Version 24.02 creates random lines and shapes which appear and disappear when scrolling or grouping, consistently crashes upon opening
Lines and shapes will appear on the shapes I have created, but can't be selected. When grouped or ungrouped with something else, the shape and line disappear, but randomly appear when scrolling. I operate on a Windows laptop

Edit just the path when text is on path
Editing the path, independently of the the text on the path is no longer possible. For the last couple decades, I could place text on a path, then I would select the direct select tool (group select via key modifier) and click just on the path to select just the path. Then, I would switch to the regular selection tool. At this point the handles for scaling an object would become visible. Then I could scale or distort the path, independently of the text. About 2 or 3 years ago, Illustrator was suddenly no longer able to do this. At…

Opening screen
Illustrator 24.1
macOS, Catalina, 10.15.3When opening Illustrator I'm presented with the home/opening screen which shows (in my case) latest files used. But regardless of how big I make that screen it never shows coreectly all the thumbs (some of them are cut-off) and there are no scrollbars to either scroll down or to theright to see everything. Would be nice if that is designed in a responsive way.

Alternative glyph (made with Fontself 3.5) don’t shown in text, when not installed in OSX or restart AI
I have a problem testing a new font. I create a font (Fonstelf 3.5.0) with character “a” and an alternative “a.alt” glyphs. I installed the new font just local for/in Adobe Illustrator CC 2020. In the window “Glyphes” I can see my alternative characters. But when I enter a text with the text tool, I only get “a” instead of “a.alt” which I selected in window “Glyphes”. I save my test.ai document.
After install the font with font book in the OSX 10.14.6 I can use and see “a.alt”. Funny fact: After installing the font and re-open test.ai document, the…

Adobe Illustrator point location does not move when changing Y coordinates value by a hundredth.
Adobe Illustrator 2020 24.0.1 on Windows 10 x64 Version 10.0.18362
After giving an object a stroke of 5 and attempting to move a point in the bottom left corner, I discovered that it was not being consistent when being changed in the hundredths. When changing it, it appears to be the same as whatever position it was before. I expected the Y value 483.61 to put the location of the point somewhere in between the coordinates 483.6 and 483.611, but this is not the case.

Illustrator 24.1 can't place AI files created in the same version WIN 10
Illustrator 24.1 can't place AI files. It seams to only affect AI files created in version 24.1.
When attempting to link the AI, illustrator does not generate any preview of the file. It allows the user to follow the placing process but no content is shown when placed on the artboard and also it does not honor the linked file dimensions.
After hitting the "cancel" button on the import tool an error message appears stating Illustrator could not read the ai file.The same file can be linked successfully when saved as a PDF.
The files to be linked sit…1 vote -

Duplicating an Artboard with art on it and then Undoing it, causes crash
if you drag and artboard with art on it while holding option to duplicate, it duplicates fine, but if you Undo, the duplicated artboard remains and you can't delete. sometimes if you try and select the artboard illustrator will crash. the only way to update is to reopen the affected file.

CRASH AND NO RECOVERY
ever since the most recent updates, my illustrator has been crashing regularly. And worse file recovery has not recovered a single file. this is very wack. I have lost money re-doing things I already made and lost because of random crashes. Very Very disappointing and not encouraging me to continue using illustrator.

selection problems
The problem here is with image objects. It matters how you select them. If you select them the wrong way, you get no selection handles, or scaling handles.
Using just the regular selection tool, if you Shift + drag over one image object to select it, then shift drag over another image object, you get no selection handles for scaling. If you shift drag over both image objects you also get no selection handles.
If you shift and click on one image object, then shift click the other, it works fine.
If you drag a single selection over both image…1 vote -

Artwork disappearing / Framework in Outline Mode Glitching
Illustrator artboard disappearing and turning to outline mode if I zoom in/out OR try and move an object. Everything seems to be repeating itself in these weird wire frames. I have to save, exit out, then reenter that file. This is happening often and multiple times a day.

Freeform Gradient fails at transformation.
Hey I like the freeform gradient tool. But after it is applied to an object, the gradient has some major issues with resizing and rotation of the object. From what I can tell the points are not truly anchored in the object, so when the shape rotates the gradient points drop off the object, causing them to delete. It's like the gradient floats above the object. Or more frustratingly, sometimes when using the line gradient within the freeform settings, a point will delete causing the lines to cross and lock up, becoming uneditable. Usually, if you are within the gradient,…

Sunburst shape distorted when saving Illustrator (Version 24.0.3) file to PDF
Sunburst shape distorted when saving Illustrator (Version 24.0.3) file to PDF. I have created a sunburst shape in illustrator using a circle shape, then adding a dashed like stroke. The file looks totally fine in illustrator and also when I save it as a PNG and JPG, but when I save it as a PDF the sunburst is distorted (uneven lines). I even sent an illustrator file to a printer and my prints arrived distorted, which means they had the same problem. They are also using the latest version of illustrator. Is this a bug?
The larger file shows the…
