Enormous issues with Illustrator 2019, OS High Sierra
Illustrator 2019 is acting very strangely. If I undo once, it goes back several steps and I cannot bring back those steps. It removes layers and artwork without any actions. When I save, it removes several actions every time.
If I quit the program completely and restart, it acts normally for a few steps and then starts the whole disappearing act again. I have re-installed the program a few times recently but the same thing keeps happening. It's extremely time-consuming and frustrating!

CC Library Colours automatically adding themselves to Swatches when used
Hey there,
My team and I have recently noticed an error occurring when using the CC Colour Library.
When selecting an object and then a CC registered colour, we get an error message that states: "A different colour with the same name already exists in your document. Please rename this colour to use it in this document."
What we have noticed is that the colour automatically adds itself to swatches the first time you use it in a new document and then this error pops up every time. As such, how can we disable this function so that this doesn't…

Pasting a text makes it loose its formatting
mac OS 10.14.3 running AI 23.0.2
The issue seems to be random and can't replicate every time.
If I copy a group formed by a path and text sometimes, when pasting, the path is expanded (?) and the text loses its format.
When pasting "in Front" or "in Back" sometimes works but ussually pastes in the left upper corner of the artboard.
When pasting a text in any possible way (in Front, in Back, in Place ... ) all format is missing.
The result is a little task consuming double or more time as the expected, delaying my performance and…

Illustrator CC v23.0.1 STILL not showing files that were opened by launching program
This has been an issue that I've experienced for well over a year now and was reported to have been fixed with version 23.0.1, but I updated to that version several months ago and am still to this day experiencing this issue. If you don't already have Illustrator open and launch the program by double-clicking an AI file (or choosing "Edit in Adobe Illustrator" when right-clicking on a link in InDesign), the document in question does not appear to be open and additional attempts to open said file result in either nothing or a dialog box telling you the file…

Shape builder moves arrowhead
Illustrator 22.1 on Mac 10.13.6
When I use the Shape Builder tool to cut a path with an arrowhead, it moves the arrowhead to the other end of the path (but without changing the stroke style).
I cannot put the arrowhead back by clicking the end anchor point of the path.
All I can do is save, close the document and reopen it, then I can (and have to) click each of my paths end points to put all the arrowheads on the right side.
Here's an example, with the Stroke panel visible.

Properties Panel won't stay open
When I have the navigator and the properties panel on the right side on top of each other, the properties panel will close if I expand the navigator and vice versa. This has not been a problem in other versions.

Saving dialogue box is persistent above all other apps and windows (mac)
I think the Illustrator save dialogue box that persists above all other windows on my mac, should not stay above all apps and windows - should stay top of stack within the illustrator environment only

svg import - Support of class assignments at group level
AI 23.0.3 on Win 10
We tried to open a svg created with another tool in AI but there are always display problems. So we compared svg code created in both tools of a filled rectangle and a line.
AI ignores the settings of the svg because of NO support of class on group level (g class). CSS is also not always read well.Is there a possibility to fix this problem?

High Sierra (macOS 10.13) GPU rendering issues with RGB document - Intel Graphics
Illustrator 21.1.0 has issues with GPU rendering in the latest High Sierra public betas:
Paths will appear jagged and generally do not display correctly.
Altering the zoom level affects these artefacts.
Switching off GPU rendering altogether fixes the issue but this way, performance is obviously affected.
Additional Note: Works correctly in CMYK document.

Memory problems in all versions past 23.0.2.
I work for a IT managed services company who's primary customers are advertising agencies on MacOS. We have had to keep everyone back at Illustrator 23.0.2 due to various memory issues. Every time a new update is released, we get a pile of calls saying Illustrator is crashing. We check and sure enough, they have upgraded in hopes that the new version is stable. It has not been and now we are up to 23.0.6 and I just got the same call. Please fix it and release something that is solid. I'm getting sick of downgrading people so they can…

Drop Shadow Bug on Modal Dialog version 23.0.6 (64-bit)
When any additional option opens in the middle of the screen, it leaves the outline of its drop shadow after the dialog box has been closed. It will only go away if I completely restart my computer.
This is a major inconvenience and it's unreasonable to be expected to restart my computer every time I want to browse different options.
I've attached a screenshot showing the bug - I had the different stroke profiles opened. The issue happens when ANY option dialog box opens on the screen.
