Scroll wheel crash
Logitech MX Master 2S mouse scroll wheel has stopped functioning in latest versions of AI. Currently hanging and crashing.
Latest Windows, Latest AI. Latest nvidia driver.
Asuswrx90, AMD7965, 256 QVL RAM, 5090Founders, Samsung 9100 m2 OS/CACHE/Storage drives
Expected: smooth scroll
Actual: App hangs for 2 seconds.
GPU accelleration settings on or off make no difference.
I suspect it is a logitech driver issue but a basic bit of mouse functionality in very very common hardware should not be happening.1 vote -

When you hover over the toolbar, the info boxes appear and do not go away when you take your cursor off of the tool. It covers my view too much!

Traditional Chinese UI Translation Issue Report--"屬性" (Properties / Attributes)
Traditional Chinese UI Translation Issue Report
To Whom It May Concern,I've encountered a translation issue in the Traditional Chinese interface of Adobe Illustrator, where two different functional panels share the same translated name, "屬性" (Properties / Attributes), which causes confusion for users.

The Linked File dropdown does not resize correctly, often goes offscreen
The 'Linked File' dropdown (visible when a linked file is selected) does not resize correctly.
If the lower-right corner is dragged to resize the left edge very quickly moves offscreen, then when the handle is released the dropdown is often too large to view on the monitor, as it has scaled so wide that it is off the right hand side of the screen. It is difficult to get it to all fit on the screen at once, and if the lower-right handle goes offscreen then it requires a restart of Illustrator to try again.
