save for web (legacy) ui zoomed in
Windows 10
Illustrator CC 26.3.1 (but has been happening for the last couple of updates)Under Export> Save for web(legacy) the UI that I see is very zoomed in with no scroll bars to move around the window. I'm unable to get to anything past the line in the screenshot. I can hit Enter to save it and can hit Esc to cancel, but can't really do anything else with it.
I have completely reset the preferences and tried checking UI scaling, neither helped.
The first 2 screenshots are from illustrator, the first one is what the…

Problems with text, bounding box, selections, scaling and more
Hello, I’ve been having a problem with Illustrator for now a week. The version I am working with is 22.1 and I am working on a MacBook Pro 15in 2017 with Sierra 10.13.5, Processor: 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7, Memory: 16 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3, Graphics: Radeon Pro 560 4096 MB and Intel HD Graphics 630 1536 MB,
I noticed that the problem always starts showing up when I am working with text, especially when changing the tracking of the text. The problem shows up after usually a couple hours of work and it “resets” when restarting the application or…

GPU continues to randomly turn only white to black (not inverting!)
an ongoing issue with CC is the random and unprovoked flipping of Black to white on screen. Only the color white does this. This is not a case of color being inverted. It is only white in a file that suddenly turns black and then needs to be closed and reopened to fix.

Annoying opening screen
I reinstalled the system. I removed and reinstalled Adobe Illustrator. No solution. I don't understand why the problem is caused.

One column toolbar is not remembered and becomes two columns each launch
Toolbar does not remember the one column setting if "Show the home screen when no documents are open" is uncheck.
Step to reproduce:
- Reset all settings
- Run Illustrator
- For example set "Essentials" workspace (now you have one column toolbar)
- Open preferences
- Uncheck "Show the home screen when no documents are open"
- Check "Use Legacy File New Interface"
- Restart Illustrator
- Now toolbar have two columns (and thats the problem)
You must reset the workspace every time you open Illustrator to keep one column toolbar
This error has already been confirmed by the your employee "Dipak Kumar"

Text Boxes & resizing objects in Illustrator Behaving Strangely
This might be difficult to explain, but at the moment, when pasting text within Illustrator (it can be from a different artboard within the doc, or from a different Illustrator doc, or Word, basically it doesn't seem to matter where the text comes from) or if just create a new text box and type within it, and try to resize the box, it seems to create more text boxes within the main box, and the text would 'snap' into the smaller box. If I stretch the box wider, the text will 'snap' back into the bigger box again, and I…

Disappearing artboards in Illustrator 24.0.3
I created a bunch of artboards and put logotypes (word logos) in them, exported each artboard as separate SVGs, closed the file. When I opened the file the next time, only my first artboard still remained but all my artboards I created after that were gone. This is disruptive because I need to keep the placement of all of the graphics in those artboards consistent as they are going to appear on the same baseline in our product. This is not the first time this has happened to me! I can't attach an image as the content cannot be…

Shear dialog forgets the value
While rotating objects keeps the value of the angle in the dialogue box, bending (shearing) immediately forgets the value. A bug?
Während beim Drehen von Objekten der Wert des Winkels im Dialogfeld erhalten bleibt, vergisst das Verbiegen den Wert sofort wieder. Ein Bug?

Illustrator not effectively handling Windows Desktop Magnification
I have been having so many problems with Illustrator lately and just now realized that it is because of my UltraWide monitor and the fact that I have Windows Magnification set to 200%.
This is not being handled well in Illustrator. It's making the active area around a selected item way too big. I can be 100px off of the selected item and it still wants to rotate. I try to select a point and it's nearly impossible. If you look at all of the "tolerance" bug reports, I would be willing to bet they all deal with magnification levels…

New document screen doesn't close upon creating new document, locking me out of program
The following issue has popped up a couple times now: I'll be working in Illustrator (Windows 10) and want to create another new document. I'll navigate to File>New and be faced with the New Document popup. I'll select my desired parameters and hit "create," and the document will be created behind the popup -- but the popup won't close, and I can no longer click the main Illustrator window to work behind it. I've had to use Ctrl-Alt-Del every time this happens; there's no opportunity to save work. (This has only ever happened when I've had Illustrator already open, never…

Select strokes by clicking anywhere on their stroke, no just the 'path' central part.
It gets tedious really quick having to always be accurate and select the invisible central 'path' of a stroke - why not allow us to select a stoke by clicking on any part of it, of it's pixels rendered on the screen. Like Freehand by macromedia used to allow. Just add it as an option in preferences.
So if you have a Red 20px thick stroke, you can select it by clicking on any of the red stroke as rendered on screen, rather than having to slow down time and space to be super accurate and guess where that central…

Screen flashing while tool tips is on and hoovering over docked toolbar
While using the advanced toolbar and the 'show tool tips' feature, the screen flashes/glitches very fast and violently. I turned off the tool tips and the glitch stops. The tool tips feature is helpful but this glitch makes it useless/painful.

Black screen and duplicating forms randomly while working
- While I'm working with Ai for some time, the screen suddenly turns black and it leaves black even if I'm moving the artboards or window (like in a photo). And only turning off the Ai helps until the next "black" time.
I've got an update of Ai this morning (2021-10-28) and before this problem never happened.
- It sometimes starts to randomly duplicate objects and all the forms, while I'm copying, moving, or transforming them. I don't have a photo right now to show it and I don't know from what this problem depends.

Since MacOs Sequoia upgrade, Illustrator randomly recording / monitoring screen despite disabled in Privacy settings.
Since MacOs Sequoia upgrade, Illustrator randomly recording / monitoring screen despite disabled in Privacy settings. Sequoia bug, AI bug, or Sequoia revealing this was happening all along. Could just be the color picker, could not. Doesnt happen reliably with color picker use. Only happens in Illustrator and only since the Sequoia upgrade. Something isnt working right between the OS and app.
If screen monitoring is turned off, Illustrator should not be able to monitor.1 voteIllustrator uses Apple screenshot API to pick colors outside the Illustrator window with Eyedropper tool. Apple has enhanced security in the recent OS updates to let user know which applications are recording the screen, whether you pick a color value of single pixel or recording the entire screen.
Illustrator is not recording users's screen, it is required for Eyedropper tool to pick color from single pixel.
