An error occurred while saving the comment 'Can not change' — does it mean the dropdown list is disabled and you can’t click it?
Or you are able to choose the 'English: USA' option, but it gets reverted back as soon as you choose it?
Or it is chosen, but gets reverted back when you make a change to a text?
Or something else entirely?Does it happen in this document only?
What about previously created files?
What about a completely new file, based on one of the standart Illustrator’s document profiles, like Print?Have you tried to reset Preferences? (here is a good instruction how to do that — https://astutegraphics.com/support/tutorials-and-troubleshooting/resetting-illustrator-preferences)

https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests/suggestions/44104935-absolute-mode-that-always-sets-a-fill-a-single-cli
It is about a CorelDraw-like approach with a left-click setting the fill and right-click setting the stroke:Your solution feels clumsy, to be honest, it requires precise clicking, muddies swathes’ colors, creates annoying moiré. But I dig the cause!

An error occurred while saving the comment Have you tried to reset preferences? (here is a nice instruction on this: https://astutegraphics.com/support/tutorials-and-troubleshooting/resetting-illustrator-preferences)
If it does not work — can you try to reinstall it?When did it start to happen?
Did you install any plugins recently?
Do any other dialog get opened, except for Save? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Curtis, can you please check the Align panel’s menu and see if you have any of two options for Align to Glyph Bounds checked. Try to toggle them, compare results and comment back.
It'd be nice to have a test file of yours also. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Yes, not I can see what’s the problem, thanks for the clarifications once more.
Indeed, Arc Upper / Lower skew all vertical lines of the text! If you show guides in the original document, it becomes clear.That's why I personally use this method instead — please check the file attached. The text has the Bulge effect applied to it, which does not skew vertical lines. But since Bulge pushes out both sides, I trick it with adding an auxiliary copy of the text with Transform effect and excluding it— check the Appearance panel to see the stack.
There are several problem with this solution.
First, it’s crazy. You have to know how Appearance work to conjure it up... Once saved as a graphic style though, it’s pretty easy to handle.
Second one, all vertical lines are shifted. The larger is bulge value, the more stretched the middle becomes, so it's just changes one problem with another.
Third problem — it’s overshoots of the C. It goes below the baseline and above the cap height line, to compensate the curved glyph visually, but all warps can’t ignore it by design. That's why the top line is not horizontal. To work around that you can use a no-fill-no-stroke container, which are larger than the text. I put one on baseline, make it twice as tall as the text, then enlarge it a bit more, group all together and then bulge — no Transform magic is required then.
Anyway, yeah, warp effect and warp envelopes need some attention. Voted!

An error occurred while saving the comment Yeah, this dialog is a shame.
Perhaps you might want to try Stylism by Astute Graphics, which gives this effect nice on-canvas controls. Sure, you won’t be able to make smooth points, like you show in the mockup, but worth trying.
For anything more complex than a four straight point we have Envelope Distort and free MeshTormentor plugin to make custom meshes with an ease.

An error occurred while saving the comment Meanwhile there is a Stylism plugin form AstuteGraphics that gives so much to this effect! Including all types of snap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1PcomIcl3Q

An error occurred while saving the comment You can, but no with a button but with the panel’s flyout menu (three lines in the top right corner).
I agree that these should be moved in the panel itself.
Also notice that they do exist in the Properties panel in the Transform block. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Illustrator provides these already in its Swatch Libraries. To view these, do the following:
1. Open Swatches panel
2. Click the button in the lower-bottom corner (with books, 'Swatch Libraries menu')
3. Navigate to Gradients
4. Choose one, like 'Spectrums', top open a new palette — this one contains rainbows.You can navigate between adjacent libraries using triangular arrows buttons at the bottom of this panel.
There are plenty of predefined presets for you to tinker with. Don't forget you can make your own, save them for future use, and search the web for custom presets — these are usually distributed as .ai files.Please comment back if it works for you.

An error occurred while saving the comment There are several ways we can achieve this now in Illustrator:
1. Using custom scripts, like Join Reasonably
2. Using VectorFirstAid plugin from AstuteGraphicsSure it does not mean it should not be in Illustrator by default, on the contrary!

Can you share a simple test file with art objects that behave that drastically different?
You can share them here if you are allowed to, or send privately over sharewithai@adobe.com
This is not normal behaviour, so it’s either machine or document specific problem. Please provide your full OS specs, including GPU and memory details.
