Illustrator files hides from Finders "Smart folder" search
I have made a "smart folder" in macOS Finder that shows recently opened files, but for some reason it won't show .ai files. I think this is an Adobe/CC-related problem and not caused by MacOS, beacuse after a little googling, other Adobe file types seems to be affected by the same issue. The .ai files do show up in the smart folder if Illustrator is running, but will eventually disappear after I quit the application. The problem seems to be specifically related to the "recently opened" search criteria for the the smart folder, becuase they do appear if I set…

Selection tool and undo
Selection tool does not work properly. It selects the total anchor points of an object, however it does not behave as the Direct Selection Tool, it only allows to move the object. It does not allow to resize. a single or multiple objects selected.
Doing undo (cmd + z) Illustrator often deletes more than one step and resets the document close to its original/previously saved version.

Illustrator opens with all settings lost and menu area unable to grab
OS: Windows 10 Home. Version 1809. Adobe Illustrator 2019 23.0.3 (and earlier versions)
I use Illustrator daily. Approximately every 2 months it launches with a corruption. All of my settings are lost and the menu bar has a strange gradient and is unusable. The only solution I have found is to reinstall and set up from scratch, which is time consuming.

Image Trace Creates a white border after trace
High fidelity image trace in Illustrator 2019 for Mac will add a white border and round the corners. This doesn't seem to be an issue with the PC version of Illustrator (at least for the white border, it will still round the corners).

Rendering intent selection not applied
The selection of rendering intent in the print dialog box is not applied. When printing only the selected rendering intent of color settings applies. I.E the drop-down for selecting rendering intent when printing seem to not be hooked up to any active code at all. This has been an error since at least 2011.

Running Action to Save As EPS with only Artboard 1 results in AI file
I'm trying to run an action that Saves an AI file as an EPS using the only artboard, using the Illustrator 10 EPS option, with transparency. When I create the action, it works and I get a single good result. When I run the action, it does not work. It saves an AI file, not an EPS file.
This has been reported to Adobe Engineering

wrong monitor profile applied when moving AI to a different screen in a multi-monitor setup
Setup: MacOS, latest version / AI, latest version / three different displays (two wide gamut) attached to 2017 MacBook Pro 15" 2017
The monitor profile of the display on which a file is opened first seems to be still in effect to render colors, after moving the window to another monitor (with a different gamut) while in GPU preview.
Colors are quite off when moving a window from a wide-gamut display to an sRgb one and vice versa.
Overprint view or CPU view seem to be correct, but are very slow to work with.1 vote -
Dynamic offset tool with snapping
This is an idea: I would like to be able to dynamically adjust offset value by sliding the mouse cursor on either side of the path / shape, and eventually snap it to a existing anchor point, for example.

Panels repositioning themselves
Mac OS 10.12.6, Illustrator CC 2019 23.0.2
The colour panel repositions itself from my secondary monitor to my main screen whenever I click on whichever icon (fill or stroke) is in the background to activate it - meaning if I want the fill icon at the front, I click it, then the panel jumps.
This happens every time when swapping from fill to stroke or vice versa.
Please fix this so the panel stays where I've put it!

EPS Saving
Whenever I try saving a file as an EPS one, it continuously keeps separating my art boards into their own files, when I need them to stay in one sole file (as it should). This has happened on my personal macbook and the one I use at work various times and is setting back print jobs. Can we go back to retaining files on one until specified to not?

Ver 23.03 Adding text deletes new layer
When I create a new layer, and select the Type tool and create a new character or type element, AI automatically deletes my new layer and adds the text to a locked layer that I previously created.

Mouse scrolling
Mouse wheel scrolling is almost non-responsive.
Whether I want to scroll up or down, or zoom using the alt key, the mousewheel is almost non-responsive. Only scrolling 1 or 2 frames for every 6-10 mouse wheel scrolls.
Mouse wheel scroll works fine on Photoshop and Indesign. Only Illustrator presenting this issue

export directory
"Export as" exports to the parent directory, rather than the selected directory. This appears to happen more often if the target directory is created from within the dialogue.

Bezier Curves break on circles when compounding shapes.
1) Windows 10, Illustrator 23.0.3(64bit)
2) Experienced a bug while compounding a shape into a circle, this managed to break the Bezier curve. This became an issue with a plot cutter slicing from one point to another in graphics production. The issue can be seen when compounding a shape. After using the pathfinder to minus a shape, two live corner appear in the center of the selection. When pulled the live corners on the circle create angled points.1 vote
