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?
TOPICS
Feature request , How-to23 votesIt 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.

Interaktiv malen-Funktion: es fehlt eine Lasso-Auswahlfunktion!
Interaktiv malen-Funktion: es fehlt eine Lasso-Auswahlfunktion! Nur direkt antippen oder Rechteck aufziehen ist zu wenig, besonders beim Einfärben von komplexen technischen Zeichnungen, zB Fahrzeugen!

「テキストからベクター生成」にレイヤーオブションを加えてください
背景と上に乗るキャラクター等をレイヤー分けできるような仕組みを追加してください。
たとえば、「下のレイヤー:波の穏やかな白い砂浜のビーチ、上のレイヤー:じゃれ合う2匹の子犬」
というようにプロンプトに記述したレイヤー構成に従って生成されるようになると格段に使い勝手が良くなると思います。

The Dimension Tool needs to have live updates
I like the new dimension tool, but it's not very helpful unless it updates the displayed dimensions when the size of the dimensioned object is changed. It should stay attached to the selected points when the size of the shape is changed as well.
12 votesThe Beta 28.4.0.7 now create live dimension objects, that track and follow the changes to the measured objects: resizing, rotating, moving...
As for now, moving only dimension breaks the link and expands the dimension (hopefully will change, and break the link only).
Moving an object with its related dimension currently expand the dimension as well (hopefully won’t do it either).
Please test the change and share feedback — it helps a lot!

Batch Generation on Gen Ai (text-to-vector) Features
Do you know something that would be cool?
Some script only for testing purposes, or maybe this could be a feature.The script could generate all the 5 levels of Detail of Text-to-Vector
(and/or all levels of any feature that have or will have intensity control)I mean generating 5 copies, each one with the one of the 5 levels of the detail. and keep the other settings as the same for all the generations.
(the same for other gen ai features)I do this manually, but I will be very happy with a feature that does this for me.…

GUIDELINES
Full transform options for GUIDELINES. I want infinite DIAGONALS!
Please and thank you! xoxoTL;DR
We all know math is the basis of all good design work. (Critical for branding) I can't count the number of times I've messed up manual diagonal spacing. It's a sticking point for me, especially when working on deadline.Being able to set up a template of guidelines (in the same way that "workspaces" functions) could be beneficial for different types of jobs.
Other things that would be nice:
-Golden Ratio guideline (also Branding essential)
-Colour of guidelines matching layer colour (much more helpful than…2 votes -

Seed generator for random options
Random in Illustrator is NOT random.
Depending on the values I will always get the same result. Add an seed generator. Best would be to add an option go type in the seed manually, that way I can choose if a want the same randomness or a random randomness.1 vote -

multi layer groups
I would love to group objects while keeping their layer allocation.
Groups should be layer independent to be more flexible than layers, which are uses to organise objects already.3 votes -
can we have a Chinese paragraph arrangement function (Hyphenate) in English Illustrator, which is now only available in Chinese illustrator
as a Chinese English Illustrator user, we are more familiar with English Illustrator interface than Chinese, even though we can read Chinese. It will be really convenient for us to have the hyphenate function, which is now only available in Chinese Illustrator, to be also available in English Illustrator, like Hebrew, Arabic, Dutch etc...
2 votesAs per the comment, these are available by enabling the East Asian options in Text Preferences: Kinsoku Set and Mojikumi Set. Please reply if it solves this for you.

use of Info panel for graph elements
When working with a graph, use the Group Select tool to select one element of the graph. In earlier versions (prior to ~2016 or 2017?), the Info panel displayed the size/position of that element. Why was that feature DROPPED? Please reinstate that bit of code--there is no other way to determine the size of any element (except to copy and paste it, then delete it).
Better yet, if the Transform panel was active for a graph element, it would make it so much easier to control the size of each path. (I'm looking at you, tick marks, which are seemingly…5 votes -

Illustrator Waterfall Charts - support positive & negative values
Currently, when trying to create a waterfall chart in Illustrator, you can't have values go above & below the zero axis. If you try to enter positive and negative values in one line of the data table, you get an error (Can't create the graph. Each stacked column must contain all positive or negative data.).
This is needed by lots of Artworkers, especially in Annual Reports, etc.

Clear guides should delete guides in transparency masks too
Just took me ages to work out why i couldnt remove guides from a file and discovered they existed only within various transparency masks and had to go through each mask individually to remove them. Clear guides feature should remove those too, surely?!

When rotating an object, add a hotkey that allows the user to explicitly enter the rotation angle.
When rotating an object, I can see the rotation angle and I have to struggle to get the rotation to align perfectly to an exact angle. While I can do this with the rotate tool, it's frustrating to see the rotation almost where I need it, but having to undo, select the rotation tool, set the angle, etc.
If there was a hotkey while rotating, like say, Ctrl... a small text box would appear in place of the angle and I could just manually enter the angle with the previous rotation angle as a default, I think that could save…
