Sierra (macOS 10.12.6) GPU rendering issues for Illustrator CC 2018
I recently upgraded to CC 2018, and I've been having issues with pathfinder as well as how paths are being displayed. Attached is a shot of what's occurring...this phenomenon not only happens in new edits since udpdating, but is showing up in files that did not display this way previously.

GPU Performance stops working when enabled
Illustrator 21.1.0 (64-bit)
GPU Performance shuts off whenever I open a file. I have to close the file, turn off GPU Performance (yes, turn it OFF in preferences), then turn it ON again, then reopen my file to get it working again. I've been complaining about this for months, and Adobe has ignored my complaints. All updates including drivers have been installed and I've completely removed and reinstalled Illustrator.

Solid black bar 1.5" wide across entire width of screen blocking top part of opened file
On opening existing file, solid black bar 1.5" wide and across entire screen at top of screen blocks that portion of file. Cannot resize it or delete it. Cannot access that part of file for editing. Was fine 3/30/25 after upgrading Illustrator on that day due to issues of uncontrollable mouse action.
TEST YOUR PRODUCT BETTER BEFORE RELEASING IT!!!!!

Rendering Issue with Knock Out Group beyond 200% zoom out
1 background layer, 1 top layer containing 1 text and 1 rectangle grouped together and set as knock out group. A fill is added to the text with opacity 0%, the initial fill is deleted.
Until I zoom in to 200%, the text is not rendered. Starting from 200% zoom, the text is correctly knocked out from the rectangle.
Export works as expected.1 vote -
Drop Shadow, Outer Glow, Etc. make the files extremely bloated
Every time I create a drop shadow or an outer glow now, the thing doesn't render properly on screen (see screenshot), but worst of all that simple addition adds about 500MB to my file size. What's going on?
M1 MacPro Sonoma
Ai version 29.3 - though same thing happens with 28, 27 and 26.I've also included a simple file - add a drop shadow with about 15px size and save (without compression) and watch the file increase, Also see rendering errors.

Pasted/embedded images are sporadically appearing or disappearing depending on scroll direction
When opening an ai file with V29.2 on Windows 11 utilizing a RTX a2000 laptop (Firmware 553.50) embedded and linked images appear and disappear depending on scrolling direction. This renders the program completely unusable. This bug does not appear in V28.7.3

What's the issue? I have to "command zoom out" to see the file. Or close the other files prior for it to open without stalling and a magenta border.

Ghosting and image retention in UI panels of Illustrator & Photoshop with 5k Monitor
Since Illustrator 29 and new Photoshop I suffer an annoying ghosting bug on my LG Ultra Fine Monitor with 5k (at an iMac Pro from 2017). It is only related to Adobe products related and does not appear in any other app!
Even if the panels or windows are not in the foreground, while using e.g. a browser window for some time in front, there appears a ghosting in the tool panels from the window which is in the background of the UI panels, at the moment when switching back to Illustrator.
This is really annoying.
Switching Illustrator to any…
