Illustrator Crashes when Opening File on Second Monitor
Illustrator is crashing when I open up the application on my second Monitor. But when I open it on my laptop it works. It will only work on my second monitor if I open it up on my laptop then drag to the second monitor. But if I want to open up another illustrator file it will crash again if I'm using the second monitor.

GPU Preview displaying hidden shapes
In GPU Preview, turning off the visibility of a shape in the layers panel doesn't always hide the shape - it still remains on screen.
If I switch to Outline view the shape is hidden correctly.
If I switch back to GPU Preview the shape is still being displayed.
I have to reboot Illustrator to get GPU Preview to work correctly again.
And then it goes wrong again very soon afterwards.This has now happened several times.
I've also had shape fills showing as incorrect colors in GPU Preview, eg. a square with a white fill, suddenly started displaying as…3 votes -
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.

Placed graphic glitch
Placing a 1-bit BMP image and rotating in Ill2018 results in a broken image. Toggling the GPU Preview on fixes the appearance on screen, but exporting to JPG, the issue transfers to the output image.
I have a video @ http://www.veoh.com/watch/v139306245XMJBdwySI am using a Mac Pro (late 2013) and Illustrator 2018 22.1

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.

Screen rendering issue w/ Illustrator CC 22.1
If I have the "GPU Performance" enabled, my screen goes crazy with just glitches and artifacts everywhere. As soon as I deactivate the GPU rendering, everything is going to be normal again.

Vectors rendered too thick on screen
Since the update to 22.1, all vector lines are being rendered too thickly on screen. Compare any lines drawn in AI with how they appear when printed out - they are inaccurately rendered on screen. Illustrator is a vector application, it cannot be displaying vectors with such poor quality on screen.

Ai artboards all look like someone took an eraser over them.
Ai CC2018. Opening any file sent by my teacher for class, I am the only student in class whose artboard looks like someone took an eraser over it. We've checked for hidden layers, etc. to no avail. I cannot even find the uninstall option to uninstall and reinstall it. Can someone help? I'm running Mac 10.13.2.

Zoom issue
When zooming in from 3200% to 6400% or more, this line starts acting weird. The stroke should not be outside of the path line, but it seems like it's having a rendering issue or something. Seems like it might be a problem only when previewing on CPU. I switched to GPU preview and it's fine, but if I switch back it looks like the attachment

Hard crash GPU rendering MBP2016 - High Sierra
I run a cleanly installed MBP2016:
High Sierra 10.13.4
3.3GHz i7
16GB ram
1TB SSDIllustrator Version 22.1
On the current version of OS en Illustrator, but also for the past couple of releases I have experienced very frequent hard crashes of Illustrator when GPU preview is enabled.
At random times, Illustrator will freeze, immediately after the entire system and only a hard reboot will bring it back.
The phenomenon is frequent yet completely random (no obvious triggers).
Disabling GPU preview immediately stops this from occurring.
No obvious logs are generated during the event but I can run sysdiagnose if…

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 -

SCREEN IS ALL BLACK ON OPENING EXISTING FILE
Just updated to latest version of Illustrator this morning and when I open an existing file to work on it, the entire art board is BLACK. Only way to fix the problem is resize the Mac art board window. My whole team is experiencing this problem. PLEASE FIX ASAP.
Also copy-and-paste from illustrator to indesign seems like it has been disabled as well. Come on, folks... this is not good.... Super unhappy.
We have reverted back to the previous version in the meantime.
