Basic functions not working in Illustrator. Shapes don't have the "smart circles" to resize objects. Working in current version on CC
All of a sudden with a current Mac upgrade Illustrator has gone south. Drawing shapes now doesn't allow for smart reshaping, can't select paths, some files just won't allow ANY changes at all. Working on current CC version, 2018

Tools all become 'locked' requiring reboot (of Illustrator, not OS)
Windows 10, March 2018 Illustrator (latest).
This has happened maybe five or six times now, I think only since the latest update, apparently random occurrence (or I can't spot a common theme). Working on an unlocked layer, all drawing tools get a 'not available' symbol next to them. Can select objects in the layers panel but nowhere else. The only fix is to restart Illustrator - just closing and reopening the document (or indeed another document) does not unlock the tools.

Registered trademark glyph gets randomly swapped to its alternate in text with Gotham Medium font applied when navigating the document
Weird Glyph problem going on. Basically we have registered "R"s on our artworks, and on some occasions the glyph is applying superscript to the superscript "R" making it half the size it should be. Font is Gotham Medium using CC 2018 macOS High Sierra, Suitcase Fusion. Even weird that its changing when I scroll around the artwork to the smaller "R"? any ideas as I'm lost. This was happening also in CC 2017

When corner radius is set to 0px, it reverses to 3px
I have a rectangle, with 3px rounded corners. But when I try to set it to 0px for one specific corner, it is reverted to 3px (not in the input field, only on the look of the rectangle).

Illustrator File Loading Problem
When opening a file Illustrator makes the program window really small then loads the entire file before giving the error message "Not enough room for the document to open" this is extraordinarily inefficient and very embarrassing when sitting with a client, especially seeing as though they are being charged for the time!

Screen rendering issue w/ Illustrator CC 22.1
If I have the "GPU Performance" enabled, my screen goes crazy with just glitches and artifacts everywhere. As soon as I deactivate the GPU rendering, everything is going to be normal again.
My specs :

NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MBI use a dual monitor setup (laptop + an external 23" 1080p monitor). The issue described above only occurs on my 23" (non retina) monitor. I found a temporary trick: I have to drag the affected window on my laptop screen (where everything…

Start-up speed
Illustrator takes 7 seconds to launch on an M.2 SSD - as I have to relaunch the application multiple times during the day to improve performance and reset a number of bugs, this is not really a speedy enough launch time and it needs improving.

Panels stuck under menu bar when using two monitors
When Ai is displayed on a secondary monitor, if that second monitor is off and than on again, all panels get moved back to the primary display, some of them being stuck under the Mac OS menu bar — where it becomes impossible to move the panels again. Fixes include choosing a fresh unused workspace, but repeating the sequence damages that workspace. Also workspaces saved while using a second monitor don't honor that layout when selected again.
Please fix! Thank you.1 vote -

Inaccurate paths
Good day
Before the big update back in 2017, Illustrator's paths were very accurate in terms of using pathfinder tools and intense zooming in. I'm not sure what the new updates were, but it's frustrating.
Attached are screenshots of what I'm talking about. I punched 2 objects (namely black colour and green colour), using the exact same ellipse that I copied and pasted in front. I used to do this all the time, but with better results. Now it's as if it purposely goes out of the accuracy it once had. I'm zoomed in all the way with these screenshots.

variable
Hello,
I use an illustrator file with variables with 100 datasets.
Problem: when switching through datasets via the small triangle buttons recently gives strange popup "the actual values are not captured and will be deleted when switching , continue?" - was not the case before!! i never had this message since 1 year and i nothing changed, apart from the content of the variables.
When clicking button "ok" the next dataset is shown without problem. The problem is that i cannot make a batch processing any more, because this useless message needs to be clicked every time.
I dont understand…
1 votePlease accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience. Looks like the current values in the document that are linked to variable are updated and not captured in new data set. Try capturing new data set and then switch.

"Save as SVG" exports mojibake-parttern-ID when it contains CJK character
Illustrator CC 2018 (v22.1) on Windows 7
When I save the attached document as SVG in any setting, the stripe patterns had gone completely. I checked up the exported SVG file and noticed the pattern ID defines itself correctly, but actual tag id referenced by "xlink:href" attribute is a wrong mojibake-ID.
And I know this will not happen when use "Export for Screen". It export correctly, but not scriptable. I think it very strange...

missing id in exported svg
When I export the attached .ai file to svg, the result does not contain the id of the r14 rectangle.
Before you say "well just add it in manually", please consider that this is a simplified version and that the real thing would contain dozens, even hundreds of objects.
Note that I am not using the artboard. The idea is to use this svg to be animated by the GreenSock javascript library.1 voteThanks a lot Francis for filing the issue. Please feel free to open a new issue if you should experience the issue again or another one.

All Typekit fonts unavailable
All of a sudden Typekit stopped working through Illustrator/Photoshop. I cannot open the CC app on my desktop either. I cannot uninstall it nor reinstall it as none of these functions will work. I am effectively frozen out of my desktop CC app and typekit. When I access Typekit via the webpage it shows my snyced fonts but I cannot access them on my desktop (PC). I am unable to complete my work. I have been troubleshooting this since Monday and would like to talk one on one with someone who can talk me through what to do. I am…
