Using the direct selection tool on a path, whilst holding ‘shift’ to drag causes crashes/can’t preview.
Mac Mojave 10.14.1 > Illustrator 23.0.1.
This issue does one of 3 things:
1/ the path repeatedly snaps back to the origin (Annoying).
2/ the path extends vertically top to bottom off the artboard causing ‘cannot preview’ issue. Although this is fixed with an undo and selecting view using GPU/CPU. (Really Annoying).
3/ Illustrator hangs and becomes unresponsive (basically hammers my system resources) and I have to force quit or it just crashes. (Ridiculously Annoying).
