First colour value should be highlighted by default
When SHIFT-clicking the colour swatch to bring up the Alternate Colour UI, the first selectable value should be automatically highlighted so that I can type a value in without having to first focus on the entry field with either a mouse click of by hit the TAB key.
A near identical request as this one I recall from a while back:
The UI should operate this way by default for any pop-up type dialog/panel.

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.
All plugin items are placed under the…4 votes -
Pressing Numpad Enter no longer commits editing a note for an object in 27.6.1
In previous version hitting Numpad Enter in the Note filed in the Attributes panel would have commit the changes into the field (while the main Enter created a new line). In 27.6.1 it’s not longer working, hitting Numpad Enter does not do anything — even create a new line. It should work and commit changes :(
Steps:
1. Open Attributes panel
2. In the panel’s flyout menu choose Show Note
3. Create any object, keep it selected
4. Put the cursor in the Note field in Attributes panel and type anything
5. Press Numpad EnterExpected: editing should end

Illustrator window moves behind all other windows when you reposition the frame
When selecting a window in Illustrator it immediately falls to the background as I move it around. VERY obnoxious.. this is also happening in Photoshop.

need to fix control handles
Handles have been broken for about 10 years now, time to fix them.
Clicking on corner tool handle, making stuff rotate, trying to stretch one direction, then it stretching diagonally.Things like that should not be going wrong in software as old as illustrator.

New Document Window issues
Illustrator 25.2.3 64bit
Windows 10Newest version of illustrator, on the New Document window, you can no long select and highlight any of the form fields with a mouse click and drag.
Also for a long time i have been frustrated with the tabbing order of width > Units > height. when it really needs to be width > height > units
People rarely change their units, and it's just an annoying extra tab when you have to do this 100 times a day.
Thank you

Illustrator 25.0.0 breaks metric units when working under custom created workspace
When I create custom workspace and want to make new object, and when I type dimensions in the dialog box, Illustrator breaks dimensions, e.g. 250 mm becomes 250.5 or 250.06 or 249.999 or else. This also happens when I open previously created documents with exact dimensions, e.g its dimensions become broken.
Note that this is happening only with custom workspaces created, and the problem persists even if I switch back to the default workspace. The only working solution is reinstalling Illustrator and working under any of the default workspaces, which is driving me nuts. Please fix it.

Window auto scrolling
When opening Illustrator the file auto moves to the right at a slow pace. When hitting Shift it jumps - it only stay still if the mouse is off the application. The art won't stay steady on screen.

Using shortcut adds icon to toolbar
Hi,
I want to have customized toolbars that only show the tools I've specified. However, when I select a tool via a shortcut, e.g V for Selection Tool, that icon is then added to my custom toolbars. Very frustrating and distracting.

Toggling outline view should not modify file
When toggling Preview/Outline mode, the current file behaves as though a modification was made, even though nothing appears in the Undo history.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open an existing AI file
2. Go to "View" menu
3. Select "Outline" (or "Preview", if the file was saved whilst in Outline view)
4. Go to "Undo" menu
5. Notice there's nothing to undoThis is only a nitpick, but it's been gnawing at me for a while.
