Can’t select a hyphen at the start of the line
テキストツールで半角英数字で入力したものが、後になって選択できなくなる場合があるようです。
「- 2022 -」と入力したあと、修正しようとしたら、最初の「- 」が選択出来ません。
Illustrator converts a hyphen at the start of the line to a bulleted list, unless the 'Automatic Bulleted and Numbered lists while typing' option (enabled by default) is not turned off.
These converted markers can’t be selected, unless you convert the text back with the dedicated button in the Paragraph menu.
But be warned though, that sometimes disabling the auto-conversion does not work, and hyphen and other characters still force Illustrator to create a list.

Thanks Egor for helping out! :)

I’m glad I could help. I am closing the issue.
But be warned though, that this option sometimes does not help to disable the auto-conversion.

It didn't bother me until the previous version, so I wasn't aware of that option. Problem solved.
Thank you very much. -
The problem is in the auto-conversion to a bulleted list.
The hyphen gets converted in the bullet marker.
You can remove it in the Paragraph panel, like the screenshot 1 displays.
If you want to disable auto-conversion you can uncheck the option in the Preferences > Type, the option at the bottom, like the screenshot 2 shows.
Does it help you? -
