Selection tool not working with Text Intermittently, the selection tool isn't working with my text. For area type, the bounding box will disappear (and "show bounding box" is enabled). When it re-appears, often there is a lag between when I move the text and when the bounding box follows it. If there is no lag, it is not uncommon for the bounding box not to move at all.
OR my selection tool will (on area type) act only like a direct selection tool. And the transformation controls on each side of a rectangle of the type box will disappear. All I can do is use the…

Type Tool is very slow - Adobe Illustrator CC 2019 I recently update Adobe Illustrator CC to the latest version (CC 2019) and the type tool is painfully slow. Every time I try to use it, I get 15-20 seconds of the pinwheel before the cursor shows up. Once the tool is finally activated, everything takes a prolonged amount of time (5-10 seconds to type a letter, etc.) Thanks for any help.

Syncing font from Typekit never works When opening a file that I have used Typekit fonts in, the missing fonts dialog box tells me they are missing, but are available to sync from Typekit.
I have tried the following to restore my fonts- Press "Sync" from the missing font dialog box inside illustrator. (this does nothing. it loads forever and never updates my fonts)
- Open typekit in browser, unsync and re-sync all fonts.
- Close file. Open typekit in browser, unsync and re-sync all fonts. Re-open file.
- Quit Illustrator. Open typekit in browser, unsync and re-sync all fonts. Launch Illustrator. Open file.
NOTHING works.

Cursor jumps while editing Font Family name When I try to change font name from HeliosCondBlackC to HeliosBlackC (both are installed), erasing part of the name, CC2018 moves cursor to the end (while CC2017 does not)
I also have 'Entire Font name' option chosen (and never change it), but cursor still jumps to the end.12 votesI am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our release – 23.1 which is available worldwide now.
Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.
You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html
Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

Text always shows as black Sometimes, when I apply color to a text box (using the swatches or the eyedropper) the color shown on screen is black even though in the Appearance panel the Fill is the one I applied.

Hi,
The attached screenshot displays the FILL color underneath the CHARACTERS in the APPEARANCE panel therefore any change applied to the FILL will not be displayed, to display it correctly please move the FILL color row on top of the CHARACTER row (Click & Drag) in the Appearance panel.
Hope this helps to resolve this issue.
With Best Regards,

Wrong font preview for RTL languages There are a few problems with the new fonts preview in the last version of Illustrator.
1. Even though 'Selected Text' preview option is selected the preview shows first five Hebrew alphabet letters instead.
2. This happens weather the text box is selected or the text itself.
3. Sometimes the 'Selected Text' preview is shown. In those cases it's shown backwards (LTR instead of RTL).This happens in spite of the fact that the text box is marked as a 'Hebrew' one and 'RTL Arabic' digits is selected.
I'm using a Mac running OS X 10.13.6 High Sierra.1 voteHi Eli,
Not all the fonts have all the glyphs available with them to show the preview. For the fonts where glyphs are not available, we show the default sample preview (that’s why you get first five glyphs for those fonts)
Hope This helps.
Thanks

Font Suggestion and Cursor misbehaving I'm already feeling a lot of regret for updating to CC 2018!
Now anytime I want to change a font, and I start typing in the name, no suggestions come up. Sometimes, the cursor jumps backwards and start inserting characters midway. I feel frustrated and fed up.1 voteHi Love,
Looks like your setting is set to “Search First work only”. Click on the search icon and from the drop down select “Search Entire Font Name”
