The team tried to fix this in Beta 30.1.0.109. The latest one is 30.2.0.12.
If you can — please try to use Beta and see if no centers will be enabled or disabled when reopening a file. The fix won’t remove those that are already in a document, so we need to to toggle them manually in the Attributes panel.

An error occurred while saving the comment I wouldn’t call it a 'tool' panel, since, it would contain no tools, but commands...
So do you men to just get an unfolded duplicate of the File menu as a panel, or a fully customizable panel with command as buttons? Are you aware of the Button Mode for Actions panel? I think it just does what you need.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Mark, yeah, trashing user settings is another problem...
Edit > My Settings > Export / Import Settings, which was added at some point to mitigate it, also does not work properly for some...Even if the Ai team comes up with method to add custom commands as buttons in custom panels (to be able to have more than one Actions panel) — these would have to be backed up also.
I learnt to backup all settings manually.
Whenever I change actions, I save them via the panel’s flyout menu in a dedicated folder in my own cloud folder. If (when) these get dropped, I load it back.
Since all the different presets are located in different places (hotkeys, actions, tool panels, workspaces, etc.), some users create shortcuts to various folders (which also change, because major versions change!), some build .bat files.Workarounds... but working in stock Ai is a masochistic violence. It makes more harm than making backups for settings. Don’t hurt yourself! :)
An error occurred while saving the comment Mark, as for today Illustrator offers several ways to have these accessed faster:
1. Assign a hotkey to each of these commands. Open Keyboard Shortcuts, locate these and assign something Ai would allow to use (there are restrictions).
2. If you want specifically buttons, and not hotkeys, you can make actions instead. Fire up Actions panel, create a new action, record a command, stop recording, and once you are done, switch the panel into a button mode via its flyout menu. There, you have buttons — not exactly in the toolbar, but you can put the panel wherever you want.
Does these work for you? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Recently Ai added the Snapping Quick Access Panel, placed in the top right corner of the Control panel.
It partially solves the problem, but:
1. It requires having Control enabled, and at some point Ai decided to disable it by default in favor of Properties panel
2. It has only snapping options and not other toggles
3. It still requires a click to open, and there is no way to make it into a panelAdminEgor Chistyakov

From to to bottom the fidelity rises... and the step 2 feels VERY smooth, almost like the last one.An error occurred while saving the comment Indeed, the almost-accurate setting (2) feels like too smooth compared to the middle one (3). All others I try feels adequate...

An error occurred while saving the comment UserVoice has temporary (I hope) problems with attaching .ai files :(
It was reported here — https://feedback.uservoice.com/forums/1-general-feedback/suggestions/50728085-uv-forbids-to-attach-ai-illustrator-files — but upvoting it would require setting up a new account, so I can’t ask you to do it, really.In the mean time, use the email I mentioned below — sharewithai@adobe.com (again, with this report’s link mentioned, http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50201670)
An error occurred while saving the comment Screenshots won’t be enough, sadly... Please package the original file (with fonts included, if possible) and send it over to sharewithai@adobe.com, so the team can investigate what goes wrong with it: objects, fonts, styles, etc. Mention the link to this report for faster tracking also — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50201670

An error occurred while saving the comment The team 'fixed' the behavior that allowed us to 'overprint' the grid when Overprint preview mode was enabled.
Now the grid won’t be displayed above opaque objects when Preferences > Guides & Grid > Grids in Back is enabled.
The image shared is the correct and expected behavior — and this is what team thinks.However.
I hate it personally. I’ve been using the Overprint hack to display subtle grids above everything since pre CS era.
Disabling Grids in Back to display grids above artwork is horrendously loud — lines are too prominent!Here’s a report about it: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/50738213
An error occurred while saving the comment It looks like CADguides panel from the CADtools plugin offers a way to customize grid colors, without any relaunch. No way to make stroke weights and opacity though, but I suppose API just doesn’t allow this for plugins.

An error occurred while saving the comment When I test it, the harmony colors are always linked (even if I pressed the 'Unlink harmony color' button in the previous Recolor session). Ai seems to always link these when the dialog is launched... But Steve says these are UNlinked for them, if I understand it correctly...
And you, Jane, want to limit the selected colors to a particular swatch library by default, right?
Both requests are about either making all settings in the dialog sticky, or with additional presets (and since many choices in the windows are custom, these would only be partial)...
I persoanlly want to make the Color Reduction Options sticky. At the moment, White and Black are always preserved... and when I change it, the change sticks between Recolor sessions, across documents even... but not between Ai launches!

An error occurred while saving the comment So it’s not crashing, but something else then... How does it look? Do they appear and vanish? or just never show up? Can you record a video, please?
What windows are affected, but New Document? 'Every in-app' is rather non-descriptive...
You say 'saving settings' — is it one containing the settings for the chosen file format, like JPEG Options?If you still have a link to this old post by another Brazilian user —can you share it?
An error occurred while saving the comment Clara, when it does — do you get a crash reported dialog? Do you send the reports to Adobe? If you do — do you use the same email the you use here at UserVoice?
When did it start happening? Was it working better with a previous version? -

An error occurred while saving the comment I found several workarounds, and the best one is to use dummies (like no-stroke-no-fill circles) along with actual objects.
It definitely has flaws: it becomes harder to edit the guiding path, the steps and quantized, it looks rather noisy, aiming the actual objects is hard.Another method would be using several copies stacked... When only one object is placed on a path, Ai allows to position it freely. The downside is editing all copies of the guiding path simultaneously. In the GIF I use Glue Mode of the PathScribe plugin tool, but without it’d be rather painful.
Finally, Transform effect can be used to reposition objects. Looks tangible with the Stylism plugin, but hardly effective without it.
An error occurred while saving the comment Two more related requests:
1. Allow to Move All objects and adjust their Spacing from both ends in Objects on Path — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48987941
2. Add an option to measure gaps between objects in Objects on Path by their bounds, not between centers — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48987905An error occurred while saving the comment Agree!
For me it jumps with 1 pt step, not even a half a point.
And actually it jumps for me in with 0.35 mm step, because the team believes everybody in the world uses fraction of an inch, and PostScript’s points, being the foundation of Ai, should also be a it’s rigid coffin. I do not care about points, and don’t want to see them anywhere.
I suggested having a slow drag mode, so we can hold Cmd/Ctrl while dragging the slider, to make it go with 10 times smaller increment. Ideally, the value should be customizable (if not from within the UI, bowels of Prefs file will do).
And surely we just need a filed somewhere as well to edit the value directly, or even a way to double-clik the slider handle to enter it right there on canvas.

This and asking for your screen size again is the only thing I can be helpful with here...
At least know you are not alone with this problem and the the team knows about it as well.An error occurred while saving the comment Margot, recently the team added the long-awaited artboard background color options (requested here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31386253)
So now each artboard has 2 more controls: a dropdown menu and a color chip.
These now take space in the Control panel, and it seems like these push out the Width and Height controls out of the bounds!
What width does your screen have? -
2 votes
I happens when the width of the screen is not wide enough to fit all the elements the Control panel can display. Some blocks, especially from the Transform section, get omitted.
To workaround this without purchasing a larger display, one can open the Control panel's flyout menu, untick some options, like Align, and check if the section needed returns. If yes — then please vote here for a feature that would allow us to change the order of blocks in Control: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/40231882-allow-us-to-chose-order-of-controls-in-control-pan

Stéphanie, the team made some fixes to solve this problem in Beta 30.1.0.109. The latest one is 30.2.0.12.
It’s not yet clear if it was truly solved, so it needs some testing. I do remember you weren’t able to use Beta (although I forgot the reason).
