1. Allow "Welcome to Illustrator" presets to be customized to actual user presets

   When the landing or launch page for Illustrator CC2021 opens, there is a box of presets under the line "Welcome to Illustrator.

   This system will not allow a drop or upload of either an AI nor JPG screenshot...the default presets are Postcard, Letter, Common, iPhone X, HDTV 1080p and "More Presets."

   In my case, I never use any one of those presets, so I have to click "Create New" or "More Presets," which are the same outcomes, then click my way through the various options to get to "Web Large."

   It would be nice if (a) the user could enhance experience (UX) by loading that bar with personally-used create new presets, or (b) if Illustrator would position the last used create new preset from Create New on the bar, pushing off one of the unused presets and replacing it with the actually used preset.

2. Option to place the origin of the artboard at the center of the artboard

   I would like the option to place the origin of the artboard at the center of the artboard, so that objects can be placed at the center just by setting the position to zero please. This would also make it a lot easier to mirror object to other sides just by making their position negative or positive.

   Thanks in advance,
   Tim

3. Allow font size, leading to be blank in paragraph & character styles (as in InDesign).

   In InDesign, you can leave the font size of a paragraph or character style blank, allowing you to apply a style while preserving the font size that's already set (critical for different sized documents). In Illustrator, while you can create a style with a blank size, it automatically reverts to 12pt.

5. Version History - a couple feature requests

   I sorta like the new version history option. It's at least kinda a step towards the history panel so many people want. There are a couple of features that I think would improve it. (If these already exist and I'm missing them can you teach me where they are?)

   My first request is adding an option to save at anytime you choose. This only saves every 5 minutes. Say I make a bunch of changes in only 3 minutes. I'd then have to wait 2 minutes for it to create a save point before I could choose to revert to a previous version. I have noticed that if you choose to revert before it's saved your most recent change it will still create a current timestamp however it takes even longer to revert back to it. For example (sorry this will probably be confusing): Say I have two previous versions. One at 7:00 PM and another at 7:05 PM. I decide to do a few quick color changes and move some things around. It's now 7:08 PM. I can't go back and compare the 7:05 PM version or choose to save my current state so I can immediatly return to it. I can choose to go back to the 7:00 PM version. That's not helpful if I made changes between that and the timestamp I really want to return to. If I revert to the 7:00 PM time my 7:08 PM version is technically saved. At least a timestamp is added for it. However I've noticed it then takes 10 minutes before I return to it. It would make things a little smoother.

   My other request would be a quicker way to save or export a version as a separate file. Currently you can just revert to a version and then choose to save as and create a new file. It's not really that hard or slow but still. It would be nice to have the option right there on the panel. It could be added to the "•••" next to the timestamp. Like this:

   6:00 PM ••• Name this version
   Revert to this version
   ⇨ Save this version ⇦

7. More vector brushes

   Have more brushes! (like a tapered brush), allow to add, export, and make custom brushes.
   Easily delete overlapping lines like in CSP.
   Include patterns like half tones for comics we can drag and drop inside shapes.
   Allow gradients and patterns to be applied to the stroke.
   We can choose which part of the stroke to change the width instead of all of it.
   Have an option to do an even width change or freehand.
   Be able to fill color within the visible strokes/lines instead of shapes.

8. Allow repeat patterns to be added to swatches

   In the desktop version of AI you were able to create patterns and then add them to the swatches panel to access in any other file. This would be a good feature for the app.

11. Linking dxf/dwg

    This might be very wishfull thinking...

    I am an architect, and use CAD to make plan drawings, and illustrator to make them look good (adjusting lineweight, stroke, color and so on). But if i make an updated drawing in CAD, i have to do everything all over again in Illustrator. It would be awsome if illustrator was able to give a specific layer a specific lineweight/stroke/color etc... and was able to update this on its own!

12. Allow pattern tile size more than 1.41 meters

    Make pattern tiles bigger in size. Now it is limited to about 1.41 meters. Nowadays we can print on textile directly. So the limitation in making a pattern is not bound to physical limitations we've had for years. When printing on fabric that is 1.50 meters I want to be able to make a pattern that has that same width.
    Since you already increased the maximum artboard size, why not increase the pattern tile size as well?

13. Ellipse Tool Properties/Dialogue

    Ellipse Tool, if make an ellipse then you have a little squire pointing to make ellipse’s End Angle and Pie Angle, but you do not have these feature available in its properties/Dialogue/Menu when you just select Ellipse Tool and you clip on the canvas or on Art Board you have no control features for that and you also do have the same features in Control Bar and Useless Properties Panel. I hope in the future version there must be added a dialogue for proper setting and measurements like retangle tool.

15. Align to object on ANOTHER artboard! yeah yeah!

    Aligning to an object on another arboard would be really great + needed, for AI users.

    In addition to functions like, align to key object and select/edit similar shapes,
    It would be so so great to be abled to align an object, to another object, on another artboard!

    In short:
    Aligning objects to the position of other objects on other artboards.
    Without having to move objects to the same artboard 1st, or copy their x/y values, just for alignment.

    Some thoughts/notes:

    Implementation,
    With artboard rules activated, of course. This seems to be a similar function to the ones that exist: Like the align to key object option and the align to artboard option. I can Imagine it would take relatively little coding to implement this. Though, what to gain from this feature would be very much worth it.

    Scenario, where this is needed,
    When working with multiple artboards, often I need to cut and past objects to align them to another artboard, and back. Just to align them to of an object over there. Many ways to rome of course. But all vary from being time consuming task that need to be repeated to often, to actually causing faults in documents.
    Other ways, for example:
    Cutting and pasting the object that needs to be aligned, to the artboard containing the object that needs alignment / vice versa.
    Cutting and pasting X and Y values.
    Using the select/edit similar object (if similar).

    In the end, all available options are time consuming actions that can even cause faults.
    Examples of faults: values ending up within positions in the artwork, that might be missed and actually end up in your client corrections feedback. Even if you are super precise, within large documents, a more reliable option would be welcome for this task. Other examples, cutting and pasting, taking extra actions/time to lock and unlock other layers, or having object ending up in the wrong layers, causing ..more actions.

    Efficiency, user experience, workflow/time,
    All of the mentioned examples of faults that can happen, can off course (if you know your basics well) be prevented. But I think anybody who does work wit AI often, would agree this task could work much more intuitive. There are so many details to it, that make this simple task, you execute so often, very unpractical, and to comprehensive.

    Select/edit similar shapes, is often not the option that works out:
    - What if (this is many times), the object needing to be aligned is not similar and/or not on the same artboard.
    - Or even when similar: often the key object that is positioned right, was moved already (the creation process is not entirely planned ahead). In that case new problems arise, that could all be resolved simply. A great solution would be to to select one of those, align it to an object on another artboard.
    Examples:
    Other objects on other artboards, that are similar, still need to be aligned to that one.
    - Select/edit similar objects does not work in combination with selecting an object that you want to align them to.
    - If they are all in scattered positions, editing the position of these similar objects by moving a key object, moves them all accordingly, but keeps them scattered, instead of aligned.
    - So.. they will ALL need to be either replaced, or.. aligned ONE BY ONE..

    I could go on.
    I am a bad writer and not a native English speaker,
    However, I hope this is a convincing case for both users and developers, that will be implemented.

    :) Thanks for reading and kind regards!

16. Split / Divide Paths into equal parts

    It would be useful being able to split a path into a specific amount of equal parts. Tools like including the possibility to include a gutter like the tools we find in the "Split into Grid" option would be superb too.

    There are ways around to get it. but in makes the whole process tedious and not what someone would expect from software like Adobe Illustrator in 2020.

    PS: It also doesn't make sense that we can not sing in with our Adobe Account into this specific UserVoice forum. But I guess that paying our membership doesn't makes our opinion more relevant. Or should do?

17. Simulate color blindness for accessibility

    It would be nice to be able to quickly check my work for accessibility. A button group/panel that lets me switch between protanopia, deuteranopia, tritanopia, and monochromacy would be really useful. Arguably, a monochromatic view is useful outside of accessibility, allowing one to check the tonal or value relationships in a design. This feature is not only applicable in Illustrator but across many of your products.

18. Paste into selected object

    Very easy to paste easily from the clipboard to the selected object.
    ⌘ + alt + shift = paste into selected object.

    Currently, the option is complicated and not intuitive. A lot of time.

19. Automatically update legacy format when saving...

    When working on an older version of illustrator - when you save, you get a notice about saving in a legacy format. I would like a preferences option to automatically save in the latest version when working on legacy files. Right now I have to use save as.

20. Merge multiple vector files files

    It would be very beneficial if you could target two or more files (.ai/.svg./eps/pdf) and merge all artboards in each of those files into one new document. There are scripts out there to merge multiple files but they often ignore the original artboard size or only merge the first artboard in each of the source files. This would save so much production time such as for Ui design, merging stock assets.

    Thank you for reading!
