Color Picker lets objects disappear in Outline Mode and in Exports!
When you use the Color Picker to change the color of texts, then this will lead to the problem, that every object of the same layer disappears in the Outline Mode AND much more worse: in the export.

- Create one ore more text objects. And some other path objects too, if you like.
- Use the Color Picker (!! not any other color tool) to change the color of a text.
- Go to the Outline Mode (ctrl+y) and see that every object seems to be invisible.
- Try to export the file (Export…

Crashes when a path segment is moved
Whenever I am attempting to move an object and inadvertently grab a path segment instead of a point, there is a 50% chance Illustrator will crash. This has been a problem for over two years.

Illustrator not copying svg code to clipboard
After updating to v 27.5, objects that I copy and then paste into other apps are pasting as un-antialiased rasterized images. Previously, the copied data would paste as vectors into apps that accept svg data, and antialiased transparent png images in other apps. To get around this I am first pasting into XD, then copying the data as svg. It would be good to restore the original behavior of the clipboard

Rotate tool doesn't center
When trying to select center while trying to rotate an object around another one, it doesn't center. It will put the center of rotation somewhere around the center of the second object. Like this everything rotated and copied is off center.
Not sure if it is related, but when selecting several items and want to align them horizontally, it just doesn't work. It is placed off the axis (imaginary horizontal line).

Switch window now blocked with an illegal action sound
When I've got windows open on two monitors, when trying to pick the window on my second monitor (and sometimes on my primary monitor), there is a bing (noise to say I'm doing an illegal action) and it doesn't allow me to do it. This has only started since the last update and is not consistent. The way round I've found for it is to go the Window menu and pick the file on my second monitor and then it's all back to normal again.

Placing Linked PDF file with "Show Import Options > Crop to:", placement doesn't obey the option selected
On the latest update to Illustrator (early July 2023), when placing a PDF with "Show Import Options", no matter which option is picked (Art, Crop, Trim, Bleed, Media), it always places to the crop/artboard, even though there is bleed set and larger media/artwork beyond the artboard in the PDF.

Pre Release
I installed the pre-release of Illustrator and can't continue. It says:
Your Illustrator has expired.
Huh? That's definitely a bug! I can only uninstall it and return to my regular Illustrator or the Beta release.1 vote -

Unmatching sizes for identical circles with Preview Bounds
When Use Preview Bounds option is enabled, Illustrator lies about the sizes of some of the identical circles on artboards.
See the GIF and the .ai document attached.Enable the option, open Transform or Properties panel and select each circle. Three at the top right will display the proper size, with the stroke weight included — 8.5 + 3.5px.
Three at the left bottom will be only 8.5 id diameter, without the stroke accounted for.5 votes -
Illustrator crashes while working
Hi! I have a problem, illustrator crashes while working. It started after reinstalling windows. I've already reinstalled Windows too and tried many versions of illustrator. I bought a new computer hoping that the power will be good and everything will work. But illustrator keeps crashing while working. There are no alerts. It just shuts down while drawing. I didn't find a similar problem on the internet.

"unknown filter error" when importing variables which have multiple links within the document
"unknown filter error" when importing variables which have multiple links within the document.
Reproduce:
1. make a document with variables. I have a mix of image and text but I don't think it matters.link multiple document objects to one variable, as is allowed within illustrator
try to update the variable library with a CSV that has the same structure just different values (average use case)
You should get a dialog warning that variable sets need to be overwritten blah blah click ok and then the error pops up. Probably forgot a nested loop would be my completely uneducated guess.

Measurement labels cannot be deactivated
In "preferences" the option to disable "Measurement labels" does not work: they always remain active. It needs to be fixed because it is very annoying when drawing. Thank you.
