Text path vanishes when moving it with selection tools (black or white arrows)
Since updating to version 24.1.2 from Adobe Illustrator 2019, whenever I move text objects using any of the selection arrows, the highlighted path disappears during moving and only reappears when I stop moving the text object. This is frustrating as I can't see the baseline or centre point of the text object while trying to align it to something else. This never happened before I updated Illustrator. My OS is macOS Mojave 10.14.6, Illustrator version 24.1.2.

Thanks Egor, I voted for your request. It's a lovely feature but I have to turn it off half the time as I need to see the edges and text baseline/centrepoints!

Debbie, I made several comments on this already, but here's a separate request you can vote for:

It seems this is linked to the real-time drawing and editing feature. If I deactivate that in Ill. prefs then the problem disappears. However, I love the smoothness of the real-time feature and want to use it. Any way to allow type paths/points to be retained while using this feature?
