Cmd-Shift-A selects all artboards
Cmd-Shift-A usually deselects all. But while the Artboard tool is selected, the same shortcut selects all… the same as pressing Cmd-A.

CMD+D issue...
I used to be able to copy and paste an object and then CMD+D to continue duplicating but it doesn't seem to work at all in Illustrator CC 2018...I downloaded CC 2017 again where it used to work, but it doesn't work with that either and doesn't even seem to be a feature anymore. Does anyone have any way to fix this? Thank you!

When clicked on file>export, the menus closes.
Operating System: MAC High Sierra
When clicking on export under FIle menu the menu closes, This is not expected as this might happen by mistake before the sub menu has opened.
This is also not consistent with photoshop file>export.
In photoshop when clicked on export menu under file, the menu will not get closed.1 vote -
CC 2018 line Mode
Not really sure (Im new to this program) How to describe this, But I'm sure it's not the norm.
Graph work on logo in line mode zoomed in.
I would also love to see a way to select multiple paths after creating them in the layers panel. One by one is tedious.

Cannot set tint percentage to C (cyan) value except by sliding cursor
Illustrator CC 2018
Windows 10If I want to set the tint value of a CMYK colour to the same percentage as the Cyan number (66 in the example below), my only option is to slide the cursor, because typing the value or raching the value with the keyboard arrows don't work.
This was already an issue with CS6, on both Mac and PC.

With multiple selection, you have to wait before clicking on key object
Illustrator CC 2018
Windows 10With a multiple selection, if the last object you click is the one you want to align to, you have to wait a little bit before re-clicking to set it as key object, otherwise it will go into Isolation mode or Symbol edition mode (if it's a Symbol).
1 voteYou can tweak the double click speed in Windows settings or disable 'Double Click To Isolate' option in Illustrator’s Preferences > General.

Scatter brush rotation orientation to line.
When using a scatter brush with rotation set to the line (not page) the vertical orientation will randomly flip. For instance, when I'm using the scatter brush to create a bush with stems and leaves pointing up (natural orientation), after creating the line and applying the scatter brush sometimes the brush will apply pointing down.

New Artboard Decimal Rounding
Illustrator 2015.3.1
Created a new document, set artboard to 3.375 x 2.125 with .125 inch bleed. Dialog box rounds to 2 decimal places as usual, but I expect that it honors the 3 decimal input. Save document as PDF, place into InDesign using Bleed box, am surprised to discover that document places at dimensions of 3.63 x 2.38.
Further testing shows that if I enter the proper dimensions with the artboard tool after creating the document, then it honors the 3 decimal places. So it is only the new document dialog that is actually rounding the dimensions.

Mac OS El Capitan 10.11.6As per video, when setting multiple objects with the same colour (Global or not) and then applying any Effect, there seems to be no Effect applied where it worked in previous versions of Illustrator. There also seems to be no effects sometimes on objects with different colours.

Colour changes on Multiple Objects in Color Panel issues
Illustrator 2018 CC 22.0.1
Mac OS El Capitan 10.11.6As per video, when trying to change colour of multiple objects in the Color Panel when colours aren’t set to Global, under CMYK settings I enter 0,0,0,0, hit Enter/Return on my keyboard, and nothing changes.
When the multiple objects all have colours that are set to Global, the Color Panel has other odd issues. Selecting CMYK, greyscale brings up no settings, but RGB, HSB does, though odd settings show up.

Color Panel changing multiple swatches issues
Illustrator 2018 CC 22.0.1
Mac OS El Capitan 10.11.6In the past using with CS5, I was able to select multiple swatches in the colour panel, double click, and then change properties such as “Global”. As per the video in AI CC 2018, I select multiple swatches, double click, and it only opens the panel for the colour I clicked on. I’m only able to change multiple colours by clicking on the Swatch Options.
I don’t know if this is a bug or a feature that was dropped, but it would be nice to have it back for more efficiency.

Artboard edge shows behind an object of the same size as the artboard
- CC 22.0.1 (32-bit)
- I'm creating a favicon, I started out at 164 px by 164 px and used Shift + Alt to resize it to 50 px by 50 px. Then I changed the size of the Artboard to 50 px by 50 px.
- I expected everything to line up and look right.
- A small white edge of the Artboard is visible on the right side of the drawing

Illustrator CC 18 freezing on macOS High Sierra
Ever since upgrading to 2018 Illustrator, it frequently freezes my entire screen after performing simple actions such as moving or rotating objects. Have had to hard-reboot my MacBook Pro 2016 (Touch Bar version) several times which is obviously not good for the system. This is not an issue with any of the other Adobe CC apps I have installed, Photoshop/InDesign/Premiere Pro etc. all work perfectly fine. Please resolve this ASAP - I rely on Illustrator for my work.

PDF does not preserve Illustrator editing capabilities!!
I upgraded two days ago to the new version of Illustrator. I've been saving PDFs with 'Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities' for years. Now when I do it, it's flattening the PDFs and not allowing editing as normal. It has totally ruined two of my complex files and I've lost hours of work.
Has anyone else had this problem or know of a fix?
So frustrating!
