save for web (legacy) ui zoomed in
Windows 10
Illustrator CC 26.3.1 (but has been happening for the last couple of updates)Under Export> Save for web(legacy) the UI that I see is very zoomed in with no scroll bars to move around the window. I'm unable to get to anything past the line in the screenshot. I can hit Enter to save it and can hit Esc to cancel, but can't really do anything else with it.
I have completely reset the preferences and tried checking UI scaling, neither helped.
The first 2 screenshots are from illustrator, the first one is what the UI looks like…

BUG: View Grid (Dots 1px) Freezes Illustrator
Using a document grid using dots in small intervals (10px or 1 px intervals) makes Illustrator super slow or even stops working.
Bug appeared in 25.3.1 and is still present in 25.4.1. Tested on multiple Macs (Catalina + Big Sur).

Align to key object automatic selection in align Panel
In the new update (24.2) I have "align to artboard" as a default but when I select multiple objects it automatically selects "align to key object" even after choosing the other multiple times. This is a new issue.

We have fixed this bug in our latest release – v 24.2.1 which is available worldwide now. Thanks for your patience on this.
Please note that after upgrading you might still see that Align To sets itself to Align to Key Object. If you see this, please manually set the Align To to the required setting, and this reported bug will not happen again. You’ll need to this one time only.
The reason Align To might get set to Key Object after update is because Ai remembers your last Align To on subsequent launches as well. So, if your last Align To was Key Object before quitting/upgrading, after first multi-selection, it will set itself to Key Object. After you manually change it one-time, it will work fine.

need to fix control handles
Handles have been broken for about 10 years now, time to fix them.
Clicking on corner tool handle, making stuff rotate, trying to stretch one direction, then it stretching diagonally.Things like that should not be going wrong in software as old as illustrator.

Please fix macOS Help > Search in menubar. It freezes and beachballs in Illustrator 2021 and 2022 even on new installs on new machines.
Something changed in the past couple versions of Illustrator that messes up macOS workflows. If you use the Help > Search bar to search the File, Edit, View etc menubar options, the app will freeze for a while and show the spinning beachball. This drastically slows down workflows that used to work.
This happens on Intel macs (including iMac Pro) as well as Apple Silicon macs (M1 Max) on new installs, fresh users. Extremely consistent. Searchbar used to work fine on all previous versions of Illustrator like CC 2019

Translation error (German)
When opening a file in illustrator with missing fonts, a window pops up to replace or activate fonts. There is a translation error in the German version of Illustrator 26.3.1 on mac OS 11.6.7.
The english word "Type" was translated to "Typ" instead of "Schrift".
This translation error seems to be common in other languages as far as i can see it here on uservoice.

Some menu items are missing access keys (underline letters when Alt is held) when
On Windows, Alt keys can be used to access all menus via keyboard.
When you hold Alt, a letter that you can press to access a particular item is underlined.Some items though are missing these underlines, specifically:
Edit > Spelling, My Settings, Edit Colors
Object > Collect for Export
Window > Extensions, Find Extensions on Exchange, Workspace, Toolbars... most panels here, including newer ones.Some are less needed, some are more important.
Please don’t miss these. It feels like new items loose these (except for new Select Same Text options — good job!)10 votes -

Rotate polygon with 3 sides (triangle)
(A) If I create a polygon with only 3 sides (triangle), then it has a centre that corresponds to a circle around the triangle.
(B) If I rotate the triangle by 90° with the Rotate tool, the centre of the circumcircle is used. That is correct.(C) If I rotate the same triangle by 90° with the menu command "Object > Transform > Rotate", then suddenly the centre of the bounding box is used as the centre of rotation. This is wrong in my eyes. Also, this new centre point remains.

Please stop changing things around
PLEASE STOP CHANGING THINGS AROUND.
We often have very tight deadlines. Please stop changing settings and moving things around. It has a lot of impact on our ability to meet deadlines. When you moving things around we have to spend an extra unexpected 2/3 hours late at night try to figure out what has changed and how to do it the new way.

Using Illustrator “Paste In Front” creates a Find window on the Desktop
Hi;
I have recently begun having a paste in front (⌘F) issue in AI 2020.For DECADES I have been able to select an item and copy (⌘C) then paste in front (⌘F) to create a copy of the selection exactly on top that I can then step/move as needed.
I have been doing this in the Illustrator 2020 application for years.Now when I’m in Illustrator and I hit the paste in front (⌘F), it takes me directly to the desktop and creates a Find window. (And Does Not Paste In Front!)
I can use “Paste In Front” in…

Illustrator version:25.3 (updated today to run natively for M1)
Hardware Specifications:
MacBook Pro M1
OS: macOS Big Sur 11.4I updated my Illustrator today to run natively on M1 and have been facing this issue for a while.
I changed none of my preferences but randomly seem to be getting this warning pop-up that does not go away when clicking on 'Continue' or 'Cancel' - I tried reinstalling the app which didn't work at first, so I removed my preferences and tried again but that did not fix it. It seems the warning pop-ups just when I open the application…
