Cursor at the end of document name field during "Save as"
When you "Save as," the cursor automatically appears at the end of the document name in the document name field - i.e. right after the file name extension. I never need to edit the file name extension, as I can do that in the dropdown menu, but I DO need to edit the name of the document. This, combined with the fact that there's now a lag of a few seconds before you can type in the document name field (submitted in separate comment), is making saving different versions of the same file veeeery annoying.

Libraries panel background
Can we stop changing the look of the Libraries panel.?!?!?
Can we have an option to adjust the transparency's of the links? so they view better with a darker background?1 vote -
Select all the value at once
Is it possible when clicking on a value such the shape, dimensions or text height etc. to select all the value so it can be replaced faster. Right now I have to delete the values number by number or select all with Ctrl-A then delete.
It would be appreciated if you have the option to select all when clicking on it.
It will save a lot of time.

Each item in the document to have its own persistent history
Linear document history seems very dated considering how much ram computers have these days, a hierarchical multi-dimensional object oriented history seems like a good idea. It would be amazing if I could choose to access the history of each item in the layers panel. it might work similar to file versioning solutions like GIT.
This history could be optionally saved into the file or cloud library so it can be accessed across sessions.

protect against accidental micro-adjustments during object selection
There are many times, most often while I am either double clicking to get into isolation mode, or selecting a layer as I am moving the mouse, where I accidentally move the object I clicked on a tiny bit, this becomes a problem on some pieces of artwork where math and/or high level accuracy are involved, and the adjustments are so minimal that they aren't noticed until its too late to undo.
It would be really cool if illustrator somehow detected or prevented against accidental unwanted adjustments. the idea occurred to me after seeing my phone attempt to block accidental…

Modifier key on apple pencil
It would be nice if on the apple pencil you could assign the Modifier circle to the Double tap button on the Apple pencil.

your default workspace is completely off point of the tools illustrators need close at hand
hey, folks, I've been using Illustrator continuously (and intensely) since 1987. Every time I make a transition to a new Mac and load a fresh copy of the Creative Suite, I'm frustrated by the task of rebuilding the essential palette of tools that need to be close at hand in Illy for max productivity — color, stroke, character, align + pathfinder, layers . . . your out-of-the-box defaults have it all wrong. Makes me wonder: do any of you people actually use this product for making stuff in the day to day? And good god, please stop with the scrubby…

Allow scroll to zoom in the navigation area
I have zoom to scroll turned on in the settings but we can't zoom to scroll in the navigation area just the main window. Can you please fix this? Allowing people to choose which way they scroll to zoom in or out would also be nice for accessibility.

Tool Bar exportable.
Serait il possible de pouvoir exporter ses Barre d'outils perso?
Comme les espaces de travail il serait pertinent de pouvoir sauvegarder ses paramétrages d'interface pour les récupérer d'une version à l'autre, ou d'une machine à l'autre (changement d'ordinateur, ou de plateforme).
Ce serait également pratique dans le cas de la perte des Barres d'outils de base quand Ai ne les retrouve plus.Merci

Inserir aviso ao aplicar pincéis em uma figura complexa
Hoje precisei criar pincéis a partir de aquarelas fotografadas e vetorizadas, no entanto, cada vez que precisava editar algum valor de um pincel nos testes e estava, acidentalmente com uma figura complexa selecionada (no caso o próprio vetor da aquarela) o Illustrator passava a tentar aplicar o pincel aos contornos da imagem e o resultado era, invariavelmente, a interrupção do funcionamento do programa, com longos minutos de espera.
Tudo isso poderia ser evitado se, considerando a complexidade da pergunta, um aviso fosse dado antes para o usuário.

Take Layer Style out from Opacity and add hover preview
Layer style dropdown is hidden under Opacity. This is not intuitive. Request moving it to the top level of the Properties UI.
Hovering over Layer Style name does not give a preview unlike in Photoshop.

All creative cloud document preview when applications are not running
Sorry for my Tarzan's english. On Mac Big Sur I'm suffering a lot because it's impossible to see documents preview with space bar when a file is selected. I need this feature with Illustrator and InDesign! Thank you. BTW: Art View doesn't works anymore.

All Adobe apps - New Document Page (UI)
Although Adobe aims to keep their user interface simple and efficient, the current <New Document Page> lacks of readability for its users. It's too dark and this makes it harder to read what symbols stand for. I think Adobe should;
1) Use larger icons on this interface.
2) Make the icons relatable for the name of the products (iPhone, etc.)
3) Add color(s) on this design.1 vote -

Suchen und finden option
Ich wünsche mir auf dem i Pad die Funktion suchen und finden. Nach Aussehen, Flächenfarbe, Kontur etc. die gibt es auch auf der Desktop Version und es ist sehr hilfreich um mehrere gleiche Formen farbig zu verändern.

requesting keyboard shortcut for 50% zoom
It would be great to have a keyboard shortcut to zoom to 50%. Often I want to see my artboard with some black/background around it instead of as full-screen or actual size.
I currently do this by Ctrl+0 to fit to screen and then Alt + scroll to zoom out a little. But it would be great to cut this down to a single step.
Ctrl + 5 is not currently defined in Illustrator default hotkeys, so it would not interfere with any existing commands.
