Illustrator won't preview changes in the transparency mask until I move the art.
I just set up a new computer this morning and this is a new problem I have not dealt with before. Any edit I make to the transparency mask in an artwork does not preview until I move the artwork. Moving the view, zooming in and out etc doesn't udpate the preview, only moving the artwork. I tried turning off my GPU performance to see if that was causing some issue but it didn't change anything.

Rendered objects not matching the outline
I have found multiple rendering issues with Illustrator 2020 on Mojave 10.14.6
There are three types:1.) When cutting an object with the path finder, it might occasionally produce straight lines instead of curves, although I can't replicate this and it happens rarely.
2.) The displayed object doesn't follow the outline accurately in general. This is blatantly obvious when zooming in to the max and drawing a small object.
3.) Lines aren't smooth, they have extremely tiny irregularities. These disappear when zooming (even when already at max) but only for the current screen. Moving the camera reveals new ones and…

UI goes crazy after Separations View and 'Clinging' bounding boxes?
Hi
Have a couple of bugs which constantly keep cropping up.
When using the Separations Preview, after turning it off again, I get white lines over the screen when scrolling around the page. The more I scroll, the more appear. I can rectify by floating the window, but that's not really a 'fix'...
Randomly/Occasionally I get a bounding box which 'sticks' to one item on the artboards – so whatever obect I select, the selection/bounding box will highlight both that and other object. Seems to randomly un-stick itself, but usually only sorted by closing the file.

White bars over the screen when turning Overprint Preview off?
Hi
Been noticing a bug where I get white bars over my screen as I scroll – seems to happen mainly if I come out of Overprint Preview. If I float my tabs to windows or switch Overprint preview back on it cures it, but obviously this isn't actually a fix and is pretty annoying as it happens so often.
Can anyone suggest a more permanent fix please?
Thanks

Overprint preview of overprinting black shows black as semi-opaque
When something is printed as 100% black and set to overprint, the output will be pure black. No registration issue as the 100% element is carried through the other color breakouts. However, in AI CC 2019m when I zoom way in on text which is 100% black and overprinting, I can actually see through the black type. The intensity of the black varies based on what is underneath. One can even watch the black become muted in appearance as one zooms.
Shouldn't 100% black appear as 100% black regardless of being set to overprint or not.

Getting odd artifacting when using GPU preview on illustrator
Shapes look as if they arent inline with each other when using GPU preview, CPU preview fixes the issue but of course I shouldnt have to be running it on CPU preview. The jaggies seem to stem from where there are anchor points, but not every anchor point.

Illustrator WILL NOT display art OR artboards.
How about making Illustrator useable for starters?
I pay enough for this service. I have done a full update and restart of my computer, all of my adobe products are up to date, AND I've uninstalled and reinstalled Illustrator.
This is what I get when I open a new document. Show artboards is on. NOTHING comes up despite using ALL of the fixes I can find in your boards.I expect a service I drop $700 a year on to actually WORK Adobe.

Paths Previewing Very Oddly
Paths with a stroke color and no fill are still filling random corners within the shape. I've rebuilt the shape, and checked for redundant nodes, but neither has fixed the problem. To make is worse, this is happening to to connection points at random (sometimes it has a fill, sometimes it doesn't). Definitely a bug, and a very major one.
Also, copying the artwork into a new document, or even into InDesign, does not fix it. Placing the artwork in InDesign actually makes the preview glitch out. It's as if Adobe gave CC 2018 a lobotomy!

Shape tools lagging and leaving mark when resizing
I just started using Illustrator CC 2018 on Windows 7. I began using some of the shape tools and started to experience an issue. Each time I go to resize a shape or move it, the shape leaves an impression of its previous size or location. I tried to uninstall Illustrator and then reinstall, yet the problem persists. If I minimize or maximize the art board the lines go away. I have also found that the smart guides don't work when re positioning the shapes.

Rendering Issue When Not Using Application Frame
When the Application Frame is turned off and a file is opened it does not render correctly. Instead broken sections of the screen appear. It's different each time. In order for the file to render the Application Frame must be turned on. It can then be turned back off if the user prefers not to work in the Application Frame. I have attached a screen grab of one of the files opened with the Application Frame turned off.

Outline mode does not work
I have Illustrator CC, I have tried the work around of Ctrl+E then Ctrl+Y.
Outline mode displays the lines but freeze and won’t allow the color to leave the image or the lines to be manipulated. I’m so fed up how could I possibly use this program professionally, i have looked up the work around and tried Ctrl+E followed by Ctrl+Y and have tried to access through view mode, still no joy. I have shut down and reopened files 8 times and started again three times on new art board. This problem has gone on for two days. I had…2 votes
