When using keyboard shortcuts to switch between tools in adobe illustrator (e.g., pressing "t" to switch from the marquee tool to the type tool), the cursor does not update to reflect the new tool state. Instead, it remains as the previous tool's cursor (e.g., the marquee cursor), causing confusion and workflow disruption.
Steps to reproduce:
Open adobe illustrator on a Mac running Sequoia.Select the marquee tool.
Press the "t" key to switch to the type tool using the keyboard shortcut.
Observe that the cursor does not change to indicate the type tool is active.
Expected result:
The cursor should update immediately to reflect the active tool selected via keyboard shortcuts.Actual result:
The cursor remains as the previous tool's cursor, not indicating the change.Jesse Mellon

Please upgrade to latest Illustrtor version 23.0. We did fix something similar. However we do recommend and support Illustrator only on primary monitors

Hi Ashutosh — I was actually using the newest version (23.0). But! I spent a bit of time looking around online and finally found a solution: Toggling on (and then off) "Application Frame" somehow reset things so dialogs now appear only on my primary display. I'll take it!
Egor, the cursor changes only after I use whichever tool I've switched to (so, if I have the selection tool invoked, and then I hit "a" on my keyboard (to invoke the direct selection tool), the cursor remains as a black cursor (even though the direct selection tool is active). Once I click something, the cursor changes to reflect the direct selection tool. And then if I hit "t" (to select the type tool), the direct selection cursor remains active until I click or drag (to create text), after which the type cursor appears. The cursor being displayed is always one step behind.
