  1. Make it easier as a new user to fill a shape

    There's no fill or paintbucket tool. For new users this is really yucky. I am trying to use the paintbrush tool and I keep selecting a fill color since that is the only thing I can find that has anything to do with filling but as soon as I go to draw with the paintbrush the fill color I selected vanishes and is replaced with that no fill icon. It doesn't make any sense to me and is really hard to use. Why not make your interface more intuitive for these most common things people would want to do right…

  2. Why doesn't Redo command work on transform operations?

    I did a shear operation on an object and wanted to repeat it on another. Redo doesn't work on this type of operation. It took me some searching to find out that Transform operations had their special Redo, called Repeat transform. Why can't it use Redo like any other command on any other software? You can maintain the Repeat transform command for people who are accustomed to it, but why impose special redo's for each different command?

  3. Please allow an option to disable to home screen.

    It's annoying to have this thing pop up every single time you close a document. In every app. Give us an option to turn it off.

  4. 'Units' dropdowns

    Add 'units' dropdown to transform panel so you don't have to go to preferences to change them. This also separates the input box from the dialogue so its easier to type and tab through modifying dimensions.

    You can press Command+Option+Shift+U (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+U) to cycle through all measurement units.

    Also, type whatever unit in a value field to force Illustrator to recalculate the values into default units.
