Remove Text to Vector from Properties panel
Would like an option to remove it from Properties panel as it sometimes opens on its own after I have closed it and it impedes my workflow having to close it again because it obstructs actually useful things Properties panel.

Synchronise tiled windows
I would like to have all tiled windows use the same panning and zoom settings as the window I am currently working in.
• How it's working now: each tiled window has its own zoom factor. Panning with the hand tool moves the view inside the active window.
• How it should work: zoom and panning are synched between all tiled windows. They all have the same zoom factor and X/Y position. If I zoom in the active window, all other windows zoom in as well; if I pan in one window, all other windows pan in the same manner.…

Changing 'Screen Mode' forgets where the window was located
In Photoshop you can use the F key to cycle through screen modes: Standard, Full Screen + Menu Bar, and Full Screen. This works as intended.
In Illustrator however, when you cycle through screen modes it will forget where your window was previously positioned. Instead, it defaults to taking up the entire screen. This is a bug.

Don't reset view rotation when pressing Escape
When you are in a rotated view, pressing Escape resets the rotation to zero degrees. This is frustrating when you're merely trying to exit Object Isolation or exit text editing.
There does not seem to be a Keyboard Shortcut for this operation, which I would expect to see.

Move document tabs under cursor when closing documents
When closing multiple document tabs using the X button on the side of the tab, the next document will move under the cursor. However, the tab size changes based on window size, filename length, etc. A better way would be to resize tab length after the cursor is moved away. The result would be that if you close Tab 1, Tab 2 would slide over and the X button would appear under the cursor. Many tabs could be easily closed without moving the cursor.
An example of software that uses this UI is Safari on Mac. Chrome does it too,…

Text to Vector Graphics (Beta) Feature: Delete multiple Variations
Hello,
Please add the option to delete multiple AI generated variations.
At this moment, if you hit the limit of generated variations, you are only able to select and delete 1 at a time, (which is very time consuming) instead of selecting multiple variations for deletion.

Rename artboards and layers easily
Please develop a method to easily rename artboards and layers. An option to switch between layers by pressing tab would be great. An option to find and replace text in artboard names would be perfect.
At the moment renaming artboards is a time consuming process because you have to doubleclick every artboard separately and enter text.1 vote -

Close panel by a middle-click on its header
Middle-click today is a common gesture.
In browsers and file managers with tabs it allows to close a current tab.
There is a feature request to allows us to close tabs in Ai as well: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests/suggestions/38150188-add-middle-click-to-close-documentBut I would also like to be able to close panel with a middle-click. Not collapse — this is what a left-click does — but just close the panel.

Add "Apply to all" to Embedded Profile Mismatch window
When opening a document that has lots of linked images in a different color space, having to press OK on every single prompt takes quite a long time.
My suggestion is to add an "Apply to all" checkbox to this window so I can instantly open the document. Attached is the windows I'm referencing.

Lock tools or pallets to the edge when using multiple monitors?
I'd like to be able to pin toolbars or windows to the inside edge when using multiple monitors. I like keeping my main display clear of obstruction and have my tool pallets against the "spine" between the two monitors on the secondary display. Illustrator only allows toolbar pinning to happen on the extreme left or right of all monitors... Please allow the ability to pin to the spine/seam of the monitors.

AI: trace in style of...
the new text to vector tool is amazing, especially the match to artboard/ stylepicker functionality.
Now I would like to import a photo to the artboard of an existing Illustration and trace it in the same style/simplification of this already existing vector file.

GRID in BACK/FRONT button
It would be great to have the option of GRID ON BACK and GRID IN FRONT in the Properties panel, for example. near the SHOW GRID button as when working with GRIDS sometimes it's better to have them in front and others in back and for this I have always to get into the Preferences panel so as to activate/deactivate this option and it's really annoying...

Add Focus Fill and Focus Stroke commands we can assign hotkeys to
Illustrator focuses either a fill or a stroke to be set.
We can control the focus with the hardcoded X key, that toggles fill and stroke, but it also requires to know which is active at the moment to know if we should press it.It’d be faster for professional user to actually force the stroke or the fill to be active, with dedicated absolute keys instead of relative ones.
I’d use something Alt+X and Alt+Shift+X (these are free), or remapped them to something even more simpler.
There is a related request:
