Send to Current Layer not working - moves entire layer instead of only selected objects
I'm trying to move some objects from one layer to another.
I'm selecting a series of objects, then clicking on the empty layer that I want to move the objects to. I'm choosing Object > Arrange > Send to Current Layer. When I do this, instead of only the selected objects moving (expected behavior), all the objects on the layer are sent to the other layer.
(Normally I would simply cut the objects, then use Paste In Front on another layer to paste them in the same position. But these functions are also not working for me - the objects…

Rotate View Tool - Alt + Transform
Using the alt+tranform and the rotate view together is impossible because the object flickers between dramatically different sizes.
Replicate this bug by using the rotate view tool and rotating the view 180 degrees. When in this view, hold down alt and try to transform an objects scale. The object will flicker between sizes making it impossible to transform using alt.

Keyboard input in Properties Panel, Character section failure
Keyboard input in the Properties Panel will frequently stop working for me, and the only way to fix it is to restart the application. It's not a huge issue but it is quite irritating as I need to restart illustrator up to six times per hour to fix this.
In detail: keyboard input for character related dimensions will stop working. I am still able to delete input, but cannot add input using the keyboard (the delete key is the only key being registered by Illustrator in the Properties Panel). For example, if my text is set to 35pt font, I…2 votes -
Eyedropper random wrong results
OSX 13.0.1
Illustrator 27.1.1Attempting to pick up paragraph and character values of text with eyedropper. Test is built in a new document from a blank template, components pasted from a working file.
Expected result: that selected text will end up with same values (font, color, size, lead, letterspacing) as sample
Actual result: as far as I can see, completely random results. Sometimes the letterspacing is changed to a value neither the source nor the destination is set to. Sometimes nothing happens. In this video, the font color changes to a color that is not used in the document.I…

Stroke weight defaults to 1pt when a new type of brush is applied.
MacOS 12.6.2
Illustrator 27.1.1To replicate the issue:
Assign a 2pt stroke to an object, then apply any brush to it — the stroke weight becomes 1pt.
Switching between brushes of the same type (Calligraphic, Scatter, Art…) seems to keep the weight intact, but switching the type of brush triggers the stroke weight to default back to 1pt.
Expected result: the assigned weight stays the same regardless of the brushes applied.2 votes -
Bug: dragging global swatch to the “plus” button doesn’t work as expected
MacOS 12.6.2
Illustrator 27.1.1To replicate the issue:
Create a group of swatches and put a global swatch inside the group.
Drag this swatch to the [+] button to create a duplicate.
The actual result: A new global swatch is created outside the group with “Original Name copy” name while the original swatch is also renamed to the same name. Changing one of those swatches also changes the other, they act as one swatch.
Expected result: the same as when you alt-click the [+] button to duplicate a swatch. A new global swatch is created in the same group, it’s…2 votes -
Clipping Mask Shows Some Bugs
Hi
I’m using Illustrator CC (27.1.1) and macOS Monterey 12.3
When I use a clipping mask, sometimes Illustrator shows hidden parts of images that are inside the clipping mask (that should be hidden). When I scroll through the artboards, bugs change shape. (Generally, images inside the clipping mask are effected by the transparency tool, screen, multiply...)
Looking at the attached files you can see a clipping mask with some shapes inside.2 votes -

Drop shadows rendering differently after updating from 25.0 to 25.4.4
This is causing a lot of headaches in our department. The drop shadow appears to have gotten smaller after updating to 25.4.4, even though the values are the same. This edit is destructive and cannot be resolved by reverting to 25.0 and resaving. Attached is screenshot showing drop shadow changes. (AI file is larger than 50 MB.)

Bug. Opening a file only opens the file window. Workspace missing (all other info windows)
Double clicking on my file (when illustrator isn't loaded) opens just the file window. All tools and other windows don't open. I have to manually open a workspace or the individual windows I need. Does anyone else get this?

There is a translation error in the German version of Illustrator 27.1.1 on Mac OS 10.15.7. The English word "Level" was translated to "Tonwertkorrektur" instead of "Textebenen" in the dialogue for bullet points.

Crazy rays produced when selecting a path with many anchor points
When selecting a path with lots of anchor points (1000+) I've been getting crazy rays bursting from the path in all directions in a huge multitude of colors. It's been happening for about a 2 months now. Mainly happens when using group selection tool. All functionality and visibility of the art is lost when this happens and I need to deselect all art in order to carry on. I've attached some images of what the screen looks like when this happens.

Too many brushes saved in Print.ai (Print.ai = 300 MB) disable Trim View, despite 32 GB RAM

Recent files not showing on home screen...only recent cloud documents
My home screen only shows previous cloud documents. I work off of a network and do not use the cloud. This is on my work computer and my home computer after the update to 27.0. I do not need to see my recent cloud documents...just the ones on my computer and network.
