Tool useage goes away after a period of time.
I am currently trying to use Illustrator 23.0.1 on a windows 10 machine. After loading a drawing that I am working on, everything is ok at the beginning, but after a short amount of time, I start losing function of the tools that I use. For example, when I type, the text change does not appear until I click off of the text and click the curser on the drawing board. Too many other things quit working and I have to shut down the application, and reopen. I am lucky if I get 10 minutes of work done before bad…

Pattern brush
Pattern Brush start and end components should not appear when used on closed paths as in Illustrator CS6.
if you make a pattern brush with a red dot at the end, you can use it to find open paths in CS6 but not in CC2018. necessary for working with plotter/cutters.

Error When Selecting Graphic Styles Palette
Recently updated to Illustrator CC19 (version 23.0.1) Was altering the workspace and when I selected the Graphic Styles palette I get the error message "There is not enough memory available to process the appearance of an object error" Didn't even have an object selected or anything, after the error message all options are greyed out and I can't select anything on the artboard. Tried restarting, saving a new file, deleting all the graphic styles I had installed but the error still persists. This is happening for both old and brand new files.
I uninstalled Illustrator and reinstalled and it seemed…

Selection Stuck
Often when I select multiple object one will remain selected no matter where I click and what else I select. I have to "select all" then clink in blank space to get everything un selected. It's wasting a lot of time.
27 votesI am glad to update that this issue was fixed in 23.1 release.
Thank you for all the feedback.

Vectors rendered too thick on screen
Since the update to 22.1, all vector lines are being rendered too thickly on screen. Compare any lines drawn in AI with how they appear when printed out - they are inaccurately rendered on screen. Illustrator is a vector application, it cannot be displaying vectors with such poor quality on screen.

svg export for screens distorted
Vectors getting quite distorted creating svgs of logos even with 5 decimal places and no minify. I've had to copy and paste into Sketch then export svgs from there, not ideal at all.

Type properties panel bug
Every time when changing a text's properties and deselecting it the text is reverted to size 12. Also when a different colour is applied to part of the text and deselecting it, the colour is applied to the whole text. The situation is the same with different font styles - setting part of the text in bold will result that everything is changed to bold when deselected. It happens every time.

Disable jumping of dock icon during saving on MacOS
When saving documents with Adobe Cloud (e. g. Adobe Illustratior 23.0.1) apps on MacOS (10.14.1) the dock icon „jumps“ repeatedly. This is a MacOS feature to alert the user that the program that is „jumping“ needs something done by the user (like confirming or canceling something in a dialog box).
But with Adobe apps the jumping of the dock icon has no meaning (aside from „I'm saving your document atm“ – which I know because I just started that process and can see the process bar on the dock icon). This is very distracting and misleading.1 vote -
Turn Sensei Off and Presets
Sensei is making my life ****...what it thinks I want to do is not what I want to do, as such the bug I want to report is my "turn sensei off" button is hidden. For example when using the puppet tool I have to now delete all the pins Sensei thinks I want before I can do the thing I actually want to do making the task longer than it needs to take. That's just the latest (five minutes ago) example of how Sensei is messing up day. Give us a checkbox in preferences to turn Sensei off.
Presets…
1 voteThere is already a preference to turn off the Sensei feature that you spoke about. Go to preference , go to general tab and turn off the checkbox “Enable Content Aware Defaults”. This is the last option on the second column.
Units are part of presets so each time you create a file using a preset it will create using the units that was saved in the preset. To workaround this what you need to do is follow the following steps:
1. Press CTRL+N or CMD+M – depending on your platform
2. Select the preset of your choice e.g. A4 / Letter etc…
3. On the right pane change the unit to your choice like inches.
4. Create your file
5. The next time you come back to this file new dialog you should have this preset in your recent tab -

Using scale tool on justified text results in changing line breaks
Illustrator CC 22.0.0 on Windows 10 x64 Pro
Have a column of Area Text, justified, with carefully defined line breaks so that words are hyphenated at particular places, or not hypenated at all.
When using either the scale tool (shift+click to scale proportionally) or the transform tool, all of the content should scale proportionally and the line breaks should not be changed.
The resulting rescaled text column has very slight changes to the line breaks. While shift+dragging, the text looks correct (just scaled proportionally, without any reflow or stretching), but when releasing the mouse, there is suddenly some text reflow…

Can't create new file
When I click Create New... it comes up with a window but it doesn't have anything on it. All that comes up is the window with the title of %CCXFNFTDIALOG_NAME. It is really annoying since I can't create new project.
I'm on a Window 10 running Illustrator 23.0.1.

Some shortcuts not working in 22.1
For example Transform each Ctrl+Shift+Alt+D not working at all.

Illustrator crashes as one file opens.
Opening a file I have been working on, Illustrator crashes just when the window appears after the loading bar disappears. As far as I know, this only happens with this particular file. I can open another file which is much larger.
This is pretty much a disaster for me.
I've tried restarting, and closing all other programs. AI still crashes in the same way.

Artboard selection bugs in Illustrator CC 2018
There are a number of bugs related to Illustrator CC 2018 losing artboard selection (no highlight in the artboard list in the artboard panel), and losing sync between actual artboard selection and displayed (highlighted) selection. These include:
When copying an artboard by dragging and dropping it onto the New Artboard icon in the Artboard panel, and then dragging that new artboard to a new position in the artboard list, the selection is displayed on the new artboard in its new location, but in fact, the original artboard is still selected. Double-clicking on the new artboard does NOT move selection to…

GPU Preview Shortcut Resetting
After changing the shortcut for "View using CPU" and "View using GPU" it reverts back to the original CMD+E setting when Illustrator is restarted. I noticed this bug after a 2015 update and it's still present after updating to 23.0.1.
Operating system: macOS Mojave 10.14
I've been able to replicate the issue on three other computers by doing the following: change the keyboard shortcut for GPU preview to something other than CMD+E and restarting Illustrator. I would expect Illustrator to retain the new keyboard shortcut under the View menu, but it reverts back to CMD+E.
Thank you.
