1. Allow to disable Rich Tool Tips right from the rich tool tips

   'How to hide these popups for tools?' is one of the most common questions I see here and there (the most popular being 'how to show the resizing frame back?').
   The answer is 'disable Show Rich Tool Tips in Preferences > General', but it requires knowledge, and Ai never directs new users there.

   What if we could just CLOSE one or all hints right there, in a hint itself?

2. Relative math operations with defined and mixed values in input fields

   When you have several objects with different parameters in your selection, Illustrator would show nothing in the input field controlling this parameter.
   For example, if you have two paths selected, one having 1 pt stroke weight, and another with 4 pt — Ai would show nothing in Weight in Stroke panel, meaning it’s a 'mixed value'.

   What if we could focus this field, type '+5' in it, and get 1+5=6 for one path and 4+5=9 for the other?

   Why not making it work for similar value as well? Instead of putting the cursor after the, say '2.25 pt' and type '+2' so it goes '2.25 pt+2', when we could just replace it with '+2', with no aiming?

   Take a look at the demo attached.

   Plus, take a look at the request about having more than one math operation possible in input fields:

3. Remove the window below the artboards that reads "Select an artboard with graphics and try Generative Expand to extend the artboard"

   With whatever update came out, there is now a message that reads "Select an artboard with graphics and try Generative Expand to extend the artboard" on the artboards panel. This limits how many artboards you can see, and I am a person who has files with 40+. I tried using the feature to see if it would get rid of the message, but it still sits there. Please make this message removeable so I can get back to a quicker workflow and see all my artboards without having to scroll precisely. Thank you!

4. White Canvas with Artboard Tool

   The Canvas is turning white every time I use the Artboard tool. Please remove this feature and leave the original Canvas colour. I use the Artboard tool very often, and the Canvas is turning white every time, making my screen flash from grey to white. This is bad for the eyes.

   This got solved with enabling the 'Fade region outside Artboard' back in the Artboard Options dialog.

5. An ability to enlarge panels on mouse hover to have larger controls (dynamic and local UI scaling)

   Using a 4k screen I find the palette to be small, and I struggle seeing them detailed especially when it comes to gradients.
   It would be handy to have a feature to enlarge the palette when the mouse hovers on it. Potentially deciding on to which palette activate this. Like for me I'd like to activate it only on the gradient, swatches and colors palette. Maybe a temporary shortcut to press while hovering onto the palette. Thanks.

   Also having a better color picker on the color palette would be nice.

   Thanks.

   The problem got solved with toggling the 'Reduce transparency' option.

9. An option to not highlight the active artboard in Trim View

   It would be great if the Artboard Display Highlight Color could be hidden when in Trim View. So it doesn't interfere with the visual look of the artwork and yet could be larger in the standard display mode to enable easier workflow.

10. Focus the Search field in Preferences (introduced in Beta 29.7.0.60) when the dialog gets opened, and focus the found and highlighted option

    Search in Preferences, originally requested here (http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/42476344) is a welcome feature! However, it works not as it should be, as shown in the GIF attached.

    1. The field should get immediately focused instead of Keyboard Increment field, so we can start searching right away after calling the dialog with Cmd/Ctrk+K
    2. When it finds an option that can be toggled (a checkmark) or focused (a field) — it should focus it, so we can toggle it with s Space or type a new value This makes the whole experience mouse-free for those who are in a hurry (and we are). It doesn’t take away from anybody else, with a pen or a mouse, it just makes it more accessible...

11. Transparency Panel - Mask Mode Overlay

    When you enter the "Mask mode" in the Transparency Panel when adding a mask to an object. The background should switch colors or an outline around the artboard, similar to "isolated mode". To indicate that you're in that mode, right now you can click around thinking you're in that mode and not realize you have to switch back to normal mode by unclicking the mask.

15. Make Select Art button more evident

    I periodically see designers, with serious (albeit cheerful) faces, boldly clicking the 'round button' in Layers to 'select everything on the layer.'

    And while the button indeed 'selects' everything on a layer, it also selects the layer itself — targets it really, for applying a layer-specific appearance.

    Take a look at this GIF attached.
    If I select Layer 2 (with the green squares) like this, and then apply the Round Corners effect, all the new squares in the layer will have round corners.
    Sure, everything is visible in the Appearance palette.
    Sure, everything is written in the pop-up hints.

    The round ones are for appearance. We need to click to the right of the circle instead, where the square markers are drawn — these are there to mark selection... AND allow selection.

    It’s a very common mistake (like confusing windshield wipers and turn signals)...
    And I think I know why it happens. I’m convinced that it is psychologically easier to click a circle — that looks more like a button, — than an empty space where a square appears (when clicked).
    Recently some accessibility changes were introduced into Ai, and now things we can click in most panels gets highlighted slightly on hover — but not these square-to-be spots! Even when there are square markers there!

    So please make these more pronounced.

    I love appearance dearly, but selecting all in a layer / sublayer / group is a far more common procedure users do. And discovering something called 'appearance' was the source of many problems with art’s colors is not a good way to meet this power.

    I have to strain to read the layer descriptions. Since I work a lot in After Effects I have to name all my layers. It would be easier to work if I could just glance over instead of working hard to read the little font sizes. I should note that I have a super high definition screen.

18. Annoying "learn more"

    Your instruction and tutorial always pop up and ask me to "learn more". I know the functions already. It is very annoying and I don't want to use Illustrator anymore if I have any alternative.

    I cannot find how to close the pop-up and it affects my efficiency a lot. Disturb me every 5 min. It is a very very poor UX experience.

20. Background Grid Not Displayed Behind Fully Opaque Objects in Illustrator 30.0

    I am experiencing an issue in Illustrator 30.0 where the background grid does not appear behind any objects that have 100% opacity, regardless of fill or effects. This happens even when Overprint Preview is enabled. This kind of phenomenon did not occur while using 28.x and 29.x series.

    • Illustrator version: 30.0
    • OS: macOS Sequoia (15.3.2)
    • Issue: Any object with 100% opacity completely hides the background grid.
    • Troubleshooting steps attempted:
      1. Switching GPU performance ON/OFF
      2. Using CPU preview
      3. Resetting Illustrator preferences
      4. Switching to Outline view and back
