Make the Free Transform tool respect the pattern-transformation hotkey.
With every other transformation tool in Illustrator, you can hold down the `/~ key to affect just the pattern applied to the shape - the Rotate, Scale, and Shear tools, dragging it around with one of the Selection arrows, bumping it around with the arrow keys.
But not with the Free Transform tool. The Free Transform tool doesn't know about this switch that every other tool has. Probably because it was implemented long after the others, and nobody involved in it knew about this behavior.
Today I got to explain this to yet another a new user who wanted to…

Show length of path
Need to know the exact length of paths, Paths at angles, can't tell length when need to change all, no way to adjust by length. Seems like a basic thing but can't find it anywhere.

Pencil tool
I want ex pencil tool back.
Ex pencil tool was that retouching the line by pencil tools can make the line smooth. Now, even the setting is the most smooth, retouching can not make the line smooth...
It was really easy way to make the line smooth without pushing option button to use smoother.2 votes -
Set exact dimensions to one object in a group that affects the entire group.
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…2 votes -

Better fine tuning blob brush
Hello,
I would like to have a better setting option for the accuracy of the blob brush. The middle setting is actually too straight for me. Lines are straightened mercilessly. If you move the slider one point to the left, they are not straightened enough. That's why it would be great to have four additional options (see screenshot, red lines).Thanks a lot

les outils sélection sont inversés !
les outils de sélection et sélection directe sont inversés !
Si on sélectionne l'outil de sélection directe (icône flèche pleine) il apparait évidé sur le plan de travail et inversement....C'est énervant !!1 vote -
AI 2021: Can't see previous path outline while transforming
It took me awhile to be sure I was remembering this right (even though I have over two decades of experience with AI), but I feel sure of it now: the ability to see the present state of a path while you are dragging or transforming it has disappeared. This is a major problem — I have always relied on that path to, for example, shrink something in one dimension while not affecting any other.
I looked through the Preferences and View options carefully, I don't think I'm just missing it. I guess maybe the AI team thought they were helping…

Straight lines with Eraser tool
Many users have been asking for this feature for a long time: draw a line between two points with the eraser freely, without it being at 45°.
Why is that not possible? Like drawing with solid lines, without having to convert the contour line thickness (like the Blob Brush). Or constrain the brush as a spot between two precise places, which would amount to the same.2 votes -
Add a "meniscus" or converging corner type, or rather, the ability to flip corner rounding
It would be really handy to have a corner type whereby the selected points "converge" forward, rather than backwards. While thinking about this, I also thought it would be really handy to have "LEFT/RIGHT" arrow keys be able to "flip" corner rounding in and out, in addition to the "UP/DOWN" switching corner types.
Just saying, this would be a really cool product feature for many people, and probably not too hard to implement!

warp tool - bloat tool
I have several suggestions on this tool :
1 - warp tool and bloat tool should have the same sensitivity. Now, with the same intensity they react extremly differently. I often have to open the dialog box, which is laborious so :
2 - Find a way to adjust the tool without opening the dialog box,
ALt + click = change the size
Alt + Shift + click = change the size proportionaly
Alt + Ctrl + click = change the intensity and voilà!
3 - Is there a way to keep my tool setting, because it is very laborious…2 votes -
Scale the graphs. SCALE THE GRAPHS. SCALE THE GRAPHS. SCALE THE GRAPHS.
WHY CAN'T WE SCALE GRAPHS. THIS IS SO BASIC. IS ADOBE BASIC? STOP BEING BASIC. SCALE THE GRAPHS.
This is a critical functionality for infographics and you've all but left it as something a child would have shown at an Adobe Max SNEAKS reveal with it's current level of development in comparison to the level the rest of the entire OS has reached.

Screenshot without the high light going off when i drag my curser over the screen!
I need a clean screenshot. I need the screenshot without the high light going off when I drag my cursor over the screen! Yes. I try using preference and turn off the highlights. It didn't work. It would be great if you have a clear button that states the "SHUT OFF ALL HIGH LIGHTS INFO" button on the preference page.

Configurar tu barra de acciones rápidas
Poder configurar tu propia barra de acciones rápidas al seleccionar uno o varios objetos, de manera que puedas tener las herramientas que más uses en función a tu trabajo.
En concreto uso con mucha frecuencia la opción “shape builder” y cada vez que tengo que realizar esa acción tengo que pulsar dos ó tres veces una vez selecciono, si estuviera en la barra de acciones flotante que aparece al seleccionar ahorraría mucho tiempo.Gracias!

Drop color
Definitely miss adobe draw.
I’d love to see it be easy to drop in colors and for there to be brushes like in adobe draw.
Also the brush/ pencil seem really glitchy and not like a natural gesture1 vote -
