Paste in Place does not work properly
So I'm having problems with the Paste in Place command, sometimes it works great when I Copy or Cut something and paste it on other artboards but most of the times it is not working properly, either what I copied o cut get outside the drawing area or it goes to a random place, and at first I thought I wasn't selecting the artboard but even with the artboard selected it falls anywhere. I'm running Illustrator CC 2019, on windows 10.

Zoom to mouse location
Prevously when you zoom with the Mouse (magic Mouse 2) it would zoom to the location of the pointer. Now it seems to just zoom to a random point. I move the mouse pointer and it still zooms to the random point. I want to hover my mouse somewhere and then zoom to that position like previous.

Gradient issue on import
When exporting PDFs from indesign that contain a gradient, then opening the PDF into illustrator, the gradient completely vanishes. Tried placing the PDF into illustrator and it previews but if embedded or flattened, it disappears. Tried straight copy and paste form indesign into illustrator and nothing. This has never been an issue before and is required when printing as clients often supply indesign files and the print RIP requires illustrator etc. etc.

Split to grid on multiple artboards
Tdlr: horisontal guides made with "split to grid" go onto the first artboard, when they shouldn't.
I use split to grid to make myself a grid to work on and it works fine on a single artboard. But if i try to make split to grid on any other artboard than the first one, it sends the horisontal guides to the first artboard and keeps the vertical ones on the correct one. The lines stay grouped and can be moved, but it takes extra time and effort.
This happended on different machines.Writing this on a phone, but I can…
2 votesCan’t reproduce in the latest version.
The description is no exactly clear, so it’d be nice to get a video of the behavior, along with the exact steps: what configuration of artboards do you have, what and how do you split exactly, what do you do next to make guides.

Opening WMF through Windows Command Line creates distortion
When opening a WMF in the latest 2020 AI via the Windows command line, e.g.
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 2020\Support Files\Contents\Windows\Illustrator.exe" 745-2969563.wmf
It opens the WMF, but it is distorted as in the attached wmf_distorted.png.
However, if you open a blank document and import it with File->Place, it renders it correctly
I appreciate any and all help.

Please see if Snap to Grid is on in your document? If yes then try turning that off and try again.
Launch Illustrator and check if it works and share the outcome with us .
Otherwise follow below steps :
> Click on finder , when you will click on finder on mac at the top you will see an option as “Go”
> choose Go > Go To Folder
> In go to folder , type ~/library
> choose application support/Adobe/rename the folder named as Adobe Illustrator22Settings to Adobe Illustrator21Settings.old
> go back to library folder where you got application support folder and scroll down
> Open the Preferences Folder rename the folder named as Adobe Illustrator22Settings to Adobe Illustrator22Settings.oldThanks
