Anchor Point SlidingOpen for Voting

Many times I find myself wanting to move an anchor point on a curved path to a different part of it without affecting my current curvature, but it’s just not possible so I have to redraw the curve every time, which could be a little frustrating at times.It would be very helpful to have an anchor point sliding function in Illustrator where the handle tangents of the sliding anchor point adjust based on how close or far it is from the anchor point before and after it, like in 3D softwares. I hope it makes sense.

App crash whenever trying to delete objectsUnder Review

The file was originally exported as PDF from CAD software, then opened and edited in Illustrator. I'm simplifying the objects (Expand + Pathfinder Combine) to prepare them for laser cutting.There are four identical compass indicator shapes, each consisting of a letter "U" (Utara/North) with an arrow beneath it. I successfully simplified one of them, but when I try to delete any of the remaining three, Illustrator crashes every time. The crash is consistent and reproducible. My intention after cleanup was to simply duplicate the simplified object across the layout. Steps to reproduce:Open a PDF exported from CAD software (edited in Illustrator) Simplify one of four identical "U" letter objects using Expand + Pathfinder Combine Attempt to select and delete any of the three remaining (unsimplified) objects App crashes immediatelyExpected behavior: Selected objects are deleted without issue.Actual behavior: Illustrator crashes every time on step 3, regardless of which of the three objects

Measurement Tool's scale is way offOpen for Voting

I’d previously reported a bug along these lines for the release version of Ai, but I’m not sure if that feeds through to the beta version too, so here goes:I have a document whose scale is 1:200. I have set the scale in the Dimension Tool Options to 1:200, and I can use the lovely Dimension Tool to happily add dimensions to anything and it gives an accurate dimension. Nice.I want to get the area of certain parts (it’s a garden layout and I want to be able to figure out how many paving slabs etc. to order). Sadly there’s not an ‘area’ option in the Dimension Tool, so I have to resort to the ancient Measure Tool. Why have these two tools not been merged?? Isn’t it time to add features to the Dimension Tool and kill of the Measure Tool? Anyway…If, using the (useless) Measure Tool, I try to get the length of something, it gives some figure based on nothing useful nor relevant. There is no way to set the scale of the Measure Tool, so we’ll politely ignore this. If, however, I want to get th

Trying “Sketch to Vector” with “communication error” and no output cost me 40 credits - support says, no refund possible.I wonder, how a Gen AI engine can be programmed to charge you BEFORE any output is created and published to the client - without the ability to refund in case of error. Apparently, we’re paying for button clicks in the first place, and - only, if we’re lucky - as an added bonus we get a Gen AI output as a result of those clicks.
