1. when I open Illustrator there are no tools showing

   I can't see my tools in Illustrator and I can't change or reset my Workspace :(

   I'm able to add some things like the Toolbar and Swatches/Layers/Etc windows, but I'm never able to see it complete, with that top bar that includes the Align + Transform + Etc

   Usually setting the Workspace to Essentials Classic does the job... please help!

3. No Rotate arrow for shapes

   When creating shapes with the shape tool, the rotate arrow no longer shows up. If I click in the area where the rotate arrow would normally be, the shape will rotate and the rotate arrow then appears. Any other object other that shapes work as usual when rotating. I end up scaling objects trying to guess where the rotate arrow would be.

5. Survey Request

   The annoying prompt to take the survey cannot be turned off. Even on completing it I am still prompted to take it - when you do its recognized you've already taken this. This survey prompt should be disabled at least when it's been taken once.

7. Slow opening of the first document!!!

   I don't know if it happens to others, an Illustrator on a Windows machine "I would say performing, quite a lot" but this problem happens to me I think at least from the CC2018 / 2019/2020 version.

   I start the software, open a new empty document, or open an existing document (even of small, insignificant dimensions) the document takes a long time to open (it is not immediate).
   If I open a second document it opens in the right time, then it works as it should.
   The same thing happens if I close Illustrator and restart it.

   But before it DID NOT HAPPEN with older versions of Ai.

   Resolved (Comments Open)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

   The tool is still there, but he team decided to hide the Knife tool from the Basic toolbar, based on the usage statistics, aiming to reduce clutter for new users.

   You can still access it. There are two options:

   1. Go to Window > Toolbars and pick Advanced, to view the classic tool layout, including all plugin tools added.

   2. Press Edit Toolbar button at the bottom of your current toolbar (with three dots), find the Knife there (it’s the last one in the Modify section), and drag it into the panel in the slot you find fitting (be careful not to insert it into a tool-group by mistake, it’s a tight wiggle).

9. Fill/Stroke icons to match in the tools bar

   The smaller sub-icons for Fill and Stroke Boxes should match. (Fill is Full and Stroke is Hollow). Under stroke, the icons only change for the color, but the icons do not change for gradient and no/color/opacity.

10. Panels are mixed up and showing wrong content when docked

    All panels and document windows show some frozen content. This happens daily until I restart. If panels are dragged to be floating they refresh correct until they are docked together again.

11. SVG arc path without whitespace standard syntax broken

    When an arc is described using a missing whitespace, which is perfectly valid SVG syntax, it will not be rendered correctly in Illustrator. This was discovered with SVG files compressed by SVGO 1.3+ and later which has the arc path optimisation by default.

    This syntax should work as it is a standard part of the SVG specification and is rendered correctly by all major web browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari.

    In the attached example an arc is written as:

    a.65.65 0 011.109-.459

    The string 011.109 contains 3 values:

    0
    1 (a boolean is required here, it cannot be 11.109)
    1.109

    This syntax (with missing whitespaces) follows the SVG 1.1 standard: https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/paths.html#PathDataBNF

    SVGO discussion: https://github.com/svg/svgo/issues/1137

12. Zoom in keyboard shortcut bug

    Since the update to Illustrator v. 24.1 the zoom in keyboard shortcut (cmd +) no longer works. The zoom out function (cmd -) does continue to work. I have the same issue in Adobe Acrobat. Any fixes would be appreciated.

13. Anchor Points Automatically Go Back When Moved

    If I create a shape such as using the Rectangle tool then I click on a single anchor point and move it with the Direct selection tool, it goes automatically back to the position that it was at instead of where I moved it. However, if I move the shape then select the single anchor point and move it then it will go to the position to where I moved it.

    Here's the kicker. This happens some of the time and not all of the time so there is no consistancy to it. I mean I can completely bypass this by simply moving a shape and moving it back with the arrow keys and then move the single anchor point everytime it decides to move the anchor point back, but this is so annoying!

    Help.

16. Magic mouse 2 poor performance

    OS Catalina - 10.15.3
    Illustrator - 24.0.3
    Imac 2019 - I9 - 40gb ram - 512 ssd - pro vega 48 8gb

    The performance while using the magic mouse 2 is very... very slow and laggy. Just scrolling left to right/up to down using a single finger swipe is choppy, delayed to the point where it is unusable. I am forced to use a different mouse while working within illustrator (my logitech, which works fine). I know there are some features within mac OS like the inertia scrolling that cause problems but when you disable all of the those features performance is still unusable and it sort of takes all of the 'magic' out of the mouse. Photoshop works perfect for me with the magic mouse so I don't understand why illustrator wouldn't.

17. Align to Key Object not selectable unless Tool panel is open

    BUG REPORT: "Align to Key Objects" is (sporadically) not selectable as an align method, unless objects are selected while the Tool Panel is open.

    If this panel is closed during object selection, then the "Align to Key Objects" option is greyed out in both the Toolbar and in the Tool Panel (even after it is expanded/opened). This does not happen on every occasion.

19. AppleScript "export as svg" with options triggers error

    tell application "Adobe Illustrator"
    try
    tell current document
    export to outFile as SVG with options {class:SVG export options, coordinate precision:5, font type:outline font, minify svg:true, raster image location:link, responsive svg:true}
    end tell
    on error errMsg number errNum
    log errNum & space & errMsg
    tell current document
    export to outFile as SVG with options {coordinate precision:5, font type:outline font, minify svg:true, raster image location:link, responsive svg:true}
    end tell

    end try
    

    end tell

    Including class:SVG export options triggers an error at runtime even though the code compiles. Excluding it in the list of options exports a file but applies none of the options. Someone else discovered this and commented in the support forums in 2016.
