Colour Hex Cut / Copy Error
I'm switching between AE and Illustrator. Copying Hex codes from Illustrator and pasting them into AE.
If I accidentally press Ctrl+X it starts misbehaving.
It stops copying any codes and the clipboard has some SVG export code. I can't copy anything else unless I close and reopen Illustrator.

Scrolling or zooming causes round Corner Widgets to get deselected
Steps to reproduce:
1. draw a rectangle
2. Use the mouse to select ONE of the corners' radius handle (the bullseye handle inside the corner)
3. Move the mouse wheel to pan (or zoom) a small distance.
4. The bug happens here! The corner radius handle is no longer selected, and dragging the handle now affects all four corners. This is no good if you want to have only one corner radiused. I only noticed this recently so I think it's a newly introduced problem.Panning or zooming should NOT affect the selections that the user has made.

Font linking not working, basic functionality of Illustrator is impaired
1) Image describes it all. Nobody asked for Adobe Fonts, but if you have to do it please pull it off correctly. If it can't synchronize with mainstream operating systems like Windows 10, then what is the point? Professionals that have to use your software have no spare time to write obvious feedback like this.
2) I am working in a team that is dependent on a shared Illustrator asset library. It is not updating consistently and it makes life hard for a lot of people that are trying to do their work.
3) Certainly I am not the first…

"Don't show again" check box
"Don't show again" apparently means show every d*mn time.
Checking the box never works. Why?
And why does the pop-up that wants to give you the Adobe Illustrator tour show up every time I restart the program? I've used this program 20 years. I don't want to take the freakin' tour. Ever.
Fix your sh*tty program and make it as good as it was before CC.

0.1 degree tilt.
If you draw a square with the Rectangle tool, it is tilted by 0.1 degrees. The same thing happens with the Circle tool.

Selection Tool Bounding Box transform is broken with circles and rectangles
The most often used transform option - the bounding box of the selection tool - is broken with these shapes.
If the shape has stroke, the bounding box will include the stroke.
And when I move the transform corner (no matter how tiny amount) the real vector outline jumps to bounding box around it to the stroke's visible edge - thus creating a completely unintentional transform. For example an upscale while I'm actually scaling down.
( The free transform tool works perfectly with these shapes too.)13 votes -
Illustrator compiling vectors into highly pixelated bitmaps after a save
In a file with many objects and groups, we've found a problem that keeps destroying our work - after we save a file, and then re open it, for some strange reason random parts of the grouped vectors become flat/rasterized and highly pixelated or bitmapped.
What is causing this issue please and is it fixable? It's destroying pieces of work that take a great deal of time.

CC Library Character Styles Set Leading to .01pt
Character Style works fine in Character styles panel, but using Character Styles saved in a CC Library, results in leading being set to .01pt.
This is with a style saved from document to library, or created directly in CC library.

Typography disappears when the text is added on a curved path
This was said to have been fixed in 24.0, but I just updated to 24.3 and had this issue. Any time I use the type on path tool, it appears as though I'm typing (layer name changes) but the text is completely invisible no matter the font size or color and I am unable to highlight the text.

Free Transform tool and bounding box don't work with guides
Sometimes you want to scale a guide by dragging.
But bounding box doesn't show up when guide is selected and Free Transform tool stays in forever 'turn' mode.Don't you say me it is as intended. Just don't.

Problem deleting Spot Color
When I attempt to delete Pantone swatch for the swatch that's being used in my design, it should give us the warning to replace color just like InDesign. Instead, it just converts the color to CMYK without you even knowing which is a problem when you're trying to make sure you're only working with limited spot colors in the document. I remember getting warnings before like InDesign does... is this something new in the application? Could you please fix this issue?

Minor issue - Old date on splash screen (2019 instead of 2020)
I launched version 24.2.3 and noticed that it says © 1987-2019 instead of © 1987-2020 on the splash screen. Other up-to-date Adobe apps says 2020.

File gets opened twice
I have to work remotely from a server at my job. For months now, Illustrator will create these strange duplicates of a file I work on, even if I haven't saved the file. There's no pattern to when these files are made, as I sometimes use a variable import script to batch multiple files at once, but not all files are duplicated. Please refer to the screen capture I included.
In that folder, there should only be 2 AI files, man and woman. But without my prompting, it created those duplicates, and they can't be deleted without rebooting your computer…
