Make it possible to edit user defined swatch libraries
For some reason, once a custom swatch library is defined, we can't edit it. An icon showing a pencil with a line through it indicates that. But why can't we make the swatch library editable (temporarily), e.,g. by alt-clicking the icon, or right mouse button it?
This is so rigid and inconvenient.
Also make it possible to save a swatch group as a new library, in stead of saving all in a newly created library. It's quite impossible to create a library from a subset of swatches currently.

Bulk add graphics to library
Selecting multiple groups of objects and adding to a library adds them all as one giant graphic. Can't we have them added separately? Years of life have been lost adding one graphic at a time to a library.

Allow Illustrator documents to re-link to its shared-for-review Creative Cloud document if the link becomes broken
Sometimes a document that's been shared for review through the Creative Cloud will lose its connection to the local file. Sometimes because you've tried to create a new iteration, renamed the file, or sometimes it just happens for unknown reasons. When this occurs, it would be helpful to be able to reconnect them so that the review process continues with the same link to the end of the project. This would keep the entire history of markups and not cause confusion by sending out a new link in which they cannot access the resolved markups when reviewing the updates. Yes,…

Libraries Keep Freezing when I open a new document
I keep our company swatch colours in the adobe libraries but over the last two months the libraries would freeze where I could scroll through them. I would need to quite illustrator and reopen them to access them again.

Allow adding of Freeform Gradients to CC Library panel
Allow adding of freeform gradients to CC libraries. Very inconvenient to have to re-open legacy files each time I need the gradient. This gradient is used consistently for our brand packaging across different products and designs.

Espacio de trabajo universal y personalizado entre apps de Adobe
Hola Adobe 👋
Soy diseñadora gráfica y trabajo con Illustrator, Photoshop e InDesign a diario. Estas aplicaciones comparten muchos paneles (Capas, Alinear, Color, Transformar, etc.), por lo que me gustaría poder crear un espacio de trabajo personalizado y universal, que se sincronice entre las apps de Creative Cloud.
La idea es simple: si un panel existe en esa app, que se muestre en el lugar donde lo puse; si no, que lo ignore. Pero que respete mi estructura visual y estilo de trabajo, sin tener que volver a crear manualmente el espacio de trabajo en cada aplicación.

Multiple Libraries Open and Docked as panels at the same time
Right now we can only have 1 library open at once in illustrator. Please make it so we can have multiple libraries open at the same time similar to the way we can have multiple swatch libraries open at the same time...

Detailed Cloud Libraries history and version control
We need a way to see the edit history for items in a cloud library, including at a minimum when an asset was updated and who made the change... as well as the ability to restore a specific version.

Share for Review Notifications: comments and updates
It would be amazing if a "notification" could be added to the "Share for Review" feature. I am having to update the link and also send an update email to my clients and collabs. Thank you!!

Space or area to collect ideas, a scrapsheet, like Playbook
Sometimes when creating, brainstorming is a step! So an area for us to put our ideas while working on an idea would be cool. Maybe a tab to place items we could add, like a "shelf" with items we'd like to use on multiple places. I know you have the library right now, but there's a site called Playbook where projects can be organized, it would be great if it was something like this for Adobe rather than a third party.

Share for Review Proof Approval
Adding functionality for "Proof Approval" would be huge! And would allow the process to remain within Adobe as opposed to having to go outside Adobe products. Turning on this functionality when needed, allowing for proof to be sent that can be officially approved within AI that:
a. Doesn't allow the user the ability to download the PDF and steal the artwork.
b. Sends confirmation that the Proof was Approved or Not Approved with feedback. This can help streamline the approval process ensuring everyone is aware when a proof is sent, and status changes (Pending, Approved, Not Approved, etc.).
c. Saves…

Library doesn't fully sync out of Capture
I was told to put my concerns and ideas here although my frustration is mostly with libraries and the capture app capture is super cool for all of its features but the app was created specifically so that you could use those features and the library Assets in other programs my library assets won't save past about 200 and I've already created thousands, inc fun brushes i want to share, teach, but cant save or recreate so now I'm stuck. it's a cool app you should support it better and fix the glitches: export doesn't work, libraries don't work completely…

Invite to edit functionality
On a previous version of Adobe Illustrator, anyone with access to the aic file could invite new members to the document. There has since been an update where only the owner of the file can share the file to new people. Is it possible to implement an 'admin' or 'manger' to each file. Therefore the owner of the document can provide admin rights to other colloborates of the document. Anyone with admin access could then share the aic file.

I DON'T WANT Cloud Files.
I am so sick and tired of having to wade through cloud ****, JUST TO OPEN, SAVE, or otherwise work with files.
I don't need, or want, to save every file on Adobe's servers. It may make lots of sense for some, but not me. Stop making us jump through hoops to deal with local storage.

Allow creative cloud files to be opened 2 times at once like you can with computer files
I commonly open 2 different copies of the same file so I can see how changes I make while zoomed in will effect the artwork zoomed out without having to zoom in and out over and over again, but for some reason you can't do this with cloud files, and that is why I never end up using them. If they just added the ability to open the cloud files like you can with files on your actual computer I would be much more likely to actually use cloud files more consistently

CC Libraries on Illustrator Paste in Place in artboard
Could we get an option to save an artboard together with the group of items selected when we save to Libraries?
I mean instead of modifying the artboard size to fit all elements, libraries would save the size of the original artboard and all the items in it, including the items that bleed outside (as bleed marks).
2 - Would also be super useful to get an option to "paste in place" when pasting an item from the library into an artboard if the target artboard is the same size as the original artboard.
I will try to explain my…

Keep the organizational structure of Libraries the same between Adobe apps
I have put a lot of work organizing my libraries in Photoshop it would be nice if that organization structure would translate across all Adobe apps with libraries. Not have to organize my assets again in every program.
