1. DXF files on a Mac interpreted wrongly

   I often have to import DXF drawing files of model glider plans. For a few years now, over several versions of Illustrator, I noticed that I am missing lines and solved the problem by selecting the missing and finding similar stroke weights, hoping it would find them all.

   Today I had a discussion over Skype with a friend who runs Illustrator on a PC on which the plan files view perfectly correctly, so there appears to be a problem in the Mac Illustrator version. I have attached a pdf file showing the difference in display

2. transform rotate not working as it should

   Draw a vertical line.

   Choose Object > Rotate

   Change the degrees and click Copy.

   The original has now rotated the chosen amount and made a copy at the same time.

   The original vertical line should still be there, and a new one (the copy) should be at an angle. Not both rotated.

4. Lag and Illustrator "Not Responding" after copy command

   The platform is: Illustrator 23.0.6 64-bit, on Win10 Enterprise 1903 latest updates, and with nVidia drivers R430 U5 (431.70).

   The bug is that Illustrator freezes for ~5 seconds after/during a simple copy command, and "Not Responding" is displayed on the top title bar. This can be induced by just opening a new file, drawing a rectangle, then trying to copy it (with Ctrl-C or with the menu command).

   This is destroying my workflow...

6. Moving paths very slow if not dragged at the center

   Ex: Create a circle
   click at the center of the circle with a selection tool and drag. The path moves fast as expected. But if click elsewhere on the circle and drag, the path moves very slowly.

7. Illustrator file closes without warning/saving if accidentally re-opened while canceling errors / relink prompts

   If you unintentionally open an Illustrator file to open it but realize it was one that was already open, it's possible to lose any changes you've made to that file without warning.

   Steps to repeat:
   1. Open a file that results in a dialog box to show before completely opening (mismatched color profile, missing links, etc).
   2. Modify the document in some way, but do not save it.
   3. Return to Explorer and open the file again.
   4. When the Illustrator brings up a dialog box, click cancel instead of ok.
   5. The document you had open will close without prompting to save.

8. Adobe Sketch inaccurate. No Product against which to report

   Please See forum post entitled “Adobe sketch accuracy questioned”

   On iPad Air, iOS 12.4, Sketch 4.7.1 drawing occurs displaced from centre of stylus, toward to of device.

   Gave up using Sketch in Sep 2017 as this was a show stopper for me. I don’t understand how anybody can use it like this. It is such a fundamental issue that I cannot believe it has not been addressed. Others in the forum post discussion agreed it was a bug and the question seems to have been answered - it is a bug.

   Came back to look at Sketch again 2 years later - still the same.

   I would love some explanation from Adobe as to how they can just ignore this

9. Simplify preview problem

   When I choose Path > Simplify… and have the preview button checked, the simplification happens as many times as I adjust the percentage. ie it will simply to 99% and the 97% of 99%.
   Whether I click OK or Cancel, all of the actions have been performed and I have to press undo until it is back to normal.
   This problem arrived at the same time as the scale/rotate/reflect etc preview issue (which have now been fixed thank god).

11. Show Character Alternates

    "Show Character Alternates" checkbox under the Type preference pane is not clickable. While trying to disable the annoying Glyph popup window I discovered that I cannot change this preference setting. I was able to change the setting by manually directly editing Illustrators preference file manually which reflects the change when relaunching the program, however it can not be changed through the UI.

    MacOS Sierra 10.12.8
    Illustrator 23.0.4

    Minor bug. To reproduce:

13. Raster images should always honor the layer order and transparency values when scaling/moving/rotating

    When moving/rotating/scaling Raster images should always honor the layer order and transparency values.

    With "show images in outline mode" selected, I often drop in low res raster images on the bottom layer and outline them with the pen tool in higher level layers.. problem is the way illustrator handles raster images. If i draw a line on top of a raster image, then attempt to scale that raster image, my line is temporarily hidden while scaling, moving or rotating the raster image, making it nearly impossible to re-align my raster image to match newly drawn vector lines. Also, raster images with transparency are temporarily opaque when moving/scaling/rotating. so any foreground lines i may want to use for a scale reference are invisible when using the move/rotate/scale operations.

15. Illustrator looses workspace settings

    Good day. My problem is that I worked for a very long time in Adobe Photoshop (cs3,4,5,6, cc). But Ai surprised me - to make a backup of the workspace I have to go to AppData / Roaming / Adobe / Illustrator etc. and make a copy of the folder, because when I open a new document, I get a completely different space. (Export/import settings do not help) Why can’t you transfer the settings to the program, and not to the open document? Every time I do as I feel comfortable and every time I reduce the Tool panel, because it opens in two columns. Why complicate this?

17. Some of AI file paths disappear when exporting to PNG or JPG

    A simple AI file containing the logo and text (all outlined) is saved fine as AI or PDF, but if I try to export it to PNG or JPG, some of the paths contained within the image disappear and are not rendered in the resulting raster file. I am attaching the master AI file, and the rendered PNG file (created by going to File > Export As > PNG). As you will see, the rendered PNG file is missing the ALFRA name within the square white shape. FYI, I sent the file over to a friend of mine and he was able to export the file to PNG fine using CS5 version of AI. It seems there is a bug that prevents the correct export of a vector file to a raster image.
    I checked all the settings and everything looks ok. Cannot figure out the issue.

18. Why did you add a stroke to the Layer Thumbnail of empty layers?

    In previous versions of Illustrator, if you deleted all the content of a layer or sublayer, you could immediately see that it was empty because its thumbnail in the Layers palette lost its stroke. Now all layer thumbnails have a border regardless. This was a very useful feature, and I can't imagine why it would deliberately be removed. Can you please add it back?

19. Guides with an angle won't move when zoomed in 300% or more (Illustrator CC 23.0.3)

    I hope I chose the right category.
    Illustrator will not allow me to move smart guides that have any angle to them when Im zoomed in to 300% or more. This is extremely "I about to break my keyboard" frustrating. This seems to be an on going issue that is "patched" but re-emerges with every other update!
