Very wired and bad line jitters in "Accurate" Fidelity mode in Pencil tool
I'm using the Pencil tool quite a lot in "Accurate" Fidelity mode, but it seems like this mode somehow got worse with the last updates? Did they change anything with the Pencil tool?
Does anyone suffer the same results while drawing with some speed?
There are these wired bumps in a lot of sections, which are absolutely NOT accurate.
I know I can smooth the lines, but that smoothes everything. For some drawings I really like the accurate mode — but not this way...

Reshape Tool’s markers don’t conform the Anchor Points, Handle, and Bounding Box Display Size' parameter
Reshape Tool is a rather hidden tool within Illustrator’s toolbox.
It never received any updates (as many other tools) in last decades, and got even worse thanks to one specific improvement.Illustrator today allows to increase size of anchor points, handle, and other control markers (referred below as just 'markers') with a dedicated parameter in the Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display section). It helps to transform and edit paths on higher DPI displays — a good feature.
...but Reshape Tool marks its control points with squares slightly larger than a normal point... a normal point of a smallest marker’s…

Dimension tool doesn't measure correctly
So, I went to measure a dieline with the Dimension tool and it measured 9". However, when i selected the dieline and went to the Properties it said it was 8.5". When I actually printed it out and measured it, it was 8.5". This tool is not working correctly. See attached images for further explanation/verification.
Maybe I am doing something wrong? Can't figure out what that would be though. Thank you for looking into this!
1 voteThe problem was in the '0' picked as the Precision value in Dimension Tool Options instead of default '0.00'. If you have this value changed by itself, without you ever changing it manually — please comment.

AI HAVE THE WORST QUOTE TOOL OF THE WORLD
You have to follow Rhino quote tool. There's a lot of mistakes in AI quote tool.
- I don't want to see "mm" after my quote.

I MUST have the possibility to snap different quotes to a single point
I MUST have the possibility to have orthogonal quote from oblique points
PLESE DO IT QUICKLY!!!! WITH THE LATEST VERSION OF AI CAD TOOLS NO LONGER WORK...I LOST 1500 EUROS OF SOFTWARE BECAUSE OF THIS CHANGE2 votes -
Dimension tool prefers to snap to or edit an existing dimension instead of starting or completing a new one
Take a look at the GIF.
I need to measure the width of one square, and then measure the overall width of both squares.I create the first dimension with no problem.
However, when I try to create the second one, Ai plays dumb.When I click the leftmost point, the tool thinks that I am to EDIT the existing dimension (although I am clicking and not click-and-dragging, and I am clicking an endpoint of it, and not in the middle!)
Well... I can lock the first dimension (which would require me to abort, select the first one, lock, and…

Width tool started work weird after update 27.9
After this update, width tool on closed shapes instead of acting like they are shapes with continuous edges, it cuts the width at a point.

Oh and in some cases width point not showing.

Please check and reply back if it now works as expected.

Mockup (Beta) in Illustrator not working due to PARM error
I am trying to use the Mockup (Beta) tool, and every time i get the "the operation cannot complete because of an unknown error [PARM]" message and the action cancels.
I'm attempting to mockup using a compound path and a png. I've updated and reinstalled both the app and the mockup installer. I've also tried using the newest and previous versions of Illustrator. I've also removed my preferences and still no luck.
Any ideas? I've used Mockup on this computer multiple times without error.

Editing handles of smooth points using ALT to change one side only
Adobe Illustrator 2024 on MacBook Pro running Sonomas 14.5
When editing smooth points I used to be able to select one side of the handle, hold the ALT key and edit the direction of that handle independently. Now it duplicates a part of the path. It's slowing me down a lot. Used - making waves, hair texture on objects, etc. Thank you1 vote -
Radial lines in a group created with Polar Grid Tool don’t touch the outer ellipse precisely
After creating a shape with the polar grid tool, if you want to create the shape of any region on the outermost layer, you cannot. Because the anchor point connects to the outermost layer and does not cut it. In the examples I will give below, I am trying to shape the area I indicated in blue with the (Shape Builder) tool. However, we cannot cut the shape because the section line does not touch the upper part. It must be a mistake to connect to the inner part of the circle correctly, but not to the outer part. You…

Rotating with Shift held doesn't rotate precisely at 180 degrees
MacBook Pro 16-inch, 2021
Apple M1 Pro
16 GB memory
Sonoma 14.1.2Illustrator 28.4.1
Holding down shift while rotating an object "180deg" doesn't actually rotate it 180deg. It's maybe 179deg, which is a major problem.

Making a regular triangle with Star tool duplicates the path
Scissor tool cuts lines and duplicates them (completely broken)
Make a triangle by selecting the star and changing it to 3 lines (triangle), now cut one of the lines with the scissor. It duplicates the shape! This bug is seen across multiple shapes and lines. The scissor tool is broken along with selecting individual points often creates duplicate lines.
The quality of adobe products has just gone downhill in the last 5 years.

Dimensions get expanded when moved, with or without related objects
I can somewhat understand dimension object get expanded when they are moved away from the measured object... although this should not happen.
But why the dimension objects get expanded when they are moved WITH the measured object? What, Ai can’t distinguish moving form other transformation? What if need to move my artwork to just insert something else — what, this makes all of my dimensions instantly dead?
Don’t expand dimensions until a user has an clear intention to do it!
