    Exactly!
    Currently I have to edit the value in Character and then redefine a style. Works, but is inconvenient at best.

    Rasmus, I am just a user, and I feel as enraged as anyone who comes here sometimes. Ai is a flawed tower of bugs, and you don’t have to remind me of it :)

    What I see is that you have Construction Guides disabled. These apply when you draw a NEW object (according to the manual, https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/rulers-grids-guides-crop-marks.html)
    What you see when you edit a path like you showed previously, are guides for Transform Tools — since you transform the path. If you uncheck the Transform Tools option, you won’t see 45° angles.

    Why can’t we customize angles for object guides? Well... there are related requests, but it seems not that much people upvote them:
    1. More fields to Smart Guides angles — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48960053
    2. True customizable drawing 'angles' for all tools when using SHIFT key (pen, pencil, brush) — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48073562
    3. Smart Guides and the Rotate Tool: Incremental Rotation Angles — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/39621259

    Rasmus, the fix works, because it restores the previous behavior.
    The extension of curved segments never worked in the first place, so we can’t expect from a 'fix' to introduce it :)
    And 45° and 90° smart guides are nothing 'new' and were there for much longer, before 'Line Extension' even happened...

    But if you wish for a 'Line Extension' to be a general 'Path Extension' (something it never was, and is a good thing to have), you can upvote a corresponding feature request here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/39843283

    The proposed fix is not good and does not match the behavior we had before.

    The tolerance the guide uses to allow the sliding is MUCH smaller with this fix than it was before.
    Take a look at these two GIFs attached: one is from Ai CC2018 (v22.0.0), when the guide is stable and the tolerance allows to move a point almost continuously, and the other one from PR v29.0.1.192, with the guide blinking, and precise sliding required.

    Not fully fixed.

    I’d say smart guides happened after the initial 0-45-90 Shift constraints got added, and devs decided not to mix these together, so that Shift always worked as expected even with custom SG angles... After all, holding Shift is not 'Smart', it’s 'Forced'... but I get your idea.

    Presets is clear enough as well.

    Not sure if I get about the 'tool' though... accessing a section in Preferences is not a tool, and adding not a tool to a toolbar would be extra-cinfusing and wrong.
    A customizable panel with various buttons for different commands is another thing (and there was a request about it around).
    But perhaps it’s not what you meant...

    DirectPrefs panel by Astute Graphics actually does not introduce new controls, but just eases the way to customize the existing parameter, Constrain Angle, accessible in Preferences > General, the second field from above. Zero by default, it makes Shift to follow horizontal and vertical axes.
    If you set it to something like 15 — well, if you use DirectPrefs, you know how it works, axes get rotated by 15°.

    Assuming you know that — what do you suggest exactly?
    Currently these snapping angles would still be 45° away from each other, that is just increased or decreased by said 15° or other value...
    Do you want these to be completely custom? Smart Guides section, as you noticed, provides a way to define up to six angles — but these are not bound to Shift — do you mean to combines these with Constrain Angle parameters and make AI to follow set angles when Shift is held?

    Ah, I see what you mean now, you are referring to the Beta feature for picking gradients specifically from images (so I fixed the title to make it clear).

    True, the team decided to pull it off.
    I don’t know the reason for it yet, but my guess is that is was not telegraphed and integrated clearly enough and never allowed a way to control the behavior.
    Another guess would be that it’s not that powerful as the recent toolset form Astute Graphics, and they decided to not undermine a third party: https://astutegraphics.com/learn/update/new-color-picker-suite

    If any news happen, I will update.
    Meanwhile, if you like the feature, upvote this request the team made to evaluate the interest:
    https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48711236

    Amir, can’t verify that :( Trying in both Beta and GA release (since you posted this in the Beta branch — did you mean that?)
    Please share a screenshot of your Eyedropper settings still (just in case).
    What about a previous release? Can you try to install it instead of the latest one and compare the behavior?

    Clayton, yes!
    Funny thing is Ai can do that, but doesn’t expose the controls to do it.
    But luckily we have plugins, and AG Layer Comps does exactly the thing, offering to remember top layers’ visibility states, the zoom level (the one you need), as well as view coordinates. Works flawlessly.

    But sure Ai should do this from the box, so I upvote this.

    Yep, views in Ai work like this and don’t allow to choose which aspect we can include or exclude...
    There is a related entry about views:
    Add option when creating New View to opt out from changing zoom level
    https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/35161204

    As I say in the comments, for now we can workaround this with AG Layer Comps plugin — it doesn’t care about lock states, but cares about other aspects.

    Some proofs it doesn’t work.

    Take a look, please.
    The language is Russian (the font is PT Sans Normal, https://fonts.google.com/specimen/PT+Sans).
    A third line has two Cyrillic 'оо' together at the end of the line. It’s a 'composite' word and has to be hyphenated between these two letters.
    However, Ai tries to put a hyphen after both of them. To guide Ai and avoid inserting a real hyphen and a soft break (in case the layout changes later), I inserted a discretionary hyphen in-bwetween.
    Hyphenation gets only applied with every-line composers, so I can’t tell if it’s a ELC problem or not (and I need it to be ELC it seems, although SLC should respect the discr hyphen as well, no?)
    Well, the hyphen still gets inserted after both 'оо', no between them, where I placed the discr hyphen...
    If I reproduce the exact same object in InD — it works as expected — images attached.

    Estlin, this looks familiar to me and I had it several times already, but not in the most recent version, but in all others through years. It’s nothing new :(
