This is what is going on for me when I do it I don't know if there is some weird preference that could cause this to happen or something. I have tried resetting preferences.

It seems like the latest Beta build 29.9.0.36 has it fixed. Please update and check if it works as it should at your side.

I've noticed this to since the last update. It's some sort of rendering glitch. The temporary fix until Adobe actually fixes it is to zoom out and in.

I'm seeing this problem occur in the transform effect and when using the reflect option as well.

I did some testing and found that my illustrator has a weird problem on start up and couple other times while running it (I think maybe when loading a large library with 2000+ swatches not sure though). Basically, my guides are always set to locked (ctrl+alt+;) but sometimes on loading the icon in the properties panel is not pressed in or whatever the term is. I think my illustrator gets into a state where the guides are neither locked or unlocked causing this issue. I found this morning that pressing that button a couple times fixes my issue.

It’s dangerous to call things Smart... When they behave dumb, the name sound like an insult. Sadly, this is the case.
Please provide more specific cases, with video proofs, ask you colleagues to share and vote, to move this further. This is the way to force changes to things that are broken — be vocal and persistent. Thank you all and let’s hope we get heard.

Unfortunately, as this is a work computer, I'm stuck with the tools that come with windows, so my captures are not going to be that great. Here is a test file with a before and after of the paths.
Basically, I have the bottom path selected by moving a point around or something, then I clicked on the bottom corner anchor point of the top path trying to select it to edit it. Illustrator ends up connecting the two paths for some reason which might be intended but feels very unintuitive.Brendan Cummings shared this idea ·

Pathfinder section in Properties appears only when more than one object is fully selected. If you need to see Pathfinder in all cases, including having only one point selected, like in this case, — use the dedicated Pathfinder panel instead.
Illustrator doesn’t offer a way to customize Properties or lock specific sections. If this is something you need — please upvote this request.

It says you have only an anchor point selected.

It would be nice to have a tool or other way to move objects relative to one another. I think the best example of what I'm suggesting is what happens when you have two anchor points selected and use the scale tool. The anchor points move towards or away from another. Unfortunately, you can't do this with the objects as it would scale object dimensions as well, causing them to stretch.
This would be very helpful for when I have objects in line with one another and need to move them farther apart or closer together at an angle that is not divisible by 45degrees.

it looks your gif is doing the same thing as mine. You can tell because when you close the 2nd path the last point is a white square and not filled and there is a line still connecting your cursor to the path. i think that corner is two different anchors and if you had clicked again it would have made another point connected to that path. The only reason I've noticed this is because I've started new paths with the pen tool without clicking off of a shape first.
I'm on 29.7.1, but I believe I've noticed this problem on the past two updates. I don't know how far back it goes. I've tried installing the pre-release, but it just tells me my build is expired and closes, so I don't want to deal with that right now
