Area Type Text with Vertical Alignment Breaks in CC Libraries
It seems if I set an Area Type box to Accent and apply Center Vertical Alignment in the Area Type Options that the text will break up (perhaps by kerning pairs?) once reopened.
The Area Type text is gone and it's broken up point type.
If I were to use a standard Area Type box (Baseline: Em Box Height; Vertical Alignment: Top), there's no issue, and the text remains editable as Area Type.

Illustrator 2020 24.3 Extremely slow performance and lagging on Windows 10
Extremely slow performance and lagging making Illustrator unusable under win 10 pro. Massive lag (sometimes 10 sec) when moving, selecting, objects or zooming, sometimes when selecting tools.
I had v23.4 installed on the same machine with Win 7 a week ago and had no issues. New install of Windows 10 with the same version of illustrator is unusable even though my machine spec is above requirements and has no other issues.
I've installed the previous version of illustrator to test but had the same performance issues.
All drivers updated, and ran through performance troubleshooting in adobe support pages.

Save as .ai can be interrupted by another save
If you are working on a new document, or opened an EPS or PDF, hit save as .ai and it does the background save, if you dont wait or dont realize it isnt finished, and try to save as PDF by way of example, the first save will not complete (ever) and this may result in a loss of data. Very reproducible

Pixel Preview distorts text at 100 and 50% in CC 2020 (and 2020 beta)
When Preferences > Display Print Size at 100% Zoom is checked Pixel Preview gives a distorted (and wrong size) preview.
This does not happen in CC 2019
Create some text.
Zoom to 100%
Turn on Pixel Preview
Result > the view percentage changes to 126,87%
Zooming out to 100% or 50% shows very distorted text.
This does not happen in CC 2019 (see attached image).3 votes -
direct selection tool causes broken anchor points to snap to same angle???
Since 24.3 the direct selection tool causes absolutely unwanted snapping of broken anchor points while moving one of the anchor points. That's absolutely wired and stops any workflow. Please fix this quickly again!

Illustrator not deleting .tmp files after upgrades to Catalina
We've recently started upgrading our users to Catalina, and since then multiple people have reported Illustrator is creating .tmp files that can't be deleted. We've turned off Save in Background, Export in Background, optimize saving for slow networks, and Saving Cloud documents. The issue seems to be intermittent, we haven't been able to find a pattern.
When it makes these files, they can't be deleted in Finder.

Very high latency/lag/delay with basic operations
I am using a wacom cintiq pro 24HD and a thinkpad P1 running the Win10 pro for workstations (2004 build). All my drivers are up to date. I am running the latest build of illustrator (v 24.3).
There's very high lag with basic move / resize operations (1-2 seconds) both with and without using the cintiq. + pen.
With the rotate and reflect tools, the lag is up to 4 minutes if i'm using the wacom, and it's still 1-2s without.
Please help, this has been an issue over the last few releases of illustrator and it doesn't seem to…

Asset export password bug 24.2.3
Illustrator info: 24.2.3 (64bit)
System info:
Windows 10Steps:
If I export artboards to pdf using the asset export window - each file will be password protected without me specifying it.This only happens if the last pdf I saved manualy (using save as) was password protected. Asset export will use the same password that I entered for this file.
This would be a nice feature if it was an option you could select or de select, but not when it happens without informing me.
The only workaround I know of, is to save a dummy pdf with the correct…

Expanding simple paths autogenerates dozens of unnecessary Bezier points
Drawing 2 overlapping shapes or paths (or shapes expanded from paths) could once be reliably split/trimmed/etc. cleanly using Pathfinder tools.
Currently, doing so autogenerates dozens of unnecessary Bezier points. This can be cleaned up using the Smooth tool, but becomes a tedious process, especially given that the same cleaned shape will behave the same way if Pathfinder is used again.
This is a critical part of my workflow that's become substantially disrupted by whatever change was made under the hood in the past 6 years.
My hope is that with the change to other drawing tools, this is a preference…

GPU Performance is deeply broken - UI overlay refresh issue
Within about 20-30 min of starting illustrator with GPU Performance enabled, everything goes haywire.
It seems to be an issue with UI overlays such as art board bounding boxes and shape paths/points. As you pan about or adjust a shape, it seems that old overlays are not disposed and new overlays are just drawn on top resulting in layers and layers of overlays. The overlays are cleared if you zoom but when you start to pan or manipulate shapes again, the overlays continue to populate on screen.
Images attached should illustrate the issue better then I can describe it. What…

'Edit Color Group' does not respect global or spot color swatches.
The 'edit color group' tool is a neat little palette explorer, but in practice I never use it because my workflow is centered around global swatches, and it completely ignores that.
Try this:
- Make a few global color swatches. Draw some shapes using them.
- Double-click on one of those swatches, play with the sliders, notice that everything drawn in it changes to match.
- Make those swatches into a color group.
- Select the color group and hit the 'Edit Color Group' button in the Swatches palette.
- Change some colors, hit OK, yes you do want to save your changes to the…
