Hi @Santosh34055483mfpb,

 

I understand how frustrating it can be when slow performance disrupts your workflow, especially with something as essential as character styles. Let’s figure this out together.

 

Could you please share a bit more information? For example:

1. What version of Illustrator and operating system are you using, as Monika asked above?

2. Does this happen every time you open Character Style Options, or only in specific files or circumstances (e.g., working with a large file or specific fonts)?

3. Troubleshooting Tried: Have you reset preferences, checked for font conflicts, or tested on smaller documents to see if it improves?

 

If possible, a screen recording of the issue and a sample file would be incredibly helpful for us to pinpoint the cause and provide a solution.

 

Your feedback is valuable, and I’ll make sure to pass this along to our product team for further investigation if needed.

 

Looking forward to hearing back from you,

Anshul Saini

What exactly is happening step by step?

Does it happen in any document?

Does it happen with all fonts?

Does it happen in a new document?

Does it happen when you boot into Safe Mode?
