Question

AI gets stuck on Navigator (zooms around screen)

Not sure if this is a bug or if I am just doing something wrong, I usually use PS so pretty new to AI.

 

But, pretty frequently, when I move around the artboard the cursor disappears and moving the mouse quickly moves around the canvas.

 

I've tried hitting 'escape', 'enter', left/right clicking, alt+ctrl+delete, minimizing AI and it stays stuck for a good five minutes before releasing. I know it is not my computer lagging, I'm currently using an Alienware Aurora Ryzen 7 and have no issues running 3d modeling software and much larger applications.

 

It's very frustrating and a time waster. Has anyone had luck with this?

***Update:

This time it has been stuck for a long while. It happens after clicking the side scroll bar. I tried reclicking/double clicking the scroll bar again and it doesn't work. I've tried with 2 different mice, and a tablet- still no luck. While it is doing this, I cannot click any buttons, save, or anything other than scroll up and down.

It was a new file, two layers- One with a placed image, already locked in layers. Second one blank.

The file was the standard 8.5 paper size document it recommends on startup, with no adjustments.
