Adobe illustrator does not display acute mark for cyrillic fonts
Illustrator does not display acute mark for cyrillic characters. I can copy and paste something like "коты́" from EditText or from web browser, but in illustrator document acute will not displayed no matter which font will be used.
This is very strange bug, because acute marks works in font selector preview (see screenshot)

Select Tool does NOT select! Color swatches don't change item colors!!
There's no idea. You guys are making every day more difficult every time you ***** up a new version. Us poor idiots that work every day with your programs are going crazy keeping up with the changes that don't work, the ideas that benefit some but not all and all the malfunctioning things you've managed to do with the old tools that worked just fine. You're making me hate this profession of graphic designer and you're making me loose money and time every day. Why don't you just fire your engineers and leave us alone?

Continuous drag over locks or visibility in layer palette regularly fails when using Wacom
I have experienced this problem on both macOS and Windows when using a Wacom tablet.
1. Toggle visibility of multiple layers by click-dragging over the eye icons.
2. Toggle the visibility of another layer by clicking on the eye icon.
3. Occasionally the last click will be interpreted as being part of the drag gesture and the visibilty of multiple layers will be affected.
4. Undo doesn't see step 1 and 2 as separate. So undoing gets you back to before step 1.You may have to test this for a while as it doesn't happen very often. A few…

Opening file with multiple envelopes crashes Illustrator CC2019 23.0.1
Opening the file I included will crash CC2019 every time.
Illustrator CC2018 opens the file without a problem.
Expanding the envelopes will stop the crashing in CC2019.
If you delete one of the two layers in the included file, there's only one envelope left and CC2019 opens it without a problem.
Operating System macOS Sierra 10.12.6

Layer Hierarchy Glitch
I've stumbled onto a glitch which breaks my layer heirarchy when copying and pasting. I've outlined it in greater detail in the following thread. I've also attached the file where this occurs.
I've been able to reproduce these results when copying a layer which contains sub-layers with clipping masks. This problem persists even after the mask is removed, suggesting the layers remained glitched in some way after the fact. This is important because it means the glitch can potentially spread through your file as you work with no way of tracking it.

Tools not snapping or showing blue line path or anchor points
The Pen and Direct Tool are not snapping or showing the blue line path when drawing with the tools (Pen tool, Curvature tool, Direct Selection Tool) I have googled forums to see what the issue and it seems to be something that happens when the software is updated every so often or something like that, and shortly before I encountered this issue about 10 minutes ago my software got an update... please fix this :(

Bounding Box, Resizing typography, moving typography all defective
Here are a list of current issues I'm experiencing in Illustrator:
– Bounding box keeps disappearing and reappearing. I'm aware of the different methods of getting it back, they don't
– Moved elements disappear from view, with a bounding box appearing in the area you moved it from but with nothing in it
– Editing typography doesn't always work, I.E. I resize one block of typography, but for some reason, it adjusts a previously selected block; this is happening when adjusting tracking or size
– Editing typography also sometimes has no effect on the typography. Changing the size or tracking…1 vote -

Illustrator cc 2018 does not remember that i choose 'mm' for my general measurements and points for lines & type.

Fonts not synching across licenses on two laptops
My fonts (not from typekit) aren't synching across the licenses of two laptops - so if I want to work on a file from Dropbox I can't as the fonts are missing on the laptop I didn't create the file on. Defeats the purpose of being able to have AI on two laptops.

resize does not respect the homothety
1) It is impossible to draw a specific object
If we write 100 x 100 pt in L and H. This draws: 101,172 x 100,657 pt
It's not accurate and not square !!2) Having the box "keep proportions V and H" checked.
You can not write 200 pt in H and keep the proportion respected.
Example I type V = 200 pt. He writes me V = 202,172 pt and H = 203,292 ptStill not accurate and not square
It's a disaster, because gradually, while working and constantly changing the sizes of these objects, everything becomes oval and…
1 voteThe issue no longer happens in the latest versions of Illustrator.
If it still does for you — please check if the Use Preview Bound option in Preferences > General is disabled, and comment back if toggling it does not help.

Expanded pucker/bloat effect is a circle or ellipse in SVG
Windows 10, Illustrator 23.0.1
- Create a circle or an equilateral rectangle.
- Apply the Pucker & Bloat effect; either one will do.
- Expand appearance. Check that the effects are now regular paths.
- File > Save As > SVG Result: Either check the saved SVG or view the code. The shape that was a circle will be generated as a circle, the rectangle will be an ellipse.
Expected result: The SVG displays the paths as they appear in Illustrator.

Too many bugs. Laggy!
Too much bugs.. Can't open two files at the same time. Stuck at the Recent files screen. Regret getting this version installed.. Nobody check this in adobe before it goes live for download? We are not testers, we pay to use it in our companies for our clients. Do not release new versions full of bugs pls! I beg you ADOBE!
