An error occurred while saving the comment Mariuxi, what is 'Reformat'? Where did you learn about it? There is Retype one I know about, and there’s a third-party plugin called Reform... Please clarify. Provide some screenshots if you have any.

An error occurred while saving the comment This can be due to the country assigned to your account...
As per this page — https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/get-set-up/learn-the-basics/adobe-firefly-faq.html — Firefly services (and everything 'generate' in Ai is considered to be a part of these) are not available in several countries: Russia, Belarus, China, as well as Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Crimea.
I don’t know for sure what country are you in (and won’t publish it here in a comment if I knew), but this could explain it.
Are you able to see other generative commands, like Object > Pattern > Generate Patterns? or Object > Gen Shape Fill? -

An error occurred while saving the comment I wonder if anything changes if you disable Include SVG Code on copy in Preferences > Clipboard Handling?

An error occurred while saving the comment Illustrator does not allow pasting images into text.
But it does support SVG format, and when an image is copied, Ai prepares it to be pasted into apps that support SVG, as SVG code. So when you are in text editing mode and try to paste, Ai honestly (and a bit dumbly) pasted the code there.
I’d say it should not do this, sure.
And a workaround (except for not trying to paste these like this) would be to disable the Include SVG Code on Copy in Preferences > Clipboard Handling altogether. -

An error occurred while saving the comment A workaround I use is to click the edge of the filled clipping mask — then the value gets picked correctly.
Definitely a bug — please upvote it.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Hmm... This value is used for screen-space snapping, because it’s zoom independent. And it's used for SELECTION, giving us, human users, some slack to not always click pixel-to-pixel to select points.
If we imagine it being able to use absolute units instead, like 1 micron, it’d mean you’d have to zoom a lot to just select a point...
The value for snapping though... I think you mean the ability to control the snapping strength distance, correct?An error occurred while saving the comment Ken, this value works in screen space, with your display’s pixels, zoom independent.
It doesn’t relate to your canvas units at all, therefore linear units can’t be used.
1 px you show is an extremely tight area to perform clicks, requiring inhuman precision!
Why do you set it like this? Can you please tell a bit more about your workflow, just to understand how do you expect it to work? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Thanks for the file!
I confirm this. The only thing that actually survives in the PDF exported is a background and a single triangle form the very first logo indeed, no matter what PDF settings I try.
There is definitely something’s wrong with the logo, twice in fact, that throws Ai off...
I’ve cleaned the object, removed extra points, extra groups, extra fluff, etc... now it gets exported fine — take a look at the file attached.
It’s definitely a bug and should be reviewed. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Hmm... Illustrator recently learnt to sample outside of the main window...
Does it work for you at all if you click the canvas first and then drag it outside? Or does it work but fails when you drag it over the next monitor? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Eyedropper picks the local color of the object underneath, as the Appearance panel displays it, not the rendered color that might happen with blur or other effects or transparency applied — and it seems to be the case here.
There is no way to pick this color natively, but there is a plugin developed that can do exactly this, AG Color Select Tool: https://docs.astutegraphics.com/subscribe/ag-color-select-toolAn error occurred while saving the comment Astute Graphics recently released a dedicated plugin tool just for this, Color Select Tool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBVV_sOTbCQ

An error occurred while saving the comment A way to workaround this is to Rasterize a copy of the stacked stuff and then pick color from it

We have seen this issue specific to macOS 10.15. Enabling “Screen Recording” access right to Illustrator resolved this issue.
You can change this setting by going to Apple > System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Screen Recording and add Illustrator Application.
Please try this and reply in comment if the above suggestion worked for you.

Illustrator TeamAn error occurred while saving the comment It just stopped working for me on Windows 10. The cursor flickers (but it used to), but the only thing is picked is black or white. Doesn’t matter if I call the Eyedropper as a separate tool or activate the button mode within the Color Picker dialog.

An error occurred while saving the comment Missed this.
Kostas, Ai treats all selected children of a group as a selection of the group itself. So when you have all text objects selected within one, Ai thinks you have the group selected, and not its children.
To make it treat them like separate things still — isolate the group. Then the scope will change and Ai will allows to align the objects as you expect.
Or you can jest ungroup it, align and re-group, of course.
Do these method work for you? Please reply. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Does this still happen for you in the latest version of Illustrator? It seems like it no longer happens and the Distribute Spacing buttons no longer change Align to Selection mode into the Align to Artboard on their own?
Can you please check it? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Ben, can you share a portion of this file for testing, please, with the text line and the background underneath?
Also — please check the Appearance and Transparency panels and study the text line. Does it have a specific blending mode assigned? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Anoop, do you use a modern or a classic dialog?
Can you show exactly how do you create a document there? Record a small video?An error occurred while saving the comment Actually a point (which is a a fraction of an inch) is a typographic measure, which is more related to printing, than for a screen use. The way Ai teats it as an equivalent to a pixel is a historical tradition, and it costs it a lot these days, when resolutions differ from those we had when these got linked.
But oh boy I understand your frustration.
But for me units stick too millimeters correctly when changed, and all presets in the Print section of this modern New Document dialog are displayed with 'mm'... Can you recheck if they do for you now?
Guys, what do you say about having Edit > SVG Presets dialog (similar to presets for PDF there)? How often do we need to change several parameters at once and to juggle them exporting files for different tasks? I personally stick to a single set of values, but perhaps someone needs to have different ones regularly?
