Dialog windows move / float to the left
Bug Report: Floating windows drift offscreen (see attached video).
Adobe Illustrator 26.4I tried reverting to older versions of Adobe Illustrator, but the issue exists for them as well; To me, that suggests the problem is related to the beta macOS. I am raising this bug now because the issue could present itself as users upgrade to macOS Ventura this fall.

"Align dash to corners and path ends" is broken in 2022.
See title.
Here's two screengrabs of 2021 and 2022 with the following done in them:
- Draw an 800x800 pt circle in the middle of the canvas.
- Set the stroke to 800px wide, black, dashed line on, 12pt in the first dash box, no other gaps/dashes, turn on "align dash to corners and path ends".
2021 renders evenly, as expected, 2022 has the dashes at weird off-kilter angles.
2022 will render evenly if I switch to "preserve exact dash and gap lengths".
Observed on 26.0.2, both with my usual plugins and with them removed, maybe i'll try updating later today to…

While shift-dragging objects green plus appears and picture clipping file is created.
This issue is intermittent, but when shift-dragging an object in order to maintain vertical or horizontal position during movement, a green plus will appear next to the cursor and upon release, the object will snap back to its original position and refuse to be moved until you use the Cmd+Shft+B shortcut, which seems to clear it temporarily. However, if after that green plus appears you drag your cursor off-window to the desktop, a macOS picture clipping file is created. I have been unable to locate any settings for adjusting the behavior of mac's legacy clipping feature, so I'm hoping this…

AIT file does not open as a new AI file when opening from One Drive.
I updated to Adobe Illustrator V26.0.3 today. And now AIT file opens as AIT file.

Layer Arrow Disappears
When collapsing sub-layers of a layer, the arrow to expand the sub-layers is no longer visible. Clicking the eye would restore the arrow, but this is a bug that should be fixed.

Line breaks can be included in artboard names, causing errors
I'm using Illustrator 26.0.2 on Mac OS Catalina.
I often copy titles from the art and paste them into the artboard name box. If the copied title has a line break in it, the line break character will exist within the artboard name, but will not display. (You can tell it's there when moving the cursor via the arrow key, because the cursor will not move when passing the line break character.)
If there is a line break character in an artboard name and you attempt to export the artboard, you will get a generic error. ("Unable to export the…

Gradient does not show when it is being applied on live text
Sometimes i feel handicapped while working with gradients.
It feels like that Illustrator is holding my leg when working with gradients.Gradient does not show when it is being applied on live text (not outlined text), making it difficult to see the current gradient direction and placement when mouse is pressed. Gradient shows when mouse is released.

Spot Colors in Linked or Embedded Images can be Renamed in Swatches Palette, breaking functionality
Double clicking a spot swatch in the Swatches Palette allows you to rename the swatch. In past versions, Illustrator would not allow you to rename the spot swatch if it was used in a linked or embedded image. Now the spot swatch can be renamed whether or not it is used in an image. There is no warning that the spot being renamed is in use. After renaming the spot swatch, the Swatches Palette does not show the spot actually used in the image. Changing the color values of the spot swatch before renaming changes the appearance of the image,…

Overprint and darken doesn't work properly when it doesn't exist a background color.
Illustrator 25.4.1 (64 bit) in Windows 10
When we use darken+overprint in objects that are over some background, we don't have a problem. But if we don't have a background it does the similar to a multiply appearance.
Is there a way to fix this problem?
