Unite on Pathfinder leaves mess of little vectors
This is something that happens to me frequently when creating underbases for screen printing. I'll make a copy of my top colors and unite them to create my base, and there's a mess of little vectors left behind that have to be cleaned up before I can trap the base. There's no gaps in the art so these vectors should not be there and this is a big lag on my production time.
6 votesAs per the comment, you can adjust the Pathfinder precision in Pathfinder Options dialog, accessible from the Pathfinder’s panel flyout menu. The higher the value, the less accurate the result is going to be. Lesser values gives more precision, but it can lead to many 'residuals'. The default value is 0.028 pt, but you might try something like 0.01 pt and see if it works better.

DrawArt Suite issue on OS 10.13 and CC 2018
I'm using the AIDrawArtSuite to render objects in my plug-in.
This function works fine on windows and os x for CC, CC 2014, CC 2015, CC 2017 and CC 2018 except for macOS 10.13
On my macbook pro 2014 with a nvidia card and OS 10.13.2, the result is not correct.
If I'm disabling the GPU performance, the result is now correct.1 voteHi,

as if the shift key is stuck (all functions and operations)
After installing the new version, when in Illustrator, shift key has to be held down or things don't work. It's as if the shift key is pressed and I have to press it to release it, if you know what I mean. If I try to select a new tool and click it in the tool panel - nothing happens. If I hit the shift key and do the same again - works fine.

Font Suggestion and Cursor misbehaving
I'm already feeling a lot of regret for updating to CC 2018!
Now anytime I want to change a font, and I start typing in the name, no suggestions come up. Sometimes, the cursor jumps backwards and start inserting characters midway. I feel frustrated and fed up.1 voteHi Love,
Looks like your setting is set to “Search First work only”. Click on the search icon and from the drop down select “Search Entire Font Name”
Thanks

Click and touch release problems Illustrator CC 2018 Mac High Sierra - cause dictation software
Illustrator v 22.0.1, Mac OS High Sierra on Macbook Pro 2016, touch bar, 2.9GHz Intel core i7, 16GB 2133MHz LPDDR3
Clicking, tapping, with trackpad or wireless mouse (Kensington wireless Turbo Mouse trackball): click/tap does not release, so the object is highlighted or selected and stuck to the cursor as you move it around.
In the layers palette, (The new Properties/Layers) clicking/tapping a layer lock to unlock it may unlock it with a delay, or lock/relock it. The same goes for view/hide visibility for layers. The response is difficult to interpret, possibly because of delays. But it not possible to use…

Illustrator opening as trial and not recognizing current subscription
when opening illustrator from CC app manager or directly from start menu,
illustrator does not allow to open full version even though I have pro subscription. There is a button to buy now but that just takes me to purchase an additional subscription which I'm paid up for. I really need to use Illustrator soon as possible. Thanks1 votePlease get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html .
Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.Warm Regards,

Transform Each always uses visible preview bounds instead of expected geometric bounds, ignoring the state of Use Preview Bounds option
Rotate via Transform Each incorrectly places reference point.
1. Version: AI-CC 22.0.0
2. Steps taken:
Objects: Triangles with 1:1 height/width ratios. Stroked with stroke centered on vector and sharp corners.
Operation: Rotation via Transform Each command with a centered reference point.Expected result:
Since the vector was contained within a square bounding box (1:1 H:W), I expected the triangles to rotate without changing XY location.Actual result:
Rotations happened off-center, slightly moving the triangle toward the point that did not align with one of the bounding-box corners.
Additional Testing:
I tested the behavior of both the Rotate tool and the…7 votes -

Layer Options Color Changes/Problem
I use Illustrator on an iMac. With the upgrade to CC 2018, the following happened:
1) In the Layers Palette, all layers colored Cyan changed to Yellow;
2) All layers colored Magenta changed to Cyan.By itself, this is not a terrible problem (disregarding Yellow as a terrible layer color to begin with!) The problem comes when I try to change them back.
When I open the Layer Options for a particular layer, I used to hit 'Tab' to take me to the Color, then 'C' to get Cyan. Now, it brings up a Custom window that I have to…

Selection tolerance issues using pen
When I'm using Surface Pen on my Surface Book Illustrator randomly starts to select nearest top objects instead of the highlighted one. It starts randomly but very often. Opening preferences and checking-unchecking anything then pressing OK temporary fixes this issue. If i'm using touchpad - everything is ok.
I've already reported this bug to Windows Ink Team (windowsink@microsoft.com), but am duplicating it here, because i'm not sure what is causing this issue. Windows 10 and Adobe apps were updated on the same day for me and both of them have a lot of issues, not only when i'm…1 vote -
Breaking link of scaled Symbol with "Scale strokes and effects" off will scale Symbol appearance back to original.
Illustrator CC 2018
Windows 10I have put a Symbol on my Artboard, and scaled it to 50% of its original size.
I want to break its link, and maintain its proportional appearance (i.e. stroke width half of original).
If "Scale strokes and effects" is off, stroke sizes are doubled (back to original value). You have to tick it on for it to work as expected.Is this a bug or a feature?
In the attached image, to the left is the Symbol (at 50% scale) broken with tick on, to the right off.

Editing a small CC Library object breaks the thumbnail
Editing small CC Library items leads to imminent damage to it's thumbnail.
1 Create an object in Illustrator (for testing purpose make it 4pt x 4pt)
2 Add it to cc library (noth that thumbnail is generated properly)
3 Edit the cc lib. object in illustrator (anything will do just add a rectangle anywhere on the canvas)
4 Save/close the CC lib objectExpected: the thumbnail is updated and represents the content of the CC item
Observed: the thumbnail is ridiculously small/not readableCheck the screenshots and video attached.
