  3. iCloud drive

    Illustrator thinks links are gone when files are being stored in iCloud Drive (even though the cloud version is still in the same folder on my computer). Please allow Illustrator to download linked files in iCloud Drive automatically so I don't have to download and relink manually.

  6. Generally cumbersome, especially copying and pasting.

    Just a horrible program all together. Whatever happened to the Illustrator of days past? I think the program has become SO complex as it has "evolved" that it has become bogged down and quirky. Just to try to copy and paste a whole segment made up of multiple points is irritating. Why can't it paste a section, as opposed to just select segments of an object, when I choose the selection tool to do this. (I know not to use the direct selection tool for this).

    It is just SO cumbersome, and without a lot of the commands or nice…

  12. Disappearing Blinking Cursor

    This was previously listed as COMPLETED for "Dialog box text selection missing blinking cursor", but the fact is that this issue is STILL occurring.

    Can you all please fix this blinking cursor issue? This has been happening for a while now and it still hasn't been fixed. Some people have suggested that resetting the preferences fixes this issue, but resetting the preferences does NOT fix the issue.

    It seems to occur when you change the "User Interface" color to either the lightest grey or the 2nd to lightest grey (see attached file).

    When you change your User Interface to one…

  18. Can't see anything on screen except a lot of white and black horizontal lines.

    I have no clue why but if I open or create a new project, the screen goes full screen and a lot of white and black lines that are horizontal appear and i can not see any tools, buttons, anything. The links and buttons are still there but I cant see them.

  20. Align To mode gets changed from Align To Artboard to other modes on its own

    Over the past several Major updates to Illustrator, the Align to function's Default setting keeps getting changed. I prefer to have control over that. As all past versions of Illustrator have allowed. For me: Align to Artboard.

    With the last version capable of running on HIGH SIERRA it was BROKEN AGAIN !!!!

    Adobe's response is to buy a new computer.

    My feeling is Adobe should FIX that last High Sierra version.

    In the middle of a Pandemic/Economic uncertainty, this is not the time to screw customers.
