  2. New Rotate View Tool

    Windows 10
    Illustrator Version 25.3.1 (64 bit)
    Using mouse and keyboard, no wacom tablet

    When using the new Rotate View Tool, all alignment buttons and arrow keys also get flipped... Meaning if you rotate view, your alignment center top and bottom with actually center left and right. Also nudging with the arrow keys will move it up or down instead of left/right.

  5. Selection in the right pane

    Since a recent update of Illustrator, it has been very difficult or even almost impossible to select data in the right panels with the mouse. The cursor is stuck, and you must either use the keyboard to erase data and change their value or double-click on the data and replace its value.
    This bug was not present in the former versions of Illustrator (Windows).

  7. Resizing window distorts artwork and interface

    Selecting Edit>Recolor Artwork resulted in Illustrator distorting the contents of the user interface when the application window was resized. I was unable to replicate the problem after restarting Illustrator. The attached screenshot is not resized, it is exactly as Illustrator appeared after the bug manifested.

  8. Lag when mouseover on Font menu

    On macOS, if you click the "Type" menu in the menubar at the top of the screen, then hover over "Font" in the dropdown menu, there is serious lag as the fonts load. Sometimes if you're just passing over the Font option on your way to another item, you can experience lag for 3-5 seconds as the fonts load anyway.

    Regards

  11. Annoying undo behaviour - please don't undo the values in the dialogs

    It has been like this forever but it is very annoying all the same: when you have selected an object and you hit Return to move it by a value of n px, and you undo that action, the x and y values in the Move dialog have been restored to their former value. 99% of the time this is annoying and not what I need. I want the value to be remembered and not undone. I only want the OPERATION to be undone.

  14. Home screen user interface not fully loading - looks like script - can't open templates either

    when I open Ai, the home screen UI doesn't seem to be loading correctly or all the way. see image below. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling, updated my graphics card (Radeon AMD Vega 64) and made sure windows 10 was up to date. I'm able to open a blank file by clicking on the templates, but if I try to create my own new project, I just get a blank pop-up box.

  15. Bending forgets the value

    While rotating objects keeps the value of the angle in the dialogue box, bending immediately forgets the value. A bug?

    Während beim Drehen von Objekten der Wert des Winkels im Dialogfeld erhalten bleibt, vergisst das Verbiegen den Wert sofort wieder. Ein Bug?

  16. Round corner not showing, object select not showing multi-select

    round corner only shows with regular select tool but not direct select tool
    when using direct select tool, would not outline selected object
    round corner mod would only show up for default shapes, if anything is divided or combined the round corner stops showing.

    Why do we need to vote for bugs to be fixed?
    shouldn't all bugs be fixed?? i mean it's not a new feature we are requesting.

    This happens when edges get hidden.

    Enable them back with View > Show Edge (or Cmd/Ctrl + H).


    Also, you can edit your corner values precisely with Corners field in Control and Properties panel. The Shape section in Transform panel allows you to do the same for live shapes.

  17. Leading space drop down menu

    Hey Adobe, on my Mac mini m1 the leading space from the contextual menu's is different between applications. See attaches image. I would say the space in PS is OK. Bigger makes the menu's harder to read. ( I'm working in a 4>2k scaled mode on my screen)

  18. Save for WEB makes main window unaccessible

    Open Save for WEB => change the Image Size => hit Enter. Sometimes the next window popups invisible and I have no access to it. Thus it is impossible to close the Save dialog and get back to the artwork. Anywhere I click I only hear the ding sound (meaning like I have to confirm or cancel something first).
    Save for Web window is inaccessible with mouse too: I cant resize it or interact with any of its UI elements. I can move it tho.

    But I can jump elements with the Tab button. With Tab, if I hit Enter…
