  1. 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.

  3. Allow to snap to points of a compound shape with Dimension Tool

    It turns out Dimension Tool can’t snap to points of a live compound shape — the cursor displays a 'forbidden' icon and a click does nothing.

    The tool should treat the shape as every other tool does and allow to snap to all points (including those to be removed on expand) and intersections, and stay live when the shape is modified (when possible, until the topology changes too much to maintain the connection).

    Thanks to René Andritsch for the discovery.

  4. Puppet Warp should respect existing layer structures.

    I love Puppet Warp but I hate having to ungroup my paths and put them back in the layer structure that works for me when I'm done using Puppet Warp.

    Please do whatever needs to be done so that I can grab a bunch of paths about multiple layers, Puppet Warp them, and have them stay in the same place they were before I did this. I'm fine if it's a switch in the tool's settings because some people love this behavior.

  5. Allow Join Tool to join selected open diverging paths with a straight connection

    The Join Tool isn't working as it should. It trims extra paths but it doesn't join the anchor points.

  6. 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.

  8. Can Dimension tool measure angles for open intersecting paths?

    I'm finding it frustrating that it appears that the Dimension tool will not give me angles from open shapes, i.e. 2 intersecting lines.
    Am I doing something wrong for is this something anyone else is experiencing?

    Hello Adobe -
    I'm interested in becoming one of your Beta testers for this new tool I am hearing about regarding Adobe Max.
    What's shown is a way to take a 2D drawings and converting it in Adobe Illustrator a turn around version from the 2D to 3D art.
    Whom do I speak to to become one of your Beta testers. I work in the professional field of 2D and 3D and would like to give feedback on this tool. I work with Adobe Illustrator professionally in the industry. So whom do I contact moving forward?
    Thanks,
    Darien

  10. 寸法ツールの補助線を付けない

    寸法表示を「付けない」モードが欲しいです。

    現状では「補助線を隠す」項目がありますが、アピアランス分割して非表示オブジェクトの解除をすると補助線が現れてしまいます。

    作成する図面の都合上、補助線があると困るので「隠す」ではなく「付けない」選択肢が欲しいです。

  11. Shortcut with Cmd to select a tool

    Shortcuts with Cmd keys

    Please please make it possible to use the Cmd key to make shortcut to select a tool. This is crucial for working quick and efficiently. I know about the V and the A for choosing Selection and Direct Selection Tool, but when you are working with text, you cannot use these. Then you have to go the long way up to the tools panel to choose these. This make you work really slow.

    In Indesign it is easy to make this shortcut. In Photoshop and Illustrator it is prohibited. Please make this small adjustment to Illustrator…

  12. 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。

  13. Select multiple symbols for Symbol Sprayer

    I would like to spray a random variety of (self made) icons.
    Why not select multiple symbols and have the brush iterate through this selection?

  14. An option to convert a line into a dimension line

    Sometimes it’s so much easier to draw a line, using a familiar click-drag-release method, instead of click-click-click method Dimension Tool uses to Manual Dimensions!

    I really with to be able to covert a viable line (an open straight line with no handles and two points only, being it a live shape or not) into a dimension, with zero offset and no extension lines.

    It IS possible to do today, but using some shenanigans I show in a GIF attached. The way extensions can’t be set to zero is a problem though, and should be reported separately.

    Some plugins and scripts…

  15. 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

  16. Make Eyedropper to highlight text when painting formatting

    If you are holding Option/Alt with the Eyedropper you can 'paint' formatting onto text. At the moment you can't see exactly where this is applying though until you release the click. In Indesign, it highlights the text you are painting. It should be the same in Illustrator.

    This is important for formatting large piece of text, and with the lack of ability to use keyboard shortcuts when text is selected, this feature is even more important.

  17. Quick access to the grid, more artboards operations, advanced snapping options

    New features in the future?

    1. Quick access to the grid:
      Allow the grid to be activated directly from the main interface and to personalize the isometric grid or the classic grid , without having to navigate through the software settings or preferences. video demonstration 4

    2. Management of multiple canvases:
      Not only allow multiple canvases to be displayed in the same workspace and make it easier to copy and paste one or more objects between canvases (something that is already present), but more importantly offer the ability to flip the canvas and rename the canvas name directly and immediately. video demonstration…

  18. Allow for negative value input and Option click with Line Segment Tool

    The original idea by Johan Perjus, from https://medium.com/design-bootcamp/things-i-wish-adobe-would-address-with-adobe-illustrator-4796a89e1bae

    As you may know, holding down the Option key and clicking on your artboard with any of the shape tools (Rectangle, Ellipse, Polygon, Star) creates the shape centered on where you clicked, as opposed to the right and down from where you clicked. Please also apply this function to the Line Segment Tool as well as allow for negative value input in order to create the line in the opposite direction of the current angle value, just as you can enter a negative value to move an object in the opposite direction…

  19. Allow to have zero extension value for the Extension Lines for Dimensions

    For some reason there is a minimal value we can set for extensions above the dimension line — 0,01 pt.
    I want it to be zero.

  20. Put Apply to Selected button into Dimension Tool Options dialog

    At the moment we can edit existing selected dimensions using Control or Properties panel (except for Scale!)

    But if one chooses to open Dimension Tool Options dialog, all the settings won’t be applied to a selection, these would alter only dimensions created AFTER.

    I’d like to have another button here, to allow me to apply chosen settings to what I have selected already, or perhaps even to All, similar to the Properties-only quick action button (this and others there should also be available via Object > Dimension menu the team 'forgot' to add: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49010378)

    And so you know —…
