No Rotate arrow for shapes
When creating shapes with the shape tool, the rotate arrow no longer shows up. If I click in the area where the rotate arrow would normally be, the shape will rotate and the rotate arrow then appears. Any other object other that shapes work as usual when rotating. I end up scaling objects trying to guess where the rotate arrow would be.

Messed preview when opening multiple files
Last file opened in Illustrator transforms the preview of all previous files to look like that last one I opened so I can not differentiate files because they all appear the same from tab to tab.

Bring back CS5 image trace controls and results, PLEASE!!
Over the years, each update in Adobe Illustrator has resulted in poorer trace results for complex line work. I specifically keep an old Mac so I can run CS5 just to trace. Please bring back the advanced controls CS5 had so illustrators such as myself can use the updated version of Adobe Illustrator to trace hand sketched work. I've attached a sample to show you results from CS5 trace and the current Adobe Illustrator.

I already found the problem. It happens with compound paths with a single anchor point is included.

Running an Action from script
Hello,
In Illustrator CC latest update, my following script does not work:
1- Select a couple paths (in script) (all of them close paths in different groups)
2- execute my action which offset paths with certain amountThe problem is in this new version after the action dis-select all of them except one, but before this version it worked and keep all of my selection paths still as selected ( by path I mean the new offset paths, but for all of them)

Switched to another application, Unable to Save on return
I initiated a Save, making a New Folder, switched out of Illustrator to Chrome to get a job number to add to the folder name, switched back and was unable to type in the new folder window, or press the Cancel or Save buttons, or use keyboard! Clicking around I noticed I could select type in the input text field in a screen position that was NOT where the input field was. I moved the new folder modal to where I could select type and I was then able to press the buttons! I must have moved the modal either…

Selections are automatically deselected after a few seconds
Lately, Illustrator will deselect anything I select with either the selection or direct selection tool (doesn't matter which one) and it makes for a very frustrating experience. Anyone have an idea to fix?

Static (not file related)
I am on a Windows 10, hp. I am not sure what is going on with my Illustrator. I've been using it pretty regularly. Recently it crashed. When I reopened it, there is now some kind of static at the top of the document. It doesn't matter what type of file is open. I have tried opening different Ai files or creating new ones and the static is still there. I have also tried uninstalling/reinstalling/updating etc. Nothing has helped. Every time I move the view or click around, the static moves. I can still work, but it's extremely distracting and…

Scrolling or zooming causes round Corner Widgets to get deselected
Steps to reproduce:
1. draw a rectangle
2. Use the mouse to select ONE of the corners' radius handle (the bullseye handle inside the corner)
3. Move the mouse wheel to pan (or zoom) a small distance.
4. The bug happens here! The corner radius handle is no longer selected, and dragging the handle now affects all four corners. This is no good if you want to have only one corner radiused. I only noticed this recently so I think it's a newly introduced problem.Panning or zooming should NOT affect the selections that the user has made.

Fonts not being listed in Illustrator when used in a clipping group with transparency effects
Adobe Illustrator CC 24.3. Windows 10 Pro 1909. OS Build 18363.1082
Converting fonts to outlines did not catch the ones used in a clipping group with transparency effects. The effect was an embossed look. When the fonts weren't activated for the file, the embossed look changed as it substituted a font, but Illustrator gave no warning and no fonts were listed in the "Find Fonts" panel. The font used in the emboss effect was listed when viewed in Acrobat but not Illustrator.

Font linking not working, basic functionality of Illustrator is impaired
1) Image describes it all. Nobody asked for Adobe Fonts, but if you have to do it please pull it off correctly. If it can't synchronize with mainstream operating systems like Windows 10, then what is the point? Professionals that have to use your software have no spare time to write obvious feedback like this.
2) I am working in a team that is dependent on a shared Illustrator asset library. It is not updating consistently and it makes life hard for a lot of people that are trying to do their work.
3) Certainly I am not the first…
