Can't constrain Curvature tool with Shift while moving points
When using Curvature tool while drawing a line you can use the Shift key to constrain the new point to certain dimensions like you would with pen tool, but if you go back and try to move a point later, the shift key seems to have no effect on movement.

Curvature tool does some funkiness when clicking on a point of a different object
Curvature behaves weird when you click on another object (related to https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/44830828--corner-anchor-points-become-smooth-when-joining).
But I'm not trying to join the objects, just click on it. It works fine if you click on the path of the second object, but if you click where an anchor point is it joins the two objects together at the point you click and the first anchor point of what you clicked off of. It also deletes all corner points of the object you clicked on.2 votes -

Don’t display Touch workspace styled handles for Free Transform when Ai doesn’t use it
If a computer has an access to a touch screen device, Ai offers users to switch the interface into the dedicated Touch Workspace: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/illustrator-touch-workspace.html
Normally this access won’t affect using Ai in the default mode, except for the way Free Transform tool’s controls.
These start to look ugly: large contoured circles with small white square padding inside, smudged icons (when viewed at 100 UI scale), giant hint arrows...Maybe these work for some better, I can imagine this.
But why do I see these when not in Touch mode?
How can I force Ai to use normal ones without removing…2 votes -
Tip popup when zooming in and out (Alt key while brush is selected)
Whenever I zoom in and out using Alt + scroll wheel or a shortcut on my Wacom pencil, and have a Pencil or Brush selected, the smoothing tool pops up and gives this 'tip' that is obstructing my work. Turning tool tips off does not help.
'To smooth a section, select its anchor points with the direct selection tool and adjust the slider.'
It is really annoying, I'm not trying even trying to smooth the paths, just zooming! The tip stays on screen until I do something else, and pops back up whenever I hit alt. I know how the…

Scale Tool center point sticking to the cursor
When using the Scale tool, when I drag the center point with the mouse (actually it happens when using the pen), it sticks to the tip of the cursor and does not go away for a while. I lower the program window down, switch to other programs, only then it is solved. The program locks at that time.

Pencil Tool not performing accurately
Pencil tool not performing accurately. Continued issue after updating to the 2025 version of Illustrator. Despite tinkering with pencil tool options, the shape will continue to skew compared to what I am drawing. Fidelity is on its most "accurate" setting.

Offer to delete dimensions if related objects are deleted
Dimension in Ai are live and follow the objects they we snapped to (only if NOT get moved on their own or together with the objects, which is stupid and should be fixed: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/47739104)
But another problem is unbound dimensions, that don’t have an anchored parent anymore.
Ai offers nothing if I delete an object that has a dimension attached to it
It won’t offer me restore the link if I paste it back.
If a dimension was bound to two objects, and delete one, there is no way I can move the second one and keep it live,…2 votes -
Smooth function converts smooth endpoints in a partial selection into sharp ones
Here I try to smooth a portion of a simple ellipse with extra points added.
The Smooth tool works as intended — the points stay smooth, the curves does not get any bumps or creases.
The Smooth slider however treats the now selected portion of the path as a separate thing altogether, caring about the local smoothness only, making the flush smooth connections to the whole curves into sharp ones.
I now have two creases I never wanted to create (I am smoothing or what?)
Please rethink how it treats partial selections.2 votes -

Making a regular triangle with Star tool duplicates the path
Scissor tool cuts lines and duplicates them (completely broken)
Make a triangle by selecting the star and changing it to 3 lines (triangle), now cut one of the lines with the scissor. It duplicates the shape! This bug is seen across multiple shapes and lines. The scissor tool is broken along with selecting individual points often creates duplicate lines.
The quality of adobe products has just gone downhill in the last 5 years.

Don’t allow to create anything in the dedicated Dimensions layer except dimensions
标注尺寸后新建图形问题
当标注完尺寸后，新建图形会出现在尺寸图层，要想在原图层绘制，必须选择原图层后再建立，我认为这是一个bug，尺寸图层作为一个特殊的独立图层，不应该有其他图形出现。当尺寸标注完绘制新图形时，软件应该自动识别这不是尺寸标注操作，应该回到原图层，不应停留在尺寸图层。2 votes -

Magic Wand tool selects things it shouldn't
In the video below, I have four shapes: two black squares with a transparent stroke (i.e., no stroke), a black square with a gold stroke, and a red square with a gold stroke. The tolerance level in the Magic Wand palette is set to zero for both strokes and fills.
If "Fill Color" only is checked, and you click on a plain black square with the Magic Wand tool, both plain black squares and the black square with the gold fill are selected as expected.
If "Stroke Color" only is checked, and you click on a plain black square, both…
