2. Illustrator Freezes when trying to scroll fonts

   When text is highlighted, and I go to change the font and use the scroll bar on the right to scroll down, the program freezes indefinitely.

   No custom fonts installed.

   2021 Macbook Pro M1 running Sonoma MacOs 14.3.1 (23D60). No other applications open.

   I used the MacOs Screenshot App to record the bug in action. However - when recording my screen, the bug does NOT happen. I tested this multiple times. Talk about the observer effect...

   In order to capture the bug, I used my phone to record. I tested this multiple times. I'm attaching both videos below.

4. "Load paragraph styles" or "Load all styles" doesn't overwrite styles with same name

   I have a set of 9 template files that I need to update. Each file contains an identical set of about a dozen paragraph styles. I want to update all the paragraph styles in all of the files.
   I updated the styles in the first file (correctstyles.ai) and changed kerning from Auto to Optical. When I open the next file, (e.g. SHED-2023-5-simple-columns-narrow.ai), I use "Load Para Styles" and choose the first file (correctstyles.ai). When I check the style definitions, kerning is still set to Auto. The kerning value should have changed to Optical to match the style from the first file. That does not happen.
   I've also tried using "Load All Styles" and the result is the same. The styles that are loaded are not replacing the existing styles (all have the same names).

5. Leading (line spacing) not shown, blank, in Character panel

   OS:
   Various Mac OS versions and hardware, including M2 Mac Studio and M3 MacBook Pro. Confirmed in screenshots on:
   Mac Sonoma 14.1
   Apple M3 Pro
   36GB of RAM

   ILLUSTRATOR VERSION:
   Various versions. Confirmed on Adobe Illustrator 2024 v28.0 (used for screenshots). This happens across computers and OS and Illustrator versions.

   STEPS TAKEN:
   Opened file and clicked on text.

   EXPECTED RESULTS:
   Selecting text should show leading in Character Panel.

   ACTUAL RESULTS:
   Leading field is blank in Character Panel.

   Leading (line spacing) is sometimes not shown in the Character Panel. The field is blank. This can occur when selecting many characters, which might be expected if different characters in the selection have different leading.

   BUT this also happens when a single character is selected, or the cursor is between characters (screenshots attached), in which case, only one leading value is possible (or should be).

   Undefined leading is a serious problem, and makes matching or checking leading very difficult in a production environment.

6. Words get broken when hyphenation is off with no hyphens

   Illustrator (since a long ago) has a habit of breaking words in area type texts when it should not. Take a look at the test file and watch the attached GIF.

   As you can see, the second word is a long one, and Ai for some reason breaks it — although Hyphenate is off (and the language is properly chosen).

   No hyphen also is displayed at the end of the line, the word is just split.

   If we toggle the Composer from Single-Line to Every-Line, Ai at first correct the tracking and fits the word... but once the container is resized, it gets broken again... and sometimes, when nothing else is done, it gets recalculated again! ...but sometimes not, and it’s even worse, because non-reliable.

   InDesign does it properly, whatever composer is chosen, whatever language.
   No hyphenation should mean NO hyphenation. Words should break like this only when a container width is smaller than the word — and you can see it’s not the case here.

   Works the same on Mac and Windows.

7. Eyedropper DOES NOT CONSIDER COLOR EXCLUSION for TEXTS MULTICOLOR

   Eyedropper tool between two text boxes with mixed color letters. How to copy ONLY text attributes leaving the colors unchanged.
   Even by deselecting fill color and stroke color in the eyedropper detection and eyedropper application boxes, the color of the destination text becomes unique depending on which is pressed as the source and the letters do not remain colored differently.

8. Single line text temporarily breaks to two lines when being moved or adjusted

   This issue has been discussed in the Adobe Community forums, and other people have been able to replicate it.

   This is the current 28.1 version of Illustrator as of Dec. 21st 2023.

   If I have text that is close to the edge of the text box, and I try to make kerning between two characters tighter/smaller, Illustrator temporarily shows the text breaking into two lines, as if it won't fit on one, before readjusting to one line again. It's making it very difficult to fine-tune kerning, as I can't see the progress I'm making. The kerning information in the Character palette does reflect the changes being made.

   Steps taken: use keyboard keys to tighten kerning between two letters, when the text is close to the edges of its containing text box, also while moving said text box using keyboard arrow keys

   Expected result: Kerning visible tightens, text box moves as-is
   Actual result: The single line of text temporarily breaks into a two-line format while performing the action, then returns to single line

   I've also noticed this happens when the text box is selected and being moved via the arrow keys. A community expert has said it can happen clicking the font family in the character tools and other items that shouldn't affect them.

   Things that have not solved it:
   - Resetting preferences
   - Changing kerning from Auto to Optical, etc.
   - Changing Paragraph options from Adobe Single-Line Composer to Adobe Every-Line Composer, or vice versa (this can temporarily solve it for a few hours, then doesn't work again)

   For info on what has been tried and discussed on the community forum:
   https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/strange-kerning-behavior-in-newest-illustrator/m-p/14311052#M391621

9. Text on a path doesn't display or export properly

   I am working in Illustrator 2024 on my work laptop running Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise (I've had this same issue in illustrator 2023).

   I am able to type on a path, but then usually once I exit the file and then re-open it the text is no longer visible. I can locate the text in the layers panel which has been my work around. I'll find the text in the layers panel, target it, cut, and then paste in place. This will make the type visible again.

   Sometimes the text will be visible when I'm getting ready to export, or create a link for review, and then it doesn't show up in the export or the review link. I then have to delete that export or link, go back into the file, target the text in the layers panel (even if it's visible), cut and paste in place to "reset," and then it will usually export properly.

   There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to when this happens.

11. Paragraph Styles: Where has Paragaph Direction for Middle Eastern Version gone? (AI ME 2024)

    1. Mac OSX Monterey 12.6.8 (21G725)
       Mac Pro (Late 2013)

    2. Illustrator 2024 Middle Eastern Version (27.9)

    3. Problem is on Paragraph Style:
       While under General on the left column I can see under "Indents and Spacing" that my Paragraph Direction is set to "Right to Left", I can't find this definition where is should be, on the left column under "Indents and Spacing". It is missing.

    4. Paragraph Direction should appear under "Indents and Spacing" on the Paragraph Style options.

12. Pressing Backspace in text gets recorded in History as a chain of separate Clear steps

    When we type a text, Ai treats it as one operation, all the time.

    Even when we press Enter, the flow is considered to be uninterrupted — and there a bug report about this:
    http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/47038321
    Even if an automatic conversion of bullets happen, Ai still thinks it’s not worth undoing — and there is a bug report about this as well: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/46954429

    But for some reason when I hold Backspace to delete a bunch of text, Ai records each deleted symbol as a separate step, despite the fact it’s treated by users as a one operation, eating up the history steps!

    This is not what InDesign and many other apps do!

13. Thin space and hair space have wrong widths

    In Indesign a hair space is a twenty fourth of an em-dash independent of the font size.
    In Illustrator a hair space depends on the font size.
    6pt font -> hair space is a sixth of em-dash
    10pt font -> hair space is a tenth of em-dash
    20pt font -> hair space is a twentieth of em-dash
    40pt font -> hair space is a fortieth of em-dash
    in other words: a hair space in Illustrator is always 1pt

    In Indesign a thin space is an eighth of an em-dash.
    In Illustrator a thin space is a fifth of an em-dash.

    Indesign seams to do it the right way.
    Illustrator is buggy in both cases.

    In Indesign a hair space is a twenty fourth of an em-dash independent of the font size.
    In Illustrator a hair space depends on the font size.
    6pt font -> hair space is a sixth of em-dash
    10pt font -> hair space is a tenth of em-dash
    20pt font -> hair space is a twentieth of em-dash
    40pt font -> hair space is a fortieth of em-dash

14. Letter "N" symbol instead of hyphen when hyphenation is activated

    Hi,

    We have a problem with a certain file. After first auto activation of a font, the hyphen character is replaced by a "N". When we then close the file, not Illustrator, so fonts stay active and simply reopen the file, the hyphen is displayed correctly.

    We use Connect Fonts for fontmanagement, but apparently the problem is on the Adobe side (according to Extensis)

    OS: Windows 11 and MacOS Sonoma (latest version)
    Most recent version of Illustrator

17. Turning off hinting does nothing.

    I have a font with poor hinting where the alignment of several letters isn't working properly. When I select 'none' from the drop-down menu for hinting in the character panel, nothing changes. In previous versions of Illustrator, this is used to treat the letters as standard vectors.

18. Enter while typing does not get recorded in history as an Undo step

    When I type a text in Illustrator and hit Enter to make a paragraph break, it does not get recorded into the history as an operation I can undo. This means all typed paragraphs get clumped in history together and get undone as a whole.

    This is not how many other apps do, including InDesign and Word.

    Some apps also consider line breaks as an interruption of flow, which would have been handy too.

    It is quite similar to this report:
    Illustrator does not treat the auto bullets as a separate Undo step
    https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/46954429

    and is related to this one:
    Cannot undo paragraph or character style changes or deletions
    http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/20637886

    But for some reason each hit of the Backspace key is considered to be a separate 'Clear' step, even if I hold it down!
    There is a separate report about this also:
    http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/47038315

    Please address these and make Ai respect text breaks as separate steps!

19. Type on path positioning is now quantized and not smooth

    Take a look at the GIF.

    In Illustrator 2022 users were able to position start and end marker brackets with practically infinite precision, smoothly, even for a long, single-bezier path.

    In 2023 these markers are quantized to 0.005 increments! For a long, single-bezier path, this creates laughably large steps (like, almost the width of an entire glyph).
    Note that the quantization is per bezier segment, so if you put text on a path that has many anchor points, it won't be as noticeable. But adding loads of points to a path makes it much less editable later, of course, so it's hardly a workaround.
    This change breaks some scripts and plugins the community developed to gap the holes in Illustrator functionality...
    I doubt this can be unintentional, really.

    I wonder why it was made, what problems was it supposed to solve and can we revert it back.

20. Create text larger than 12pt when zoomed out! (Plus wacom type tool error)

    When I'm putting together a HD storyboard, i.e zoomed out to view a range of 1920x1020 artboards, clicking on the document with the text tool just makes a tiny cross symbol and doesn't allow me to type.

    NOTE - Wacom tablet seems to create the cross. Laptop track pad does create text but at 12pt which is crazy small to edit when zoomed out.

    It would be great if Illustrator acknowledged my zoom level and didn't default to giving me text so small that I can't highlight it or easily edit. Constantly zooming in and out every time I want to annotate or use text is a really inefficient workflow. I feel like this didn't used to be an issue.

    (On a 4k XPS15 display)

    Thanks!
