Delayed mouse movements when rulers are on
I have just switched from a PC to a Macbook Pro 15.
I never experienced any issues on my PC in the last 2 years of work, but since I started to work on the Macbook I noticed that the my mouse/trackpad movements were being delayed (feeling sluggish) when I had rulers on. I later noticed that this issue is present throughout Photoshop and InDesign as well.I tried community recommended fixes such as turning off dictation and disabling "Scale Cursor Proportionally", and none of it has worked.
While I can have smooth mouse movements with rulers off, scrolling/navigating through…

Slow Mouse & shaking Cursor
Slow Mouse & shaking Cursor on Canvas.
Please remove this bug which is on illustrator since a long time (perhaps 2014/2015 version or before :/ ). It would be time to give a better UX on it because it's really boring.

AI 2019 is not using Intel UHD 630 for HW acceleration
We are using AI 2019 or multiple devices, two of them are Mac Mini 2018s with intel 6-core core i5/i7 and UHD 630. One of them has eGPU RX 580 8GB. While AI recognizes GPUs on both Minis, it shows UHD 630 on the one without eGPU and RX 580 on the one with eGPU, it does not seem to use the UHD 630. I tried to use multiple kinds of hardware monitoring software, but the UHD 630 is not being used at all and the performance is terrible. While RX 580 on the other mac is heavily utilized, often…

Multiple crashes daily
The current version of Illustrator is absolutely useless. Does Adobe bother testing their own product for bugs? I experience multiple crashes daily at my job, when all I have open is one file. Something as simple as deleting a square will crash the program. It's infuriating.

Illustrator won't let me toggle lock or visibility
I'm having trouble with adobe illustrator. It won't allow me to use the toggle lock/unlock or the toggle visibility function. I've tried closing and starting the program up again. I've even attempted to work from a different computer. Nothing I have done has helped and the bug always reappears after a few seconds. Is there a way I can correct this bug?

Illustrator underperforming on Mojave
Since updating to Mojave, Illustrator is sluggish at best. Moving a page activates the spinning wheel every time before moving the page. Almost unusable for work.
I am using the latest version of CS suite, Illustrator and Mojave.

Keyboard shortcut for Offset path changes automatically
I use offset path a lot in my work, so I have set a keyboard shortcut for it. cmd+shft+Å. This has worked always, until now.
Now I cant even see the Obejct - Path - Offset path in keyboard shortcut setting panel. Still I see that this function has a shortcut, but not the one I have set. See pictures.
Now I noticed, that system changes the keyboard setting that i've made to Effect - Path - Offset path.
Is thee a way around, or is this something that I'll need to wait to be fixed?

Sometimes saving the document (command-s) causes it to revert a few steps back. WHAT? What is going on with all this weirdness!

slow choppy zoom on PC
whether I use the zoom tool or key combo/scroll, zoom in or out takes between about a full second to multiple seconds. makes it very hard to control. this seems to happen regardless of the document complexity. Photoshop and XD zoom well.
this PC got a fresh Windows 10 install a month ago, then Illustrator was installed for the first time. this has been an issue since then.
I've tried GPU Performance preference on and off.
I've uninstalled, cleaned, re-installed Illustrator a few times since then.
I've reset preferences.Illustrator 23.0.1

MBP 2018 - GPU render, performance extremely slow
macOS Mojave 10.14.2, Illustrator 23.0.1
Performance on MBP 2018 (32GB) is extremely low, even on simple compositions. Working with graphic with active effect 'Drop Shadow' is almost impossible. I have feeling like working od PC from 2008. In outline mode works much better.
On PC (i7 8700, gtx 1060) the same composition works like a charm.

Pathfinder Actions not properly saving in Illustrator CC 2019
Every time after I close and open Illustrator I have to edit my actions all over again. I've set all Pathfinder options to expand when being performed. They work while I'm in the session, when I open the software the next day I have to re-set them to do the same, otherwise they all act as if they're Unite and don't even perform the proper action. I've moved them out of the default folder and into a custom folder - still keep doing that. Slows down work a lot.

Crash on "Missing Font" screen
Illustrator app will become unresponsive or non-functional at all, when there's a missing font window. and the missing font window is just blank, without anything. The only option is to go to my Windows task manager and close it by forcing quitting. This is latest version of Illustrator x86 app for Windows 10.

Fonts issue
Illustrator often hangs on large documents. The same document outlined opens fast with no issues. There is something going on with fonts in 23.0.1 - Photoshop also has problems with fonts. I'm on a Windows 10 Pro.

Problems with 2019 Adobe CC Illustrator when upgrading to the Mojave OS system
