  1. Ferramenta parametrica para a manipulação de vetories com nodes não destrutiva

    Acho que o illustrator deveria ter ferramentas de manipulação de vetories e objetos mais profunda. Utilizo softwares como autodesk maia, autodesk 3ds max, blender e houdini no pontualmente em minhas criações e eles tem uma abordagem muito interessante de manipulação 3d de vetores bem complexa.

    Além de que, o Illustrator é uma ferramenta muito utilizada por profissionais de branding para criações de logo, ou seja, exige que a forma criada seja o mais unica possível. Uma ferramenta paramentrica, por exemplo, que fizesse modificações como transformações em um objeto através de nodes complexos seria muito interessante.

    Grato pelo espaços de diálogo

  2. Find circle from a given arc

    A tool that, when clicking on a previously created arc, would calculate and give the circle whose circumference that arc is part of; this would enable easier amendments, recreation etc. Can sometimes be done by trial and error, but not always accurately, particularly with 'shallow' arcs for which the circle can be surprising large - difficult to know buy just increasing size, moving centre, repeating etc.

  3. नेपाली भाषामा अक्षरहरु नमिल्ने समस्या

    नेपाली भाषामा लाेगाे बनाउँदा नेपाली अक्षरहरु टुटेकाे हुनाले Illustrator बाट लाेगाे र छपाकाे काम गर्न सकेकाे छैन । यसका लागि अझै पनि Corel Draw नै चनाउनु परेकाे छ ।

    Illustrator मा पनि Microsoft Word Art Support गरे सजिलाे हुने थियाे वा कुनै Plugin भए राम्राे हुने थियाे

  4. Allow to cut path with a drag rather than a click when using Scissors

    I want the Scissors tool to be able to cut paths like the Knife does, with a click-and-drag, splitting a path at an intersection of straight/freeform (straight by default) drawn line with a path (ideally prioritizing selected ones over others, like requested here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/36111436)

    I’m rather tired of seeing this loud modal dialog when I don’t have Smart Guides enabled and miss a line (because the tool doesn’t have enough feedback by modern times’ standards: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/44725546)

    Take a look at the fake GIF I made to show how it should work.
    A single click should still work.

  5. Add Transform Again Individually / Transform Sequence Again / Sequence Again Individually commands, as in InDesign

    Illustrator has Transform Again command (and it’s rather useful), but InDesign has three additional commands:

    1. Transform Again Individually:
      Applies the last single transform operation to each selected object individually, rather than as a group.

    2. Transform Sequence Again:
      Applies the last sequence of transform operations to the selection.

    3. Transform Sequence Again Individually:
      Applies the last sequence of transform operations to each selected object individually.

    As described here: https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/transforming-objects.html#repeat_transformations

    Here is a video demonstrating the difference between these: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4gLe9LeRKI

    Sure, we have Transform Each as a workaround, but it doesn’t support custom pivots as tools do, and these are just faster.

  6. Configurable Trim Marks

    TL/DR: It would be incredibly helpful and relatively simple for AI's developers to let users configure the parameters of auto-generated trim marks.


    I've been using AI for three decades and somehow, even though I have been doing this the hard way that entire time, it never dawned on me until today to request this: configurable Trim Marks, both in Object: Create Trim Marks and Effect: Trim Marks. This is similar to the following request except that that one doesn't include the why that I feel is important:

  7. Frescoの「連続する範囲内を塗り」を追加して欲しい。

    ライブペイントではなく、塗りブラシのまま直感的に必要な範囲だけ塗りたい。

    これが出来ない&やりづらい為に他社のツールを利用せざる負えないケースが増えた。

  8. Dimensions Tool 3 Improvements

    1- Make dimensions styles saved with your artworks. So when you open different artworks at different scales, it remembers "by default" just like color mode or artwork size.

    2- Have dimensions presents to be saveable and loadable.

    2- When you update dimensions styles, have a button "update artwork" that will automatically update, if we choose so, existing dimensions placed in the artwork. Therefor we don't need to re-trace everything.

  9. Able to specify triangle inner angles

    Would it be possible to have an 'advanced' triangle dialogue box where you can specify the angles?. I often need to use this for creating conical cutter guides – I know I can use the rotate tool and use strokes, but feels like it could be much easier as it's very long-winded.

  10. Rotation of Subset of Shape Anchor Points via Direct Select

    Once you select multiple anchors on a path (but not all of them) you should be able to rotate only those anchors. Currently it's possible to move the anchors but not rotate them.
    Ex: You have a path creating a shape of a full body silhouette of a person with the face in profile. The face is looking straight left. You want to adjust the face to be looking more upward. Select the anchors that make up the head then new feature rotate those anchors so the head is tilted upward. Bonus Once you're in the rotate interface, have the…

  11. Disable geometry size limit for corner widgets

    It seems like there is a hard limit on the object size for corner widgets.
    Take a look at the GIF:
    when my shape is 1.42 px tall — I can see the widgets,
    but if I make it 1.41 px — widgets vanish... and it doesn’t matter if I zoom in, they won’t appear!
    It makes it very inconvenient when designing pixel art, icons, small things... This should be screen-based, not geometry-capped!

    While you are here, take a look at the related request:
    Make the corner widgets automatically disappear in small objects

  12. No puedo cambiar el tamaño de los objetos

    Desde hace unos meses que no he sido capaz de volver a utilizar illustrator porque NO ME DEJA CAMBIAR EL TAMAÑO DE LOS OBJETOS/ELEMENTOS. Esto quiere decir que para mi caso, la palicación se ha vuelto inútil. Supongo yo que es un bug de mi programa pero inlcuso desinstalando y volviendo a instalar. No funciona. Esto es muy frustrante y he tenido que migrar a otras aplicaciones de diseño, y francamente lo odio. Alguien me puede ayudar por Dios??? Eso es DESESPERANTE.

  13. Support all pie functions Ellipse offers for other live shapes

    There a few things circular pies need in Ai:
    1. Ellipse tool, circle pie, Shift snap to angles: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31358686
    2. Allow to define circle pie angles in percent, with snapping options: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/46268533
    3. Reverse Pie with Opt/Alt when creating or editing an ellipse: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49532216

    It would also be nice to add the same behavior to rectangles, for the much beloved Square Pie. Casserole, perhaps? :)

  14. Reverse Pie with Opt/Alt when creating or editing an ellipse

    It would be nice if, when holding Option/Alt, the opposing piece of the pie opens or closes symmetrically, similar to how the option modifier switches drawing shapes from the corner to the center of the object. Option+Shift would add a snapping behavior to the symmetrical pie.

  15. Allow to copy the area value from the Info panel

    Why can we copy a HEX color from the Color panel, but can’t copy the area of it (or any other value as well)?

    In some cases we need to get the value to share with someone, and now Ai wants us to retype it.

    Sometimes we also need these to be placed on canvas — but I think it’s a job for the Dimension tool? Why Measure and Dimension are different tools in the first place?

  16. Need Save As... in Edit Toolbar options

    I use saved toolbars, but they are tedious to create because when you click New toolbar... you get a blank toolbar and then have to add each tool one by one. I would like to open an existing toolbar (like Advanced) and have the option to Save As... under a new name - then, I can remove the tools I don't want and save it. Better to work from a starting point, than have to start from scratch.

  17. Remove quantization / rounding for the Curvature tool

    Curvature tool is handy, but it places new points based on a hidden grid. The grid is screen-spaced, and it means the step of it stays the same on the screen, no matter what level of zoom we have.

    Once a point is places and the mouse button / pen is released, we can move this point freely, with no rounding!
    Why can’t we have this behavior for new points? Why limit new points in precision?

  18. Add an option for Curvature tool to prioritize the currently selected path

    Curvature is one of the more recent tools Illustrator introduced (well, in 2014... time flies). Unlike older tools, it tries to be smart. One of this 'smart' behaviors is an ability to both select and edit paths. It prevents us from placing the next point of the currently selected path right above an existing unselected path — the tool treats it as an attempt to select the latter.

    There is an existing request to tweak the continuation tolerance, similar to what Pencil has: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/34578331

    But to be fair, I’d love more options for the tool in general. So far it…

  19. Scale tool with value input and custom anchor

    I'm not necessarily looking for a script—I’m just curious if a tool could be developed to enhance Illustrator’s Scale tool. Specifically, I’d love the ability to input a custom scale value (e.g., uniformly 125%, 100% height, 20% width, etc.) while also being able to position a custom anchor point, as currently available in the Scale tool.

    I understand that the Transform Each function allows users to select individual objects, input values, and place an anchor point. However, this feature has limitations:

    The anchor point can only be placed within the object's bounds.
    To uniformly scale multiple objects, users must group…
