Intro screen icons are not aligned
- The latest version of Illustrator
- On MacBook Pro 15" icons on launch/intro screen icons that belong to the sizes are not aligned. Should be aligned I guess. With a new update 2020 still the same issue.

Smooth animated zoom not working in Overprint or Outline Preview modes
When Overprint preview is off, magnify is from center point, and when Overprint preview is on, magnify is a area box. WTH?!

"Double Click To Isolate" preference does not work
Using the direct selection tool to try and double-click your way to grabbing a grouped object within another group of grouped objects fails. It simply doesn't select any of the other elements. This is a paralysing bug that may well see me dumping my CC subscription and going back to Illustrator CS5 or 6. From what I read, this bug is old so why hasn't Adobe fixed it?
Attached is the file with the bug. Try double-clicking the green nodes on the chart with the direct selection tool. It should grab all the dots. Then expand out and grab the…1 vote -

Switching between tabs doesn't update the view
See the attached video. I have two files open. The second file I opened does not display. When I click on the file tab I still have the previous file displayed. Regardless of which file is active, I can only edit one. I can't even see the other. They are two completely different projects - they do not look the same. You are only seeing one file in this video, despite which one I select. I have to quite and restart, losing any changes I may have in the one file I cannot see.

Asset Library Export stopped working with batch exporting
From today for some reason batch exporting icons does not work in the Asset Export. I have a set of 150 icons that I use, and only change the color combinations as required. It always worked flawlessly. From today, When I click export, it seems to work, but no icons get exported when all are chosen. If I manually check a few at a time it works, but if I choose All Assets, it wont work anymore. Tried rebooting and clearing the cache.

Brush not working with dual monitor setup
- Illustrator v 24.1.1
- My brush pen doesn't line up to where my pen touches on the screen. I am using a touchscreen monitor on a desktop computer. The brush works in photoshop and every other program but illustrator.
- I would like to use the brush in illustrator for drawing
- The brush is about 2-3 inches away from where I touch the screen almost like it's treating my two monitors as one, always pulling toward the center of the two screens.

Point Type moving when opening CC2019 AI file in AI2020
MacOs Catalina 10.15.3
CC2019 version 23.1.1
AI2020 version 24.2.1Only seems to occur when the text is aligned to the centre, set as point type and has tracking applied to it.
We have artwork files created in CC2019. When opening one of these files in AI 2020, version 24.2.1 on either Mojave or Catalina, text that is set up with tracking, is point type (instead of area type) and centre aligned shows a significant movement to the right.
As you can see from the attached .gif of the two files, there is one instance where there is no tracking applied…1 vote -

Dashes not reproduced properly on paste from Excel
Copying any chart from Excel to Illustrator, where the chart contains a dashed line does not respect dash spacing set in Excel, and always imports with fixed (and rather nonsensical) 1000px dash spacing (so typically no dashes are seen except the first one in almost any artwork).
This has been happening for a while, 1-2 years for sure, so it's not a new bug. It persists across Illustrator and Excel versions.
1) make a chart in excel
2) add dashes to the line
3) copy and paste into illustratorExpected:

Full colour image shut down to a simple line drawing
Illustrator shutdown unexpectedly. When it recovered, my drawing was fine for a moment, then reduced all the work I had done into a simple line drawing. What is going on? I don't see the image I had spent many hours developing.
