Sizing bug of objects with corner radius Create a rectangle 25mm x 25mm.
Change corner radius to 1mm.
Rotate the rectangle 45 degrees.
Try to change the with or height to 25mm in the transform palette.
You will get weird 24,7714mm, 25,0076mm, 24,9997 sizes.

It's a shame that such an expensive graphic program can't handle the basic task of sizing objects.5 votes -
Current bugs that are making it nearly impossible to get work done As I type this, I'm reinstalling AI for the second time this month. This time without saved prefs. Please, Adobe, make this storied and remarkable piece of software STABLE before you talk about giving us new features. I don't want a new icon, I want not to have to explain to my boss that I didn't get anything done this morning because my industry-standard software didn't work.

Allow to isolate a compound path when only a part of it is selected Since we can't isolate components of compound path and shapes it is strange that Ai won't isolate a whole compound path/shape when you select only a part of it.
Try this:
1. Create compounds path/shape — like a torus
2. Use Direct/Group Selection tool to select only the inner circle if your torus
3. The 'Isolate Selected Object' button won't appear on the Control panel and the assigned hotkey won't do anything.This should be fixed. Ai should allow to isolate a compound path/shape when you select a part of it.
Also, I think that Ai should be able to…5 votes -
Zero-height marquee Please study the GIF attached.
- I want to select an edge of the yellow-beige path
- I grab Direct selection tool and drag a frame over the edge — OK
- I make it faster — still OK
- I make it with my usual speed and get the marquee that has 0 height. It happens with me all the time! I don't fake it, I just automatically try to drag the less tall frame as possible, because sometimes I need to select quite a tiny segment. And when it happens — Illustrator selects nothing.
Well, this is wrong.

Ghost element sneaks in my groups Hi!!
I encounter a bug in Illustrator. You will find the description below but also a video that explains a lot better what I am trying to say.
1) OS: Windows
Version: 10.0
System Architecture: x64
Illustrator version: 24.1.22) When I just try to select a group from the active window.
3) I expect to only select element from this group
4) Somehow there is a ghost element that I can see alone when I unselect my group. This ghost stays there and mess up my resizing then..5 votes -
In-app tutorials not opening I am using Adobe Illustrator 2020 24.1.2 that I downloaded from Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop.
I am operating on a Microsoft Windows 10 Home version 10.0.18363.
I opened the app and clicked on the in-app tutorials available in the Learn section. The tutorials that opens in browsers open just fine, it is only the in-app tutorials that do not respond in any way when clicked on.
I expected the in-app tutorial to open and show a step-by-step tutorial by opening a new project, similar to the in-app tutorials in other Adobe apps (Premiere Pro, Photoshop, etc.).
The actual result was…

White pixel line around shapes Ever since Appearance was introduced, my artwork on screen suffers from a white pixel line around shapes. Seems a rendering problem: the line is not actually existing - zooming in does not make it thicker, it's always one pixel. Tried switching GPU off and on. No difference.
The appearance of the black shape: Fill is black, Stroke is None.5 votes -

Qué pasa!!, no entiendo? ayuda por favor, necesitó trabajar con las imágenes que no me permite abrir AI.
Lo peor es que no solo me pasa con AI, también con PSD

Illustrator freezes - must close using Task Manager Illustrator freezes, menus not accessible and/or if they open, it is blank. I can still select items on the artboard, but cannot use anything in menus and tools. Once Illustrator freezes, I cannot close unless I use the Task Manager.

CC2018 Illustrator Multiply with CMYK colors and Windows 10 Fall Creators update (solid color) The latest Windows 10 update (Fall Creators) bugs out the Illustrators Multiply option when in CMYK setting. The Multiply option becomes a solid color instead of transparant and reacting with bottom color. When converting to RGB it works as intended and photoshop for example shows correct multiply in CMYK.
current solution: revert back to older version of windows 10.

While shift-dragging objects green plus appears and picture clipping file is created. This issue is intermittent, but when shift-dragging an object in order to maintain vertical or horizontal position during movement, a green plus will appear next to the cursor and upon release, the object will snap back to its original position and refuse to be moved until you use the Cmd+Shft+B shortcut, which seems to clear it temporarily. However, if after that green plus appears you drag your cursor off-window to the desktop, a macOS picture clipping file is created. I have been unable to locate any settings for adjusting the behavior of mac's legacy clipping feature, so I'm hoping this…

Bounding box does not get updated when 'Use Preview Bounds' is toggled - Create a circle.
- Apply a large Outside stroke to it
- Make sure you have bounding box turned on in View menu
- Open Preferences using menu (not a Ctrl+K hotkey, this is important)
- Toggle Use Preview Bounds option, commit changes
The bounding box does not get updated. To force to to become larger/smaller (it depends on you initial state of it), you have to click/move the shape, to force it to redraw.
However, if you call Preferences via a hotkey, Ctrl+K, the brief moment you hold Ctrl is enough to toggle the selection tool to Direct Selection, which makes Ai hide…

long anchor point curve when zoomed in Windows 10
25.3.1I used the Object > Expand on a stroke path I created
When I zoom in to like 12750% or more, I see this long pen line that doesn't connect to the next anchor point, but when I zoom out it disappears like it was never there.
It's nothing much, but it is annoying to keep seeing when I work.4 votes -

会社の同じ環境の人も、同じ現象が起こっています。4 votesIllustrator 製品版フィードバックへのご協力ありがとうございます。
再現ファイルのご提供、および追加情報のご提供により、画面表示のグレーアウト現象を再現確認いたしました。
・使用マシンが Intel Mac
・環境設定の GPU パフォーマンスが無効
・複数ドキュメントを開いている
・開いている2番目以降のドキュメントで 1200% 以上にズームする上記のすべての条件が揃うと再現されますが、ズームアウトすると表示が戻ります。
また、GPU パフォーマンスを有効にするほか、単一ドキュメントを開いてでの作業で現象を回避できます。
この現象は、M1 Mac(M1 ネイティブ、および Rosetta 起動)では再現しません。今後、詳細な検証作業を行います。
情報のアップデートがありましたら、こちらでご報告いたします。
