Illustrator Beta (29.1.54) Bugs - Arrowhead selections all look the same + Effects panel is blank

Been having all sorts of issues with Beta - arrowhead selection on the stroke options is all duplicated so I can't tell which I'm selecting until I click it.

 

Effects panel just shows a blank; impossible to tell what the effect looks like until I apply it. What's up with this?! Any solutions Adobe? It's making my workstream extremely slow.

Both work fine for me in AI 29.1.54 on Wndows 11.

Have you tried resetting preferences or reinstalling?

As a general rule however, if you're doing time-critical work, don't use the Beta version.

Having the same issue and it's driving me nuts. Resetting the settings didn't help. Anyone?!

Uninstall, run the Adobe Cleaner tool and reinstall. https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html 

 

Edit: Just saw that this is about the beta app. Things like this can happen in a beta.

Hello @JUSTIN34202384umwv,

Sorry to hear about the trouble you're having with the Arrowheads. I hope Monika's suggestions helped resolve the problem. If not, kindly confirm the OS/Illustrator version, and check if the actual arrowhead after selecting from the dropdown is also the same.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
