  2. Recolour artwork which can recolour a symbol instance

    Find myself using the recolour Artwork panel a lot these days - especially when iterating with logo colours. What would be brilliant is if we could click a symbol and recolour just that instance (without it affecting the master symbol) using the Recolour Artwork panel. Having to use the direct selection to select individual shapes tool is pretty tedious. I have found a workaround whereby you can unlink the symbol and then create another one and use the Replace Symbol feature - though this isn't great when you then need to adjust the shape as all instances aren't linked together.

  3. The ability to add CSS code from the Generator to CC libraries

    Hi there, I wanted to put in a feature request that would allow a designer to add CSS code from the generator to be added to CC libraries as a text file.

    As a designer, I create elements for our dev team and they are able to take the CSS code I generate from my designs and integrate it into another product for web development. But it would be good to give them a CSS library folder where they can access the code for the designs. At the moment in my testing, it only creates a graphic of the text,…

  4. Copy Gradient properties

    Sometimes I need to add new objects with gradient fill to my design and keep gradient annotators in the same position as another existing object.
    It would be great if a function were added that allowed copying the gradient fill properties from one object to another, keeping the gradient annotators in the same position.
    On the other hand, when I add a gradient outline to an object with gradient fill, the gradient annotators do not match between the fill and the outline. This difference is more evident the thicker the contour. Adding the option to keep outline gradient annotators in…

  5. Overprint black: ignore groups

    This may be brought up elsewhere, but I've tried to give it a clear title.

    Currently, when setting overprint to 100k strokes (for example), Illustrator may not display/apply the overprint for grouped objects, making the user have to find the erroneous objects, then ungroup them.

    Overprint slows Ai down a lot, making this task a real headache, so it'd be lovely if this were sorted in the menu.

  6. Ability to add effects in Illustrator actions

    It would greatly enhance the performance of Illustrator actions if it was possible to add features such as effects to an action. Keep all settings stored and without having to see the dialogue box for the captured effect when played back in the future.

    For example, including a 3D Rotate effect from Effects> 3D> Rotate... and capture all of the settings in that dialogue box within the action whilst recording.

    Thank you!

  7. Multipage PDF export in the Asset Export Panel

    The Asset Export panel is really great and you can export Artboards as PDF but each artboard is a PDF file.

    It will be so great to add a checkbox to export the selected Artboards as a unique Multipage PDF.
    Currently you can export in PDF using Save as… PDF, you have to enter manually the pages ranges and it's not memorized for the next export like in Export for Screens (Asset Export panel).

  8. vecteurs

    Bonjour, quand on souhaite étirer un vecteur pour la deuxième fois sur l'une des deux poignées avec l 'outil sélection directe afin d' étirer l' ensemble des 2 vecteurs (égalité des 2 longueurs de vecteurs) ce n'est pas possible, on est obligé de détruire le vecteur en repassant par l'outil point d'encrage.
    Pourriez-vous faire un raccourci clavier pour éviter ce problème ?
    merci

  9. Ability to reset rulers' origin to upper left in actions

    Ability to reset origin to upper left in actions. Currently done manually by clicking on the rulers, but would be good to be able to include that in an action.

  10. MAJOR PROBLEMS!! Cache/Scratch NOT assigning to my selected Drives

    No matter how many times I un-install and re-install Illustrator, the program WILL NOT ACCEPT when I select a destination to my specific and dedicated Cache/Scratch SSD. I have a permanent studio setup with the latest MacBook Pro 64GB of RAM.. Everything was custom built the best it could be in April of 2020. The second I open Adobe Illustrator, my Available RAM goes from around 55GB to 124MB?!!!!!!! I know it's a RAM heavy program but that is insanity. Nothing is that heavy or works like that. Its forcing a notice to pop up from my Mac saying that…

  14. Align to Artboard is set as default

    Align to Artboard is automatically set to default, even after changing the toggle to Align to Selection.

    It used to work that whichever you selected, that selection would remain. But now, it always switches back to Align to Artboard. Very frustrating.

  15. Allow pattern scale and position to be locked to objects...

    I know that there is a setting when moving and scaling to apply the translations to patterns or not - but I'd like to be able to define that setting on an object-by-object basis.

    Can we have a PNG export tool similar to the one in desktop AI? I use it a lot for proofing, web stores etc... color depth, pixel dimensions and transparency?

    Like the old “save for web” tool.

  18. Menu View - New View - Rotate View

    Hi,

    If the option of rotating Artboard is too difficult in Illustrator, maybe it is easier to create "rotated views"?

    When working with packaging, the inability to rotate the view of the packaging walls while working in one document is really a prehistory of creative work. In a professional program, this must be resolved by the Adobe Customer Support Team.

    Thank you everyone for the current effort.
    Best Regards

  19. Maintain Word style

    When I paste an italicized Word font into the Illustrator, it becomes plain text.

    I'd like to see Adobe improve this feature so that you can "copy and paste" while maintaining Word's italics and other styles.

  20. Please make link addresses flow in Illustrator's Links palette if the palette is too narrow

    Please make link addresses flow in Illustrator's Links palette so that a placed image whose path is lengthy doesn't force the palette to expand (endlessly) to the right, forcing palettes joined to its right off the screen. It's disruptive to have to resize palettes when an image is placed. Heaven help us when it's an image from Adobe Stock in the Library!

    I've posted this request for at least two or three years now. I can hardly imagine I'm the only one with any distaste for the behavior.
