Illustrator WILL NOT display art OR artboards.
How about making Illustrator useable for starters?
I pay enough for this service. I have done a full update and restart of my computer, all of my adobe products are up to date, AND I've uninstalled and reinstalled Illustrator.
This is what I get when I open a new document. Show artboards is on. NOTHING comes up despite using ALL of the fixes I can find in your boards.I expect a service I drop $700 a year on to actually WORK Adobe.

blendtool
Hi Adobe,
I downloaded the new illustrator, 2019 version. Happy to see that the eyedropper tool can adopt colors from images again.
However the BlendTool seems to be different. In earlier versions it was possible to ajust the line on which you blended certain shapes... It appeared between the shapes as a loose vector line. This line is gone now, the only thing I can ajust are the shapes which I blended.. Can you guys fix this again in an update?Thanks! Bjorn.

No Rectangle Shape in toolbar
hi there, today the CC installed advised me to install a new version of Illustrator. Install went smoothly, but I noticed when I opened Illustrator that the shape tool that lets me draw a rectangle is missing. The rectangle with radial corners is there; so I can make one and set the corner rounding to 0; but it isn't as fast and convenient as just drawing a rectangle with sharp corners directly. Is this a new feature? Or is this a bug? (I'm hoping it is a bug)
thanks!

No de-selection of gradient Point / Appearance panel behaviour in AI23
If I edited a gradient point once, the selected point stays selected forever. I is possible for me to select another gradient point, but not de-select the point.
Why would this be necessary?
Because, when I edit some stacked layers of gradients in the appearance panel (what I do very often), the editing of the gradient hides the complete appearance, showing only the highlighted color swatch of the gradient point in the appearance panel.
The only way to get the whole appearance visible again in the panel, is to swith to another tool (i.e. selection tool). This is very time…1 voteHi Marek & Dllyana,
Thanks for sharing this issue,Illustrator team really appreciate this.
You can deselect the selected color stop via Escape key when you are in gradient tool. I hope this works for you as a workaround to deselect the selected color stop. -
Tool Windows Collapsed on Start
Tool windows collapsed on start — make tool windows not collapsed on start. This has happened to me before, I don't remember what fixed it. This doesn't happen if the start screen for MacBook children is used.

Can't file save as (illustrator files, pdf, eps etc), also can't open ai files
I can't save my files as any file types, I can export to png and jpeg, but when I try to save a file it just shows the spinning ball forever and does not save! It is not my laptop, as everything thing else is working as normal (including other Adobe programs which save files quickly)
If I also try and open an existing file it does the same thing!
I have tried re installing Illustrator which hasn't helped.My laptop is a Macbook pro mid 2012 (Mojave 10.14.1) with a new ssd installed. Adobe Illustrator is the lateset version…

Graduated tints apply to unselected objects
Graduated tints apply to unselected objects when I change the colour on the slider. Its really impeding my workflow - in fact its not possible to work with. If I'm working on a large scene, suddenly all of the grads are messed up.

You took away the highlighted outlines from when I select and create objects
I cannot see the outlines highlighted on anything I select, this has ruined my ability to use this program.
I tried going into preferences and selecting the option for showing anchors when I select and it did not work either.I want the old version back, this is useless, PLEASE STOP CONSTANTLY UPDATING THIS PROGRAM
1 voteSorry to hear that you are facing this issue. Looks like you have ‘Show Edges’ option disabled. Goto View→ Show Edges and it will enable the outlines.

GPU bug?
Can't select and release objects in illustrator, seems like the mouse button is pressed throughout. issue ends once clicked on Finder and out of illustrator. Issue started a few weeks after upgrading to Mojave and the CUDA NVIDIA driver couldn't be updated anymore.
Using Illustrator 2015.3 (as this used to support my GPU animated preview)
Tried reinstalling a few times and problems still persist.
Working on XD now, can't use most older vector files made in illustrator, a simple act like copying a vector out to XD is IMPOSSIBLE.

Illustrator CC 2019 v23.0 Divide tool not working
I'm running on a iMac Pro (2017) Mojave OS 10.14 and using Illustrator CC 2019 v23.0. I've tried using the divide tool via the Pathfinder panel as well as the new Properties Panel and neither will work. Typically it would divide the two patterns top and bottom and now it just leaves the patterns as is without dividing. I also have used the guides to divide a pattern and that is not working either.

path guides centre edges disappear when dragging a guide from the ruler
Path guides centre edges disappear when dragging a guide from the ruler in CC, in previous versions you could quickly line up a guide to the centre of a box now you have to zoom out to see the centre. Another feature that worked great in previous versions now lost.

Adobe illustrator does not display acute mark for cyrillic fonts
Illustrator does not display acute mark for cyrillic characters. I can copy and paste something like "коты́" from EditText or from web browser, but in illustrator document acute will not displayed no matter which font will be used.
This is very strange bug, because acute marks works in font selector preview (see screenshot)
