3D Extrude & Bevel Mapping Symbol
When I try to map a vector artwork using the 3D Extrude & Bevel Options on the "Map Art" windows shows that the artwork is mapped correctly on the face of shape however the final result stays with the black color of the outline, this does not happen when I do a flat graphic like a JPEG or PNG.
This issue has been happening with multiple versions of illustrator.

Text in connected Area Type Text boxes becomes very unstable when scaling
MacOs Mojave 10.14.6
What did:
Made area type square object
Copied it 13 times, connected it
put this structure under mask (tried also to put every object under it's own mask- same result).
added shape objects
Scaled everything - everything fine.
selected all the text in the structure and write new one with the same font/
Scaled it
Usually if you select this structure of connected area type boxes in company with some shape or object and scale all this, size of text in this boxes changes accordingly.
Result differs every time. Sometimes it's fine, sometimes all the letters have…

Constraint not working properly in Properties
I'm using adobe illustrator cc 24.1.2 on Windows 10 v 1903, The constraint function in the properties tab is not working properly for me. When i press the constraint button, the height and width proportion should stay the same when i change one number, but it changes them to be slightly off. If i make a circle 500 x 500, constrain the dimensions, and change the height to 250, it changes the width to 249.499. It doesn't matter what numbers i use, it will always change the other dimension to be slightly off what it should be.

Tabs randomly stop functioning, will only show one project
Since one of the recent CC updates at the end of February, both Illustrator and Photoshop have been having a glitch multiple times a day with their tabs. You'll go into the program and see one of your projects open, but when you click on another tab it still shows the original project. The only way you can see your other projects is if you take them off the tab bar into a separate window. All tool panels behave exactly the same. The only way I can fix this is to take every single one of my projects off the…

Find and replace superscript
I've tried copying the superscripted text to the clipboard and pasting in the Replace box of the Find and Replace dialog, but it loses the superscripting, and pastes into the document without it. I find I have to go into each occurrence individually and superscript each one.

Inconsistencies in adding gradient swatches in Adobe software and Adobe's instructions for Illustrator gradient swatches are incorrect
Only one of the methods listed on the Adobe Illustrator help page regarding adding gradient swatches actually works..
There is no 'Add to Swatches' button in the Gradient menu (in fact, there is no Gradient menu, only a Gradient panel).
Dragging the Gradient fill box from the Gradient Panel to the Swatches panel does absolutely nothing.
Furthermore, the instructions 'Click the swatches menu in the Swatches panel and choose New Swatch' fails to explain the fact that you need to have your gradient selected and active in the active Fill or Stroke boxes.
On top of all of this, all…

Actions don't work with function keys in Illustrator 2020
In CS6 the function keys worked fine to invoke actions. In Illustrator CC 2020 the function keys operate as Mac function keys but can't be used to invoke an action. For example, I have Shift + F3 programmed in AI to save a file as .PNG to the current disk. I know the action does what it should because when I double-click it in the Actions menu it works fine. When I press shift+F3, I get the multi-file window, which is the native Mac keyboard function for F3. It's as if the programmers forgot to override the Mac function keys…

Symbol disappears when edited in place
When you have a symbol on the artboard, double click it to go into isolation mode, make some changes, exit isolation mode — the symbol disappears from the artboard.

"Save as" Illustrator bug
Hi. I have the latest 2020 version of Illustrator 24.1.2.
When I press "Command" + "S" it starts to save. Once it is finished saving it used to have an asterisk in the file name that disappears to indicate that it has been saved. The asterisk no longer disappears. It remains.
Then when I close after saving it gives me the attached "save" box, and says that "if I don't save my changes will be lost", but if I click "Command" + "S" and then close without saving it does save.
It makes things very slow. I can't work like…2 votes -
Illustrator suddenly changed from RGB to CMYK
Windows 10, Illustrator 2020
Working on a digital comic and suddenly colour has been changed
from RGB to CMYK, which means I cannot copy and paste the colours
I was repeatedly using anymore.Black colour has been automatically replaced by a dark greenish black;
upon further inspection, it can be seen that it is not completely black. It feels odd at plain sight. I have manually selected each line which has changed colour, but it keeps going back to that dark greenish black.

Excluding fill and stroke settings when applying a graphic style
Intention: I want to have a graphic style for applying shadows (using the material UI shadow requirements)
Because it does not seem to be possible to just copy and paste and existing effect of an element (like a drop shadow on a square element) I am using a workaround.
I created a graphic style with my desired shadow. I noticed that when applying the graphic style to element, it overwrites its color and stroke values.
I thought the setting "override character color" would prevent that from happening, but it doesn't. Every time I'm applying a graphic style it replaces the…
