An error occurred while saving the comment Eddie, if you still have the original document with this unduplicated text — perhaps you can make a copy of it, but delete everything else, to protect the data? I’d really prefer it get fixed... I’m glad the workaround exists, but I don’t like the bug still exists I’d also love to learn more about the difference it makes if you select this differently.
An error occurred while saving the comment Eddie, this is not the first time this bug crawls in Ai, but it’s been fixed almost immediately the last time...
Which version are you using?
Can you reproduce it in a new document?
Can you share a test file with this particular text piece only?Just to test — what if you don’t use Type > Create Outlines, but instead apply the Effect > Path Outline Object — do bullelts stay?
An error occurred while saving the comment Paulina, which version are you using? Can you please share a test file, with this text only, for testing?

An error occurred while saving the comment Indeed, if one uses the Direct Selection to marquee a dynamic symbol fully, Illustrator treats it as selecting all elements of it, not as selecting the symbol itself. It makes sense, but I personally see how it can be inconvenient.
However, I don’t understand why Direct Selection is used... I’d use Group Selection instead — it does not select anything inside of a dynamic symbol and treats it as a whole. You are just one Opt/Alt key away from it working as expected — hold it and Direct Selection toggles into Group Selection.I don’t actually think selecting all parts of a dynamic symbol should become a selection of a symbol. On the contrary, many users ask to stop doing the same thing for selecting points, when selecting all the points in a path hides point-specific buttons in Control... similar problem happens when you select all objects in a group when isolated, and Ai treats is as if a whole object is selected (although we are inside of it). So I don’t think Direct Selection should be changed here.
Another way to let symbols selected whole when you already made a selection — Select > Inverse, twice. But this, again, whille select ALL partially selected objects whole, not only symbols.

An error occurred while saving the comment Manuel, I can’t say I understand you clearly.
Stroke Width tool works with brushes — what problem do you have with the combination of these two ? Please elaborate.
Then, it is possible to align stroke asymmetrically — just hold Alt, or double click a width marker if you want to use a precise value.
Finally, you say it does not work in some cases — can you please demonstrate a case like this, and share a test file, so that a team can understand the circumstances to improve the experience?

An error occurred while saving the comment Jakub, what is the result at your side after you do all the steps?
Can you attach some screenshots, please? I can’t say anything wrong happens at my side. Color values don’t change, the displayed colors don’t change...
Can you also share a screenshot of you Color Settings as well? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Ah, I get it now.
Sure! Ai does not offer this form the box, but there is an external solution you can use to achieve the same effect — Extend Path effect form Astute Graphics plugin suite. See the GIF attached.
The suite costs money, but it has a ton of useful tools inside. It’s up to you. You use RubberHose, after all.Note that I had to add another copy of the blue stroke to have a round cap from one side only.
Anyway, a worthy request. Voted!
An error occurred while saving the comment Grégory, can you please share an example? I’m not sure I know of the 'reduce path' thing in Æ.
RubberHose though I am aware of. If you want to apply several strokes to one path, you should open Appearance panel and use it to add as many of those as you like. Does it help? If not — can you please explain the request further? -

An error occurred while saving the comment There is a way to covert a document to a profile needed.
You have to embed a profile into a document first, then change the working color space, then try to open the document (make sure though you have Profile Mismatch 'Ask When Opening' checked in Illustrator’s Color Settings). Illustrator will then ask you if you want to convert the colors for the document or leave them unchanged.
This is not a straight way, but it should work. However, just a command is welcome.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Which of these two monitors are the leading one? Is Ai opened on a secondary or the main one?
Does the behavior change if you move the app frame to the other dsiaply? -

An error occurred while saving the comment This is just a workaround, an existing solution. The suite is not cheap, but it offers much more than just one effect, hence the price.
As far as I know personally, there are no other roughening effects exist for Ai. People try to utilize the native Roughen + ZigZag, and uses premade brushes. None of these do the effect Perturb does, the don’t 'wobble the shape with a grid'. Something can be done manually, with and envelope distortion, but it’s hardly easy to setup.But yeah, that’s a descent request. Upvoted. We need more tools like this.
An error occurred while saving the comment There is a Perturb effect from Astute Graphics plugin suite, which does something different than Roughen.
Roughen is way too straightforward, yep. Can you share the examples of the look you are after? It’s hard to discuss a look without showing anything.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Jeremy, when you do open these — do you just hit enter after making a selection of files? or do you drag-n-drop them into the app frame? If you drag-n-drop — which file do you drag by?
I am rechecking this behavior in Windows 10, selecting files 1-2-3 consecutively, followed with Enter... and I get a whole zoo!
Sometimes they open as 1-2-3, sometimes as 1-3-2, sometimes as 3-2-1, sometimes as 3-1-2! The same exact routine! And sometimes only 3-2 get opened, despite 1 is definitely in the selection.I have more uniformity and predictability if I drag-and-drop. The file I drag by gets opened first, and all others get opened in the descending order. So if I drag by 2, I get 2-1-3. And if by 1 — 1-2-3. Dragging by 3 gives me 3-1-2. So I learned the routine and control myself.
It does not mean it’s the correct way and Enter-way should be random. So voted.

An error occurred while saving the comment Kris they never broke it, as far as I understand. They just didn’t fix it fully. Selecting all children in an isolation should not be treated as selecting the whole parent, not only Appearance-wise (which is now fixed), but for all other means, including Transform Each.
Another thing that behaves like this — try to isolate a group, select all and hide the selection. Ai hides the group, but I personally expect it to hide only children, not the parent group.An error occurred while saving the comment Kris, this is true, and, unfortunately, is expected :(
When all objects are selected in an isolated group, Ai treats the selection as the whole group.
There was a similar problem, when selecting all objects in an isolated group lead to treating is as a group in Appearance: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/34344712-selection-of-all-objects-inside-a-group-instead-se
It was fixed, and now only children get targeted when Cmd/Ctrl+A is pressed when isolated, not the parent...
...but it does not get applied to Transform Each :(AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Selecting all children in an isolated group is treated as selecting the whole group in Illustrator, yeah. So the behavior OP describes, with 'the whole group transforming towards it's central point' is actually the whole group really doing that :/
...but at the same time, if we do select all the children the same way and alter the opacity — it gets applied to the children, not their group (which I think is correct, since I fought for this change)! So Ai should be consistent with it.As for the sublayers, like in the Mait’s case...
It is weird. Sublayers are just nested layers. But Transform Each indeed treats them as objects, transforming each sublayer as if it was a group.I think these are two different problems, but both are wicked.

An error occurred while saving the comment The behavior is not new.
For objects without a fill the Overprint Fill is considered mixed, and for object without a stroke the Overprint Stroke is displayed as mixed — as Kurt says on forums. CS6 does the same.
I am not really sure why Ai does it, really, but even in Ai 10, before 'mixed check states' (minus) got introduced, we had these as 'shallow' checkmarks. Perhaps to mark a 'potentially ambiguous' state?However, why an image with a forced stroke gets a mixed Overprint Fill, and an active one... the only guess — the image still has no fill, but Ai had to add an empty appearance attribute for it when its stroke was forced. Is still has no fill, thus it’s undefined, but the attribute is forced, thus its non-disabled.
It makes somewhat sense. Hard to grasp though.
