illustrator spacebar zoom hand tool issues
25 years using adobe. For the past 3 years, there's been an issue with the key commands for either the hand tool or the zoom-in and out when using the key commands. It either will not switch from + to - when zooming or the hand fails to work after a while when I go to use the space bar. The solution is to click another tool and then try again or shut down Illustrator. I see you suggest this for everything, "shut down and restart" the program, and want to make one thing clear in case you're not aware, I'm in the middle of WORKING!!!! So no, I don't want to make sure everything is saved and shut down all the other files I have open at once and shut it all down because you failed to do your part in fixing the software everyone pays to use in the first place. This happens at least 2 or 3 times I use Illustrator.
Also, this is a very fundimental tool used all the time by everyone so I would think it would be a top priority for Adobe but obviously after 3 years it's not which is just pathetic. The second issue is that you guys continue to add features to a broken system. Fix the issues you currently have so people can use what they paid for successfully. That's not rocket science, it's common sense yet you fail to succeed in doing this. I also just caught myself thinking my words are going to matter when I know they do not so I'll stop here.
Do better Adobe! Or, rest assured you will be replaced.
