Character scroll bar
The character scroll bar stopped working. If I click to change the font there is no scroll bar, nor is there a size option. I am on Windows 10 (64 bit Home) using the latest Illustrator (23.0.0 64 bit). I uninstalled and reinstalled and still have this problem I am using two screens, and have found that if i move the character window to the other screen and reset it, I can get the scroll bar back temporarily so this seems to have to do with dual screen setup

Uniform (centered) Scale // Bounding Box // Wacom Driver Issues
Uniform (centered) scale issues while using the bounding box together with "shift+option" keys (Mac OS) for scaling, seem to occure while having older Wacom Drivers installed. It does not happen when working with a Mouse or using the Touch Pad for Example on a Wacom Intuos Touch. Pen input only reproduces this issue with older drivers.

I have Illustrator 23.0.3 (CC2019).

I have to make them appear each time I reopen Illustrator.
Have a solution ?
Thanks,JP

Mouse response too slow to use Illustrator. Clicking on the file menu causes a 5 second delay to open it.
Mouse response too slow to use Illustrator. Clicking on the file menu causes a 5-second delay to open it. By the time 3 seconds have passed, the user clicks again. By the time Illustrator catches up, the menu is opened, then closed from the two clicks. UNUSABLE! The product should be shut down and users should be getting a refund or face a class action lawsuit. Worst business decision EVER to move this app to the cloud and take away the desktop version in the process!

Tool Options Palettes Absent On Launch
The tool options palettes (those you select from the Window menu) are occasionally absent on launch. Not every time. Not even most times. It seems to occur in waves; sometimes more frequent, sometimes less frequent. Lately, it's been a near daily occurrence.
Choosing the palettes in the Window menu when this happens does nothing.
I have the palettes grouped in a single column, but it seems to make no difference whether they're grouped or spread out. Likewise it makes no difference if they're on my primary or secondary monitor.
Currently installed version: 23.0.3
I have CC set to auto update.…2 votesPlease accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience. Please get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html . Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.

Cannot close main application window with keyboard shortcut
When there are no documents open, it's apparently not possible to close the application window from the keyboard (e.g. with the traditional shortcut Cmd+W). The Close option is disabled in the File menu.
2 votesHi Kit,
Cmd+W is used to close the documents, if you want to close the application, please use Cmd+Q
Thanks

Scrolling mouse wheel over Stroke Weight Bug
To re create the bug:
1) Draw a path with the default path tool.
2) Highlight the path by clicking and dragging across it.
3) Open the Stroke Panel
4) Using a mouse that has a scroll wheel (in my case a $20 Logitech mouse), scroll up or down while the mouse pointer is hovering over the number for the stroke weight.
5) The weight does not change until you go 2 full weights passed the original weight.Sometimes the weight will change but what often happens is that the weight must go at least 2 weights before 1 weight…

Missing panels - restarting Illustrator brings them back
On more than one Mac we have an issue in Illustrator 23.0.1 where some of the panels disappear and we can't get them back without quitting Illustrator and reloading it. Resetting the workspace doesn't work and neither does choosing one of the missing panels from the Windows menu.
I did also have this on InDesign CC2018 but that has since been fixed in 2019.

Workspace on start up gathers to home screen instead of second screen!
Saved custom Workspace on start up gathers to home screen instead of second screen! This has only happened since the release of Illustrator 2019 - which has been the buggiest illustrator I've dealt with - horrible results to simple functionality that has never had problems in the past. very disappointed.

Oversize UI Elements in Ai 2019
I noticed that with the 2019 version of Illustrator (23.0), the entire UI of the software seems to be "supersized." It is as if every pixel is now rendered oversized. Not just in the drawing area, but all the tools, controls, panels, everything.
I've attached a "full screen" screen shot of the 2019 (v. 23.0) welcome screen, and the (reinstalled) 2018 (v. 22.1) welcome screen. Both are maximized on the same physical screen, the display on my MacBook Pro. See how the buttons and other elements are larger in the 2019 version? Like it is somehow zoomed in.
I do…
