I'm trying to cut a circle shape with a rectangle overlay and it's changing the shape of the crop somehow. This is similar to the pixel grid issues except I have the align to pixel grid off. So IDK what's going on. Here's what happening:
1. I Add A Circle (with the same circle shape behind it in black to show the distortion) Note: You can't see the black circle behind it because it's the exact same size.
3. I Select The Minus Front From Pathfinder
4. I Zoom In And Proceed To Cry
Note: You can now see the edge of the shape is no longer aligned with the same circular shape. It's changing the shape. You can't notice this unless you zoom in.
This issue is happening on multiple instances of illustrator with new files with align to pixel grid off. I've toggled the snapping features. I've checked the file preferences for whether I was running a print vs web. It's a print file.
