An error occurred while saving the comment It seems like it happens only when Ignore Color options is ticked, and stays exactly in place when this option is disabled...
Can anyone verify that please?AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) supported this idea ·

An error occurred while saving the comment It feels like antialiasing stopped working somehow... Strange!
Please try these:
1. Check if you have View > Pixel Preview disabled
2. Try to toggle CPU and GPU modes with Ctrl + E hotkey (or View > Preview on CPU / GPU Preview command)
If #1 does not help, please share the full specs for your computer setup and then try to reset Preferences (here is a nifty instruction: https://astutegraphics.com/support/tutorials-and-troubleshooting/resetting-illustrator-preferences)
Please reply back. -

An error occurred while saving the comment But I must admit that it allows changing its width from the middle only. I’d vote for having an ability to choose an end to scale it from :) Also, I think that an ability to change the length of a straight segment of a path can be interesting, right in the middle. But this feels more specific.

A 'Line' primitive is a thing already, see the image. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Feels similar to this report:
Changing Brush Stroke weight/width changes every other brush stroke in a document

An error occurred while saving the comment Yep. Thanks!
An error occurred while saving the comment This sucks :( Please share the exact hardware details of your setup. Perhaps the team can reproduce it with a same one. Drivers also?
An error occurred while saving the comment You mean it works fine when you switch to CPU mode (or Overprint, which forces Ai to switch into CPU), but comes back when you return to GPU mode? Sorry, I can’t see if you have CPU or GPU in the tab, the text is too small. Or does it stay like this all the time?
When did it start? With 28.0 specifically, from the beginning, or just out of the blue?

The fix is pushed into Global Availability build 28.6.
If it misbehaves still — please comment back.
An error occurred while saving the comment Shihab, they do, here and there. Not only this, but other popups as well. We need more votes on this.

An error occurred while saving the comment Alan, voted.
There is a larger request about this, but it’s only partially completed because of that: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/33526588
But the it also have Align To commands we also need to be able to toggle with hotkeys... -

An error occurred while saving the comment Actually, I think I need an option to never create a spline also.

An error occurred while saving the comment Yep, I see what you mean. Thanks you so much for sharing these.
I think two things about this.
First — it feels like an error to assume these two tools with the same name should behave the same way on different hardware, made by different teams, only because they share the brand... They could have named it something like 'Shape Brush', to avoid expectation, and dilute the false sense of consistency, but I think they were sure it’s close enough or that it’s a better version even.
Second — I am very sorry about the situation with the workflow matching. I personally can’t do anything to help you with it :( except for upvoting this — which I did.
I will merge more requests about this if I find them and try to mention it if I have a chance.AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) supported this idea ·
An error occurred while saving the comment Chris, consistency is a a hard thing to achieve in general, and it’s hard to discuss graphics with no graphics...
Can you please share a couple of recorded videos where you try same-ish settings for Blob Brush on iPad and Desktop, drawing same-looking paths, for the team to evaluate these and fell your actual experience? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Kris, to reiterate once more, Shift + Command + [ / ] do not control kerning, these control tracking instead. It’s a different thing, with different hotkeys.
I agree with René, an option to change it to match OS settings would be nice to have, to allow more users to tweak Ai and make it work as they expect, but I’m against changing the defaults. It should be a weighted and a non-forced decision, since it’s a shared and muscle-memorized behavior.
Don’t ever mess with defaults, it never ends good. I still suffer from having the Y-axis go down. I am learned to not hold Alt in Pathfinder though.AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) supported this idea ·
An error occurred while saving the comment That’s an interesting topic.
In Illustrator on Windows, Alt + arrows kern, and it feels right. Alt + arrows in other apps don't do anything in general, unless an app has a special treatment for these. Shift + Ctrl + [ / ] does not KERN, but changes the TRACKING, which is a different thing.
Ctrl + arrows though always do what Opt-arrows do on Mac.In all apps I tested on Windows, Ctrl + Right moves the cursor right after the word if it has a punctuation sign right after it, or at the beginning of the next word — just like you described, and it does not feel wrong, because it’s a shared unified behavior across all apps.
But I agree it does not feel consistent with Macs’ apps.
So yep, perhaps Ai should allow a) to customize these manually, b) to auto-customize these to match the OS.
Speaking of capitalizing text, one can assign a custom hotkey to it with Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts (I did that).
Another thing is that InDesign’s default hotkey for that (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + K) in Illustrator opens Color Settings dialog, and a LOT of users will get upset if this default hotkey they’ve been using for many years will change just to conform another application. Adobe had made mistakes like these before and they never welcomed when it comes to professionals.
There are methods to deal with it though.
1. Learn. Usually the mind is capable to switch between modalities just fine, and switch between different keyboard schemes, when dealing with them often.
2. Customize. While it’s true different apps (not only Adobe) allow different depths of the allowed customizations (and Ai’s one specifically sucks a lot), there is still a gap one can close themselves.
3. Developers offer to switch premade keyboards schemes. CorelDRAW allows to quickly toggle keys 'like in Ai', InDesign allows to quickly choose hotkeys 'like in Ai or Ps'... hey, it looks like other apps try to mimic Ai, interesting, right?
But hotkey customization is dangerous. When these break and get lost (for different reasons), it's not that convenient to restore them (especially if you forgot to backup), these don’t stick to cloud, and the default set becomes irritating more it used to before you modified it.
Anyway — consistency for consistency’s sake is a trap. The apps only look similar, but they deal with different medias, formats, offer different tools, modes, and have different history. Every play with defaults leads to micro insults amongst users.
So instead of 'make them similar!' please try to point out cases that CAN’T be solve with individual customization. That is something that can be addressed by the team, unlike 'I am no familiar with the app' — which is up to the end user to master.
Finally, I can just imagine a war that can happen between users, when they start to decide WHICH app should be a master one to copy the hotkeys from. Ugh!
