Latest version of Illustrator (Mac)
I am a long time user of Illustrator but i have never had this issue before.
When i open a file I can see the layers window, etc but not the actual file.
There is no window or tab for the file, just the recent files window. I can actually double click the screen and i get an isolated view but can't see anything change but the layers window.If i close Illustrator and reopen the file it shows up fine.
Not a huge issue at all but just wanted to see if someone else had this problem and whether it was related to the recent files window or something else.
Since updating to 22.1 last week i have all kinds of graphics card and/or display issues. The beta 22.0.2 worked great and i should have stuck with it.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
I have something similar, when I open AI first time, and click on a recent document to open – sometimes I don't see any tabs or the actual documents. I have to go to 'Window', 'Arrange' and chnage the mode to 'Flaot in windows' to see the documents. Then I have to 'Consilidate all in windows' to get back to a tabbed arrangement. Never had it before.

Even when I 'arrange' > 'float in window' this does not solve the problem as everyone has already stated.
I then choose 'consolidate all windows' and this brings me right back to the original problem, all my windows disappear again. Has this happened to anyone else?

Just update to 2020 yesterday and still see the problem.
Float in Window partly work because it shows the working area but when try to dock it back to the UI, it disappeared again! Adobe, are you sure you are fixing this? it seems like your latest version just makes it worse.

Well, it's 2022 and this issue persists (:
Not a big deal, but kind of annoying when it happens two or three times on a single day.
