  1. Offset Path - Option to offset to one side of path only

    I wish the "Offset Path" gave me the option to offset the path to one side of the path only.

    When creating labels for linear features on a map it is useful to create an offset version of the line you are labeling (road, river, etc.) and place the type on that path. Sometimes you can just copy the path and nudge it above or below the line that needs to be labeled, and type along that path. But this doesn't always work nicely if the path curves a lot.

    Offsetting a single line in Illustrator results in a path…

  2. Allow to use units other than points for Thickness in Pathfinder Trap or Pathfinder Options dialogs

    Illustrator is an international application.

    But for some reason we still have places in its UI when we are hardbound to specific units, like points in Pathfinder Trap, or PPI as the only resolution unit (while Photoshop allows PPCM — please upvote this request here, http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/32403901)

    No, this value can be anything, and we need other units than points.
    No, it does not get automatically recalculated.
    No, it’s not 1998 now.

  5. Always call guides as 'guides'

    Open Layers and Control panels.

    Enable rulers and drag a guide from one.
    Take a look at how the selected guide is called:
    — <Guide> in Layers
    — Path in Control

    Now create a rectangle and a line, and also draw a path with the Pencil.
    Convert all three to guides with View > Guides > Make Guides (Cmd/Ctrl + 5).
    Compare the names:
    — <Rectangle> and <Line> but <Guide> in Layers
    — Rectangle and Line but Path in Control

    Sure, these first two are technically live shapes (and have dedicated controls in Control)... but also are guides. Why Ai…

  6. User Friendly Subscription Services

    Change the subscription model from yearly to monthly as default. In it's current state, the basic subscription is misleading. It claims it's monthly but locks you into a yearly contract. There are two ways to fix this.

    1. Use an honest model that is fully monthly with no contracts.

    or..

    1. Create better easy to read text that clarifies if the subscription is monthly or yearly.

    Please fix the subscription services to better reflect their intentions.

  8. 変数のデータセット名をCSVからインポートできるようにして下さい。

    変数の機能はとても便利なのですが、インポート時にデータセットの名前を任意のものにできないので不便です。現状だと、自動的にデータセット名1、データセット名2、データセット名3....というような名前が設定されます。これでは実際に選択するまでなんのデータなのかわかりません。
    現状はイラストレーター上で一つ一つ変更するか、XMLでダウンロードして名前を変更しなければならず、不便なので、よろしくお願いいたします。

  9. User defined scales for Dimension tool

    Repost from general discussions:
    I'm delighted to see the addition of the dimensioning tool, but I'm not wild about the fixed choice of scaling ratios. The option to set one's own scales would be great.

    Failing that, a 1:12 scale seems like a glaring omission for those of us still using inches and feet.

    Am I missing something?

    It is possible now to set up a custom scale in Ai Beta 28.4.0.2.

    In Dimension Tool Options dialog open the Scale dropdown and choose custom to get the Custom Scale dialog.

    It works for decimal scales only, like 1:12 or 1:15, but not for Imperial scales like 1/16"

    Please try it and comment back.

  11. Generate a full calendar design with a text prompt from a custom template

    I think this will be the next level of GenAI
    The idea is to generate text using AI recognition from the customized template and add multiple artboards with Gen AI.

    For example:

    If we have a calendar design for January 2025 with editable text.
    We input the prompt like "generate remaining months of 2025"
    The GenAI feature should recognize the template, colors, and text within.
    The GenAI should make additional artboards with the remaining months and accurate data keeping the template and the colors consistent.

    あるレイヤーを、添付画像の設定で「透明分割を分割統合」すると、レイヤーウインドウの中のレイヤーの位置が、一番上に来てしまうエラーがあります。
    いちいちレイヤーを元の位置に戻さなくてはならないのが面倒くさいです。

  15. Improve Assigning Color Profile

    I’ve been running into some challenges with color profiles in Adobe Illustrator that I think could use improvement. Every time I open a document, I’m asked to either assign or discard a color profile. The issue is, even when I choose and save the file, Illustrator asks me again when I reopen it. Is there a reason it’s not saving my choice?

    Another thing that could help a lot is when working with multiple images, like 20 or more. Instead of getting prompted one by one for each image, it would be much faster if I could see a list…

  16. A proposal to fix the mess that is Preferences > Units

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

    Units of measure settings are a mess right now, units can be set for General, Stroke and Type on a “global” level under Illustrator > Preferences, but “General” are overridden by Unit settings on document (local) level, however it does not apply to, nor can it be changed for Stroke and Type on document level. Thus adds a lot of unnecessary back and forth visits to Preferences > Units if you are working with delivery for different mediums (who isn’t?) print, web, motion graphics and so on, add multiple markets to that…

  18. The Flip buttons in the Properties panel should copy objects

    In the Transform section of the Properties panel there are Flip vertical and Flip horizontal buttons.

    When holding down Alt while pressing the buttons it would be convenient if they could copy the object, like InDesign does.

  19. It could be a system that automatically creates design examples with the content we provide

    It could be a system that automatically creates design examples with the content we provide. For example, you can think of it like in the Powerpoint application. Let's randomly add the content we have to a page and let it show us a few random design examples. It doesn't have to be perfect, it could just be at an idea level, maybe?

    ナビゲータ表示がアートボードや 孤立点などを
    削除したあとも広域で表示されるのを

    この現象がおきた場合、現行は新しいファイルに
    コピーをし直すしか無い。
