"Left-click the tool to view a list of all the tools in the tool group." Does not work.
"Left-click the tool to view a list of all the tools in the tool group."
Very simple, right? We've all been able to do it forever.
Well, I don't want to be overly unpleasant about this, but, having finally upgraded from Adobe CS5 to Adobe CC, I find that this most basic of actions is unperformable on my computer. It worked in CS5.
It's the newest version of Mojave, 10.14.3, and the newest version of Illustrator, on account of me having just installed it.

Extra large font in top menus - can't fix
I can't modify the size of the font in Illustrator's top bar menus. When I click on a top menu item (File/Edit/Object/Type, etc) the font displayed in them is extra large, and I can't change it in Settings. Even when I select "Reset Essentials Classic", nothing happens. How can I fix this? Thanks!

Japanese version: Sidebar properties get clipped
The values get clipped out and it's difficult to insert values....
I think this is possibly because of poor localisation for Japanese UI as the Japanese text is larger and thus causes the clipping....
This has happened on many occasions but as a sample I included an image of the settings of corner roundness of an object.
I'm not sure if this happens on any other language UI's as I've only been using the Japanese version.

LogTransport2 locks app after failed requests to hbrcv.adobe.com
I have a corporate web filter that always tries to authenticate port 80 or 443 traffic. Illustrator is reaching out to hbrcv.adobe.com and because there is no traditional web interface to handle this request, if the library can't communicate without issue the entire user interface locks and becomes unusable. Any ideas how to fix this issue? Thanks!

Panels are Grouped, e.g., Properties can't be detached from Layers
I want to set up a new workspace to have separate windows. Illustrator is forcing them to be attached, and it takes up a lot of screen space, blocking my view of my artwork.
I am using Windows 10 v1803

Tool Windows Collapsed on Start
Tool windows collapsed on start — make tool windows not collapsed on start. This has happened to me before, I don't remember what fixed it. This doesn't happen if the start screen for MacBook children is used.

Continuous drag over locks or visibility in layer palette regularly fails when using Wacom
I have experienced this problem on both macOS and Windows when using a Wacom tablet.
1. Toggle visibility of multiple layers by click-dragging over the eye icons.
2. Toggle the visibility of another layer by clicking on the eye icon.
3. Occasionally the last click will be interpreted as being part of the drag gesture and the visibilty of multiple layers will be affected.
4. Undo doesn't see step 1 and 2 as separate. So undoing gets you back to before step 1.You may have to test this for a while as it doesn't happen very often. A few…

resize does not respect the homothety
1) It is impossible to draw a specific object
If we write 100 x 100 pt in L and H. This draws: 101,172 x 100,657 pt
It's not accurate and not square !!2) Having the box "keep proportions V and H" checked.
You can not write 200 pt in H and keep the proportion respected.
Example I type V = 200 pt. He writes me V = 202,172 pt and H = 203,292 ptStill not accurate and not square
It's a disaster, because gradually, while working and constantly changing the sizes of these objects, everything becomes oval and…
1 voteThe issue no longer happens in the latest versions of Illustrator.
If it still does for you — please check if the Use Preview Bound option in Preferences > General is disabled, and comment back if toggling it does not help.

Illustrator ignores ‘Use Preview Bounds’ setting unless multiple objects are selected
Not much more to say. Single object selected? Bounding box ignores the object's stroke. Multiple objects selected? Bounding box encompasses the stroke.

Workspace window falls off the page
The newest update does not fix the issue I am having with the workspace window falling off the page when I try to drag the bottom right corner to better fit my art/desktop as needed. Does not respond to the position of my mouse, I have to over exaggerate where I want it while I click and drag my mouse.
1 voteKimberly, the image you attached to the report is not related to it, and shows a screenshot of the UV page instead.
So if you are still having this problem, please provide a proper screenshot or maybe a video even, if necessary. Either way, please comment back on this.

Missing workspace when using external monitors
When I use my external Monitors (Dell, only 3 month old) in combination with my newest generation MacBook Pro Illustrator crashes all the time when the monitors are set into standby-mode. Strange to say this issue only appears when the monitors are in standby-mode for more than 10 Seconds!
After 10 seconds waking them up illustrator only shows one of my tool-options. No toolbar, oder canvas. At the moment it's really hard for me to work with this issue because i need to restart illustrator all the time to get rid of it.
in my overview illustrator shows up, but…

start up screen flashing black and white
when i open adobe illustrator the screen flashes black and white continuously and the menus close instantly when i click on them. i can open a new document by pressing ctrl n but cannot click on any of the menus.
this only happens when i am signed in, which i need. i can sign out by quickly clicking the sign out button in the help menu before it closes again, but this is not ideal.
this only happens in illustrator CC 2015, not photoshop.1 votePlease accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience.
