An error occurred while saving the comment Very strange. Why would Ai try to launch a script for InDesign?
Just as a workaround idea: what happens if you go to this folder and temporarily move this file someplace else? Will Ai launch without problems? -

Please get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html . Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.
An error occurred while saving the comment Brian, there is a dedicated bug report about rulers and GPU, please upvote it:

An error occurred while saving the comment Interesting...
I can’t think of a bulletproof method of preventing this. A message on save is an option, yep... but it’d be hard to tell if having stuff on canvas outside of the artboard is intentional or not. Still better than nothing.
As a workaround I advise to use Save a Copy method instead of Save As, in cases when you wish to continue to make changes into the original. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Usama, I agree on the appearance (and that’s one of main reason Outlines exist — to ignore appearance), but why can’t you select paths behind other paths? You mean by clicking their fills, not the outlines? Can you please elaborate on this, give some examples?
An error occurred while saving the comment A random video from YouTube about X-Ray mode, to demonstrate the Blander’s approach:

An error occurred while saving the comment Can you give more details on the GPU you use and the exact OS build?
An error occurred while saving the comment Oliver, does it help to toggle the rendering mode from GPU to CPU? Try it, please, with View > Preview on CPU command (Cmd + E)

An error occurred while saving the comment In the latest version, 27.9, correct?
Can you verify if the previous one has the same problem? What about Beta version?
Does it help to drag out a horizontal one and, before releasing it, hold Opt, to toggle it to a vertical one? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah... I don’t see clicks, they don’t get highlighted with this recorder, but I suppose you try to click in the end.
What happens if you try to immediately open the dropdown, right after you choose 1200%, without panning or moving?
What happens if you try to access the field next to it, and type a value? Can you focus it? Can you type in it? Can you commit the value? Does it get applied?An error occurred while saving the comment Maggie, can you please make a small video demonstrating this behavior?
Try to click the first time and then show how it fails the other time.Does it help to close and reopen the doc? To maximize or restore the window? move it?

An error occurred while saving the comment I can’t say using AG Offset is harder than in Plasticity and Moi 3D... but I don’t use these professionally, and I don’t recall exactly how they do it now — but it’s easy to have only one offset AG’s tool — select and drag. If you had other values set previously, hitting a dedicated key while dragging should reset them, giving you that one offset...
But yeah, it is paid, I know.
Can you make a short GIF or a video to demo how Moi 3D handles it today, please? I doubt the Ai team uses Moi 3D.An error occurred while saving the comment Another way of making this, other than with a complex routine I described below, is to use a third-party plugin, AG Offset by Astute Graphics. It makes adding live offsets to objects a rather simple operation.
An error occurred while saving the comment Oh yes.
And while we wait — you might want to try AG Offset Path effect by Astute Graphics, which has just the exact tool you are describing, with snapping, more options (and more).
But I suppose you are aware of it, right? :)An error occurred while saving the comment Meanwhile you can use AG Offset tool that has all of this and more, from AstuteGraphics plugin pack. Super handy to use.
An error occurred while saving the comment Can you mockup a picture describing how it could look without breaking current paradigm? I seem to fail to imagine this.
An error occurred while saving the comment Well, it's quite possible to do now.
Here's a little tutorial how to do it:
https://imgur.com/a/rrOo5You create your strokes with different widths, group them, apply 'Outline stroke', make another group (see note below), then apply new fill to a second group and then applying Offset path to this fill.
Note: the only problem is that you can't make second group with only a group selected, but you can trick AI to do it, adding temp object, grouping it with a group and then deleting it.

An error occurred while saving the comment I am almost sure the team believes it's an intended way to do this.
Changing the scaling of the asset / artboard won’t change the scaling of the resolution, since no resolution is written into these. The Export for Screens methods just don’t write it AT ALL — and never did. Exporting for SCREEN suggests the images will be used for screen purposes, and screens don’t really care about the resolution coefficient, since images get displayed AS IS, without fitting some number of pixels into an inch.If you wish to have resolution written, you should use the older Export As dialog, which deals with it and writes it.
So it’s hardly a bug, but rather a feature request — to make another export method that allows to have all benefits Export for Screens have compared with Export As, but also respecting print media, which cares about resolution. Do you agree? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Related to this report:
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/47307278An error occurred while saving the comment The gap between numbers/bullets and text is controlled be the Left / First Line Indent values, which can be changed in Options dialog — press little down arrow (it says 'See options') next to the Bullets or Numbered List buttons, then the three dots button ('More options').
These values behave like the normal indentation values you can edit in the Paragraph panel, and they are also not relative, but absolute. If you scale the text the way there is not enough space to fit a bullet or a number, it will jump to the doubled values, to the next tab position. Tabs are omitted in this method, and are controlled with the indentation itself.
This is not technically a bug, but I believe a way to scale indents with the text can be added.
I think you should log this as a feature request instead. Will you do this? -

An error occurred while saving the comment At the the same time I know there is a request to be able to add symbols into the text, like InDesign intentionally can:
https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests/suggestions/32360128-in-line-graphics-anchor-object-to-text-ability
And this bug looks like Ai already CAN do that...Or is it the symbol with an arrow you demonstrate has a live text, which is a symbol font, that displays the arrow character?
An error occurred while saving the comment I have NO idea what is going on there.
Even with the video, even with the description... this is something very weird.
You copy and paste a text. When you do that, a SYMBOL (not a text symbol, but a symbol from Symbols panel) gets added INTO the text?! And it can be treated like a TEXT character?
Sorry, I do not get it at all. Can you please share the actual file — if this bug is still with you in the latest version? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Overprint preview forces Ai to turn off GPU preview.
Usually it’s not that a great difference (maybe it’s because I am used to CPU while GPU still feels faster)... i5 is a quite fast thing... It might be a document that you are editing.
Do all you documents behave the same way? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Does it help to toggle CPU/GPU? Zoom in? Pan a bit?
Does it happen often? Are there steps that predictably lead to this result? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Can you reproduce it in a new document?
Does Ai crash when you are not copying a guide, but try to duplicate it with Alt+drag?
Christopher, please share the original file, along with the settings you used to export the PDF. Send these over to sharewithai@adobe.com, and add the link to this report, so that the team can track it: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/47320565
