Drop color
Definitely miss adobe draw.
I’d love to see it be easy to drop in colors and for there to be brushes like in adobe draw.
Also the brush/ pencil seem really glitchy and not like a natural gesture1 vote -
Lamé / Squircle rounded corners
It would be great to add a way to create Lamé curved corners with rounded corners. (See the section "Optical corner rounding" in https://medium.muz.li/optical-effects-9fca82b4cd9a for an example of this.) Right now, one can make geometric round corners in Adobe Illustrator (and InDesign), but it would add greater flexibility to designs to use Lamé curves to create these more nuanced curves.

Change "Export For Screens" Save Path Default To File Folder
If I go to File > Export > Export For Screens the default save path points to the last folder I used. What we as users are expecting is the default path to be equal to the same folder as the Illustrator file is currently located in.
If you feel this should not be the default at least give us a way to change this in the AI Preferences. Thanks!

Alternative 'Object width/height' and gap options under Effect > Transform > Move
A couple of checkboxes in that panel for the dynamic size of the object could be handy. A gap value would also be great for the static gaps around multiplied objects. I've experienced 2 similar cases where that option could save me time:
1) Create an object and use 'Effect > Transform' panel to create copies, giving a horizontal or vertical move value. Then edit the object and change its bounding box. They either overlap or the gap between them widens.
2) Create the left half of a graphic you want dynamically be mirrored onto the right side. To use…

Allow tools to be constrained when using Perspective Grid with a key held
I would like perspective grid snapping for either the brush and/or the pen tool.
Although shapes can snap to perspective this is difficult to line up intersections and feels unintuitive to those of us used to lining up a ruler on pencil and paper.
In my mind the snapping would work similar to holding down Shift to snap to 45 degree direction, but instead when you hold down which ever buttons enable the perspective snapping, the drawing tool moves in the perspective direction closest to how you move the cursor.2 votes -
pencil tool - enable keep selection shortcut
A shortcut to enable or disable "keep selection" for the pencil tool. Now it is quite laborious to open each time the tool option window and check "keep selection".

Hotkeys for next/previous appearance item
Appearance is great but can be better.
To select a fill below current one you have to open palette and click the item you want to change. If there would be a hotkeys for selecting next appearance item above/below (like Photoshop has for navigating Layers) this would boost keyboard freaks like me.17 votes -
Direct Selection Tool to select only points
When using the Direct Selection Tool to move an anchor point IT SHOULD JUST MOVE THAT POINT without having to click on the point first. If I wanted to move the whole object I wouldn't be using the Direct Selection Tool, WOULD I?

All creative cloud document preview when applications are not running
Sorry for my Tarzan's english. On Mac Big Sur I'm suffering a lot because it's impossible to see documents preview with space bar when a file is selected. I need this feature with Illustrator and InDesign! Thank you. BTW: Art View doesn't works anymore.

Export as DXF has been removed since the latest update.
This option is essential at our workplace.Is there a reason why it was removed?

Please comment if these are missing for you.

Allow to change the UI language inside the program
Add language option inside the program, instead of using system standard language. And can't use Creative Cloud application. My school have already application from Adobe which is install before hand. And applications has not been added to the list in Creative Cloud, there for I can't edit language.
Just add option to change language inside the program.

All Adobe apps - New Document Page (UI)
Although Adobe aims to keep their user interface simple and efficient, the current <New Document Page> lacks of readability for its users. It's too dark and this makes it harder to read what symbols stand for. I think Adobe should;
1) Use larger icons on this interface.
2) Make the icons relatable for the name of the products (iPhone, etc.)
3) Add color(s) on this design.1 vote -
Highlight to reveal objects that have rotation
Selection highlights used to be jagged or stepped in appearance if a slight angle was present in an object or text. Now it is impossible to see if an object or text is at zero degrees of rotation unless you examine the transform properties panel.
I'd like the ability to highlight any object that has rotation other than zero degrees to enable an accurate artwork environment.

Suchen und finden option
Ich wünsche mir auf dem i Pad die Funktion suchen und finden. Nach Aussehen, Flächenfarbe, Kontur etc. die gibt es auch auf der Desktop Version und es ist sehr hilfreich um mehrere gleiche Formen farbig zu verändern.
