    This is totally insane to see that a CORE function of a vector program doesn't work as expected.
    And next to that, you have deep development of totally useless functions like Intertwine (WTF ?!!?!).

    This is unfortunately not a new issue and Adobe is not listening... The issue should have hundred votes to be listened. Ask your communities to vote for it

    @Rebecca Migdal : ok I see. But these functionalities exist since several versions.
    The point of this thread is about selecting bezier handles without smart guides. Because some times, you don't want smart guides ON, as explained in the comments below

    @Rebecca Migdal : I have this version and don't see the improvements. What kind of improvements do you see ?

    Yes, why not increase the size, but I think this should stay an option because when you have hundreds of points, it can become difficult to grab the one you want.

    It is very strange because after having thought of all this, the cursor DOES change but only AFTER having clicked.... Which is useless because once clicked, who cares of the cursor ?

    As for smart guides, nobody use them when we draw by hand, because they always drive you in a place you don't want to go. Smart guides are not the solution. There is a tolerance and a cursor change on anchor points while smart guides are off.
    So why not on bezier handles ? The developers just forgot something in my opinion....

    Of course I tried, and this is in my first comment ;) ! Preferences doesn't allow tolerance on bezier handles. Only on anchor point. And this is confusing for users.
    You don't have the same bezier points as me because I changed that in preferences (that is on your screen capture).
    Your video is not at 100% which is confusing... It is not the good size of points. But it shows exactly what I'm pointing out and which, when you use very often, is annoying : the cursor doesn't change on bezier handles. This is where the nightmare is : you can only guess that Illustrator will grab it or not.

    Tolerance is a problem, but the style of the cursor too. Showing where the cursor will REAlLY grab the handle is a solution. I show this here : https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/37709080-show-a-different-cursor-on-bezier-point-and-add-t

    Hello, I posted another one here : https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/37709080-show-a-different-cursor-on-bezier-point-and-add-t because there are several problems on these bezier points...

    Hello,
    Grabbing bezier points is a nightmare. There is no tolerance (the one in preferences works only for anchor points) and there is no cursor change (although there is one on anchor points).
    I show you how this nightmare can be with a gif.
    And I show you how other softwares handle this problem by changing the cursor over a handle bezier point.

  2. Increase size of anchor points / handles

    I don't think that increasing the size of these anchor points is a solution. The solution is to see WHEN the software will REALLY grab the bezier handle by changing the cursor. Here are some gifs showing the problem and, in my opinion, the solution : https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/37709080-show-a-different-cursor-on-bezier-point-and-add-t
