Speicherung ungenügend
Ich kann nicht mehr normal speichern, weder in Illustrator noch im Photoshop. Dort erscheint immer nur das schwarze Bild...ich muss Umwege gehen um speichern zu können.

Pattern fill pixelation
Zooming into an object filled with a pattern shows raster pixelation in the pattern. If you select the object and move it slightly or change its view, then the pattern is updated and looks vectored. This is annoying. I just want it to update and look clean when I am using the zoom tool.

Enter while typing does not get recorded in history as an Undo step
When I type a text in Illustrator and hit Enter to make a paragraph break, it does not get recorded into the history as an operation I can undo. This means all typed paragraphs get clumped in history together and get undone as a whole.
This is not how many other apps do, including InDesign and Word.
Some apps also consider line breaks as an interruption of flow, which would have been handy too.
It is quite similar to this report:
Illustrator does not treat the auto bullets as a separate Undo step

Click-drag fails... snaps back
Click-drag, click-opt (copy) drag, click-shift (constrained) drag fails... snaps back.
Click on object to drag it either with or without option and/or shift and sometimes it will fail and snap back to its original position.

Annoying Flickering Cursor when Photoshop is open
This is still an issue with the latest releases of Illustrator and Photoshop. We shouldn't have to close Photoshop to have the behavior disappear. See my screen capture today attached or on Box.com: https://nic.box.com/s/hemehrwzo9fm0ye3evst9ma41x908ipp

Giant splash screen ads in paid for, professional subscription is a BUG
I am sick to death of the huge, intrusive, non-cancelable, and occasionally completely incapacitating ads popping up in a very expensive, professional, enterprise-level paid-for subscription. This is so unbelievably unprofessional and unconscionable in a paid subscription.
I have been working for 10+ hours today in Illustrator and Photoshop, and have had several pop ups. But this one was the last straw. It nearly covered the whole screen. I can't close it and tell it never ask me this again, oh no, I can only request that it defer the annoying shill until the middle of another, future, equally tense deadline…

Plugin menu items in Select menu appear above saved selections without a divider
Plugins can add their own menu commands in different menus.
Specifically in Select menu, they get treated weirdly.Normally, without any plugins installed, the bottom of Select menu looks fine, like this:
Save Selection...
Edit Selection...
Update Selection ← this is a new command added recently
<end of menu>When at least one saved selection is added, Ai adds a horizontal separator and list saved selection under it:
Save Selection...
Edit Selection...
Update Selection
————————————————
My Amazing Selection
<end of menu>Again, descent.
But with plugins onboard it looks like the attached image.

Hidden clipping mask still contributes to exported image
I had a design with two clippings mask applied to it, for layout and previewing purposes.
When time to export a final image comes, I hide the top-level smaller one, and leave the larger one at the bottom to clip my design.But when I review the exported image, I realize Illustrator removed the some elements of the design, despite me seeing them on canvas. It took a live brush and deleted some parts of it even!
Take a look at the file attached.
1. Open it
2. Study the layer structure, notice a hidden clipping mask. Note the design…5 votes -
Illustrator Window Disappears after an attempted Windows 11 shutdown
Sometimes I forgot to save my file before I shut down my PC. When I attempt to shut down, the Interrupted Shut Down dialog opens, saying that Illustrator interrupts my shut down because I haven't save the file. However, when I click cancel to shut down, the illustrator window either froze or disappear and cannot be opened again. (Please find the attached video for the issue). This bug only happens to Illustrator and no other app.

File name resets when I switch to saving as a cloud document
I'm working on a file locally called filename_v01.ai and decide to create a new version.
I hit Save As, and change it to "filename_v02.ai"
Before hitting save in the same folder, I decide to save to cloud instead. I select "Save Cloud Document"
The Save to Creative Cloud window opens up. All is well except it has ignored my filename change - it's called "filename_v01.aic"
This happens in both directions and would be good to fix

Illustrator 2023 (27) Crashes When Moving/Dragging
All versions (27 on) have been crashing when I try to drag/move a group or selection of items. This seems to happen more when I am moving in small increments or if I'm zoomed in, but can happen when I am zoomed out and moving a larger distance as well. Any attempt to drag items from one area to another seems to cause a crash! I have been using Illustrator 27.2, on a 64GB M1 Max MacBook Pro, running Ventura 13.1. I use a Wacom Intuos Pro tablet that is updated to the latest drivers.

Snap to point
Why not have snap to point regardless of what magnification you're at. I'm sick of having to waste my precious time zooming right in to make sure object lines and points are snapped together and aligned properly.
This issue has been going on for a long time, and never gets fixed. I know others on forums have this issue as well...it's universal, not just me!
I do hope someone reads this and actually does something about this issue, but I'm not expecting anything to be honest, because you haven't bothered to fix it for a long time now.

Illustrator Freezing
Adobe Illustrator had been freezing for a week.
Mac OS Ventura
AI v 28.4.1When I go to Force Quit, it doesn't show it's not responding. I can't save or close files with Command+S or Command+W. When I right click and close from the dock, it crashes.
I can't reopen AI by clicking the icon in the doc or the Creative Suite app. The only way to get it to run is by going to my Folder and selecting an AI file to open. When is does reopen, it says it is recovering from a crash.

Letter "N" symbol instead of hyphen when hyphenation is activated
Hi,
We have a problem with a certain file. After first auto activation of a font, the hyphen character is replaced by a "N". When we then close the file, not Illustrator, so fonts stay active and simply reopen the file, the hyphen is displayed correctly.
We use Connect Fonts for fontmanagement, but apparently the problem is on the Adobe side (according to Extensis)
OS: Windows 11 and MacOS Sonoma (latest version)

v27.8.1 - Random files having images corrupted upon file save
Mac OS 13.5.1 / Illustrator 27.8.1 / Apple Studio M1 Max
After updating from 27.7 > 27.8.1 files saved in native .ai format (pdf compatibility) with embedded images are randomly becoming corrupted (does not happen to all documents). The files will open up in illustrator just fine, and appear normal, but the image preview and rasterizing into photoshop will show the included images with blank white space, or areas of garbled distortion. The corrupted files will also fail to process on our RIP. This has appeared on 2 different computers immediately following the update. This has been alleviated completely by…
5 votesThe released version 27.9 should have a fix for this issue. Please test it to make sure images don’t get corrupted anymore and reply back.
