Using Tab to advance to next dialog box field only works occasionally
Editing text in latest Illustrator (immediately after update)... can't tab between font-size and leading fields - I can get it to work momentarily by closing the box and trying again, but the big returns the next time I try to edit text.

user interface PPI mixed, wrong, "new" dialog unusable
see attached picture
this used to happen more intermittently but recently it's happening every time. creating new items is completely broken.
different panels appear at 100% scale, while others appear at 200% scale it seems.affects the actual menus and the common open/save file dialog sometimes
when I restart illustrator, restart the machine, or dock/undock monitors it changes in seemingly unpredictable ways

Unable to assign CMD+Z to Undo tool
I am using Illustrator CC 2018 22.0.1 for Mac (High Sierra 10.13.2) and I am having trouble assigning CMD + Z to my "Undo" tool. After my last update, I had lost nearly all of the default keyboard shortcuts (I had never customized them before so I assume they were the defaults) like cmd + s = save, cmd + c = copy, cmd + v = paste, etc. which was really frustrating to always have to go to the menu bars to do small actions. However, I have since gone in manually and reinstated the old shortcuts, but for…

Right Click does not work
This is not an idea, it is a bug complaint! My right click does not work on Illustrator on anything. I just downloaded the latest version of Adobe Illustrator Version 2017 21.1.0 in hopes to correct the "right clicking" issue that was in my older version (version prior to 21.1.0). I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program and the same problem still persist. My right click does not work! This is slowing down my work and it's definitely not time efficient. Help me fix this now!

Windows Panels resize at applications restart
Not sure if this is a Windows issue or a new AI 2018 issue. The problem I am having with all 2018 Adobe products is that when I enter back into AI after restart my Window Panel properties are all collapsed even though my saved work-space is saved with all of them always expanded. This causes me to go through every window panel and expand it. Not a huge deal but super annyoing and a time waste. This is happening consistently. I am running Win10- pro with the latest AI CC update.

All Dialog Boxes Open Behind App
This is happening more and more, and usually when first opening the application. If some dialog box, typically a warning or something, pops up but for some reason then gets pushed behind or hidden by the main app window, there is no way to get back to it and no way for the app to function. Trying to click on ANY part of the app just gets the "no - beep", the sound that plays when you are trying to do something but something else has to happen first... like if a warning box pops up and you try to…

tools panels disappeared.
I've just updated the software and got a dialogue box that some preferences were missing, then the interface changed to the dark one (I opt for the lightest one) and then all my tools seem to have disappeared and I can't get them back. I've quit, reopened, and repeated after restarting but same problem so far exists.

Spelling mistake in the touchbar Arrange option
On the newer MacBook Pros with touchbar, there's a spelling mistake if you go to the arrange option on the touchbar. It says "Bring Froward" instead of the usual: "Bring Forward"

Vectors disappearing
When working on art-boards with a lot of vectors, not all of them show up. It's as if it can't handle working with that many.

"Open" button not responding first time
After the recent update, with the new layout of the home screen, I have to click the "Open..." button two or three times before it opens the file explorer window. It acts like it is being clicked, but then nothing happens.

Toplayers in layer panel flip open when opening files, even after closing them when closing the file.
Files with a lot of layers that have sublayers should keep their toplayers 'closed' to keep things orderly and manageable. Now every time I open a file, AI flips most (not all! why?) toplayers open, thereby showing all sublayers, making the layer panel a superlong list and cluttering view. I always have to start by manually closing them all again. rinse and repeat after closing the file.... There seems to be no structure as to which toplayers get flipped open and which stay closed, so it is not a pref setting it seems.

Zoom - Scroll Wheel
In Illustrator CC the program seems hardwired to not listen to the tablet settings about scroll wheel zoom or even touch pad zoom. There are lots of people online complaining about this and trying to find work arounds.
I suggest just creating a hard wired button like photoshop did to fix this issue.
This wasn't an issue with Illustrator CS4, so I'm not sure what changed.10 votesPlease accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience.

Drop down menus stop working
Drop down menus will stop working at random. For example, the weight menu under the character panel will not drop down. However, if for example I have my font set to "Black", although I cannot use the drop down menu, I can select the word "Black" and type "Bold" and it will switch the font to bold.
This happens with various menus throughout the software. I have not been able to fix it. Even after quitting the program and restarting my computer the issues persists.

Properties Panel allows to edit Transform values when there is no selection
The panels still show you properties even if nothing is selected. So you can tweak them all you want, just to notice you’re actually not modifying anything.
If nothing is selected they should be disabled

Naming of Pathfinder functions is inconsistent between the Pathfinder Panel and Effect
Naming of Pathfinder functions is inconsistent between the Pathfinder Panel (and the Undo text) and the Pathfinder Effect.
The Tooltip shows “Unite” in the Pathfinder Panel
Unite from the Pathfinder Panel is the same as Add.
Unite is missing from the Pathfinder Effect and is named Add instead.
If you have clicked the Unite button in the Pathfinder Panel, the Undo option displays “Undo Add”.The Tooltip shows “Minus Front” in the Pathfinder Panel
Minus Front from the Pathfinder Panel is the same as Subtract.
Minus Front is missing in the Pathfinder Effect and is named Subtract instead.
