Oh, all the new features are great! How about a new feature that applies the colour wet, so I have to wait for it to dry? I just feel too efficient with this programme right now. Prompting patterns? What a waste of time! I hope my company switches to Figma soon.

Beta Illustrator is damaged - see message when I try to open Beta or open a file I created using Beta

I'm Running a Mac studio with latest sequoia and have plenty of ram. Since updating to latest version of illustrator,  (29.7) I've had continual ball spinning, freezing, crashing, glitching, the file refuses to close because it won't save, you name it. I've had to re-install, uninstall several times until I finally gave up and reinstalled the previous version. Now everything works again just fine. Serious issues with this latest release like I've never experienced before. Please fix this!

Oh awesome! I'm so glad y'all found another new way of making it more hostile for designers by adding these awful AI features that take away from our careers and render our entire field of work essentially useless. Thank you, Adobe. I hope your shareholders scratch your chin this quarter.

Buggy! When I select two text boxes, center them, then group them, the arrow keys on my keyboard will not work!  I cannot move grouped text boxes left or right using my Apple keyboard.   Only when I ungroup them, I can move them left or right via they keyboard arrows.  Can you please fix this bug? Driving me bonkers and slowing down my work flow. 

Illustrator is constantly crashing for myself and my entire team. We are all on Windows machines and having this issue - it is severely impacting our work as we are mostly on Illustrator for our tools. Please help!

I was really excited to see the enhancement for smarter gradient, but what I was hoping for was a smart gradient with image trace. The banding of color when trying to vectorize an image trace is PAINFUL, to put it lightly. Can we add this use case to the smoother "Enhanced Gradient". Fingers crossed. 

Hard to find mention of this anywhere, but at some point did Illustrator add an auto-relinking feature when opening files and then break it?

Working on files with linked graphics hosted in a mounted cloud storage. on my computer (29.5.1) the files are linked via /Users/myName/cloudStorage/Blah. I can save that and my coworker can open the file and on their illustrator (29.1) and it will auto swap myName for their's and relink the files accordingly. the same does not happen when they save a file and send it to me. all the links remain broken.

Why are we seeing this, it's distracting and annoying, can you just switch off ai somewhere?

I have been trying to create an image in illustrator for a kids coloring book.  Example of My prompt says boy throwing  snowball, outline drawing for kids coloring book, no shadow.  I choose black and white but each time the image comes up with color so I go to image trace and it does double outlines no mater what I set the preferences causing me just as much work editing it as when I draw it myself.
