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.
I use width tool a lot and this is problematic.
Oh and in some cases width point not showing.
6 votesThe bug is fixed in the latest public release 28.0.
Please check and reply back if it now works as expected.

Zoom with Alt+wheel is way too sensitive in new v27.3 to the point of being unusable
This has just started with the new update to v27.3 using the Alt and the scroll wheel now causes intermittent massive jumps in zoom. Updated all my Logitech software. Running latest everything so reverting to 27.2 as this makes Illustrator unusable. How on earth did this get through any sort of testing?
40 votesThe fix for this issue has been rolled out with Illustrator 27.3.1 release available through Creative Cloud Desktop.
Please update to 27.3.1 version to ensure you do not run into this issue.

Group Selection and Selection Tool (V) selecting individual points
When using the group selection tool, I hi light and object by clicking on it and then try and move it. Rather than moving the object hi lighted, the tool selects a single point - grabs it - and I move that single point instead. This often leads to a crash of the application.
15 votesThe solution to this problem is to disable the dedicated 'Show handles when multiple anchors are selected' option in Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display.
Usually it is off by default and does not interfere.
However, when it’s enabled, Illustrator displays all handles for all selected art when Group Selection tool is used, and it can lead to accidental handle changes when moving the art.
If you have it disabled but still have problems — please comment back.

Magic Wand tool selects things it shouldn't
In the video below, I have four shapes: two black squares with a transparent stroke (i.e., no stroke), a black square with a gold stroke, and a red square with a gold stroke. The tolerance level in the Magic Wand palette is set to zero for both strokes and fills.
If "Fill Color" only is checked, and you click on a plain black square with the Magic Wand tool, both plain black squares and the black square with the gold fill are selected as expected.
If "Stroke Color" only is checked, and you click on a plain black square, both…

Annoying Flickering Cursor when Photoshop is open
This is still an issue with the latest releases of Illustrator and Photoshop. We shouldn't have to close Photoshop to have the behavior disappear. See my screen capture today attached or on Box.com: https://nic.box.com/s/hemehrwzo9fm0ye3evst9ma41x908ipp

Wrong Dimensions When working with large canvas

RTX 3060Dimensions for objects in an artboard above 227 inches x 227 Inches gets divided by 10. So a square of 1000mm will show as 100mm when you pull out the dimension.

Cursor won’t change when a tool is picked using keyboard shortcuts
Selected tool icons do not change when using keyboard shortcuts. For example: zooming in (Z) and then selecting Direct Selection (A) keeps the zoom icon, which is disconcerting to say the least. You're not sure you've selected the correct tool, or have to click the mouse to make sure (doing so resets the icon to the correct tool).
I've noticed it on 26.5. I rolled-back to 26.4.1 and experienced it there too. I'm running a new MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021), Apple M1 Max chip 32 GB.
I've attached screenshots of various tools that fail to switch.
