An error occurred while saving the comment VectorFirstAid form AstuteGraphics plugin pack can partially solve this, but it greatly depends on the quality of the imported file.
Have you tried it, Ola? It’s a paid tool, but it helps more than it costs.And, yes, I’d like to have something like this form the box...

An error occurred while saving the comment The line is indeed there, 1px wide, and has CMYK6-6-6-6 color.
It’s not an Acrobat rendering issue, it’s a solid line, a print defect and a cause to reject the batch.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment It feels like the Illustrator window is not in focus when you press the hotkey and it goes to OS... and it does what it should. Are you sure the window is focused?
If it just started to behave like this, and you are still on 2020, and it never used to behave like this, I assume this is not Ai’s fault... -

I am closing the ticket due to lack of response.
Please get in touch with us at sharewithai@adobe.com or any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html . Please give a reference to this post so that we can identify you.
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.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Hm. I am checking this in the fresh release, and yeah, pressing and holding Shift before clicking the object (no matter if it’s text or not) deselects it.
But when I check this in older versions, like 10, it is the same exact behavior. So it was never an option to do that. Shift+click always subtracted/added to selection.
Click and hold Shift after is the way to constraint, and it works — first drag then constrain.Mark, you were the last who joined the report — can you shed more light on that, please?

I am glad to remind all who voted for this feature that it is now possible to set a font size as x-height or cap height with Show Font Height Options toggle enabled in Character panel menu.
Some issues still remain, yes, like, wrong size calculation if a font has rounded stems that end below baseline (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/44639661-font-height-options-misbehave-with-rounded-fonts), or inability to focus the dropdown with Tab (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/41836618-font-height-options-tab-order), or calculating font height by measuring glyphs instead of reading the actual value within the font (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/41615035-cap-height-setting-not-using-font-cap-height), but overall this is done, works, and super cool, don’t you think?
An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah, Bobby, you are right, the measuring is done by actual glyph measuring. This leads to the exact problem you assumed with the rounded stems with overshoots below the baseline — I learned it the hard way. Actually I hoped that Illustrator will grab the font data to set font height... but I now have doubts. If this information is available, why then the team decided to to the measuring instead? Only because these were the steps I demonstrated? I very much doubt. May be there is no such data in a font and I was wrong all along?
As for the alignment... There is a request for that, https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/41485519
You commented for it, but never voted. Please do, every voice matters. It’d be great if you also voted for other request.An error occurred while saving the comment Regarding previous comment, in recent version Illustrator does remember which part of a text had which option chosen. That is fixed.

An error occurred while saving the comment The setting doesn’t stick to a text object. After the application is restarted (or even document is reopened), it falls back to Em Box for each one of them :( This is not convenient.
An error occurred while saving the comment Don’t forget to include these to Paragraph and Character Styles windows, please.
An error occurred while saving the comment The space is missing in the 'Default (Em Box)' option in the Font Height drop-down menu in Character panel
An error occurred while saving the comment Please add custom-assignable hotkeys for these commands (in 'Other Text' section, blank by default):
— Highlight font height using Default (Em Box)
— Highlight font height using Cap-Height
— Highlight font height using x-Height
— Highlight font height using ICF box
So pressing a hotkey would change the 'Font Height' option to the chosen one and then set the cursor to the 'Font Size' field.
This would allow to quickly set the height by the option needed from the keyboard, without changing it with the mouse.An error occurred while saving the comment There's a script that helps with setting both x-height and cap height.
http://illustrator.hilfdirselbst.ch/dokuwiki/en/skripte/javascript/uebersicht
Search for WR-capitalSize and then modify it to use any symbol you want.
Still it's much needed thing in AI from the box.An error occurred while saving the comment Sorry, I found your big comment in other request, you seem to already know about these scripts.
I totally agree about UPM and other dimensions all fonts already have, and AI's inability to give access to them.
I would also like to have these sizes to be visible as guides when using Smart guides for a live text.An error occurred while saving the comment Bobby, I can advise using scripts that set cap-height and x-height, based on measuring actual outlines of specified letters, by Wolfgang's Reszel.
Again :)
VotedAn error occurred while saving the comment I guess you have never these pictures:

You seem to not knowing much about things you do. 'Print size'? What kind of ignoramus are you? Fonts are much more complicated than your understanding of it.
But the problem is still there. I have scripts, based on Wolfgang's Reszel scripts, to set x-height and cap-height (and digit size, which is frequently different from a cap-height), based on realtime measurement of height of 'z' and 'Z' outlines (as common 'flat-surfaced' letters), but there would be so much profit if AI could allow to measure and set these, based on values included into font itself.AdminEgor Chistyakov

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

An error occurred while saving the comment A user should be able to use predefined colors for new artboards, that is correct. I know people who prefer black, who hates yellow, who always stick to default blues, who would like to have inverse edges, relative to the artwork beneath (!).
Having a blue art in a blue colored layer forces me to switch it way to much :( -

Denise, any chance to screenshot the look of it?
Do you send crash reports?
