Stuck on Rotate or Reflect Tool - Wacom Input Device
I have run into this issue many times over the years (multiple AI versions) and figured I'd add to the posts about it.
When using either the Rotate or Reflect tool, Illustrator often gets stuck. What I mean by stuck is that after trying to rotate or reflect some artwork, the Rotate or Reflect tool remains active as if you never released right click. This makes it so that every subsequent movement just rotates around the artwork as though you were still holding down right click. If you try to click elsewhere in the program, nothing happens. Clicking with a…

Crash on Quit
Illustrator crashes on quit 4 out of 5 times on my Mac and has for many months and builds. Crash on quit wouldn't be so bad if Illustrator didn't save so many interface and plugin settings on quit.

Eraser doesn’t work if I lock an object behind
Whenever I lock an object behind the object I am try to erase I can't erase anything. It is a really annoying bug that needs to be fixed.
1 voteDo you still have this problem?

Lag on every move I make!!
Moving an object. Changing the tool. Changing a colour. Everything move I make in illustrator brings up the colour wheel of death. Just moved from CS6 to CC, worst move ever.

SVG paste truncating curves
Pasting SVG seems a bit broken. I have 1778 curves that I've copied from Rhino 3D WIP (it copies as SVG). I paste it to Illustrator, and Most of the curves automatically change to straight. Not only that, but it's automatically merging some of the points that are close together.
This leads me to believe that Illustrator is rounding the points lower than it should.
Enter Inkscape. I pasted there, and it's fine. I wanted to check to see if it was a failure of Rhino. So copied from Inkscape and paste to Illustrator... same issue.
Copy only a Little…

Stroke not aligned with Fill
Stroke is not aligned with Fill
When Drawing, the stroke is not rendered on the actual place where it's placed and not properly aligned with Fill1 voteIt looks like your path using a brush applied to it, and it’s a loose and wobbling brush tip, not following the centerline. The fill knows nothing about the brush tip and strictly follows the vector path, unlike brush.
To solve the problem, you’d either have to use a different brush and make the path look wobbly at the object level with other means, like Roughen effect, or expand the appearance of the objects and fix the fill manually.

Auto spell checker wants to capitalise new lines after forced line breaks
This is a bug report for the new auto spell checker feature in Illustrator 2020.
It does not understand that when you force a line break (using shift-return, not making a new paragraph with return), it’s not a new sentence.
So it wants to capitalise the first word on the new line.
This makes no sense and does not match the way it works in InDesign.
Thanks for fixing that!

Font Activation Not working in Illustrator 2020
I have repeatedly tried to activate fonts from Adobe Type with no success. It keeps showing as Activating. When I go to fonts.adobe.com it shows that the font is activated (Good Times Ultra Light) in the browser but in Illustrator it never shows the cloud with the checkmark. I have rebooted but still the same issue.

Background Save does not work
Background Save does not work in Illustrator unless very specific conditions are met (must be a PDF-compatible AI file). Many users prefer to work with PDF switched off - and background save should also work when saving the file as a PDF document. It's basically a half-finished feature and should work under all circumstances and conditions.

Stroke weight defaults to 10pts on oversized custom Artboard
If I create a new document one of the standard sizes, say Letter... then draw an object and apply a stroke... the stroke size defaults to 1pt as it should. However, if I define a new custom oversized artboard, say 500 inches square, then draw and object... when I apply the stroke, the size defaults to 10pts.

I can't save my ai file on my device.
I pay for a monthly plan for all adobe programs and all my work saves only on cloud and I don't have access to have my creative property on my computer. Why? Where do I need to find details about it and fix?

Transparent PNG exporting fine but gives black background when importing
I used Illustrator 24.1.1 to export transparent PNG images. I can use these images in other programs and as web images but when I want to use them in Illustrator again it opens with a black background. I've tried to copy and paste the images, I've tried to place it and even to open it and then drag it to my workspace. Nothing works. I'm using Windows 10.
