Shape anomalies when creating pattern brushes
When I create a pattern brush using a series of pictures, other duplicated shapes (anomalies) would appear on top of the images when the new custom brush is applied to an object. In some cases it is duplicated, offset lines or flopped shapes that appear as additional objects...
ungrouping all objects before making it a brush seems to resolve the problem...

UI Issues with Two Monitor Setup
When I open Illustrator, sometimes it opens across both of my monitors with ridiculous scaling that causes it to be massive. It takes several full screen corner pulls to get it to a manageable size. Secondly, if I try to do a full screen preview on my second monitor, the whole thing just crashes, without fail, every time, so I am stuck designing on my laptop monitor instead of the secondary monitor.

RGB colors appear differently in identical file setup
I have created color codes in one document and brought them into another (with the exact same RGB setup) and the color breakdowns change to look the same. This is a problem because if I am sharing the RGB breakdowns with others, some of the colors appear much duller. I have noticed that something changes when an image is brought in from an external source sometimes. This is becoming a big issue across our team.

Color Theme Picker works with problems
After the Adobe Illustrator update (don't know if it was the last one in April 2021 or the previous one) Color Theme Picker in a new version of the Recolor Artwork tool stops working. Not only in my app but in the apps of at least 3 people - different OS, different computers. It just doesn't activate then you click the icon.
The solution was found but it was very strange - you need to open Adobe Illustrator not directly on your computer but through the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app. Then Color Theme Picker starts working. And continues to…

My brush and pencil settings wont stay selected
Whenever I select the options for my pencil or brush tool, e.g. uniform + basic, the menu changes to a default unwanted option, or gets stuck on one previously used. My paintbrush or blob brush tool does the same thing but goes further. It does not show the path or shape I'm drawing until after I've released the left click key or pen pressure.

Illustrator keeps freezing after about 30 minutes work
Intel Core i3, Windows 10.
It keeps freezing or crashing when i go from one tab to another within the program. This problem is happening every 30 minutes of work and making it impossible to use the program and I'm losing work that I'm currently using.
I have to close the program down and start it up again. Once I change tabs I get the dark grey background and I cant go any further.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Illustrator and I am having the same issues.

Stop rasterizing the gradient on an object when expanding its appearance
When you expand the appearance of an object with a gradient, the gradient is rasterized, which I believe, defeats the purpose of using it considering the results. The resulting image has a lot of erroneous White specs. If there is a stroke aligned to the center, it creates two layers with the same gradient, which means you have to unite them with pathfinder. A layer that's shaped the same as the rasterized object with the gradient is the color gray.
The workaround is to apply a solid color, then expand, then reapply the gradient, but it took me some time…

The Adobe colour theme panel does not work - it is persistently cut off to the right hand side, the panel can not be dragged to the right and fully opened up. It is unusable. It does not behave correctly when docked with another panel either.

Shift Alt resize of circle gets stuck
When resizing an existing circle using Shift-Alt, the circle should fix at the dimension when the mouse is released, but very often it continues to resize after releasing the mouse and sometimes it is difficult to get it to stop it doing this and finish the circle. This does not seem to happen when creating a new circle, only when resizing an existing one. Windows 10 Illustrator 25.2.2 64-bit

Set the leading with arrows occasionally strip fractional widths
When using the arrows to adjust the leading on type with fractional leading (e.g. 29.95) the period is stripped out and a new leading is the same numeral amount just without the period (e.g. 2995)

Embedded Bitmap .Tif Files slowing down performance
MacOS Big Sur 11.2
iMac Pro (2017)
Processor: 3 GHz 10-Core Intel Xeon W
Memory: 64GB
Graphics: Radeon Pro Vega 63 16 GB
Adobe Illustrator: V 25.2.1Embedded bitmap tif files have suddenly starting causing hindered performance. While still "linked", the bitmaps seems fine. But after embedding those linked files, they cause considerable "beach-balling" while attempting to transform them in any way, toggling their visibility on/off, or zooming in/out. All vector layers remain unaffected when the embedded bitmap layers are hidden. This is occurring on both newly created files, and older .ai files that previously had no issues. These embedded…
