1. 2018CC version Preferences - Units go back to "points"

   Preferences Units go back to "points" even after I change it to "millimetres" on 2018CC version. I go to Units (no document open) and change from default POINTS to "mm". When I open a new document it is reading POINTS again!

2. Password protect in layers

   I am looking for an option in the Adobe Illustrator to have the layers locked with a password. so i can send the source file to the other users only to modify what they have to and not touch my content.

3. Rearrange only Selected artboards

   Currently I can only "Rearrange All Artboards".

   But I just selected only some artboards in my document and I want to rearrange only selected items. For example, increase spacing between them.

4. Add ability to rebind artboard names to their numbers

   In my work I add and delete artboards during work.
   When artboard is created, it's given a name, corresponding it's number.
   When custom artboard is deleted, numbers of next artboards are shifted (it's OK), but names stay the same.

   So when job is done, I can have something like this:
   1. Artboard 6
   2. Artboard 8
   3. Artboard 9
   4. Artboard 10
   5. Artboard 12
   and so forth

   Since the last number is almost as noticeable as first one, it's hard to pick up correct ones for export.
   I have a script written to fix this, which renames artboards to correspond their numbers, but it causes problem:
   When these artboards are exported, they automatically get their number at the end of file names, like this:
   [filename]-23.tif
   But if a script renames them, AI starts thinking about them as custom names, and files looks like this:
   [filename]-Artboard 22.tif

   And since I have other batch routines to work with specific filenames, I could have used a command that rebinds names to numbers without messing up export filename.

   When artboard is created, it's given a name, corresponding it's number.
   When custom artboard is deleted, numbers of next artboards are shifted (it's OK), but names stay the same.

5. Can we rename multiple layers in one go?

   For example, we select 10 different layers, we right click and select "rename layer(s)" and then a prompt comes up where we type the name we want to assign to all the selected layers.

6. Make option for new artboards to track their names based on existing artboards

   Create 2 artboards.
   Delete second one.
   Create new artboard—the name will be 'Artboard 3'.

   This is very-very inconvenient most of the times.
   Make it behave as Layers behave both in PS and AI!
   New artboard should check the stack and increment it's name properly.

7. New artboard default to spacing set in Rearrange artboard panel

   It would be useful if when you create a new artboard that the spacing between it and the previous one reflects the spacing you have defined in the 're-arrange artboards' panel.

   Currently it defaults to something around 7/8mm which is annoying when you have artwork that spills over, as moving the artboard drags the artwork with it. I know you can turn that feature off, but the spacing defaulting to what you've already defined would still be very useful.

8. Advanced Rename Tools for Artboards with Find & Replace

   Would love to have a feature that allows a mass-rename feature to artboards the same way you can rename files in Mac OS: Add Text, Replace Text, Format. As a designer who exports many artboards for the web and is constantly renaming file version numbers for easy export - this would be a dream!

9. Allow to change color & width of border / edges for artboards (all and active)

   Sometimes when I am using black colour I cant see properly my artboard size so I have work with the guides instead of using the change artboard colour option so it gets annoying. If there were an artboard frame colour option it would be easier to compare my design w.r.t. the artboard

10. Paste on selected Artboards

    The user should be able to paste on selected artboards. Currently we have to paste on all of them or one of them. With the advent of many more artboards, the user has to spend a lot of time pasting on each artboard.

    Started (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    The latest Beta Build 29.5.35 now allows to Paste on Selected Artboards.

    1. Copy the artwork from the source artboard.

    2. Open the Artboards panel or select the Artboard tool. Then, select the target artboards.

    3. Go to the Edit menu and select a paste option (Paste in Place, Paste in Front, or Paste in Back) to position the artwork as needed. Alternatively, right-click the selected Artboard to access the paste options directly.

    Shortcuts are also available.

    Try it please and share your feedback!

11. Real-time file collaborative editing, with multiple users at once

    I would suggest that Illustrator can open a file on several devices, perhaps 2 or 3 max. and allow a team of designers to work and brainstorm on the same file at the same time as an online service from Adobe.
    This can be used for other adobe design programs as well such as Photoshop.

12. Add a button to save document presets like Photoshop has

    Photoshop has a button to save presets when you create a new document. I love that feature makes my job easier, I wish Illustrator had that same button instead of having to save the files as templates. So much simpler and faster with the button right there.

    A dedicated Save Document Preset button is available in starting with build 28.7, when using modern File New interface.

    If you wish to also have a similar button into the legacy dialog, please upvote this request.

13. Preview Mode

    Like InDesign, incorporate a preview mode to show only the content inside of the artboard to see the final preview.

14. Properties Panel Lack of alignment on single object

    Hello the new properties panel is good however if you select a single object there is no option to align that object, if you select more than one it comes up...

    THis would be very handy on a single object

    Hi Everyone,

    Thanks for this feedback. This has been avialble since June 2020 release (version 24.2). Further, when you’ll select a single object/group, Align To setting will default to Align To Artboard.

    Please update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

    Thank you for all the feedback.

15. Add features to the Rearrange Artboards dialog

    I create a lot of new artboards ( 1 for each screen I am designing). Since Illustrator always puts new artboards at the right of the current top row on the workspace (regardless of the order specified for rearranging artboards), I often have to use the Rearrange Artboards command to make more space for the next artboard. The more artboards in the file, the more often I have to rearrange artboards.

    It would be great if I could tell Illustrator to:

    1. Add new artboards at the location indicated by following the layout pattern in the Rearrange Artboards dialog, with an option to 'wrap' when you get to the edge of the workspace.

    2. Align the group of rearranged artboards in the workspace after a rearrangement. The choices should be

    • Centered (as happens now), and
    • Top Left (which leaves the maximum space for adding new artboards without having to rearrange them.

    See the attached file for how the updated Rearrange Artboards dialog might look.
    Thx!

17. Ability to change the color of individual guidelines

    I use templates with several close guides. When zoomed in its sometimes difficult to tell which guide I'm at. If the Make Guides selection could have an additional drop down with a choice of 3 or 4 colors, if would help prevent mistakes.

18. Make an option to disable auto-selection of artboards, when clicked inside

    AI now selects artboard whenever mouse is clicked within in (with any tool). While it's a great general behaviour, I'd like to be able to disable it.

    I have to work with overlapping artboards (which, by the way, sometimes prevent AI from correctly selecting the artboard clicked—it depends on artboards' order). When object is copied, AI remembers it's coordinates. Then, when I go to the object I need to place my copied art over and press Ctrl+F, AI pastes the object in the same coordinates. Sounds OK, but when I clicked that underlying object, AI moved the focus from initial artboard to the one where said object is placed! So I often have to undo it and jiggle with false click to keep selection I want AND select proper artboard.

    Since I don't have to always set the focus every artboard I click when I don't need it, I request an option to disable this autoselection.

19. Show how many artboards are selected

    Since we can have multiple artboards selected and this selection isn't very noticeable (which should be fixed too), why not to show how many artboards are selected?
    Just say how many in empty 'Name:' field, since it shows nothing when more is one artboard is selected, in brackets or different color.
