Lines are being moved after drawn

[John Charles B]

I'm kind of new to Illustrator, so it might be a simple thing, but I'm trying to draw some lines with the brush tool and after I'm finished, the lines move somewhere random and it is very annoying.

Already contacted support and they were not able to help.

macOS Sequoia 15.2

M1 Pro Macbook Pro 16 GB RAM

Adobe Illustrator 29.2.1

Here's a video of the issue:

Generally if you want precision, use the pen tool.

There are 2 things that come into play: the graphic tablet: is it adjusted correctly?

The brush tool settings: are they set to precise?

I see that you are zoomed out a lot. Maybe you are working in a Large Canvas document which has a bug that shows the brush strokes offset from the drawn path.

If you create a new document and select  a preset from Art & Illustration, does the same thing happen?
