Key object selection mismatch
When I select two objects and choose the key object for allignment, the top allignment option shows the «Align to key object» and object gets highlighted, however if I go to the sidebar to introduce a spacing number it shows «Align to selection» instead and I need to change the option again. This is so frustrating.

Illustrator Library Place Copy a Vector Broken
Illustrator 23.0.0.1 (64 bit) - Windows.
I have created some custom icons. Saved them as SVG.
Opened up these SVGs and then added to a Library.
On click place copy on a new art board. The vector is totally corrupt. (see attachment.)
The icons are correctly designed and all lines expanded.
If I place link they appear fine. (obviously I then cannot edit)
If I click edit they appear fine. (Using edit to open then cut and paste at the moment)4 votes -
Scale tool bug with Shift+Alt
window 10 / cc2019 (been seeing this issue in 2018 and 2017 too)
Scale tool selected
press shift+Alt
click anywhere on the workareaThis sends illustrator nuts: the scaling cursor doesn't stick to the place you click, nor it goes away. No other tool is selectable, no action can be taken. After minutes (actual minutes) the scaling tool popup window appears, then you can close it and go on woth the work.
I know this tool is not supposet to do anything with shift+alt+click but often i keep those keys by mistake. This would be easily solved with an exception…

Hi,
in Ai CC2019 I cannot scale a horizontal line via the center box handle. The only way to it, is to use the direct selection tool (A).

Text edits have no undo, do not trigger file as updated
When editing a block of text. Back delete key does not work and forward delete key deletes from start of block instead of cursor/insertion point. Text has to be highlighted to be deleted. Undo for deleted text is unavailable. Document does not indicate any changes and can be closed without a save dialog and thus losing edits.

General Performance Issues and Font Issues
The Issue that I'm having see screenshots happens randomly in adobe applications like Illustrator.
I followed the instruction the adobe support gave me with the link, but there where no issue so I send you the last step, more details. Re-install fonts or Creative Cloud etc. don't solve the problem. I have this problems here and there since more than a year now.
macOS Mojave Version 10.14.02 (Issue appears also in older versions)
The latest Issue I have sometimes is, If I save the Illustrator file and saving is done, Illustrator jumps back 3-4 steps (undo). So after I save…

SVG Exports Incorrectly - messes up art work
I have drawn a simple oval that exports correctly.
I then made 20 copies, and it exports as SVG correctly.
I then made 20 more copies (so I have 40 of these oval shapes) in two columns side-by-side. The first column exports correctly, the second column some of the ovals are longer, some are shorter and the horizonal position shifts back and forth.Used the Export Selection command. Have tried all different SVG parameters, have tried switching the columns, nothing has worked.

Stop asking about switching to the Touch interface
I have a laptop with a touch screen (that I never use, and never intend to use). Every time I open Illustrator, it tells me that it has detected that I am using a touch enabled screen and asks if I want to switch. I would be VERY appreciative if you could make this pop up with a "don't ask me again on this computer" checkbox as it is really annoying as it not always obvious that it has popped up and it makes the screen unresponsive.
3 votesHi,
Sorry to hear that this dialog was annoying you so much. I am glad to share that this has been removed from the latest release of Illustrator. Please upgrade to latest version to get rid of this issue.
Thanks

Distorted dashes at small sizes
OS: Windows 10
Adobe Illustrator 23.0.1When creating dashed lines at small sizes, the lines are distorted. See attached image - weight is .1mm, dash size is .1mm. The line is perfectly straight, the profile is uniform and the "Preserve exact" option is enabled.
The type and amount of distortion seems to vary depending on the line's position in the document as well. Moving the pictured line 2 mm to the right means the distortion is suddenly vertical rather than horizontal.
This is of course not a major issue as long as the illustration is only meant to be viewed…

Type Box fills with x's
When I choose the Type Box tool, and click in the document to create a Type Box or simply place text, as soon as the box is created, it fills with X's/squares and goes off on it's own continually typing the X/square.
At that point I am not touching the keyboard, there is no key being held down, yet it seems to be "stuck" in creating the X/square.
Initially it only happened with Myriad Pro, so I uninstalled that font. Then it continued to do it with Arial. Now it does it, no matter what. I've un-installed Illustrator and re-installed…

Adobe Color Themes pop up is unnecessary and obstructive.
When using the Adobe Color Themes panel, there's a pop up that says "Click to set active color" when you hover over color swatches. You can't click on the color beneath the pop up without first moving the mouse off of the pop up. It makes using the color themes panel slow and obnoxious. Please either move the location of the pop up off of the swatches one is trying to access, or remove it altogether (or give us an option to disable it)
Turning off "Show Tool Tips" in preferences doesn't fix the issue.
It is also an issue…

Color blend control panel
Trying to change a fill in a preexisting color blend. Control panel only allows shifting the current blend, not adding or changing color. Any time the color pallet is selected, the blend control box disappears. Adobe is adding more features is cool, but taking away the basic features we've had for years is uncool.
