Does it happen to you also?An error occurred while saving the comment Eduardo, a similar report has been filed just recently, Artboards change their orientation when "crtl + f" command: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/48123233
Can you try and reproduce it? Does it feel like the same problem? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Oh yes, I know exactly what you mean, and am well aware of this workaround :(
I can’t say it was ever an option... I checked a couple of older versions, to be sure, and nope — selecting all the points makes the whole path selected, and it means there is no way to set a key point. I’d love to have a better way!Please also take a look at this related request, Highlight an anchor point used as a key object :http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/43801218
One comment there is about the same exact problem you (and many of us) are having.An error occurred while saving the comment Christopher, you mean Align panel, not the Align tool? (there is no such a tool in Ai)
It’s still possible to align points to each other using it, just checked. The last selected point becomes a key point (unless you select all of the points of the path, which is treated as selecting the whole path).
The points is never highlighted, and there is a request to get it improved, 'Highlight an anchor point used as a key object': http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/43801218Or do you mean something else? Can you share an example of the task you are trying to accomplish? Perhaps I can guide you through it.

An error occurred while saving the comment Does it work in latest versions?
Do you mean toggling 'white' / 'matching brightness' option, or just an ability to assign any color to canvas (missing currently, hence this request: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/45794842)? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Miika, I got a confirmation about Illustrator’s Spellcheck not working with Finnish at all :(
This technically makes it a user request rather than a bug report — although I agree on it being just nonsense, since I was never able to find a list of supported languages and get an in-app notification on it. I believe many otter languages are not supported either...
Upvoted it. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Natasha, can you please share the actual file? Just with these objects included.
I am looking at the screenshot and several things throw me off: nothing is visibly selected (and the command will work only if you have two or more objects selected), and the overflow text marker is visible (the red plus in a square).
Finally, you should not have expanded the path between letters at all, it should stay a simple path... Have to look at this. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Illustrator is the only editor that still draws the bounding box not by the dimensions of the actual glyphs, but by their em boxes.
CorelDraw, Affinity Designer, Xara, Inkscape, Photoshop... all draw the bounding box tightly hugged (InDesign drops out a bit because it doesn't have out-of-frame text).
Illustrator tried 4 years ago to make modes for text alignment, as stated below, but it came out non-obvious and hardly convenient. A partial solution. There are hacks, but they are, well, stupid.
We need to get it addressed.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment You mean this?
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/xw40w426142evjs/text_bbox.gif
Well, AI does it right then. See, letters have descenders:
https://www.designersinsights.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Anatomy-of-Typography.png
AI selects text based box around all elements of the text.
Still, it doesn't mean that it can't be made that it will select text only when you click in actual glyphs, but I expect it would take more power to calculate. This also means that you will have gaps in text where you can click and not select anything, if gap is larger than selection tolerance.
Well, you can ask for omitting ascenders and descenders for lower-case (and remember which glyph is uppercase too), but I afraid it will still confuse people.
I'll vote for this, but it will make a lot of tests and precautions to make it right. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Nice catch! Indeed, when text objects are in a group, the glyph bounds alignment options no longer apply... I thing Ai should be a bit smarter with these.
Thanks for the report! -

An error occurred while saving the comment María, it seems like you accidentally disabled Bounding Box, most probably by hitting Ctrl + Shift + B.
You can press this hotkey again to enable it back or do this form the menu — View > Show Bounding Box.
Please comment back if this solves the problem. -

An error occurred while saving the comment I confirm that.
While the text object looks fin in Preview mode, observing in it Outline really looks weird — the area is actually smaller than the text and it jumps when moved, like the GIF attached shows.There is an overflow marker displayed, but clicking it won’t offer to create a threaded type area, like it should do, just nothing happens.
If I carefully remove any number of visible character in the end — the problem stays until overflow is still detected.
If I remove all overflown characters at the end (step by step or using Ctrl + Shift + End to reach the end of it) — the issue vanishes.An error occurred while saving the comment Woah.
Does not happen for me!
Does it stays like this after you save it and reopen the file? Can you please share this file here? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Martin, what about the actual file generated — is it OK? Rendered correctly?
Does you artwork by any chance have opacity masks or linked/placed images?
Does it happen for this file only or with others or brand new files? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Seems strange to me as well, I meant no sarcasm.
As for the script — well, yes, it just put lines. Scripts are limited with what they can do. If something just is not allowed by Ai (and customized rules are these), scripts won’t be able to introduce a new parameter for a live text. It’s up to Adobe’s engineers to code it... That’s why a script is only a workaround, and your request is very valid.An error occurred while saving the comment I know a paid script exists that allows add lines below and under the text, so this is a workaround you can use at the moment: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWAtAoycvGg
The result won’t by dynamic, but it’s easy enough to reapply these when needed.An error occurred while saving the comment Amazingly you are a first person in several years who asked for it here. Sure Ai needs a way to customize it. Voted. If you can share the link to this request in these forums posts you refer to, perhaps this would gain enough weight to get noticed by the team.

An error occurred while saving the comment I see what you mean now, thanks for the clarification!
Am I right thinking you are more about presenting a graph with artistic means, rather than controlling a generation with percentage values for things to be used in it? Since the workflow you describe fits both :)
Interesting. Let’s see if it gets more attention.An error occurred while saving the comment Illustrator has a dedicated set of Graph tools (available in the Advanced toolbar you can access with 'Window > Toolbars > Advanced' command).
These are not the most modern tools, and hardly refactored since late 90-s, but these are somewhat useful for the task you have.
Not sure if you are aware of these... If you are — please comment back and elaborate on the changes you want to have.And then there is a larger user request to modernize the toolset you can upvote here: illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/31150012-improve-graph-chart-tool

An error occurred while saving the comment Lottie, Ai allows to disable the auto bullets.
Go to Preferences > Type, and uncheck the 'Automatic Bulleted and Numbered lists while typing'
Does it work for you?
Please be warned though, that Ai will resets the option each fresh installation, so make sure it get disabled if you do reinstall.

Aaron, this seems new with the recent version...
Take a look at this report — does it feel similar?
