Too many bugs. Laggy!
Too much bugs.. Can't open two files at the same time. Stuck at the Recent files screen. Regret getting this version installed.. Nobody check this in adobe before it goes live for download? We are not testers, we pay to use it in our companies for our clients. Do not release new versions full of bugs pls! I beg you ADOBE!

FreeForm Gradient point should also move on transforming Freeform Art
Today I ran into a problem with Adobe Illustrator artwork featuring some freeform gradient fills. I had a to create flipped, mirrored version of it for printing purposes (graphics would be applied sub-surface to a sign face). The problem is the freeform gradient fills wouldn't flip with the rest of the artwork. I attached a visual example of it. Using the "expand appearance" command allowed for the artwork to be flipped 180° correctly. It would be nice if I could avoid that kind of a fix.
20 votesI am glad to update that this issue was fixed in 23.0.6 release.
Thank you for all the feedback.

Freeform gradient line stops disappearing
The freeform gradient tool is very cool in its flexibility but I have encountered some major bugs with the line option. I can create the line stops but if I change the opacity of a stop from 100% then stops along the line most of the time one or more stops disappear.
Sometimes just clicking or clicking and moving a stop makes stops disappear as well.
It makes the tool unusable. Hopefully, it will become more reliable in a future release.

Type resizing issue in Illustrator CC 2019 v23.0.1
If I try to change the point size of a typeface on type that is indeed selected (any typeface - not specific to any one in particular), while I can select or type in a specific size in the type "window" (cmd T to open, or I just open it from my docked windows) it has no effect on the actual size. I can change the size using the panel across the top (see attached screen cap) just fine.
This just started happening today. I've done no updates related to my OS (latest version for Mac of Mojave) or Illustrator.

SVG scalingunit
Hello,
Is there an option to export a svg file in mm ?
it looks like from Illustrator the svg file is exported in "px" , so when imported in a CAD package the scale is not good.
And I can't find the good ratio to retrieve the right dimensions.1 vote -

Illustrator ignores ‘Use Preview Bounds’ setting unless multiple objects are selected
Not much more to say. Single object selected? Bounding box ignores the object's stroke. Multiple objects selected? Bounding box encompasses the stroke.

Workspace window falls off the page
The newest update does not fix the issue I am having with the workspace window falling off the page when I try to drag the bottom right corner to better fit my art/desktop as needed. Does not respond to the position of my mouse, I have to over exaggerate where I want it while I click and drag my mouse.
1 voteKimberly, the image you attached to the report is not related to it, and shows a screenshot of the UV page instead.
So if you are still having this problem, please provide a proper screenshot or maybe a video even, if necessary. Either way, please comment back on this.

What video formats can we upload to bug requests?
I used to be able to upload videos to the bug reports but now no matter what format I seem to choose, I get a note that the format cannot upload. Furthermore, the bug report gets posted anyway without notice so if I try to upload a different format the post is double posted.
Can you please tell us what types of formats are allowed?
Can you change the bug report form so that when an unsupported video format is selected there's a warning or indication before pressing the post idea button OR if an unsupported format is selected and…

Missing workspace when using external monitors
When I use my external Monitors (Dell, only 3 month old) in combination with my newest generation MacBook Pro Illustrator crashes all the time when the monitors are set into standby-mode. Strange to say this issue only appears when the monitors are in standby-mode for more than 10 Seconds!
After 10 seconds waking them up illustrator only shows one of my tool-options. No toolbar, oder canvas. At the moment it's really hard for me to work with this issue because i need to restart illustrator all the time to get rid of it.
in my overview illustrator shows up, but…

Change Scale tool behavior - revert back to scaling proportionately, shift & drag
macOs Sierra 10.12.6
Illustrator 23.0.1 - Scale tool doesn't work the same as it's been for years!! Ugh!
Please revert to the legacy behavior of scaling shapes, images and text proportionately by using the scale tool + holding shift key and drag to enlarge or reduce size of shape proportionately. This way has been burned in my brain for many, many, many years. My fingers move faster than I can think, and now my logos turn out wonky unless I scale it the long way, by opening up the scale tool and typing in percentages!! No thanks.
For now, how…

Alignment Tool is Off
I'm using the alignment tool to center a logo onto it's artboard. Both the logo and the artboard are 500px by 500px, but when I use the align tool the logo is off by a couple px. It's barely noticeable until I export to png, then I can see that the circle is cut off slightly.
Any help?

Trying to package an illustrator file is met with 'could not complete package' message. No further explanation is provided. This is an inconsistent error, it seems more common when the file contains .eps links.
