Links showing up when image is placed but not when file is opened
- macOS Sierra 10.12.6 and Illustrator 23.0.1 (and previously 23.0.0).
I've opened a client supplied illustrator pdf and it shows that all the links are missing. When I place that same file into a new artboard (instead of using file>open) it has all the links embedded and high resolution. I have restarted and updated illustrator with no change.

graph
When changing data in the graph data panel, it's changing the style of the graph itself. I'm used to the graph tool being rubbish, but this is now applying a gradient swatch to all the axis lines when it was previous set to no colour.

Customizable Toolbar - accidental change
Great, these tear-off custamizable toobars!
But when a tool is pressed long, it can be stacked to another tool by accident easily. Getting the icon back to the previous position is not as easy.
Should be nice if this can be done as easy ase stacking two tools.1 vote -
resizing
In Illustrator 2019, when resizing an object using the W value and the H value it does not resize symmetrically keeping it centered on the xy axis like all previous versions. This is something I have relied on to keep everything centered within that shape or object. Why did this change or is it a preference that I need to select?

Box Tool not in Inches and making weird shapes
I'm trying to make specific size boxes in INCHES with my box tool. But it's only coming up in points and when I do make a box, it makes it a trapezoid shape. This new Illustrator 2019 is so buggy, it's not even funny!

Illustrator will not let me align my art manually
I am working a normal piece(s) of art. I did one exactly like this yesterday on the same artboards, different client. I am unable to manually align the art to the artboard or the bleed guides as shown first image. I decided to shutdown Illustrator and the PC and then start them again. When opened I tried to move the art again and it still will not let me align the art. I disposed of the art on the artboard. Opened the clients art, copied it and pasted it in my layers to the artboard. Again I tried to manually…

Compound shape bounding box issues

A compound shape of multiple objects should be acting as a single object so its bounding box should maintan the same (as group's does) but it keeps resetting after any rotation.

update
Come on now! I am in AI and open a file to work on when a popup appears telling me that a new version of AI is available. However, when the update 'button' is selected nothing happens! There used to be a check for updates under Help yet that does not exist anymore. When it did exist it worked. So what is gong on now? More frustration with AI!

Illustrator v23.0.1 will not open files from the desktop action. Must open via Open Menu.
I'm having a minor problem opening AI files from the desktop with this new version. It won't show the document, and only shows the launch screen, and there I see the icon for my document, but even when clicking on that it won't load. I have to quit AI, relaunch and from there open my document via Illustrator's Open menu.

PDF export no longer represents brushes used correctly
I have used some vector brushes in illustrato (see highlights). When file saved as a pdf the brushes no longer correctly represent what's in the file, they seem to lose a lot of their transparency. I sell the mentioned brushes on exchange (HighlightsandShadows Brushes) as well so I would like this fixed. Both viewing the pdf file and opening in ai show the wrong results.
This problem has occurred since upgrading both mac os and illustrator to latestHowever if i open the ai file in shop it looks as it should.

SVG text export inconsistent failure 23.0.1
On SVG export, one text node receives ID as expected, the other is wrapped in a <g> and given the id that should be on the text node (which has no id).
I don't know how to produce this result—it's happening intermittently in a large existing file. I was only able to whittle it down to an example, but this system won't let me attach an illustrator file (lol)

New update is distorting character text
I'm running Mac Mojave 10.14.1, and downloaded the latest CC 2019 update. I have used a paid for monogram font in illustrator for over 5 years with no issues until this recent download. Now there are distortions in several areas... Is there a fix for this??

Cannot scale item directly after placing...
When I place either a file or library item by dragging onto the artboard, I cannot scale that item (via double-click on scale tool). It does not apply the transformation. I have to repeat the transformation in order to get it to apply. This does not happen however if I place an item through the file menu. See attached video.

Randomly deletes recent changes.
Latest version is extremely buggy. Randomly jumps back two steps in the undo queue, erasing entirely all work. Redo does not work.
