustrator etc. etc.
