Start Screen and New Page Screen has a black border as if its minimised
The Start Screen and the New Page screen acts as if it is minimised inside the window (see attachment to understand) until i update the page by minimising and then maximising the application.
as there is no way to minimise the new page screen it is stuck in this state. Started happening all of a sudden tonight. I have tried to turn off gpu acceleration but that has no effect. Tried Uninstalling but also didn't fix the problem.
I have not tested any other pages like preferences to test if it happens on that too but my guess would be…

UI gets 'mangled', rendering it unusable, displays 'eating' each other or disappearing or not appearing, usually starts in 'control' area. Happens after various length of time, no special event triggering it.

Pen Tool - Arrowhead
No objects selected, Pen Tool equipped.
Stroke settings: 2 pt, arrowhead #5 selected for end conditionBug: Place first point and the arrowhead on the end condition reverts to blank (no arrowhead)
Workaround: Resellecting the arrowhead after placing the first point returns the line's behavior to what is expected: arrowhead trailing on the last point drawn.

Zoom to mouse location
Prevously when you zoom with the Mouse (magic Mouse 2) it would zoom to the location of the pointer. Now it seems to just zoom to a random point. I move the mouse pointer and it still zooms to the random point. I want to hover my mouse somewhere and then zoom to that position like previous.

Transform Tool
Entering a number in X then hitting tab to Y and typing in the number is jogging to another number and not applying the number I typed. I have to wait a couple seconds then type in the number for Y. This worked fine two versions ago.

Text and Objects Randomly Rotating
When I move text or an object, I will always notice they get slightly rotated. It's hard for the eye to see it sometimes, but the guide lines will show that things get slightly rotated sometimes for no reason.

Read more about this parameter here, in 'Rotate the x and y axes of a document' section.

Error loading plugins. TorqExtension.aip
I get two errors when I first open up Illustrator. This is the second one I receive. It appears every time I open Illustrator CC 2018. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator from Creative Cloud, but it still appears on startup. I'm on a Windows 7 64-bit machine as well.

Jagged edges and ghost dashed lines when exporting
When exporting a dashboard to jpg or png some gohst white/yellowish outlines appear.
I use plain color without outlines but the outlines appear while zooming in the screen and when I export the artwork. The problem seems to be related to black colorAlso, I used a plain dark red and it is exported as stripped lines fill .
I attach examples of exported images. They were exported with the best quality. I updated the software today (november the 2nd 2017)

Name layer pop up panel appears twice
On macOS 10.12.6, working with a Wacom. If you double-click on a layer to rename it and the panel pops up to rename, clicking OK doesn't get rid of the panel. It re-appears a second time.

Anchor Points Flat Instead of Sharp Points
When I draw a point with the pen tool, sometimes it gives me a nice sharp point, and other times it flattens it like a bad military haircut. If I wanted it flat I'd select the Bevel Join. Instead it takes me several minutes of fiddling with the anchor point angles to get the points, often giving me a curve that I didn't want, and wasting valuable time. It seems to be even worse than usual since the latest update (22.0.0).

Delay of text cursor
- Illustrator 22.0.0 (64-bit).
- There is a delay in the text cursor showing up when it's moved with arrows or a text path is newly clicked, requiring one to wait for it before being able to continue working.
- The text cursor should be immediately visible.
- There is a delay instead of a couple seconds. (That's a long time when making many moves in a row.)

Illustrator CC (2018) will run out of memory and/or crash
Will sip every mb of your memory and won't let me zoom in after that, changes to CPU preview and will tell that there's no memory left and crash.
Happened to me several times in one day alone and with only 2 files open (light vector only).

Align Stroke isn't allowing me to place stroke on outside or inside of line on certain items.. Both options are greyed out.
Since latest update, Align Stroke isn't allowing me to place stroke on outside or inside of the line on certain items. I'm noticing this on both text and vector objects with "holes".

Clipping path in psd file does't work in Illustrator.
On macOS Sierra (Illustrator CC 2018).
Clipping path of psd file does't work in Illustrator CC 2018.
The full of the psd image was shown in Illustrator, ignoring its clipping path.
Same problem has occured in older versions of Illustrator (probably CC or later).There are two conditions for this problem to occur.
One is that the name of the clipping path has Japanese characters.
And the other is that a Mac's system language is set to English.As a test, I tried to change my Mac's system language to Japanese from English, this problem was solved.
