High Sierra: "Package" function doesn't work
Hi everyone. On High Sierra the "Package" function doesn't work properly (Illustrator 21.1.0). The fonts are packed completely, the links sometimes too, but often there are a lot missing links. The document itself is not saved into the packed folder. A message appears, that the packaging couldn't be done.

reflection tool
AI 21.1
create a hollow compound path with two rectanglesround one of the corners
make an off-centre reflection with either tool palette or from transform menu
the inner path gets reflected but the outer path only gets moved to where it is expected
the 'preview' is correct but when I release the mouse any path having at least one rounded corner gets rotated 90º clockwise2 votes -
Flickering Cursor
The cursor constantly flickers after I opened Illustrator 3 months ago, and I cannot type anything anywhere in my laptop. Before that, I could use this software normally. Really annoying, please fix it.

High Sierra MacOS 10.13 Illustrator and navigation
When I use Command+Tab to navigate between programs, I have to hide all open programs to see Illustrator's interface. The open palettes will display, but not the the document window, toolbar, application bar. When I try to hide Illustrator, only the palettes respond. Illustrator is generally sluggish with High Sierra.

IllustratorSaveOptions in C# .NET is not working anymore as expected
For more than a decade the following Illustrator script has been applied via C# .NET in combination with all existing Illustrator versions (sourcecode):
typelib.IllustratorSaveOptions saveOptions = new typelib.IllustratorSaveOptions();
saveOptions.Compatibility = typelib.AiCompatibility.aiIllustrator8;
saveOptions.FlattenOutput = typelib.AiOutputFlattening.aiPreserveAppearance;
DestDoc.SaveAs(sPath, saveOptions);All over the internet we see a lot of people using the same code above (applying the exact same idea) also in other programming languages.
Following test has been done with Illustrator versions CS, CS2, CS3, CS5, CS6, etc. on the latest Windows 10 operating system and VS2012: draw 2 intersecting rectangles: above yellow, the other red. A transparency Difference has been set on…

Artboard list drops off when saving
With multiple artboards setup. "Save a copy" to EPS and select "Use Artboards" Select "all".
EPS's export fine, artboards still in there, but artboard listing drops all but top artboard. If you click around a bit, they re-appear.

pen tool game
https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/illustrator/how-to/pen-tool-game.html
This game has been a valuable resource for teaching Illustrator. However, the game has been broken now, and Adobe do not seem to care or register the problem.
The resources you provide to teach and support products are an important part of the package. It does not look good to see such neglect of what was an excellent idea.
I would even like to see more of these interactive learning experiences, as it is more engaging and useful than most other types such as videos.
Obviously there is some maintenance of a web game, but it should be easy…

Cannot open multiple files
- Version 21.1.0 (windows)
- Selecting multiple files, right clicking to open all files
- Expected results that all files open the same way I have been opening files for years.
- Only one file opens and locks illustrator, need to close out program through task manager, restart computer and that sometimes fixes the issue. If not I have to uninstall and reinstall illustrator and that fixes the issue for a day or two.

Crashes on "Cancel" in Keyboard Shortcuts Window
- Illustrator CC 2017 (21.1.0)
- Pressed "Cancel" in the Keyboard Shortcuts window.
- Expected Keyboard Shortcuts window to close without saving changes.
- Illustrator crashes
No plugins installed.
Removing preferences resolves the bug, but something in the process of re-setting my preferences makes the bug return.
Please let me know if you require further information.

Text selection not showing highlighting after macOS High Sierra 10.13 download
When selecting any text, the text is not highlighted, thus removing my ability to know what I have selected. I am running a mid 2010 MacBook Pro. All was working well until I updated to macOS High Sierra 10.13. I have done all work arounds with no success.

Shortcuts stop working
Sometimes my shortcuts on the keyboard just stops working, so I can't press cmd+d to duplicate, or copy etc, while I'm able to press Spacebar to move around.
they just deactivate by themselves, while other's continue to work. To resolve this, I have to restart the program every time, even after short periods of working on the current project.The current project isn't even graphic intensive, but I get this issue. This has happened before a few times.

Swatches disappear
I've been experiencing this phenomena in which my swatches would disappear every now and then. One day, I'll have all the default swatches available in the swatch menu, other days, it'll only be the color white.
