uninstall
how about making uninstalling this app normal like the rest of the software builders? You guys made a 5 minutes uninstall a ******** 2 hour task for me forcing to update creative cloud, creating an account so I can login to remove illustrator. I remember this next time I decide to download an adobe software.

Transfer files from Illustrator to Draw
It's easy to put files onto Illustrator from Draw, but there's no way to put them back in. I'd like to be able to seamlessly go between the two.

Fix the Libraries issue in all Apps
I've noticed that this issue goes back a few years and I haven't found one fix that's permanent. It notifies me that I need to sign in even though I already am.

Add multiple fills to a CC Library at once.
I think it would be really nice if you could select multiple shapes and add their separate fills into a CC Library. Helpful when making color palettes and things.

Keeping same values as original files (ai)
Working on repetitive files with slight copy change is nice to store in the libraries. I enjoy the quick and easy access to the files. But they do not retain the same value as originally dragged into the libraries. The measurements are converted to pixels. The bleed and art board values are consolidated. It would be nice to store all values from AI into the libraries.
Thank you!2 votes -
Create new Library from document like Photoshop
I have a file that has 124 individually named artboards (each containing 1 icon), and was looking for a faster way to add these icons (with their appropriate names) to a library, rather than having to drag each one from their artboard to the library panel, and then have to rename each one (again). Photoshop offers this capability

Library Organization
I can't figure out a way to organize our cloud libraries. We are trying to make one library per client and having everything in chronological order can make it really hard to find icons and other elements that could be grouped by category. If we could drag them around to rearrange that would be great, if we could create little groups or folders of them like swatches that would be even better.
Thank You!

Creative Cloud Files appear in Library Panel in Illustrator
Currently folders and files in the Creative Cloud Files folder are local and synchronise with the cloud. They are visible on the website but are separate from Creative Cloud Libraries that we use inside Illustrator. It’s tantalisingly close to being an awesome feature, yet…
Please join them up! Make creative cloud files visible in the libraries panel in Illustrator, and vice versa; and make the libraries available locally.

Change order of assets in Library...
Allow us to organize the library better, e.g., change the order that assets appear in inside a library.

Support for 9-slice scaling for assets in libraries
Many projects rely on the sharing of assets, but when these can't be correctly scaled or stretched due to the lack of support for 9-slice scaling, the shared library is of little use. It is especially a problem in responsive projects, where a number of items can have varying heights or withs such as menu bars, buttons and modals.
This has been a problem for years now.
When can we expect to see this remedied?

CC Library Items give wrong preview when dragged to artboard.
Objects dragged from a CC library as linked give sometimes a wrong preview.
Switching to CPU preview or dragging an embedded copy can solve it .

Asset name focus after dragging asset to cc library panel
I create a lot of Creative Cloud library assets, usually by dragging vectors from my canvas directly onto the Libraries panel. I like to immediately name my assets, so it would be a huge time-saver if, once an asset had been successfully dragged, the "name" field got focus. As is, I need to mouse over to the panel and double-click to rename.

Adobe CC Library Dropdown Categories and Groups
Adobe CC Library Dropdown Categories and Groups + Backup
Categories - I work for a large company, and while I LOVE the libraries, I hate scrolling. I'd love to be able to categorize them; for example, "Branding," "Imagery," "Products," "Stock," "Case Studies," "Creative" to cut down on the mega scroll effect.
Groups - Reiterating what another user said, group folders WITHIN the libraries would be very useful for one-off clients (or product launches) where you need to have lots of information in one library collection.
Backup - We need to be able to backup these libraries or have history restore…

CC Libraries import - unnecessary extra clicks and groups.
In the previous version, to bring a library element in you simple alt-dragged it and, upon releasing it, it would be in. Now there's an extra click to place the thing, which is totally unnecessary and annoying.
Also, library items appear inside a group which isn't in the file itself. Also unnecessary and annoying. Please set these features back to how they were before (just a simple alt-drag-release to place a library item, and no extra grouping).

Functionality to change the standard drag option from Libraries to "place copy"
I would like to receive an option to change the default drag and drop functionality to "Place copy" instead of "Place linked". This will save a lot of time and hassle.

Export from Libraries
Sometimes clients ask for icons and other assets to be delivered separately. If we could export items from the library or drag directly from the library to the asset export window it would be fantastic!

Allow CC Libraries to store point type text
If I drag point type into a CC library, it gets converted to area type with some seemingly arbitrary width.
In general, if I drag something into a CC library, I want to get out what I put in, not something else.
Thanks!

Move elements in CC libraries around
I would love to be able to create more sub-folders in libraries and be able to move elements with each folder around to help it become more organized
