Phantom lines at 315° are drawn in Outline mode at large zoom levels
Illustrator CC 22.0.1 This has happened occasionally in the past few versions.
I'll create an object with the pen tool, and close the object. When I zoom to make modifications on the path I sometimes see a path shoot off to the right at ~315° from one of the anchor points and it looks like the path connecting two anchor points isn't there. As I move it around or zoom out it'll disappear, but if I move back it comes back. Editing the object isn't affected, but it is highly visually distracting. Attached video file illustrates.-

Missing Font On Documents That Were Just Open
I have been having issues with fonts dropping out of coworkers documents since I updated to CC2018 but this is the first time I have reopened one of my own files and had font claim to be missing that I was just using.
I had assumed previously that my coworkers had just had a different named version of the fonts but today I saved and closed one of my own files to restart my pc because AI was running slowly (separate issue, i know) but when i reopened my file 10 minutes later I have 6 fonts missing.

cant copy text from illustrator and paste to indesign
When I attempt to copy selected text characters (not the object) and paste in Indesign, I get outlined characters. I have to go through TextEdit, or any other place I can paste text, then copy it again to get text that will paste in Indesign as characters.
3 votesThe latest version of Illustrator and InDesign have better handling of the buffer contents now. A selection of text at character level from Illustrator now gets copied and pasted fine in Indesign.
Please check if it works for you now and comment back.

Adobe Color CC "Adobe Servers not available" [Bug]
Unfortunately I can't open the expore-rider of adobe color cc when signed in.
Everything works perfectly, when I'm visiting the webpage https://color.adobe.com as a guest. But when I sign in, which is required to perform any actions, the above mentioned error occures.
The "Create" and the "My Themes" riders work still perfectly when signed in.
I've tried it under Edge/Chrome and Firefox. Besides Firefox none of the browsers has Addons installed. I'm running a Windows 10 Machine.3 votesHi ,

X- Y-coordinates are not aligning
When attempting to align two existing points by typing in an exact measurement for x- y-coordinates, they do not align on screen. When the measurements typed in are the exact same, they are NOT aligning on the screen. This is making it quite difficult to refine shapes.

Shortcuts not working, update cc 2018
I was using CC fine the other day, and now I've updated to the latest version (2018) none of my shortcuts are working, only the space bar works for moving around - very frustrating since it takes away my whole workflow and adds loads of time to creating something very simple!

Find Font broken between OSX and Windows
Find Font is broken.
For a missing font it requests a different font for OSX and Windows for the same file. It has something to do with the family name or font name or something. The important thing is that it is inconsistent between OS and is impossible to determine the correct font due to this error. This is confirmed to be effecting many people.
Here is a link to a detailed explanation of what is going on with pictures showing the differences between operating systems.

Breaking link of scaled Symbol with "Scale strokes and effects" off will scale Symbol appearance back to original.
Illustrator CC 2018
Windows 10I have put a Symbol on my Artboard, and scaled it to 50% of its original size.
I want to break its link, and maintain its proportional appearance (i.e. stroke width half of original).
If "Scale strokes and effects" is off, stroke sizes are doubled (back to original value). You have to tick it on for it to work as expected.Is this a bug or a feature?
In the attached image, to the left is the Symbol (at 50% scale) broken with tick on, to the right off.
