Unable to retain the last active artboard on switching from another file
This is related to this issue here, though I'm unable to vote or comment on it. So I'm reposting this issue, because it's still annoying.
When I ⌘+Tilde (~), on certain documents (the setting seems to be saved to a document), it automatically Fits Artboard to Screen on the last artboard of the document. It is confusing, and annoying, and interrupts workflows where I need to move quickly between artboards. Please fix this.

SVG properties settings reset with software update
We use custom settings in the SVG properties window when we save images as SVGs. When I install an illustrator update, it wipes out my custom settings and replaces them with the default settings.

Items inside of clipping masks do not get recolored like they used to using the Recolor tool. You have to directly select them now and manually recolor.

Serious performance lag on 23.0.6
Serious performance lag on 23.0.6
Just updated to 23.0.6 I am on an imac 3.6ghz i9 with 64gb ram. I would click on a block of text and delete - there would be a long pause, beach ball, block deletes, pause, back to work. GPU vs CPU view didn't make a difference. I switched back to 23.0.5 and everything is fine.

Cannot double click to open an AI document, or open a smart object from Photoshop
If Illustrator is closed, I can double-click on a file name, or a smart object in photoshop, and the file will open in Illustrator. If Illustrator is open this is not possible. My workaround has been to open the file from within Illustrator (tedious, but doable). However, there is no workaround to open a photoshop smart object. So I literally have to close Illustrator each and every time I want to open and edit a smart object. At first I thought this had to do with having objects on the clipboard, but even after clearing the clipboard this is still…

Blob Brush Crash Problem
I'm using Microsoft Surface Pro, Windows 10, Ram 8GB, processor intel i5, 2.40GHz.
Illustrator CC 23.0.2
When I use Blob Brush with a size set to variate depending on pressure, Illustrator crashes all the time. It's not a heavy file, I'm working on really simple illustrations. I have just updated to the newest version but the problem persists. Any ideas whether the fault is in Illustrator or my machine just can't handle a simple blob brush?4 votes -
performance lag
panning around canvas is very slow, not fast as it should be.
Viewing file in outline line mode and then switching back seems to fix until a new document is opened and then software slows down again.
Hopefully will be fixed with an update.1 vote -
Touch gestures stop working after using pen
When I start Illustrator the finger gestures (two finger pinch etc.) work fine. After touching the screen with stylus, gestures stop working until restart. AI 23.0.6/Windows 10 1903/stylus AES on Lenovo Yoga

Why can't you use negative numbers in Move transform panel?
This is such a bizarre bug. Sometimes the panel will come in with negative numbers already in there (based on a previous move by hand in the program?) But make any adjustment and the number turns positive. I can work around it using reflect tool but it shouldn't require such an extra work around.

Illustrator cc 2018 Quits
Illustrator cc 2018 quits unexpectedly multiple times when i try to use it. I tried to reset it, but no luck. I am wondering if there is a bug or something in the program that stops me from using it.

Gaussian Blur Bug
When applying gaussian blur to a shape, the effect looks "pixely" in various zoom percentages. The screenshot shows 100% and it does not look right. If I zoom in to 150% it looks fine, but at 200% it looks strange again. This did not happen in CC 2018.
Can we get this fixed? Thanks!

Gardient tool preview useless render
Gradient tool prompts a render dialog every time it is used since the CC2019 versions. Latest Vers did not bring any improvement. Any time I drag on a gradient or apply one, I get up to 25 sec of render preview dialog box but for WHAT please. Anyone else?

Rotation Handle Tolerance overrides scale and selection functionality while using Wacom.
Hiya. I have an issue with the Selection tool and the rotation handle functionality overriding both scale and shift+selection of other objects while using a Wacom.
Essentially, the rotation functionality tolerance seems to be 2-3 times higher than when using a mouse, which means that I have to zoom in far in order to either scale or select a nearby object.
This behaviour has been in every version of Illustrator since the original Illustrator CC - which behaved flawlessly.
I've also had it occur on 2 different computers with 2 different Wacom devices (Intuous 5 and Cintiq 13HD) and multiple…
