Unwanted bounding box
I'm working on a
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)
Processor 2,2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel Iris Pro 1536 MBTwo bounding boxes appear in my .ai file they wouldn't have bothered me if it weren't for the fact that they distort the design on export.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,

Video driver is not supported
Windows 10
Illustrator v 25.2
Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600, Version 20.19.15.5171 (04.11.2020)
What can I do? I have updated the driver, but the report is still there. Do I get instability and data loss if I suppress this report or deactivate some features in the preferences?2 votes -
SVG Import damaged
Windows 10 latest, Illustrator 25.2
Importing a Svg vector city map, the street names are not rendered any more. The file works perfect in Inkscape and any Browser, but since some versions of Illustrator they are gone. Installing the latest available 24.3 version, the problem persists.
Is there a download option for older versions since 24.3, since some versions before it worked over years.
File upload doesn't seem to work here neither...2 votes -
The pencil tool doesn't close the path when you draw small objects
If you draw a small dot with pencil tool it will not close the path. That little circle under the cursor indicating that it will close the path never pops up. So now you have to zoom in if you want to draw small shapes and get a closed path.
Changing the number in the "Close paths when ends are within:" doesn't do anything so that's not the problem. It's a new bug.
This was no issue in CS6. You could hold "Alt" to close the path no matter how tiny shapes you were drawing.

Actual Size View not to depend on Artboard
Actual Size View command (cmd+1) brings you to 100% Artboard view instead of 100% current view. If you are drawing way off any artboard, that command takes you to a completely different place from where you are.
Instead, I expect this command to have the same result as typing 100% in Navigator window or double-clicking Zoom tool.
I would also appreciate it if it respected the settings in Prefs>Selection>Zoom to Selection checkbox (currently the zoom box at the bottom of the window respects that, but the same box in Navigator panel doesn’t — which also looks like a bug).

Workspaces destroyed when unplugging laptop from second monitor.
MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019)
2.4 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9
16 GB 2667 MHz DDR4
AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 4 GB
Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MBI work with two monitors. One is the desktop and the other is all of my open panels. When I unplug the second monitor from my MacBook Pro (or if it goes to sleep) it jams all of the open panels onto the one display and then SAVES the corrupted workspace. I’ve got over 20 corrupted workspaces at this point.
When I plug the second monitor back in, it doesn't fix itself, it's…

Pencil tool fidelity issue when smoothing lines added anchor points NEW AI VERSION
The pencil tool is not responding to the fidelity even if is 100% smooth it will add anchor points making the drawing really wobbly. I noticed this only happens on the new Illustrator2021 version running on Mojave 11.1. Seems to be a common issue currently See link below:

Latest Version just quits on its own
Luckily I was in front of my computer as it happened so I could save the current files that were open but without needing an update to Illustrator or the OS, the app suddenly just started a quit sequence on its own.

Pantone Connect
Hi there,
When trying to load the Pantone Connect Extension I see a black window instead of the swatches and other features of the extension. The only message I see is a purple link that says “reload plugin” which has no effect when I click on it. This was the case for the 2020 version when I tried it today, so I updated all my apps, thinking this might help. However, the same error occurs with the 2021 versions of Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign. When I last used the extension in summer last year, it worked great… has there been…

Kerning not working between first two characters of any word
No matter what I do, I can't adjust the kerning between the first two characters of any word in illustrator. The rest of the word can be spaced just fine, just not between the the first two letters. Please help, this is sort of an essential duty of this software.

Select Next Object Below
Running Windows 10 (64-bit) and the latest version of Adobe Illustrator. The bug I am experiencing is the shortcut to Select Next Object Below (Alt+Ctrl+[) is not working properly. Neither is the Select Next Object Above, nothing new is selected when I press the buttons, it remains on my already selected layer which is neither the top most or bottom most.

Can't place circle or square in middle of other circle or square.
On circle tool.
1) Draw a circle
2) Go to the middle of the circle to draw another cirlce.
3) It does not let me. (Changes to some selection tool)This did not used to happen in older versions of illustrator. When it changed I just lived with it, but working on a file now where I have to create a bunch of objects in middle of other objects and its driving me mad. Anyway to revert it back to the way it used to be? (probably worked fine in about 2010)

Unit increments for Large canvas documents have fractions
Since the introduction of the large canvas sizes (which is awesome, by the way) I have been noticing that my increments of measure particularly in type and keyboard increments within the preferences have been scaling down to microscopic numbers when I change from feet to inches or points. I then get these odd numbers when scaling type with the keyboard shortcuts.
