Serious Bug: Corrupted Files
When I load my files that I previously created AI 2017, into AI 2018, some of them load properly, at least as far as I can see, but some of them are giving me an error. The corrupted files show me a dialog box for Text Import Options. If I click Cancel, then the file doesn't load, but if I click OK, then it shows no images, but instead shows the following:

Troubleshooting with anchor points
While trying to add a new anchor point to an intersection it adds it in another place, some pixels to the left. Basically, it happens whenever I try to use the pen tool. At the same time looks like whenever I move an object it doesn't go exactly where I want it to. Basically, no overlapping or adding anchor point to an existing vector.

Illustrator 2018 Loses ability to keep text uniform when transforming the type on path
Illustrator 2017 had the ability to, while transforming the type on the path shape, to keep the text on it the same size and proportions when doing so. I would select the path with direct selection tool, then hit command, and text would stay uniform when transforming path.
Now, in illustrator 2018, using same steps and command, type doesn't stay uniform, it gets squished.
Below are video links I recorded to show how the action works in 2017 and 2018 illustrator.

2018 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XscdrAqBZR8Notice how type gets distorted when moving bounding box in 2018, but I was able…

Deleting Successive Artboards
If you have a list of artboards and try and delete several of them in a row, deleting one will deselect the list. This is not a major issue in most cases, but it is a nuisance when having to quickly delete 40 or more artboards; it doubles the number of commands that need to be inputted before reaching the same result.

Trackpad zooming causing an earthquake on Illustrator CC 2018
Zooming in via the trackpad causes an unexpected earthquake-like glitch. Zooming in via keyboard shortcuts work as expected.
Also, at the end of the video, I show off the full screen bug, which has been present since CC 2017 version after updating to High Sierra. This also happens in probably all other applications (its like this too I believe in Ps and Id) Thought that would've been fixed by now! Thanks.

Zoom to Selection Doesn't Work within Text
When I zoom in on Illustrator CC (21.1.0) it works great, zooming in on the object I have selected. The problem occurs when I have a bit of text within a larger textbox selected. When I zoom in, instead of centering around the object, it zooms in on the center of my screen, often putting the selected type out of sight.
(If I have the textbox itself selected, it's fine. It's just if I'm using the type tool to select and edit type.)

Ctrl+F
Antigamente, o ctrl+F (colar no local) colava a forma no mesmo local independentemente da camada ou artboard. Hoje ele cola apenas na mesma camada na qual foi recortado ou copiado. Isso é muito ruim pois temos que direcionar para a camada desejada manualmente. Acho que isso é um bug visto que a função perde o sentido.

Allow Shift + arrows in an input field to always add 10 (like in Photoshop) instead of rounding up to a 10 first
In illustrator if you change sizes using shift + arrows in the top bar, it rounds up to the nearest 10 and then goes up in 10s. In photoshop it doesn't round up just increases by 10.
I think it would be better to be able to choose which mode to use as sometimes I prefer either depending on what I am doing.

IllustratorSaveOptions in C# .NET is not working anymore as expected
For more than a decade the following Illustrator script has been applied via C# .NET in combination with all existing Illustrator versions (sourcecode):
typelib.IllustratorSaveOptions saveOptions = new typelib.IllustratorSaveOptions();
saveOptions.Compatibility = typelib.AiCompatibility.aiIllustrator8;
saveOptions.FlattenOutput = typelib.AiOutputFlattening.aiPreserveAppearance;
DestDoc.SaveAs(sPath, saveOptions);All over the internet we see a lot of people using the same code above (applying the exact same idea) also in other programming languages.
Following test has been done with Illustrator versions CS, CS2, CS3, CS5, CS6, etc. on the latest Windows 10 operating system and VS2012: draw 2 intersecting rectangles: above yellow, the other red. A transparency Difference has been set on…

Can only open 1 Ai file at a time
Can only open one Ai file at a time. If current Ai file open is open in Illustrator and you try to open another file concurrently through all means, it will not open. The only way around this is to open each file in a different version of Illustrator, or completely close Ai to open the new file.
