An error occurred while saving the comment Brandon, there is a way you can make this in Illustrator now — not exactly with complex shapes, but it depends on the contents.
To do that, open the Appearance panel.
Select you text and add another fill to it using this panel.
Drag this fill under under the Characters attribute.
With this fill selected, go to Effects > Convert to Shape > Rectangle and assign values you need with the Preview on to see what they do. Set the padding you need.
If you want to shift it — apply Effects > Distort & Transform > Transform effect.You can then style the rectangle further with the Appearance panel.
You can use Ellipse instead and have sort of a bubble.There are many advanced techniques Appearance provides, and if this helps you — you have a long and interesting journey ahead of you. Appearance is a magic box.
Please comment back if it works for you and if it does not, I'll try to help further.

As per the comment, this can be done by clicking one of the selected objects to define it a key, to make all other object in the selection to align to this key.
Other apps rely on order of selection, and this is something users request to able to toggle here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/39711583
As for the Align to Artboard switch — it is useful when you have a selection of objects and want to align all of them to an artboard. In these cases the default mode Illustrator enables is Align to Selection, and you have to toggle it manually.
An error occurred while saving the comment Micah, do you know about key objects?
The thing you want to achieve is done with these.
You can read about them here:
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/moving-aligning-distributing-objects.html
But in short, you need to have just one more step between your 2 and 3 — click (not sure why you said 'touch') the 'parent' object again to set it as a key object (it will become highlighted with a thicker edge).'Parent' and 'child' in Illustrator mean other things, that’s why perhaps you didn’t find the proper way to align objects to each other.
Doe this help, or did you find it by yourself (2018 was 4 years ago)?

An error occurred while saving the comment Strange. I am able to import an EMF file without problems.
Can you please share a file you can’t import?
If you can’t make it publicly, please send it over sharewithai@adobe.com, and add the link to this issue: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/45463000 -

An error occurred while saving the comment Carol, I tried to reproduce it, and the very first time I tried to resize a piece of text with constrain proportions on, it indeed has become smaller than I typed in. Then I tried again and it worked fine. I assume the larger is the difference between the initial size and the target one, the bigger is the calculation error.
What happens if you try to resize the text one more time? Does it become the right size?Also, your case is a different case compared to this bug report. You should have made a new one, instead of commenting here. Can you do that?

An error occurred while saving the comment Tracy, you say the S4W is no longer listed in the menu?
It is for me. As far as I know, the team had no plans of removing it.
Can you recheck it, please? What version of Ai are you using? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Julia, this is way too broad to be fixed!
What art, what document, which of three ways to generated an SVG, what settings?
The team won't have a chance to even research it with 'everything got broken'....Can you please share the file (here, or via sharewithai@adobe.com), give exact details about options used, etc.?

An error occurred while saving the comment It does. Now I see what you mean. It's also strange how you can keep holding the mouse but release the Cmd/Ctrl and see how Ai stops redrawing the partial movement completely after one attempt (if it does make a sense to you).
Somewhat similar behaviour can be noticed with copying with Alt held – you have to move art at least pixel away to start seeing the original position of the object being dragged.
Yep, this better be addressed, although it's not that terrible.An error occurred while saving the comment Russel, this looks weird. Why does the toolbox always have p
the Plain Selection tool picked, when you are using the Direct Selection one?
Why do you say you hold the V key down? What's a point of holding it and what do you expect to achieve by doing that?
And nope, I can't replicate it so far, with or without V being held... Please elaborate further. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Log in where? Here? This site is an external service, and they have their own rules for it. Adobe uses it, but can’t change the policies UserVoice have.
Now please give some more context about this particular problem.
What do you even mean by 'pasting an image between layers'? You mean 'layers', like 'Layer 1', 'Layer 2' in Layers panel, or objects in these layers?
It’d help immensely if you had a short GIF or a video recorder, or at least a screenshot taken.Also, if Affinity Designer excels at this — attach same stuff for their approach to this. Honestly, I just can’t figure out what you mean. Sorry!

An error occurred while saving the comment Ctrl+Shift+O? This command does not outline strokes, it is used to create font outlines. Perhaps you meant this, right?
Have you tried to assign any other hotkey to this command to see if the problem is specifically with the Ctrl+Shift+O combination?
The second way would be to quit any other program except Illustrator to be sure no other app steals this hotkey — because it is a known problem Ai can do nothing with. Skype steals Ctrl+Alt+Shift+D, some other apps steal Ctrl+Shift+0 (zero), etc.

An error occurred while saving the comment When you check Preferences > General, is your 'Show The Home Screen When No Documents Are Open' option ON or OFF?
An error occurred while saving the comment Home screen is an insult, that’s it :(
So you are able to create new docs via File > New..., right?
If not, please try to toggle 'Use legacy "File New" interface' in Preferences > General, as a workaround. If it helps, than it’s also the problem with Modern File New dialog (which is an insult too).
Please comment back. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Yep, this happens with many other fonts. Illustrator respects the ascender/descender area, the whole glyph sort. When it happens to me, I move the larger line of text behind the smaller one.

An error occurred while saving the comment Jason, which thumbs are you talking about?
Thumbs in Layers? Or thumbs in Finder? If the latter than Ai can’t do anything about that, I am quite sure.
Either way, please give some more details, please. -

An error occurred while saving the comment There is a workaround, but I have no idea about the nature of it.
If the clipping path is a compound path (even if it has path within) — it CAN be dragged.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment I have a rectangle clipping mask around a circle (doesn't really matter). When rectangle has no fill, I click it and nothing gets selected — expected, fine. But when I fill my clipping mask and try to select it by clicking the colored area — it does nothing. It works for everything, except for colored clipped masks :) You have to drag over the edge only. It doesn't matter if you clipping mask is over or under (in this case, btw). It should work.

An error occurred while saving the comment I suppose you mean the iPad version, since you refer to desktop capabilities, right?
If so, can you please elaborate a bit more?
Nora, does it still happen for you with newer releases?
