hebrew punctuation
hebrew punctuation problem.
right now (finally, thank you) you can write in hebrew right-to-left.
BUT the punctuation still comes out always in the wrong direction.
I attach an example.
Thank you in advance.

Text and Objects Randomly Rotating
When I move text or an object, I will always notice they get slightly rotated. It's hard for the eye to see it sometimes, but the guide lines will show that things get slightly rotated sometimes for no reason.

character panel
Please allow this shortcut to work again - No longer able to drag mouse left or right over the text tools (font size, leading, tracking, etc.) to quickly adjust the value lower or higher. This is helpful when designing quickly vs. typing in the exact value or using the arrows to increase/decrease.
This is still possible in the Photoshop update - however, it is buggy and does not work correctly anymore.
Thanks!

Delay of text cursor
- Illustrator 22.0.0 (64-bit).
- There is a delay in the text cursor showing up when it's moved with arrows or a text path is newly clicked, requiring one to wait for it before being able to continue working.
- The text cursor should be immediately visible.
- There is a delay instead of a couple seconds. (That's a long time when making many moves in a row.)

Auto-sized Area text not resizing correctly
Looks like someone didn't understand (or maybe I didn't explain well enough) what the issue was with this bug that was declined. So I have recorded a video to demonstrate the issue.

Type properties panel bug
Every time when changing a text's properties and deselecting it the text is reverted to size 12. Also when a different colour is applied to part of the text and deselecting it, the colour is applied to the whole text. The situation is the same with different font styles - setting part of the text in bold will result that everything is changed to bold when deselected. It happens every time.

Illustrator 2018 Loses ability to keep text uniform when transforming the type on path
Illustrator 2017 had the ability to, while transforming the type on the path shape, to keep the text on it the same size and proportions when doing so. I would select the path with direct selection tool, then hit command, and text would stay uniform when transforming path.
Now, in illustrator 2018, using same steps and command, type doesn't stay uniform, it gets squished.
Below are video links I recorded to show how the action works in 2017 and 2018 illustrator.

Font drop down menu disappears
Whenever I select the font drop down menu, and I'm going through the fonts I have, it just randomly disappears as I'm looking through the fonts to find the one I want to use, although I can still use my arrow keys to go through the list even though the drop down menu isn't on my screen.

Font point size change
In the new CC 2018 release, when changing font point sizes, the program registers every keystroke entered in the font size field of the character box. For example, if piece of text is set to size 10, and you want to change it to size 15, entering "15" into the character panel changes the font briefly to size 1, until the 5 is entered and then it changes to 15. When undoing this change using command-z, the it requires two keystrokes to return from 15 to 10, because the first undo returns it to size 1, and the second then…

Group selection + free transform no longer works on text boxes to resize area without changing text
When I have a textbox open in Illustrator, in the past I could use the group selection tool to select just the box surrounding the type and manipulate that without affecting the text but now the bounding box doesn't even appear when I have the box selected without the type.
Currently to manipulate the box without the type I would need to individually adjust each anchor point on the box, the free transform tool was previously very convenient for working around the fact that there's no actual feature to distinguish between manipulating the text box and the actual type but…

Major Font problem in Ai CC 2018
Adobe Illustrator 22.0 64-bit
Windows 10 1703 (build 15063.632) 64-bitCharacters refuses to render, be it in an area frame or a single line. Can't work like that, returning to CC 2017 right now.
I had a full page of text yesterday and now I have just the backgrounds. The text frame can be selected but the characters panel doesn't show any information regarding type weight or anything. Also, the Find Font dialog is broken.4 votesPlease get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html .

CC 2018: Objects on top of textframes are no longer selectable
I made a clear video to illustrate this (annoying) bug.
My colleague has not yet updated Illustrator and is using the latest 2017 version.
I have updated to 2018.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1bUmXCcssg
In the video you see:
- On notebook 1: I created a textfield with rectangle on top. I can select the textframe and the rectangle on top easily. They are on the same layer.
- On notebook 2: I did the exact same, but it has become impossible to select the rectangle.I cannot imagine this is done on purpose.
I understand that I would not be able to select…4 votesWe have the fix available in the latest release. Please update Illustrator using Adobe Creative Cloud application to the latest build for version Illustrator CC 23.0.
