Window snapping in macOS moves Close/Minimize/Fullscreen icons in title bar
macOS 10.14; Illustrator 22.1
Window snapping Illustrator (using tools like Moom, Spectacle, Magnet, etc.) forces the "traffic light" icons in the top left of the window to move from their default location.
Sometimes the icons fall halfway off the top of the title bar; sometimes they fall all the way off; sometimes they aren't affected at all. There doesn't seem to be any way to recreate the issue consistently.
Manually adjusting the size of the window by stretching it with a mouse will reset the icons to the correct position.
This seems to be related to https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-bugs/suggestions/32614258-bug-app-window-missing-close-minimize-expand, except my…

Window resizes in increments
After a doc is open and the window has been open to the largest size. clicking the bottom right corner to resize the doc window feels like it is snapping to the bottom or to increments of a set size. HOW do we turn this off to resize the document window to any free flowing size ?

dots (.) on units
when typing units, in any case (like sizing a square, or the width of a line), we were able to use the dot (.) for decimals, now it only reads the commas (,). So if i create a square (or any other object) and type on size something as: 3.5mm, it reads it as 35mm, if i want a 3.5mm square, i need to type 3,5mm (with a comma).
it is more practical to accept the dot, since it is right there at the numpad on the keyboard.
can we go back to that?

A number of my panels will not open - e.g.: when I click to expand the character panel, all I get below is a black box.
Many of my panels still open as they should. However, I'm having this problem with the info, character, paragraph, properties, stroke and align panels. Any help on what could fix it would be greatly appreciated? I've searched on the adobe support community and google and no one else seems to be having this problem. Thanks!

4K Display Proportion or scaling distortion
I'm having the following problem which has been noted as a bug by Adobe support:
When creating a square image or artboard on a 4K monitor (mine's a Samsung U28-E590) the rendered image or artboard (and anything else really) is made longer in the X/horizontal dimension. So a 130 x 130mm block measures 130 x 135mm when measured with a physical ruler at 1:1 scale.By simply moving the entire application window over to the Macbook side the proportions are displayed correctly and the X and Y sides are identical. This issue arrises regardless of starting up Ai on the…

Workspace Bug
Have a strange bug. Have Dual Cinema displays with all of my palettes on one monitor. Saved workspace for this configuration. If I click to toggle between fill/stroke it resets my workspace and moves all of my palettes over to my first monitor but only in the bottom right 1/4 of the screen. If i hit "x' to toggle between fill/stroke this doesn't happen.

Window size not big enough - Can't open the illustration
When I try to open a document from my drive, I get a pop-up window that says: Can't open the illustration. There is not enough room for the window; increase document area and try again.
I've only had this issue since the last update. What can I do to fix this?
7 votesI am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 27.4.1 which is available worldwide now.

Expand Appearance is greyed out in 2019 compare to CC2018, same doc, same selection, it is enabled.
I have a document which, when I select certain objects in CC 2019 - Expand Appearance isn't available and Expand, when used, doesn't give the expected result. Exact same document, exact same selection in CC 2018 and Expand Appearance is available, and when clicked, works perfectly and as expected.
FYI - the selection has a number of Transform effects applied to it.5 voteswe will need someone to have a look at the file to determine the issue.

Stop asking about switching to the Touch interface
I have a laptop with a touch screen (that I never use, and never intend to use). Every time I open Illustrator, it tells me that it has detected that I am using a touch enabled screen and asks if I want to switch. I would be VERY appreciative if you could make this pop up with a "don't ask me again on this computer" checkbox as it is really annoying as it not always obvious that it has popped up and it makes the screen unresponsive.
3 votesHi,
Sorry to hear that this dialog was annoying you so much. I am glad to share that this has been removed from the latest release of Illustrator. Please upgrade to latest version to get rid of this issue.
Thanks

workspace options not available
I can't figure this out. Clearly someone else has had this issue, but there is no published solution. From your archive:
"Workspaces not working, all panels hidden on start up.
Just update to CC23.0.1 and when I start up Illustrator all the panels are turned off and my workspace won't change or reset.I can turn on the panels manually, but it resets when I close Illustrator. The reset, new workspace and manage workspaces options are greyed out. If I try to change the workspace nothing happens.

Numeric Entry into Control bar measurements sometimes trigger move dialogue instead of behaving correctly
macOS Mojave 10.14.4
Illustrator 23.0.4 and also previous versions
On the control bar I type a numeric entry in the object's width field, expecting to enter the width in the field on hitting enter.
Instead the Move dialogue opens on hitting enter. (this result also intermittently happens with other numeric fields in the control bar).

Calligraphic Brush Rotation Preview Bug
I have the Wacom Art Pen with the latest drivers installed with the latest version of Adobe Illustrator. When I change the rotation variation for an angle in Photoshop I get a preview of where the angle of my brush is headed, In Illustrator I get the same preview of the brush tip even when rotating it. I know it is working because I can see the paint rotating but the preview of the brush is not. This makes it extremely difficult to know in what angle my brush is going.
