1. Adding more brushes to the touch workspace...

   I would like to be able to change my brush style while I'm working in the touch workspace. I can go into the essentials workspace and it reverts back to a simple brush when you change back to the touch workspace. It's extremely frustrating. Other programs can use other brushes and change layers, so it makes using Illustrator for drawing very difficult.

2. Visual indicator between a layer and a group

   In the layers panel, a group and a layer look the same in appearance. Thus, when a named group un-grouped accidently, it loses its name. This mostly occurs due to lack of visual dissimilarity between and group and layer thumbnail. May be a small marker in the corner of the thumbnail (indicating whether its a layer or a group) should do the trick.

3. When Gradient Tool is active, make holding Alt switch to Eyedropper tool

   If we hold Alt when Gradient tool is active and there is a stop selected, we can click with Alt in Swatches to apply it to the stop (although no cursor feedback or hint signals it can be done). Besides this function, Alt+click is used for nothing...

   Use it to temporarily switch to the Eyedropper tool. This is a standard approach in many apps, it’s fast to learn, and just convenient.

4. GPU performance is not working properly

   GPU performance should improve efficiency when drawing complex objects, but the behavior has been delayed since CC 2018 (version 22).

   The file created in CC 2015.3 (version 20) is test sample.
   If you select a created object and move it with the mouse, the result will be completely different.

   2015.3 / 2017: Drawing delay does not occur when GPU performance is ON
   2018 / 2019 / 2020: GPU performance ON causes drawing delay, OFF is faster

   The confirmed environment is Windows 10 1909 + Intel Core i7-6700HQ + GeForce GTX 950M.
   In addition, although it is another data, the delay has been confirmed in Windows 10 1909 + Intel i5-8300H + GeForce GTX 1050.
   Therefore, it is not considered to be due to the environment or data.

   Original ((Japanese)
   Title : GPUパフォーマンスが適正に働いていない

   複雑なオブジェクトの描画ではGPUパフォーマンスによる効率向上が図れるはずですが、CC 2018（バージョン22）以降は動作が遅延するようになっています。

   サンプルとしてCC 2015.3（バージョン20）で作成したファイルを用意しました。
   作成されているオブジェクトを選択し、マウスで移動させた場合の結果がまるで異なります。

   2015.3/2017：GPUパフォーマンスONの状態で描画の遅延は発生しない
   2018/2019/2020：GPUパフォーマンスONでも描画の遅延が発生し、OFFのほうが速い

   確認した環境はWindows 10 1909+Intel Core i7-6700HQ+GeForce GTX 950Mです。
   また別データですが、Windows 10 1909+Intel i5-8300H+GeForce GTX 1050でも遅延は確認しています。
   よって環境やデータ固有によるものではないと考えます。

5. Add data attributes to elements for SVG export

   I'm using data attributes quite a bit these days, and have been experimenting with using them in SVG. They work very well, as a way of adding metadata or parameters to elements that can later be read by javascript/ES.
   But (of course) no support in illustrator for this feature. Worse, if I add them with another tool, then open the SVG in Illustrator, they get stripped from the document entirely. This is just stupid.

   Best of all, a data-attributes panel, very similar to the variable panel, but without the redraw bugs. Workflow something like this:

   Select an art object.
   Go to/Open data-attributes panel.
   Click + or select Add attribute from popup corner menu.
   Add (e.g.) "mood" with value "happy"
   Export SVG

   Corresponding element has data-mood="happy" in the markup, which can ne retrieved via javaScript.

   This would not just make me happy, but would also be very useful.

7. Prevent Pen and Pencil tools from auto-connecting when a modifier is pressed

   Sometimes I want to draw a new path WITHOUT connecting it to existing one (and without locking artwork). I'd like to have a modifier key that will temporarily disable auto-connecting.

9. Allow to rename attributes (fills, strokes, effects) in Appearance Panel

   Appearance are the most powerful feature of Illustrator, but the learning curve is difficult and for Advanced User it's difficult to manage and remember what are doing what in a Complex Appearance (cf. Screenshot where I had to use Colors to identify properties…)

   Please allow for all the items in the panel (fills, strokes and effects) ) to get custom names.

   It will be more easier to understand Complex Appearance samples and for Advanced users, it will be way more efficient.

   Another related request:
   Allow to make folders in Appearance Panel

10. File Specific "Export For Screen" Settings (mainly location)

    As a designer with multiple files,
    I want the ability to set the export for screens folder per file,
    So that I don't have to constantly relocate the location of the output for each file I open up. It would be helpful to get **** done.

    • When exporting a file the location identified for the first time is saved for subsequent times I access to export.

11. Allow to select several gradient sliders

    Sometimes I need to move several sliders in gradients at once.
    I have to select them one by one and move each at distance I need.
    I'd like to select several sliders and move them simultaneously.
    Of course, they should be very clearly marked as selected, or this would confuse, if you forget to unselect them and then try to edit color for one.

12. Add features to the Rearrange Artboards dialog

    I create a lot of new artboards ( 1 for each screen I am designing). Since Illustrator always puts new artboards at the right of the current top row on the workspace (regardless of the order specified for rearranging artboards), I often have to use the Rearrange Artboards command to make more space for the next artboard. The more artboards in the file, the more often I have to rearrange artboards.

    It would be great if I could tell Illustrator to:

    1. Add new artboards at the location indicated by following the layout pattern in the Rearrange Artboards dialog, with an option to 'wrap' when you get to the edge of the workspace.

    2. Align the group of rearranged artboards in the workspace after a rearrangement. The choices should be

    • Centered (as happens now), and
    • Top Left (which leaves the maximum space for adding new artboards without having to rearrange them.

    See the attached file for how the updated Rearrange Artboards dialog might look.
    Thx!

    Hi Everyone,

    Thanks for this feedback. This has been avialble since June 2020 release (version 24.2). Further, when you’ll select a single object/group, Align To setting will default to Align To Artboard.

    Please update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

    Thank you for all the feedback.

    Thanks,

14. Reinstate the Full Retype Editing Functionality

    I have been a dedicated user of Adobe products and have greatly appreciated the advanced features that facilitate creative workflows. One such feature was the "Retype" function which allowed users to edit text directly within images. This feature was incredibly useful for many of us in the creative and professional fields, as it streamlined our processes and enhanced productivity.

    However, the Retype feature now seems limited to only identifying similar fonts rather than enabling direct text editing within an image. This limitation has significantly impacted the utility of this tool.

    Could you please consider reinstating the full functionality of Retype that allowed text editing directly within images? It was a distinctive and valuable feature that contributed to richer, more flexible creative processes.

15. プロパティパネルのアピアランス部分に濃度設定を追加してほしい

    現状のアピアランスパネルでは塗りや線の色を設定する際に塗りのアイコン部分をクリックするとスウォッチが開き素早くカラーを変更可能です。しかし、そのスウォッチに対して薄い色が欲しい場合、開いたパネルで１回ボタンをクリックすることによりカラーパレット表示に切り替えた上での調整が必須です。
    この手順はワンクッション増加するためにプロパティパネル上の不透明度の設定を調整することで代替してしまうというワークフローが増加しています。これはデータ上に安易に透明効果を適用した部分を増加させる事に繋がり、適切な設定を施されないままトラブル誘発の原因となってしまっています。
    なにより、不透明度を下げるという事はその下の情報を表示する事に繋がりますから色を薄く設定するという意図からはかけ離れた行為であると言えるでしょう。
    また、以下のチュートリアルにおいても色を薄くする目的でに安易に不透明度の利用を勧めています。

    https://helpx.adobe.com/jp/illustrator/how-to/basics-essentials-workspace-illustrator.html

    この説明はまずいです。塗りの濃度調整及び不透明度の設定はそれぞれ明確な使い所が存在し、適切に使い分けるべき機能です。

    さて、ここで提案なのですが、InDesignの様にプロパティパネルのアピアランス部分の「塗り」と「線」の項目に濃度の設定項目を追加していただきたいと思います。
    InDesignとはスウォッチの性質が異なるのですが、設定したスウォッチに対して濃度の項目で設定した数値を単純に割合として計算した数値のカラーを適用出来れば問題ないと考えます。
    添付の機能追加提案分の画像の赤で囲んだ部分のイメージのようにしてはいかがでしょうか。
    こうする事でユーザーは簡単に塗りや線の濃度を調整可能となります。

    ぜひご検討頂けたらと思います。

16. Allow to change the UI language inside the program

    Add language option inside the program, instead of using system standard language. And can't use Creative Cloud application. My school have already application from Adobe which is install before hand. And applications has not been added to the list in Creative Cloud, there for I can't edit language.

    Just add option to change language inside the program.

18. Infinite Canvas

    I find myself using more and more Figma to brainstorm and create my designs as I have a single document containing all of my visual explorations.

    For print assets I go back to Illustrator and create the final file, but I really wish I could have done it all in illustrator. So just removing the canvas limit.
    Not artboards or number of something — just being able to spread and spread your ideas in the same place.

19. Add dividers/separators to custom tools panel (or enable stacking/docking them vertically)

    It would be nice to be able to visually separate tool groups in custom toolbars since there is no way to stack them vertically. Think "groups" in Microsoft Office apps' "ribbon". We can currently only...

    A) Mash all of our tools into one toolbar, with no means of visual organization apart from the order in which they appear (I don't count stacking the tools as "visual organization", since I cannot see them).

    B) Snap multiple toolbars together, but not while docked to edge of UI. They will not be movable together like this, and other UI elements can overlap them. Far from ideal.

    C) Dock the toolbars together horizontally. This is a massively inefficient use of screen space.

    Thanks!

    ---

    P.S.: This is more of a peeve than anything, why do toolbars occupy all vertical space even when there are no tools there? We're going back to smaller screens now, with touch interfaces, so being able to utilize screen real estate is crucial.

    Actually, someone submitted a request for this already titled "Unable to Resize Tool Panels (verticle axis)". It started to receive votes and the mods (groan) closed it since it was worded sort of like a bug report, and mistaken for one. Sorry, but this is why you don't outsource your online presence to non-native-English-speakers. It makes you a punchline.:

20. Allow Artboards to snap to the grid

    I'm working on a heavily modular layout and the modules are snapping to the grid nicely. However when duplicating the artboard, the artboard will not snap to the grid.

    This therefore throws the modules slightly off the grid as the Artboard position has to be matched by eye.

    I've also downloaded and tried the CC 2019 pre-release and it still does not allow snapping of artboards to the grid.

    Please fix this, thanks.

    I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 24.3.0 which is available worldwide now.

    Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

    You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

    Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!
