High Sierra drag/drop/copy/paste issues
Drag/drop/copy/paste lags, doesn't work in Illustrator 21.1.0. Everything (click/drag/copy/copy/paste) is so slow that it doesn't appear to work. Even something as simple as Help/About fails.

With "Snap to Point" on, the cursor doesn't change colour to indicate a snap to anchor will occur
I just switched to AI 2017 from AI 2015 and i'm noticing this straight away. In preview mode and artwork modes. Turning on Smart Guides helps in some situations but in other cases it fails to identify a Snap when an anchor is around. Snap to Point should work independently of Smart Guides anyhow.
Massively annoying.

画像トレースのパスが粗すぎる
手書きの線画を画像トレースで取り込む時、パスが粗すぎて手書きのニュアンスが消えてしまいます。
以前のバージョンまでは、細かくトレースされていました。
イラスト制作が主な仕事なのですが、仕事に使用する上で致命的な欠点です。
仕方がないので、まだ以前のバージョンを使用しています。

Pencil tool now smooths way to much, ignores details
Please enable the former way of working with the pencil tool again.
The tool now smoothes far too much on its own, even when set to "smooth as little as possible", it is now really inaccurate, small movements are ignored.
Real free drawing is no longer possible , that is making this wonderful, intuitive tool partially unusable. Only roughly usable for creating character designs, for example. where we need tiny details. Such a shame.3 votes -

Center of rotation changes position after rotating with a dialog
Trying to rotate a path from a custom rotation location by entering the rotation as a value, not manually.
I'd expect that you can rotate from any given position by entering rotational values. As it is, your selected rotation position will instead default to center.
When you select a custom position to rotate a shape from, it only works if you manually rotate the object. You can't select a custom position and then type in a rotational value via enter or double-clicking on the rotate tool.

直線ツールで線を描画してから、線の色をコード入力すると白になる
（１）塗りと線の色指定をともに「なし」の状態にする。
（２）直線ツールで線を描画する。
（３）（２）の描画後（線が選択された状態で）線の色のメニューをダブルクリックすると、「カラーピッカー」のメニューが表示される。
（４）（３）で表示されたカラーピッカーの色コード（＃）の箇所に、黒のコード「000000」を手入力すると、線が黒にならずに「FFFFFF」の白になってしまう。3 votes -
Image Trace (Make and Expand) has changed default settings
When following the Object>Image Trace>Make and Expand, the action used to just convert the image to a black and white cutout, but since the last update it's changed to "logo" preset like in the advanced settings. Now I have to enter the advanced settings every time to use the black and white option, rendering the menu option useless, and taking a few extra steps to get the result I want. Is there a way to change it back to the old settings? Or actually be able to choose what the default setting in the menu option is?

White Lines After Using Image Crop
I am running into an error when I go to crop an image. The original image does not contain any white lines or grid lines running through it, however when the image is cropped these evenly spaced white thin lines appear across the image. These lines will even show up after the image is exported. Any fixes or resolutions? Illustrator is up-to-date, I'm running macOS Ventura 13.0. (This does not happen with other images that are cropped in this file). To crop the image I am just simply going to Object>Crop Image

Illustrator 2023 often force close when drawing with the pencil tool
Illustrator 2023 version 27.2 freezes when I try to draw using the pencil tool for about 5-10 minutes with a pen tablet, and then immediately force close itself. and this keeps repeating several times and I even tried restarting my PC, changing the graphics performance for the Illustrator app to "High Performance", updating the latest drivers and software. but the problem is still not resolved.
I really need your help for this issue so that it can be resolved quickly. very annoying when I'm working and suddenly force close by itself.

Direct Selection Tool not working
I'm on a Macbook pro (macOS Big Sur version 11.7) using Adobe Illustrator 2023.
When using the direct selection tool and clicking on an object or path, the anchors don't show up and the object/path does not look like it is selected. However, if I run my mouse around the edge of the object/path then the anchors will show up when the mouse is hovered above it and I can select the specific anchor. However the handles don't show up.
What can I do to fix this?
I've tried restarting my computer and resetting my preferences but the problem still…3 votes -
Undo after deleting a line created with the Pen tool freezes Illustrator
OS: Windows 10 Enterprise
AI Version: 25.4.1,
Bug replicated with three different computers and instances of Illustrator, all same OS, same AI version, same freeze.I had a bunch more steps when I ran across this problem, but I was able to replicate it with much fewer steps like so:
With the pen tool, draw a couple vertices.
Delete the line you're making from the table of contents.
Click on the canvas anywhere; the line reappears with a new vertex which you just made.
Undo the vertex you just made (the first time I did it, it undid the pen…3 votes -
"Corner" anchor points become smooth when joining active Curvature Tool line
Create a line that contains a corner (any tool).
Begin drawing a second line with the Curvature Tool.
As part of your new Curvature Tool line, click either end of the first line.This causes a conversion of corner points to smooth points.
I posted this issue on stack exchange (see link below) and was told this was a bug. It certainly wouldn't make sense as a feature, so that seems like a legitimate conclusion.

Mising Anchor Points not sure why
I am running the latest version of Illustrator CC from my Windows 10 PC. It is a project that I have been working on, both my computer and on my Ipad. I don't know if it is that I recently added materials from Substance on the computer, used the 3D options, then went to make changes on the Ipad later on, but now opening the document on the computer again, I am not getting any anchor points when using the direct selection tool. I checked all my preferences, then I opened a file saved to my computer, and the anchor…

Single click on a radial gradient with gradient tool does nothing...
When using the gradient tool on a radial gradient, a single-click should move the center of the gradient to the click location. This only works if the gradient annotator is turned on, otherwise nothing happens. See attached video.

Custom Brushes no longer working in newset update 25.3.1
My custom brushes stopped working with the new update. When I switch between custom brushes it either does not change or changes to the incorrect brush.
I have several custom brush files that I use for my job and this is happening with all of them.
I switched Ilustrator back to the previous version, 25.2.3, and the brushes are working fine, however I would prefer to be using the most up to date version of illustrator and to not have to rebuild 5 custom brush files that each contain around 7-20 brush variations.
I am on Windows 10.
Thanks for…3 votes
