Exporting multiple artboards in Illustrator CC does not accept layer masks
I work for a big company where we create illustrator files with multiple artboards in them (kinda like a sequence) and then export them as PNG for our website.
Its a type of a users manual. We have to crop our artwork with masks, so that one artwork doesnt overlap the other. To do this, we use clipping masks. While my coworkers make the mask over the artwork, which groups all the layers together, I greate a new layer, make it a clipping mask and then drag the artwork into that clipping layer, so I can keep my layers, since…1 vote -
Blob Brush changes size after undo operation
Illustrator CC 2017.1.0
I Select blob brush on 2pt.
Draw a bit with it
Hit undo and the blob brush suddenly changes to a much larger size even though it says 2pt in the menu
The only way to get it back is to go to Blob brush menu, select 1pt hit ok, then go back to blob brush menu and select 2pt again.
I expect that when I hit undo the blob brush will stay the correct size
It changes size every time I hit undo

I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 23.0.6 which is available worldwide now.
Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.
You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

Illustrator freezes with creating new document
A few times when I opened the new Illustrator 2019 on Mac, Mojave, it freezes and is still buggy after the latest update. When I open Illustrator after quitting the application, or even the first time after restart, it literally gets stuck on either the home screen, but also when I choose "new file" from the home screen's quick create section. A new file will open, but I can't do anything. The Interface freezes and I have to "force quit" Illustrator.

Transform tool not scaling proportionately.
Version CC 23
OSX High Sierra 10.13.6
When entering values into the transform palette to scale a group containing objects with a guassian blur or feather effect, the result is not proportional as intended. The group gets squashed a bit. When the objects with the effects are removed the group will scale proportionately.2 votes -
Can't open any files.
Illustrator won't open any files at all. Every time I try to open one (doesn't matter what file type) it causes the program to turn unresponsive.

Dropbox Smart Sync Enhancement (bug still here)
If you use Dropbox Smart Sync, when you browse files in Dropbox folders to find an open/save location, Adobe softwares (AI, PS, Acrobat...) download automatically all the files in folders you are browsing !
It's said in the Adobe blog that Adobe dev team made an improvement in the march 2018 release (https://theblog.adobe.com/introducing-march-release-illustrator-cc/).
But we still have the issue on several macbooks at work. It's really boring.1 vote -

Workspace on start up gathers to home screen instead of second screen!
Saved custom Workspace on start up gathers to home screen instead of second screen! This has only happened since the release of Illustrator 2019 - which has been the buggiest illustrator I've dealt with - horrible results to simple functionality that has never had problems in the past. very disappointed.

Allow a custom swatch palette to be the AI default without using "Legacy File>New"
Unless I've missed something, it is not possible to use a custom swatch palette as the AI default for all new documents without using the "Use Legacy File>New" feature. No matter what I tried, I couldn't get my custom palette to be the default. Using the standard (non-Legacy) new document feature, I always have to navigate down through the menu to choose my custom swatches, and then it only applies to that one new document. About 99% of what I do is spot color artwork for silkscreen printing, so the AI default CMYK swatch palette is useless to me.
