Issues with changing font type
I am using Illustrator 22.0.1 to design a logo. I've tried this on both my MacBook Pro and on my iMac and had the same thing happened:
With the document open, I double-clicked on of the words to get the Type panel to open on the right. I then made my selection with the Type tool and then clicked the font drop down menu to change the font and started scrolling.
I need to be able to scroll through the font dropdown menu to browse the fonts so I can make a selection.
Instead, the font menu bugs out and…

Text block cursor not indicating the actual cursor location.
Text block cursor not indicating the actual cursor location.
This has happened a few times to me, but is not consistent.When editing text in a type block I use the pointer to hi light the area where changes are required but the changes occur at a different point in the text.
I have attached an image to clarify this - the black editing block is hi lighting the additional space I intend to delete but the actual character deleted is a few characters away (in this case the letter 'f' which shows with a blue edit line in this…5 votes -

High Sierra disables Illustrator
Since updating to High Sierra last week every time I go to open Illustrator the spinning wheel appears and is never resolved. I chatted with support last week and was told I needed to contact Apple as it's a compatibility issue. They were also not able to help.

Scaling bug in Illustrator 22.01
Hi, I'm working on files in which I have to scale objects down precisely with multiple digits behind the comma.
When scaling the artwork in multiple (3) layers down to 18,602% everything looks good. But when using one digit more, 18,6023%, the artwork is scaled down much more, which is incorrect. I need to use even more digits, but that's impossible like this. I've attached screenshots.I'm on an iMac Retina 5K, 27 inch, 2017 running MacOS X 10.3.3 with the latest version of Illustrator, 22.01.
I'm using mm als units, so maybe it's a rounding issue. I can reproduce…

accept both full stop and comma as decimal separator
Illustrator is very picky when it comes to entering decimal fractions in input fields. E.g. when using Dutch as keyboard language, the . is not allowed, and ignored, so we have to use the comma, which does not reside on the num keypad.
Please make Ai accepting both the . and the ' as a decimal separator.13 votes -
Drag-n-drop across documents to locked layer warning
Please see the animation.
I have two documents, one with current layer is locked.
When I try to drag my artwork from other document (in this locked layer, about which I very often don't remember), AI should have said something about 'You are attempting to paste or drag into one or more layers that are locked or hidden. Do you want to unlock and show all appropriate layers?'...But in my case it does not.
I remember seeing it from time to time, but often it stops appearing.
I have nothing as result, no warning, no message, nothing.
And it's…15 votesI am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 27.1.1 which is available worldwide now.
Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

Both Free Transform tool and bounding box treat narrow objects wrong
I don't use bounding box. It messes with my corner and middle points, it occasionally resizes my art when I just want to drag it by it's side and so on — so I always turn it of.
When I need to scale anything, I pick up Free transform tool.
Alas, both of these marker-ish tools have same problem — they treat narrow objects completely WRONG.See the file attached.
For example, I have a perfectly aligned and sized magenta strip.First, I try to use Free Transform tool to make it taller. AI transform my path not from the…

Offset pen tool
When I try to draw with the pen tool the point is a couple points offset from where I click with the cursor. I have the latest version of Illustrator on my MacBook Pro and it just started doing this while I was in the middle of a project. I've tried restarting Illustrator but that didn't fix anything.

Send to back
I am busy working on a big logo project on illustrator, using only one layer. I started filling up the art-boards and space available. However, after only using about a third of the available space the send to back feature wouldn't work. It would register the object as infront of the other object but it wouldn't show the object I placed infront.
I am a 14 year old student at the International School Eindhoven.

Export As jpegs show in recent files
Using File > Export > Export as (Jpeg with artboards) makes a load of lovey jpegs from my artboards.
However all of them show up in the recent files view, making it harder to find the actual recent file I was working on. (Espeically as all the jpegs have the same thumbnail showing all art boards - like the original file. Given Illustrator can't even do much with jpeg files why are they shown at all?
