All looks jagged
Jagged when using the Pen tool, on texts and on curved paths.
Tried toggling the GPU and CPU preview , reinstalling the updated app, updating the drivers, updating Windows 10. The issue is still not resolved.
Clearly see the the lines are not smooth in outline mode too.

Objects sliding when switching between outline and preview
Most of the times I'm working with quite simple graphics (preparing already existing logos and graphics for printing).
Sometimes when switching from preview to outline view, and back, I notice that some objects aren't where they are supposed to be. In outline view they are at their supposed position, but in preview they are somewhere else. It isn't a big problem when I notice it happening - the problem is when I don't and print it like that. When I notice it, moving the object, pressing unite, or several other actions will make the object pop back to their right…

Stroke stays black even when changing colour
Stroke stays black even when colour is changed. Only way to make it another colour is to expand appearance, which means losing original unless saved off the artboard
2 votesProbably it’s the same problem as this one, and you have accidentally created a complex appearance either for the layer or the path. You have to open the Appearance panel and study the stack of attributes.

Character Panel Typing Font Names Manually Issue
When trying to type certain font names manually in the first field the placement of the letters jumps to the wrong spot.
When I type "Arial Bold", "Arial Regular", or "Cooper Black" the cursor or text placement seems to fail and not type the text in order from left to right. I saw one other post here with a similar issue but it could not be reproduced. This is the first time I have seen this so far on the new Illustrator CC 2020. After typing the "o" in "Arial Bold" the letters end up typing to the left of…

v23.1.1: Text with the "Outline Object" effect and Preview Bounds enabled has shifted to the right when opening an existing file
We have existing AI files with text, which has the following characteristics:
- Text has the Outline Object effect enabled;
- Illustrator preferences "Preview Bounds" is checked;
- Paragraph is "centred"When we open these AI files we find that the text has been shifted to the right a little bit.
This has occurred on both the Windows 10 and Mac OS Mojave operating systems. To fix the issue we downgraded to Illustrator 23.0.6

Why did you add a stroke to the Layer Thumbnail of empty layers?
In previous versions of Illustrator, if you deleted all the content of a layer or sublayer, you could immediately see that it was empty because its thumbnail in the Layers palette lost its stroke. Now all layer thumbnails have a border regardless. This was a very useful feature, and I can't imagine why it would deliberately be removed. Can you please add it back?

Type objects duplicated on top and converted to outlines
Sometimes when opening up a file, type objects are copied and placed exactly above the original type object, and converted to outlines. There are sometimes anywhere from 1 to 3 duplicated objects. It usually affects every type object in the document. The same issue has been affecting my colleagues' computers, and we often work off of the same documents and share them with each other.
We all have 15" MacBook Pros, using either Illustrator version 2018 or 2019, on Mojave.
2 votesDoes this problem happen with the latest Illustrator build?
If it does — please provide additional information:
1. What is the format of the document used, .ai or .pdf?
2. Does it happen with all the the type objects in a document, or only for some specific fonts, or point / area type only?
3. Do these have any effects or custom appearance applied?
If you have a chance to create a test file with this issue reproducible — please share it in the comments.

text change when opening in Illustrator CC 2019
Illustrator 23.0.1 on Mac OS 10.12.6
I have issues when I open a document that was created in Illustrator CC2017 in CC 2019. It seems that the text spacing is different, so sometimes some characters are changing to the next line!
See example exact same document between CC 2017 and CC 20192 votes -
Welcome screen doesn't resize to scaled display on Mac
Welcome screen shows up bigger than available screen space when the Mac's display is set to scaled. This leaves out important buttons and info. Welcome screen and document windows should resize to fit screen when opened. Already open documents should at least align to the top right corner if the display scale is changed while Illustrator has open documents. This allows access to the semaphore buttons on the window bar.

SVG text export inconsistent failure 23.0.1
On SVG export, one text node receives ID as expected, the other is wrapped in a <g> and given the id that should be on the text node (which has no id).
I don't know how to produce this result—it's happening intermittently in a large existing file. I was only able to whittle it down to an example, but this system won't let me attach an illustrator file (lol)
