Transform Each for groups
Transform Each currently rotates multiple groups around a common center point, counter intuitive to what the name implies. Does what the name says when used on vectors.

Make it usable on ipad - Draw is extremely inferior
Adobe Draw is an inferior product to Illustrator. The promise of creating vector art and moving it to Illustrator only works about half the time and you do not have the ability to interact (select manipulate etc) individual objects. I am sure that it is complicated to make a desktop software work on an ipad but honestly, I am a bit confused as to why this does not exist. My computer has way less space than my ipad pro. It also allows me to plug a tablet in and use a stylus throughout illustrator to do whatever I want. I…

Issues running Illustrator 23.0.4 and OS Mojave 10.14.5 on a Mac
- Every time I move the cursor, instead of moving it it acts as if I had clicked and dragged, selecting an imaginary area.
- When I try to select an item, the cursor will not do it, so I click twice, then three times, and then - it finally selects, and sometimes catches up with a delay, clicking the second and third time and mucking the selection. I have reinstalled illustrator and went to the apple store to reinstall the OS, with no resolution. The system runs ok with other applications, shows issues with Photoshop as well and is slows when…

Please bring the basic brush back.
Please can you bring back basic brush where I can draw from the scratch without using the rounded paint brush? I used to to be able to do that.

Data Recovery
There's a weird glitch happening where it's like 'recovering data' ONLY once I start typing - and it keeps inserting an image I have previously deleted.
It's also giving me warnings when I open the document about it - I've tried 'ignore' I've tried to replace the file. Nothing makes a difference, it keeps randomly inserting the image again when I type.
I tried setting it aside, thinking it would only do it once... no, it will keep inserting more and more if I keep typing.

Double-click open ai file results in error but dragging in works
When in Windows Explorer I double-click to open the ai file but results in error: "Illustrator can't open the illustration. There is not enough room for the window..."
However when I drag and drop the file into Illustrator it opens no problem.
This error started happening in the last few days.
Please advise.

Numeric Entry into Control bar measurements sometimes trigger move dialogue instead of behaving correctly
macOS Mojave 10.14.4
Illustrator 23.0.4 and also previous versions
On the control bar I type a numeric entry in the object's width field, expecting to enter the width in the field on hitting enter.
Instead the Move dialogue opens on hitting enter. (this result also intermittently happens with other numeric fields in the control bar).

Panels float on top until I click them
Sometimes all panels get "always on top'' state. To change this, you need to mouse click each panel.

Buggy lines from tool windows
When I expand some tool windows to the work area the drop shadow from the window remains when the window is closed. This shadow is persistent when I close Illustrator and it is seen over all programs and desktop. It even persists when I restart explorer.
The only pattern I seem to find is that it only appears with the toolwindows popping up from the "More options" buttons.
Is it possible this is problem with Illustrator itself of should I search elsewhere for a solution? I have never had this problem before with any other software after year and years…

Improve Large Complex File Handling
Performance with large files is sluggish & frequently enters the "Not Responding" state. This wastes my time & causes frustration. Files with this behavior include those with many linked or embedded images or complex vector graphics such as expanded brush strokes. However, I cannot find an explanation for this slowness. During these periods, my total RAM usage does not go above 40% & CPU usage does not go above 20%. GPU usage spikes to 100% occasionally but quickly returns to near 0% so this does not seem to be the cause. Opening & saving files takes a very long time…

tools & palette windows keep blipping in and out
Every other click, all of my palettes that I have open will blip off, then I have to click somewhere on the document to get them to blip back up again. Every. Other. Click! How can anyone draw with this going on?
Coworkers and I all working on same IMacs with most recent OS Mojave and just updated to 23.0.4 this morning and its still happening. Please fix it.
Far and away, I have been using Illustrator since 2.0, seriously, and it just gets less and less reliable with every update. Very disappointing.

Characters in Type on a Path appear rotated
When trying to type on a path around a circle, the preview shows the letters rotating abnormally, but when converting the text to outlines or printing the type, it corrects itself. Would be fine, but I can't design what I need without the preview first.

X and Y in values in the transform don’t reflect the position of 2x identical boxes, -they are in obviously different position on alert boar
X and Y in values in the transform don’t reflect the position of 2x identical boxes, -they are in obviously different position on the art board...the reading is incorrect. It’s up to me to manually manage the alignment. I tried using ALIGN, The align option is useless. I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR AGES. I always trusted the the NUMBERS, BUT NOT LATELY. The X and Y readings in transform are NOT TO BE TRUSTED. Hence great stress. Please FIX the BUG. LOST MY FAITH ..., I wish I could go Back to OLD BUT STABE CS6...CS6, CS6*. …
