Convert to shape tool
When using the convert to shape tool / ellipse:
Select circle imported from PDF that has 100's of points around perimeter. Use convert to shape, ellipse option. If I set the tool to "relative", and the value to zero "0", then the converted shape should match the original. Instead, the shape is larger, because it is using the size of the box inscribed in the circle instead of the diameter (or width and height). Please fix this.

compound path mask bug
When a compound path serves as a mask AND has it's own color, objects inside it can not be selected with the Direct Selection-tool. Instead, the mask itself is selected. This is different from single-path masks, where objects inside can be selected with the Direct Selection-tool (even when the mask has it's own color).
In attached file, both masks contain the same purple rectangle. In the 'g' (a compound path), the rectangle cannot be selected with the Direct Selection tool. In the 'K', it can. Both masks are colored.

Unable to assign CMD+Z to Undo tool
I am using Illustrator CC 2018 22.0.1 for Mac (High Sierra 10.13.2) and I am having trouble assigning CMD + Z to my "Undo" tool. After my last update, I had lost nearly all of the default keyboard shortcuts (I had never customized them before so I assume they were the defaults) like cmd + s = save, cmd + c = copy, cmd + v = paste, etc. which was really frustrating to always have to go to the menu bars to do small actions. However, I have since gone in manually and reinstated the old shortcuts, but for…

Even though I change the units under preferences to display pixels, if a document was previously setup to display inches, it will not change to display pixels. It just shows inches.

Text Boxes won't Scale or Flip
IllustratorCC 22.0.1 running under OSX 10.12.6
Select text box and either attempt to flip (Reflect tool using vertical axis) or scale using the Scale tool. Scale fails both dragging to scale, or double-clicking the Scale tool and inputting numeric scale value.
Text box scales or flips horizontal, as in all previous versions of AI.
Error message reading: "Can't scale the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects too large."

Charts and Graphs: x-axis number values shift when revising data in a bar graph
When reconfiguring a bar chart with new data (as opposed to creating a new chart), the values at the bottom x-axis will shift on their y-axis, or in other words, their baseline will shift.

Selected object in locked layer
Objects remain selected when I move them into a non-visible group/layer and lock the group/layer. It is not possible to deselect the object until you unlock and make visible the group. So far I've been able to recreate the problem every time I've tried.

Bad precision of the mouse/cursor
I am using Illustrator CC2018 on a MAC OX Sierra.
There is a huge issue with the precision of the cursor. It is super shaky, keeps on appearing/disappearing. It's worst when you hit Alt, cmd, or space. I can't see the tools I am using, for example, the cursor is always black, even if I am using the white cursor ( "A" tool).
This is really annoying, even more when I try to work with my Intuos pen and tablet... It is simply impossible.
Am I the only one experiencing that ?4 votesPlease accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience.

Stroke weight reverts to previous scale when embedding after rotating a graphic.
AI CC 22.1
I had an linked .pdf at 10% scale, which I rotated 90 degrees, then scaled up by 1000%, then I embedded the file. The strokes in the artwork reverted back to 10% size. If I repeat the procedure, but do not rotate the file first, then the stoke retains the enlarged size.

Custom Views, unlocking layers
"Custom Views unlocking layers"
Hi, I found something that I believe that wasn't supposed to work that way. I made a "Process" describing what's happening, but my point here is that I didn't expect the Views Feature to unlock layers, I thought it was only supposed to change the Zoom and view location.
Process:
1- Create a New view with everything unlocked
2- Lock some Layers.
3- Activate your view.Result: Everything gets unlocked

artifacts that shouldn't be there
I've noticed that sometimes there will remain some random artefacts of after deleting anchors that are ordered in lines or curves around each other.
It will remain there, can't be selected, and even if the rest of the original form is removed, it still remain.
It is not shown after rendering the image though.
It occurs sometimes, and could be disturbing.Latest in CC 2018-01
