Brush palette inconsistent with Direct Selection Tool
I select a path drawn with the brush tool using Direct Select then click another brush. Sometimes the brush is applied to the path, sometimes it isn't, although the brush is shown to have changed as expected in the brush palette.
If the brush is not applied as described, when I deselect the path and select it again it reverts to showing the original brush.
I'm sure this has happened since the latest update (28.1, 64 bit, Win 10). I work with brush tool a lot and this is introducing a lot of irritation and wasted time to my projects.

Replace File doesn't work (creates new file)
I opened an EPS file, made changes, and then saved. When I saved I was alerted that the file already existed and asked if I wanted to replace the file. I selected Replace. However, Illustrator ignores my selection and creates a new file with '-01' amended onto the end of the file name.

Bug with the ' touch on AZERTY keyboard on AI 2024
Hi ! I recently came upon a but while typing text with a French AZERTY keyboard. Indeed touching the ' (apostrophe) symbol instead writes a < or > when entered. I thought at first it was a font problem, but after trying a few different ones wondered if if wasn't a keyboard language problem, but then i tried on AI 2023 and had no problem typing my text correctly.

Transform Pattern Tiles Checkbox in Settings resets after applying Transofm Effect in Appearance Panel
Hi there!
When you check "Transform Pattern Tiles" in Settings, and after that - edit or apply the Transform effect in the Appearance panel without checking "Transform Patterns" in the Transform Effect window (even if you are not editing a pattern fill), the "Transform Pattern Tiles" checkbox in Settings resets.You don't think about Patterns when you are editing not a pattern fill. So it's insanely inconvenient.

Top Bar Menu Items Stop Responding
Platform: macOS Sonoma 14.2.1 Illustrator: 28.1
While operating and working on a drawing portions of the Title Bar Menu no longer respond to clicks (File, Edit, Object, Type, Select, Effect, View Window) however the Illustrator and Help still respond.It was necessary to use keyboard shortcuts to save work and was necessary to quit and reload Illustrator and then load the file I was working on and the menu items now respond.
Has happened numerous times while working on recent drawings.
27 votesIt seems like this problem happens only for Mac Sonoma users...
Downgrading to a previous version of MacOS seems to be a viable workaround at the moment.
This is not a proposed solution though.
If this happens for you at earlier versions — please comment.

プラグインの初期化中に応答しなくなります
環境はWindows10。Illustrator (28.1)にアップデートしてから起動できないことが多くなりました。プラグインの初期化中に応答しなくなります。どのプラグインが影響を及ぼしているかは不明。初期状態から追加はしていません。またIllustratorの環境の変更もしていません。管理者として実行してもうまくいかないことが多いです。画像の画面で応答しなくなります。

Toolbar menus display only two rows at a time
I'm using Illustrator 28.0 on Windows 11 Professional, Lenovo ThinkPad laptop. Since the latest update, the toolbar menus show only two rows with the option to scroll up/down to see the other items (two at a time), which is very inconvenient. I've closed and restarted Illustrator, but no change to the interface.

Embedding linked EPS files in an over-sized artboard cause them to shrink to 10% and moves
When using an over-sized artboard, when I embed a linked .EPS - the .eps is scaled down to 10% of the original size AND it is moved to a seemingly random location on the artboard. This only happens with .EPS files. .AI and bitmap files are fine - they stay in the correct location and correct size.
