1. Vector Importing for Library Assets

   I would like the option to be able to import vector CC Library Assets as live vectors (rather than as a link) in Illustrator.

   This is a vector editing software.....and the asset I'm grabbing from the library to bring in as a vector asset (and probably originally built in Illustrator).....why can't I have an alternate means (ex. Shift+Drag for import = import as live vector art) to be able to bring the asset in as an editable piece of art?

   You can right-click on the asset you want to place as live vector and choose ‘Place Copy’ command to do that.

2. There are a number of issues with Adobe Libraries - Recovery, Archive, Search

   Library backups/Recovery - I have just had an issue of losing a library of over 200+ logos. Whether this was because of a glitch or human error isn’t clear. One thing that is clear is that there is currently no way of recovering libraries.

   Archive old libraries - Also we have old libraries which we spent time creating for all of our clients. Half of these clients are no longer working with us, we need to keep their folders incase they re engage with us however they are cluttering up the menu.

   Search function - The search function seems useless. All of our files and folders are correctly named and yet they don’t show up in library searches.

3. Allow for graphics placed from CC Library to be expanded and converted to curves

   Right now, when you place a vector from the CC Library, you can't use it as if it were a vector created on the spot. This hinders speed of creation and prevents 2 crucial things:

   1. You can't change colors of the vector without editing the original CC item
   2. You can't use it with pathfinder for a print job for example (imagine you want to cut a shape out of PVC or something). Right now, to do this, you must double click the library item, copy and paste it on your document.

   Altough it might not seem much work, if, for example, we're working with a placeholder icon and we have a bunch of them, the benefit of the CC Library is obvious, as you can place the icon in all the places you need them, tweak/change the icon and it will automatically be updated in all instances. And in this case, if you are going to do a print-job that requires cutting that shape, you need to go replace those icons one by one, with the double-click, copy-paste method.

   I don't think i'm alone when i say this could really help going from a good use of CC Library to great!

   Thanks

   You can drag an asset with the Alt/Opt key held to embed it instead of placing.

   However, please note a PDF-copy of an asset is used, and not the original artwork you had imported into a Library, which means the embedded copy can have extra clipping masks and expanded effects.

4. Content of Library assets do not show in Outline Mode

   The content (paths, type, etc.) of Library assets do not shot in Outline Mode (CMD+Y).

   This makes them difficult/impossible to work with precisely or in complicated artwork.

5. Improve Library Panel UX with prefered behaviour options

   There are a number of small changes that would make getting things out of the library quicker and more convenient. The panel should have some preferences to set default behaviour. Options should include:

   • Toggle 'place copy' or 'place linked file', so it always behaves one way or the other. The way my team and I use the library, we ALWAYS want to place copies (never linked files). So having to hold down ALT to do this is a pain. In addition to this, holding down ALT behaves very badly. It misses the key press if you move too quickly, meaning you HAVE to delay, even on a fast computer. Removing the need to do this would be ideal.

   • Toggle swatch conflict resolution between 'always merge swatches', 'always add swatches', and 'choose per item': I ALWAYS want to merge swatches, and the extra mouse point and click on “merge swatches”, “OK” <repeat> for every single item, let alone batch items brought in together wastes time. Just let me set it once and forget about it!

   • for multiple imported items, make it optional whether or not to place each item individually (point and click, as per current behaviour), or to simply dump the whole lot all at once at the location of the cursor where the user released the mouse button.

   • make it optional whether to add an extra group around the imported item, or to simply name the item itself as-imported with the name in the library panel (without an extra group around it).

6. Drag a layer onto the Library panel

   After converting an image to outlines with Image Trace then expanding it I wanted to drag this onto the library... it did not let me.

   I would assume the same functionality as copy and paste into Photoshop when when I drag it on the library it would ask if i want it to be smart object, or bitmap etc..

7. Opening Fresco files from the cloud with Illustrator

   Hello, it's really great that Illustrator can now open files from the cloud. But unfortunately not the sketches from Fresco. You still have to export them first and then you can open them in Illustrator. It would be great if you could change that, i.e. open PSDC files from the cloud in Illustrator. Thanks a lot

   Hi,

   You are now able to send Fresco files to Illustrator on the desktop with the latest version of Fresco and Illustrator. You can also place embed Fresco files in Illustrator. Please give it a try. In the future, we will also add smoother options to copy paste objects on both the Illustrator surfaces – desktop and iOS.

   Thanks,
   Sanjit

8. Library search and place behaviour

   As I drag an item out of the library panel, as soon as the item clears the edge of the panel, the search results reset to whatever library I was looking at before; the search results are lost.

   This frequently results in me having to repeat the exact same search multiple times over which can be madening. Consider the following situations:

   1) I forgot to alt-click/my alt-click didn't register, and I'm stuck with a linked file which can't be converted to a useful vector (I've never yet actually wanted to place a linked file from the library, so having that as default is not ideal).

   2) I moved the mouse slightly while I was placing the item and it scaled wierd (happens just so freeking often).

   3) There were a few other things in that same search that I also wanted to place (yes, I know I can select multiple things but why can't I do this thing my own way? The above two issues stack ontop of this issue, meaning I don't always WANT to select multiple items from the library!).

10. Some type of notification when a linked CC library asset has changed...

    I'd like some type of notification when a CC library asset changes so I can choose to keep the current version (essentially un-linking it) or update to the latest version. This notification should happen when opening documents as well as while they are open. It does not have to be a modal dialog, it could also just be that the asset gets an icon or is highlighted somehow - but something noticeable. Better would be the ability to specify whether I want it to update art automatically, notify me that an updated asset is available by highlighting somehow, or notify by a dialog forcing me to either un-link or update.

11. The ability to add CSS code from the Generator to CC libraries

    Hi there, I wanted to put in a feature request that would allow a designer to add CSS code from the generator to be added to CC libraries as a text file.

    As a designer, I create elements for our dev team and they are able to take the CSS code I generate from my designs and integrate it into another product for web development. But it would be good to give them a CSS library folder where they can access the code for the designs. At the moment in my testing, it only creates a graphic of the text, which is not much use.

    So, yeah this I think would be a great feature of Adobe Illustrator.

13. Spark icons in Illustrator

    With the icons in Adobe Spark being free to use, and especially now that we have the ability to save files from Spark as a PDF, I've found myself utilizing the iconset from Spark in Illustrator (across Adobe CC really) by creating a blank document, inserting icons, saving as PDF, opening in Illustrator.

    It would be awesome if this process could be streamlined with the icons from Spark possibly being added to Illustrator, Photoshop, etc. Possibly from an addon, or by adding a new live and constantly updated set of symbols similar to how Adobe Fonts has been incorporated into the CC suite.

14. Creative Cloud Documents - File Management

    I think one of the most important facilities for making good use of Cloud Docs will be document management. I have been extremely frustrated by the total lack of such features in the recent Document Open interface, which just lists some very small number of recent docs, without any consideration of folders, projects, clients, or other important organizational features. The OS provides us with hierarchical folders that can do a fairly good job of organizing the dozens (sometimes hundreds) of files on a project or for a client, but without some facilities for that purpose, I can see the proliferation of dozens (hundreds?) of cloud docs, now encompassing multiple Adobe applications, turning into a nightmare of disorganization.

    The basis of any file management system has to be the provision and support of metadata. This probably will require sidecar files, or at least a central Adobe db of filenames and attributes. The simplest facility would be allowing users to create open-ended KEY WORDS for individual files, since that doesn't have to involve a hierarchical database. Files can be tagged by project, by in-house creator, by client contact name, by client company, or anything else that helps.

    Here's an example I deal with every day -- (admittedly from InDesign, not Ai)

    For one client, I an designing a book interior: graphics, layout, typesetting, etc. Since it's a 500-page volume, I use separate InDesign files for each of its 55 chapters. After performing an operation on the "book" (metadata managed in InDesign), every chapter file is modified. So from then on, all I ever see in the Document Open interface is the last 30 chapter titles. This is absolutely useless! What I need to see is the files I'm working on for other clients, other projects for this client, the chapters I'm currently most concerned with, and so on.

    Please consider these issues as you develop further facilities in support of Adobe Cloud Documents.

15. Update linked assets for large number of files

    I have an asset in CC Libraries that I used in 50+ ai files. Those ai files are then used in a layout in InDesign. If i change the asset in CC Libraries I would like a way to force an update of that asset to all those AI files so that the update propagates through to my InDesign layout.

16. Allow to drag CC Library items directly to Asset Export panel

    I've just finished dragging 24 logo variations to the CC libraries pane and named each individually.

    Now I want to export each of these in various formats, but I can't drag directly from the CC Libraries pane to the Asset Export pane.

    Instead, I have to rename every single one manually when dragging all 24 into the asset export pane.

    What a pane!

    it would be nice to have one library with different categories.. you update it once and see it in every illustrator file!

20. Adobe Libraries — Point/Direct to the ACTUAL original file to edit

    The more I use libraries, the more I like it! However, instead of creating a "virtual" library of duplicated files, maybe store/use the ACTUAL original file so as to reduce loads of duplicated files, confusion as to the "latest" version(s) created and a crazy file naming system.

    Right now this is what it does:
    Actual Original File: SSRLogoRGB.ai
    Clicking on "Edit Original" in any Adobe program: SSRLogoRGB_cf14017d-6564-4298-9f8f-d800bd2b4a91.ai
