Window snaps out of view when switching from external monitor
MBP, OSX Mojave, when using an external monitor with the laptop screen closed everything is cool, unplug the laptop and use built in screen everything is cool.
Once I plug the laptop back into the external monitor with the lid closed AI will snap off screen someplace.
If I use the mission control gesture (swipe up with 3 fingers) the window appears and I can drag it to another desktop, but then it assumes the same position off screen on the new desktop.
The only workaround I have found is to unplug the monitor, resize the window and then plug…

Missing fonts issue
It's not reading Adobe fonts. It keeps saying to activate the font every time I open a document. The program hangs trying to activate a font, making the file not work properly "without" a font that was perviously activated.

Problem with Simbraille Font in Illustrator when trying to Save As a PDF.
Problem with Simbraille Font in Illustrator when trying to Save As a PDF.
In Illustrator, I use the Type Tool to create the letter "a" using the SIMBRAILLE font. It appears correctly in Illustrator. Dot 1 is larger than dots 2,3,4,5 and 6. This is the effect I want. (I am creating special flash cards to use with a student at school). When I am done saving my file (I have the Braille cell, and the corresponding character beneath on a second layer... depicting the letter "a" is a different font (calibre regular), and the above are against my background…1 vote -
Svg export
Hi! I met with you at CreativePro conference in Seattle. I would like to see more control when exporting svg from Illustrator. More specifically, the ability to remove the title tag when exporting. If not, that's ok, the svgomg site cleans up svg code well. Thank you!
2 votesHi Beth,
Thanks a lot for reporting the issue here. We are currently looking into when we write add the title element and when we don’t.
For more context: The problem you mentioned at CPro was the tool tip that shows up when hovering the mouse above an -embedded SVG document.
Greetings,

Cutting out parts of the exported PNG
Exporting "saveforweb" PNG cut all the logos a few pixels in.
P.S. ever since CC was released (and started renting out your software) the quality went down, your software doesnt work well with macos catalina. BOOOOOOO Adobe. BOOOOOOOO.
Money hungry sons-a-*******.

Keep transparency of raster images is copied / pasted / drag-n-dropped
I have, let's say, image with background erased. I want to copy it from PS and paste into AI, intending opacity to be kept, but NO, you get opaque image.
I don't care who is in charge for this, you or PS team, just get it done already.
Same applies to PNGs from a browser.

slow cursor on second monitor when using Adobe Illustrator - only while using Ai
When I used illustrator on my second monitor, the mouse cursor is astoundingly slow and a reduced range across the screen. This only happens when I use illustrator, not other applications. I am using a macOS Mohave 10.14.5 (18F132) and am connecting to my monitor with an HDMI using an HDMI/USB adapter for my laptop.
This costs me in time and efficiency at my job, as I'm sure it does for other people, who have posted similar complaints on adobe forums. Please fix it!

Moving an artboard using the Artboard Tool moves non-overlapping paths and shapes in adjacent artboards
Moving an artboard should only move paths and shapes within the artboard and paths and shapes overlapped from other artboards. If possible, overlapped paths and shapes should only move if a majority is in the selected artboard.

UI Panels not rendering with Catalina update
The panels in the user interface for both Illustrator and Photoshop have started not rendering properly (aka disappearing) both for the document panel and for workspace panels the ever since upgrading to Catalina on Mac. This most commonly happens when pressing "F" to switch between document views. Other times when switching from another application to the Illustrator or Photoshop window, the entire document disappears despite the Window dropdown menu saying it is open.
I have contacted Adobe Customer Support and they have continually told me to delete my preference files (Illustrator) or turn on/off Legacy compositing (Photoshop). Despite doing these,…

Illustrator slow on Retina display
Hi,
Adobe Illustrator is running slow/lagging on a Retina display (Zooming, using overprint preview). Doing the same operations when the document is located on an external monitor (Dell, no hdpi), all works well.
I've tried switching between GPU/CPU rendering, disabling animated zoom, removing the preferences, ... without any luck.
Does anyone have any idea's on how to solve this?
I'm using a MacBook Pro, 16GB RAM, Radeon Pro 450 2048MB...
Thanks

PDF Import Problem
Opening a PDF in Illustrator 2019 23.1.1 - I select which page I want to open eg. 2 of 2, and it only opens the first page (not the page I wanted). No I'm not inputing the page numbers in the preview page panel (just in case you think that I am).
Import PDF pages as links is 'unchecked'.
Troubleshooting:
1) It works correctly if I open 'all' page with 'links checked'.
2) It works correctly if I open 'all' pages with 'links unchecked'.2 votes -
Character/Paragraph panels - lazy and/or incorrect updating
Illustrator 23.0.3 on Win10
It is vitally important to me that the Character and Paragraph panels tell me the truth at all times: an accurate description of the properties in play based on the selected text or the cursor position if nothing is selected.
I constantly run into the problem where I select a line of text and the 'space before' and 'space after' controls in the Paragraph panel are completely wrong. Clicking the up/down arrows on the controls will change the displayed (wrong) value, and the text will suddenly leap to god-knows-where, rather than the desired "up or down…
