Please allow the width of the Info Panel to be adjustable.
I believe users around the world would prefer to keep palettes as compact as possible in order to maximize the display area for their artwork.
However, the "Info Palette," which is frequently referenced, is too wide, and when docked, it dictates the overall width of the palette area.
I would greatly appreciate it if the Info Palette could be made more compact—perhaps by allowing a vertical layout or similar adjustments.2 votes -

X e Y muito proximo de L e A
as lacunas dos controladores de posição ficam muito proximos dos controladores de dimensão e por diversas vezes isso confunde o uso.

Font Family field (and others) in Character panel (and others) doesn’t get resized
If we dock Character panel together with a panel that can be resized (like Layers), we get the ability to resize both.
Sound useful if you need to long font names... but this is the filed that doesn’t get resized.I don’t really object against the layout of the panel (although it’d benefit from getting reshuffled, adaptive layouts is not a new thing in UI), but perhaps Ai should resize fields at least?

Allow to customize color of text used by Distance Guides
Recently Illustrator received Distance Guides (can be disabled in Preferences > Smart Guides > Invoke Distance Guides), thanks to this request: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/34302196 (it uses Opt/Alt, not Cmd/Ctrl)
For some reason the color of text in these is black — while the lines use the one set for object guides (magenta by default today). It makes it very hard to see when working with dark designs.
Dimension Tool uses magenta color for the same text... I think it should be either magenta as well, or a separate option should be used to set the color.

가장 최신버전에서, 인디자인 관리자실행해야 정상 기능이 작동하는 점이 개선해주세요
일러스트에서, 가장 최신버전에서, 세로방향쓰기 할 때, 한글과 영문 둘다 왼쪽에서 오른쪽 방향으로 쓰이게 되었으면 좋겠습니다.인디자인 관리자실행안하고 실행하게되면 일부도구툴과 위에 윈도우 창들의 기능들이 일부 활성화가 안되는 현상이 발생합니다.

Scrollable tabs
I would like if the Ai interface was less "cluttered" and "manual" to use.
Specifically, as in the case of having many tabs open than they fit in the viewport, I have to click on the double chevrons (>>) to only be able to open one file at a time. Rather, would you guys consider making it scrollable?

Allow to show simple fractions instead of decimal fractions when possible in input fields
(↑Francais↑ / ↓English↓)
Ajouté les mesures en Fraction
Dans la case "Propriétés", dans la section L: & H: , ajouté les mesures en Fraction et permetre de convertir les décimal en Fraction, les Fractions sont par example .: 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/8, 1/16, etc...
Pouvoir écrire manuellement comme indiqué .: 1/4 qui convertie automatiquement en messure décimal .: 0.25in (Pouce) ainsi de suite.
Dans les montages graphiques, sa serais beaucoup plus pratique d'utiliser les mesures Fraction que de chercher les mesure en décimal qui est difficile à certain moment.
C'est un outils et messure très essentiel dans la zone Américain/Canadienne…

Add color to toolbar icons.
The new 'Objects on a Path' tool has brought color to the toolbar. It now stands out a lot.
I have a bunch of plugins that add tools to the toolbar, and have a bunch of cryptic monochromatic icons. Perhaps it is time for both Adobe and plugin developers to bring some color to the toolbar so we have one more thing to help us remember which extremely specialized tool we use once in a blue moon is which?
(This also may require a switch in the prefs to revert to largely monochromatic icons for people who are colorblind and/or…

Layout for Swatch Info should allow to set grid, not only a row or a column
Creation dialog for Swatch Info object currently allows to choose between having it as a row or a column... great, when you have 5. Not great if there are 20 — it’s either a stupid long row, or a stupid tall column.
Add another value there to wrap these, to form a grid!
Make sure you also allow to set the layout order properly, like the Rearrange All Artboards dialog uses (RTL is a thing).6 votes -
Allow to quickly enable or disable all Text Options for cards in Swatch Info objects
Text cards for Swatch Info objects can have a lot of items displayed.
I found that I either need all of these or none often. The only way to choose between these two major modes is to patiently toggle each one manually.
...meanwhile in Asset Export we can easily choose to use All or No Artboards with dedicated buttons. Perhaps there should be a way to do the same thing here?
It should be allowed both when creating and when editing a Swatch Info object.2 votes -

Is there a way to turn off the "Help Toolbar" (grey bar with "?") at the bottom of the screen?
Can this be a Preference to be turned off if not needed? It eats into valuable real estate at the bottom. I used to be able to view an 8.5 x 11 document @100% on my 27" iMac. Now I have to reduce it down to fit.
2 votesWe can hide it with Window > Help Bar command, the same way we choose the other panels to show or hide

「シンボルオブジェクト」に対してのコンテクストタスクバーの搭載 Installation of a context taskbar for "symbol objects"
「シンボルオブジェクト」に対してのコンテクストタスクバーの搭載も要望として、是非お願いします。特に置換するときが格段になるはずなので。
Please also request the installation of a context taskbar for "symbol objects". Especially when it comes to replacing, it should be much more.3 votes -
Text accessibility checker
It would be great if adobe design tools provided a built in checker or warning system for type that does not meet the 4:5:1 standard for contrast. Currently I have to use third party tools to verify that the colors have enough contrast. Would be great if I could do that right in that app or if a warning popped up similar to overset text.

Show build number on splash screen
Ai is evergreen, sure, SaaS and things...
But it’s extremely important to know what exact build we are using all the time since features and bugs differ.
Help > About shows the build number, but why not show it directly on the splash screen as well?2 votes -
Unify / bring closer the contextual task bar with the simplify/smooth adjustment bar
When I chose Edit Path from the contextual task bar to smooth or simplify a path, the slider bar for the smooth menu pops up somewhere near the path not on the same contextual task bar, so on multiple actions that means a lot of mouse travel from the contextual task bar to the simplify/smooth adjustment bar.
