An error occurred while saving the comment What a great request.
Some of these were indeed mentioned here and there in separate entries, but some of these (being absolutely worth it) — weren’t.
Voted.Some of the hiccups you describe can be avoided with a plugin tools from Astute Graphics suite. They have to build over the existing tech, so some issues can’t be resolved by these tools — like the hole-patching on tight curves — but some other things you never mentioned can be done, and controls are fine. If you deal with these often, I advise you to at least check it out: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=widthscribe
I won’t split this request into separate ideas, but I’d appreciate you making new entries here as split ones: these usually are easier to vote for, to evaluate, and to search for.
And huge thanks for making it in the first place, welcome. Do not hesitate to vote for existing entries here. It matters.

An error occurred while saving the comment Philippe, do you have any clipboard managers installed?
Does it help to toggle the 'On Copy: Include SVG Code' option in Preferences: Clipboard Handling? -

Hi All,
Please update Illustrator to version 23.0.3, we have fixed this issue in this version.
Thanks & Regards,
Raghuveer SinghAn error occurred while saving the comment @Tuan, sure I don’t think like that. More of it, I am against having this option in this dialog only, for this exact reason — it can freeze. I even talked with a developer about it, but don’t have any news.
What version do you have? If it’s higher than 23, than it’d be a reason to change the status of this report back.An error occurred while saving the comment @Sharif, for general questions like this I recommend using Adobe Illustrator Support Community instead: community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator/ct-p/ct-illustrator
But actually the dialog has an option in its left bottom corner, 'Don’t Show on Document Open'. Enable it and it should work and stop showing you this on a opening a file. -

An error occurred while saving the comment A similar report:
Scissors tool should be aware of stroke width profiles and brush tool data
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/44457144An error occurred while saving the comment Take a look at two GIFs attached.
Black is how it behaves now.
Green is how we want it to be able to behave (a mockup of it).Sure, it means Ai would have to add more width markers to make the look stay the same...
...but then it means there should be a way to NOT add add extra markers, and it’s OK the outlines change — I personally would prefer this method.An error occurred while saving the comment

An error occurred while saving the comment A similar report:
Width tool messes up the width points when a path is extended / shortened / cut
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/35891749An error occurred while saving the comment Margaret, just so you know — AG Trim & Join CAN respect width profiles, so cutting a path in two with is doable, although takes one extra step (here I am pasting a copy and hide the already cut piece).

An error occurred while saving the comment Plus the Escape key is just not given to plugins to handle, and they can’t use it to neither commit or cancel the input.
An error occurred while saving the comment This should be an option we can toggle.
The option can help to let users choose what to do with large inputs.
Take a look at how Photoshop handles it in Preferences > Type: Use ESC key to commit text (plus notice They Don’t Capitalize All Like Ai does).The same thing should be in Illustrator, for BOTH type inputs on canvas AND value inputs.

An error occurred while saving the comment Jan, not sure I understand what you mean exactly...
Do you refer to isolation mode, or to the opacity mask, or something gradient-related?
Does it even happen for you still? Please comment back. -

An error occurred while saving the comment To solve this for me, I wrote a very simple script which always creates a blue layer for me. It can be modified to have any other color you want, including black.
I put in the action and hacked it instead of default Cmd/Ctrl+L with a remapping app (you it can be simply run with an F-key instead).
You can download the script here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/78vzy3u79e6erxu/New%20Layer%20Custom%20Color.jsxAn error occurred while saving the comment Chris, not you alone.
Check out this script by Takataka:

An error occurred while saving the comment I am not against having this option, I upvoted it after all.
But I think 'consistency for the sake of consistency' is a dangerous path.
InDesign’s pages are not Illustrator’s artboards (although artboards can be used as pages).
Artboards are more like viewports, frames that can overlap, nest, easily have various sizes, while in InDesign it takes some effort to introduce a page with custom dimensions. This is the same reason 'layers' and 'artboards' are two parallel structures (unlike frames in Figma).There is a request about it, BTW:
Artboard-specific Layers — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31133392So these don’t look like ducks and don’t quack like ducks, therefore no parity — initially. Just a different paradigm.
Still I need an option to keep the zoom level!
And I really want Ai to not zoom into a newly created page as well, like it’s been before it got changed:
https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/45689917An error occurred while saving the comment K-O, there are users who are completely OK with that auto-zoom approach. Some of them just don’t care, some are really into it.
I’d use both, as I do have different designs. But as I see it, the 'additional zoom to fit' should bee optional, only when I intend to.The status of it is unknown. 14 votes it currently has usually not enough to push a request above others, with higher vote count... This, again, can signal that not enough of us users care :( We need more attention for it.
An error occurred while saving the comment As for now, we can use these scripts to jump between artboards with the zoom level kept: https://onthehead.com/#cat-ais-view
I mapped these to Wn + PageUp/Down hotkeys using an external utility, works for me.

An error occurred while saving the comment No.
There should be an OPTION to make it work that way, because some people USE current behaviour.I would use both, depending on task.
So I vote for this, but only as an option. Not a DEFAULT option. -

The issue is no longer happening in Ai Beta 28.4.0.8
An error occurred while saving the comment I can’t replicate this with the latest builds...
All three versions I tried break links to several different selected symbols, using both the button in Control panel and the menu command in the Symbols panel’s flyout menu.An error occurred while saving the comment What about this also?
Drag-n-drop several symbols at once

An error occurred while saving the comment Boolean mode, by the way, is available with the Super Marquee Tool from Astute Graphics plugin suite:
https://docs.astutegraphics.com/colliderscribe/super-marquee-tool/super-marquee-tool-operationsAn error occurred while saving the comment @Jinmu, the tool is a part of their ColliderScribe pack, for a historical reasons (before SaaS model they used to sell these in packs).
https://astutegraphics.com/learn/update/select-like-a-pro-with-super-marqueeYou can search for it at YT with an ease also:
https://youtu.be/l9QuUIK_HxQSome written documentation is being made although, but not published yet, AFAIK.
By default the tool works in the default 'toggle' mode and the 'boolean' mode has to be enabled, in options on on the fly with a dedicated button press.
An error occurred while saving the comment Meanwhile Astute Graphics has this Boolean mode in their SuperMarquee tool. The plugin is paid, but it exists and it works, and it provides a feedback on what is selected before the section is made. Worth trying.
An error occurred while saving the comment You should look at the Super Marquee Tool from AstuteGraphics plugins pack. It feels like it does exactly what you want.

An error occurred while saving the comment I like this one.
A Boolean mode instead of a Toggle mode we have now.
And of course, as an option!An error occurred while saving the comment Meanwhile there is a trick that allows us to convert a partial selection to a full selection of selected paths — double Invert Selection command. By default it dies not have an assigned hotkey, but I changed it manually to be Ctrl+Shift+I, to be consistent with Photoshop (and moving Spellcheck to something else — it should be real-time anyway).
The only problem is that you have to be sure that you need to run it, that is the partial selection has to be obvious.As for the Boolean modes — yes, we have no workarounds. Voted.

An error occurred while saving the comment @Rixn, I’d very much love to take a look at an example of this symbol-heavy document, at least a screenshot of it, along with a fragment of the Symbols included in the panel — just out of curiosity, to wrap my head around the necessity. Can you share some, please?
And yes, sure. this should be an option only.

Kristaps, does it happen with the latest global availability build, 28.5?
Does it happen for all the documents you try to export, or only this one?
Does it help to change a format or export parameters, like resolution, color mode, etc?
What Export method do you use — Export for Screens, Export As, Save for Web, a custom script?
Can you share the parameters used, a test file you can reproduce this problem with?
