  1. Not being able to grab smaller objects

    I don't know exactly when this changed but I noticed how system has a much lower grabbable distance around things. I end up toggling a lot between the outline view ctrl+Y and selecting things that way which is not efficient.
    we always have a lot of fills and effects, so when I try to grab things I'm always grabbing shadows that are so much larger than the line it came from so I have to use it a lot. This didnt use to happen before with older versions, can this be improved for future upgrades?

  2. Shortcut keys not shown or working for items in Objects menu and in other menus.

    Many but not all shortcut keys are not shown in the Object menu or operate as in previous version! This is a major setback for my type of work. Can't quickly Group/Ungroup, Zoom, UNDO, Copy,Paste,stacking order, other functions. Browsing the menus shows only a few shortcut keys. Same in all workspaces. Please put them back as in the previous version!

  4. "Tab" key shortcut not working properly in Illustrator 2021

    When you hit the Tab key the panels disappear leaving the control panel and menu bar at the top. This part works fine. However, when you hover over the side to make either side panel reappear, they reappear UNDER the work area, not on top of it as usual. You can see the very edges of the panels sliding in and out under the work area making the feature useless.

  9. 2021 Crashing my desktop

    When my iMac pro falls asleep it has started crashing directly after the update for AI 2021, the last handful of changes have not warranted the instability that we now have. I'm completely dependent on Adobe for my career, I have been using this suit since it's inception. Aldus Freehand had more built in options 25 years ago than even todays AI, comparatively. I'm so upset with the last two years of compromises, I'm about to consider a new profession. Along with the adulterated instant upgrades and no legacy option, I'm just beside myself.

    Can I just get an unadulterated…

  13. Transparency / Blending Modes stuck

    I experience regularly that Transparency and Blending modes doe not relfect what the controls / parameters say.

    An example in the screenshots: the Triangles with the green Gradient are Blending Mode Normal / 100% (have been transparent before, but switched back). On white everything seems normal, but as soon as the blue background is switched on, we see that the blending mode is not Normal. The selection is not part of a Group.

  19. Distribuisci Spaziatura non funziona con oggetto chiave

    Su MacOs 10.15.7 (19H2), l'opzione Distribuisci Spaziatura con una SPECIFICA DISTANZA trasforma i mm in punti.
    Se immetto una distanza di 30 mm tra gli oggetti, ad esempio, Illustrator allinea gli oggetti mantenendo una spaziatura di 10,583 mm (30 pt). 10 mm diventano 3,528 mm (10 pt), etc.
