    Russel, I get it now. That 'x' allows you to clear the filed, it's not prohibition sign. To type hotkey in the field, you should click it next to the 'x'. Then field will change color and get a frame that indicates it's listening.

    Russel, I don't get it. As I check, there IS a way to add shortcut to this command.
    Edit > Keyboard shortcuts: Menu commands, search 'Find' and there you have it, very first reslt. Is there a problem with setting it? I check and it's OK.

    You can assign your own hotkeys to different tools with Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts dialog.


    Also, you can pick Pencil, hit Enter )or double-click the tool’s button) to open the Pencil Tool Options dialog and check 'Alt key toggles to Smooth Tool' — this will allow to quickly temporarily access Smooth on the go while you are working with Pencil.


    Same applies to the Brush and Blob Brush stools by default.

    Just go to Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts and set a shortcut you like for the tool you want.

    Use 'Save a copy' command instead of 'Save as', it does exactly what you want.

    Check if you accidentally disabled bounding box (Ctrl+Shift+B)

    Is GPU preview on? It sometimes leaves artifacts like this one you show. Try to switch to CPU and check again.

    I see these sometimes too, but not as many. Is GPU preview mode on?

    Caps height size doesn't equal font size.

    I feel sorry for you, but this is not AI's fault, but how the fonts are described. Read about cap height, x-height and font size.

    Check your reference point (small nine squares grid next to X, Y values). If you want to rotate from center, set Center there, or use other Rotate field, for live shapes (in Transform palette).

    I don't get it. Why do you edit PMS swatch? Just grab if from the library.
    Secondly, it sounds like you have RGB document, but I don't think you haven't checked it.
    Then I think I just don't understand. Can't you explain a bit more?

    Check Overprint Fill option for your white art.

    As per the comment, you can adjust the Pathfinder precision in Pathfinder Options dialog, accessible from the Pathfinder’s panel flyout menu. The higher the value, the less accurate the result is going to be. Lesser values gives more precision, but it can lead to many 'residuals'. The default value is 0.028 pt, but you might try something like 0.01 pt and see if it works better.

    The thing is AI is TOO precise, while it gives impression it is NOT.
    It's about nature of bezier curves and limited precision.
    Check this video to learn more: https://youtu.be/iVdR55LsTaw
    Still, your request is valid, and I will upvote it, although there's a custom solution, as video shows, exists.

    It sounds like if you had your Alt or ` (~) key stuck. Can it be the case?

    It's not AI bug, it's nature of vector graphics. Precision is limited and curves with different points can't match 100%. It's just math.
    I'll tell you even more — circle you have in AI is not a perfect circle, but approximated model of a circle.
    Check it by yourself, create circle sized 100 and rotate it 30 degrees. Check dimensions.

    Check 'Window > Toolbars > Manage toolbars'.
    If you have nothing listed in opened window, than it's a bug. Otherwise delete extra toolbar.

    It doesn't seem blurry to me, but I guess you have to snap you art to pixel grid.
    Try 'Object > Make Pixel Perfect' command.

    Your 'ALFRA' has Overprint Fill set ON.
    Check Window > Attributes to set it off, then it will be fixed.
