Please Make Adobe App shortcuts compatible with Security/Adware/Antivirus software
I suddenly was seeing the "Space Bar Won't enable Hand Tool" problem that's been a plague for years. A few weeks ago, I installed AdGuard for Safari and Mac. I've been happy with it's ad blocking - but this was the culprit for the problem of the Space Bar not invoking the Hand Too, AND for Command+Space not invoking zoom. I've turned off the helpful ad blocker, and I can use my Adobe Apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign were all affected).
After all these years, PLEASE fix these apps so that our computers can remain usable and safe while still having…1 vote -

Update didn't update Recovery folder location resulting in data loss
I just lost a bunch of work because Illustrator hadn't updated the DataRecovery folder location when it upgraded. When I went to preferences, the location was set to a non-existent folder which had been the default location for a version 23 but had been removed by the update to version 24. This is a huge oversight and needs to be corrected. To be clear, I had not set this location manually, although I have now set the location to the default folder for version 24 (which did exist, but no files). This location needs to update automatically with updates, even…

***** / skew / tilt angle disappear
when I transform an object the rotation angle remains visible in the transformation panel while that the inclination angle disappears ... why? it's very frustrating ...
In InDesign this is possible and correct .... not in illustrator.It is not possible to reset or reproduce the angle of inclination on another object.

How to stop illustrator from smoothing scatter brush
Hello
I'm using Illustrator 2020 (24.0.1) on a macbook pro 2014.I'm having issues with the scatter brushes.
The lines that are drawn don't follow the curve that they're applied to.
They come out by segment, roughly following the curve.This issue has been already described in this adobe forum thread:
https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator/how-to-stop-illustrator-from-smoothing-scatter-brush/m-p/10832098#M160067Is this a bug, and has it been addressed?

Math in Picas is Using Points not Picas
Document units set to picas. In width or height box on tool bar, enter "-3" and it subtracts 3 points. I expect — as it has done since time and eternity — to subtract 3 picas. The number should be the whole version of the document units, not a fraction thereof.

Gradient, colouring and effect-error
The operations weren't particularly complex, a shape won't change fill between gradient, colour or even empty. The appearance panel is empty, and still there's no possible to change or remove the fill. I tried adding a gaussian blur, after which the entire figure disappeared. I thought it might be a preview issue so I exported it, but it was gone there as well. I attach a screenshot. Right before it happened I tried adding a complex clipping mask (but undid it).

App freezes or doesn’t render artboard if second monitor gets unplugged
Both Ps and Ai malfunction when using a second monitor.
Problem: when either application is open and I shut off, unplug 2nd monitor or close laptop with 2nd monitor still plugged in, the next time I am in either app the files I have open are frozen. Or when I open a new file there is no artboard shown.
The only resolve is to restart the program.1 vote -
