Has anyone tried Moho by Smithmicro? Pretty fast vector animation tool. It has a drawing adjustment tool called Magnet. Here's how it's described in the manual: "The Magnet tool is similar to the Transform Points tool - it is used to move points around. However, instead of moving the selected points, it moves points based on the strength of the magnet. When you click with this tool, the region of strength is displayed. Any points within this region will move with your mouse, but the points closer to the center of the mouse click will move the most. (The radius of the magnet’s strength region can be adjusted in the tool options area.)"

It is so needed. It's similar to Cinema 4D's brush tool.

Not only is it super quickly to adjust the tools brush size by click dragging with alt pressed, but you can also restrict it to only selected points. It is by far the best vector tool I have used. I'm now exporting my artwork from illustrator to moho just so I can use this tool. Else it takes hours in illustrator selecting and moving each individual anchor point! (which by the way is super annoying as your point selection code has a tendency to not be sensitive enough or far too sensitive.)

Example: I have 3 squares. 2 large ones and one small one overlapping the two. (see picture)
The task is to set the small red square to exactly 140 x 140 mm without losing the proportions in size or position to the blue or green box.

I want an exact scale up where the end result is that the red square is 140 mm x 140 mm.
I can use rulers, but the small square doesn't snap since it isn't touching the bounding box. Using this I can eyeball it and get a result like 140.062 x 140.062 mm. I need it to be 140 x 140 mm flat. And this method takes time, dragging the size back and forth since the middle square isn’t centered.
Same issue if I were to draw a 140 x 140 mm square and try to match the red one to it. It will snap in one corner of the drawn 140 x 140 mm square guide, but move away from that corner when scaled.
In this example I can of course calculate the increase to 140% and scale accordingly. Works great for this simple example, but it is much more tedious when I want to scale a text for instance or objects with uneven numbers, where I need a stack height to be e.g. 100 mm tall. Here the text often is something like 14.532 mm to start and I have to calculate 100/14.532 = scale up of 688,1365%. Just takes a lot of time.
And for items that needs scaling in two directions I need to make two separate calculations (if I wanted the new dimensions of the square to be e.g 140 x 190 mm)
What I propose is a tool/possibility to use the same technique as when aligning object, combined with the properties tab.
1. I select all 3 objects using shift or simply dragging the selection box over
them.
2. I then click the red box again without holding shift, making it an indicated selection (like when aligning objects)
3. I open up the properties tab. Either the W x H is then changed to show the dimensions of the red box, or a new input area opens up so both the entire groups outer dimensions is shown as well as the dimensions of the red square.
4. I proceed to enter my desired values in the input boxes, setting the new dimensions for the red square
5. The program scales the entire group according to the new set dimensions of the red square.

I wish there was a way to simultaneously scale a set of objects. Say I have 20 shapes that are all different sizes, but I want them to all be 200pxH x _W. It would be nice to be able to select them all and choose the point to scale from, as usual, but then have them all scale to the size given - so some might shrink, some might enlarge, etc. depending on their previous sizes. And it would be nice to turn on or off the skew/constrain proportions. Seems kinda surprising that this functionality isn't in Ai. If it is, and I'm missing it, I'd love to find out how. Nevertheless, that's my request. Thanks!

ALSO, there really need to be dates on here - for posts and replies. I don't know if this is for a thread from 10 years ago, etc.

Currently, when I like a certain color that's formed through the combination of 2 or more transparent objects (or objects with blend modes applied), I can't copy that exact color. The eye-dropper tool simply copies the color from the topmost object. I often find myself taking a snap of the display and then paste that image within illustrator and copying the color I want from that image.

Request: I'd like a tool, similar to the eye-dropper, but instead, it picks the RESULTANT color(s) that is displayed through transparent objects or even objects with BLEND-MODES applied to them.

I've attached an extremely simplified image.

Other tools (eg. 'Blob Brush Tool', Blob Brush Erasor Tool', etc.) take the default shortcuts for scale up and down. On my setup that's ] for increase size and [ for decrease size. Multiple tools share those keys, and that's great.

The Warp tool doesn't do this - you have to manually go into the tool preferences to change the scale. This breaks flow and wastes time.

The Warp Tool is a nice idea. It would be a very good tool - if it was fully implimented.

While we're at it, it could also be improved if it had an option to just deform pionts without adding or removing any (ie. without "simplifying" the path).
