1. Add custom AI templates to the CC library

   Add custom AI templates to the CC library. The functionality is already programed for Adobe Stock. Allow the user to add custom templates to their libraries. Enable the bulk import of .ait files.

   I noticed on another thread requesting Cloud files to show in libraries menu. That or create another menu that is for the files similar to how the libraries function. Whatever is easier.

2. Hot key to cycle through objects when many are close together or stacked and you select one of them...

   When zoomed out, or there are many objects in the same area, it would be nice if I could select one, and then hit a hot-key to cycle between other objects that are nearby, or behind the selected object. Right now, I have to lock or hide the selected object to be able to select another one that is very close or behind it.

3. Please make color control a **** of a lot more intuitive

   Hi team,

   I am familiar with InDesign and Photoshop. I am really trying to use illustrator on a project. I am fairly new to illustrator and am using the latest version as of 10/30/2018. I have to say the way you use and set colors in Indesign is either horribly broken (i.e., Bug) or it is not at all intuitive or similar to other Adobe tools. For example, I want to create a color gradient swatch that is applied to an image and then alter the color gradient and see how it looks. Seems simple - but I have been working to try and do this for a day now and it seems to be impossible to change a color swatch once it has been created.

   Sometimes I the color gradient window is locked - sometimes not - there seems to be no logic or reason why and no way to unlock the gradient editor. I create a new gradient swatch and can't edit it. I can create a copy of an existing swatch and can't seem to reliably edit that either.

   You have no idea how NON INTUITIVE your color editing mechanism is for a new user. I have now formed the opinion that it can't be that hard - so I assume it is a bug. If it is not a bug PLEASE give some indication SOMEWHERE that the color editor is locked or not and provide a mechanism for unlocking it that is obvious. ARRRGGHHHH

4. Illustrator Actions switching document tabs

   I have two document templates open. I would love to be able to use the Actions to record my action of switching tabs and continuing my actions on the second document. I know the keyboard shortcuts for switching tabs, but I can't record that action in Actions panel.

5. Panel undocking delay, PLEASE

   There should be a delay to undock panels. When I click a panel icon and accidentally perform an imperceptible drag (like, clicking quickly and not even sensing that the pointer has slipped a millimeter on the icon), the panel immediately undocks, and this happens all the time (and did not happen in previous versions of Illustrator -- WHY the change???).

   There must be a delay before the panel actually undocks. UI design 101, if you ask me.

6. More toggle buttons in top row / panel full of indicators

   You know, AI has a lot of options that can be turned on and off.
   And some of them switched on and off quite often: Snap to Grid, to Point, to Glyph, to Pixel... Guides, Smart Guides, Edges (can be both locked and / or hidden), Artboard Edges, Corner Widgets, Bounding Box...

   Of course, all of them can be accessed via View menu, but you just don't see them there! Users need no only SWITCH them, but KNOW what current state is.

   Are my guides are turned off or I've deleted them or moved occasionally?
   I want to draw a complex thing — is my grid's snap is turned on or I need to do it before I start?
   And so on.

   What about Use Preview Bounds? Hidden in Preferences.
   What about, Transform Pattern Tiles?
   Scale Strokes and Effects and Scale Strokes are duplicated in Transform, but that’s it.

   So we need indicator switches.
   And ideally we should choose ourselves which buttons we want to put there.

   You've started understanding it, when added these to Properties panel.
   But you take them away from those who don't use this panel.

   And yet you have a perfect place for these switches, in fact you already sort of using this place! It's right next to the rocket GPU icon.
   Put grid-snaps-widgets-indicators there, so we can always know what our current useful limitations are.

   Sure, this would make it seem like it’s an app level thing... at the same time we have Control panel and it’s above documents’ tabs anyway.
   Yes, you can make it a separate horizontal panel, but it will eat up the vertical space... you can put it in Control, but it’s full and we can’t make one sections of it to take priority over others.

   Still we need it!

7. Allow adding Patterns and Gradient swatches to Color Groups

   Expanding on the existing request for gradient swatch support in color groups... We need groups that support all swatch types. I understand the purpose of Color Groups but the intuitive way to use these folders is as a generic "Swatch Group", without limitation to swatch type in order that we can organize assets appropriately within a project.

   My suggestion is either to allow gradient and pattern swatches to be added to a Color Groups or add a new super group type that can contain any swatch type and color groups as well.

   Groups would be organized in rows: color, gradients, patterns
   In order that it's easy to discern between types.

   Would be ideal also if these sets:
   - are CC Library compatible
   - can be exported as swatch files

   And where:
   - exported swatch files can be imported as a group (as opposed to a discrete swatch palette)
   - exported swatch files can be dynamically linked (to allow one master swatch file to serve many working files)

   Thanks!

   The 29.1 general release now allows to add gradient and pattern swatches into color groups.

10. 3 points arc creation tool (as a live shape)

    Arcs and 'pie' shapes created from the center point and specifying the start and end angles that remain 'live' after creation.
    Same as in CorelDraw!... been using Illustrator for 15 years had to revert to Corel for this feature.

11. Remove background/ make background transparent in images

    It would be really great if we can provide a feature to remove background and make objects transparent within Illustrator. There are users who import pictures in Illustrator but in order to make the background transparent, they have to use other application and, image trace would be complicated.

12. Export Multiple PDF Presets (at the same time!) in "Export for Screens" Menu

    Export Multiple PDF Presets (at the same time!) in "Export for Screens" Menu

    At our design and print shop, when exporting projects, we use a number of PDF (and image) presets to create print ready files, proofs, and web files.

    The Export for Screens feature will not allow us to export multiple PDF Presets (i.e. export print ready PDFs at the same time as smallest file size PDFs).

13. Moving Artboards and Locked Layers

    The latest CC updates' new feature allows locked/hidden layers to move when you move an artboard. This doesn't make sense since locked should mean locked. I am running into problems now because my company uses a lot of artboards to make print-production files, and sometimes you need to re-arrange the artboards while working on the file.
    There should be a way to turn this feature on or off. Such as "keep locked/hidden layers locked when moving/duplicating artboards, or allow locked and hidden elements to move when artboard moves"

    As you probably know, Illustrator today allows to change this behavior with a dedicated option in Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display section.

    However, it’s not that accessible, especially when you are already move and copy your artboards.

    If you wish this option to be more exposed, consider upvoting this request: Display Move Locked and Hidden Artwork with Artboard option in Control panel and Properties while using Artboard tool / mode

14. "Place... Show Import Options" check box to be Persistent

    When placing a multi page PDF without checking "Show Import Options", Illustrator will almost never place the first page of the PDF document. It more often places the second page, or the last. This is a big problem for us. We are tired of doing the wrong layout over & over. I would recommend that "Show Import Options" checkbox be persistent, and fix the bug that makes Illustrator NOT place the first page of a multi page PDF document if the "Show Import Options" check box is not selected.

16. Allow a new feature to resize workspace so the page doesn't get hidden behind the dock

    Several of us on Adobe Forums experience the same issue for many years. Often times the workspace window gets hidden behind the dock, or even below the visible area of the monitor, there is currently no way to adjust this. I am trying to resize the window of my current workspace and I cannot. Bottom right corner not visible. It's a shame that after 18 years of using this application we still have basic issues like this. Please fix this as soon as possible. Thank you so much.

17. Hide or gray out panels on second screen, if InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator etc. is in background / currently not in use.

    When I am working with 2 or 3 or more Adobe Programs at same time, I have all the panels from all the programms on a second screen. If just one programm is open, then it is fine. But if there are more Adobe Programs running like Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign and so on at same time, the screen is full of panels. There are no way to distinguish which panel belongs to which program. That disturbs the workflow. Back in the time of Windows XP and CS products, the panels of the Programs that were not currently used were grayed out.

20. Add ability to apply gradient to text without using new fill

    AI allows to make live text colored with gradient only by applying new fill to a text. This knowledge often comes occasionally, when users finally got into Appearance. AI just doesn't says it't wrong, shows no hint, does nothing when people try to apply gradient as they do for everything else.

    Meantime, each symbol within text can have their own fill.
    And when you apply gradient with a drag to an ungrouped set of path objects, AI applies gradient to all of them, placing each gradient into right position.

    Thus I just don't understand, why AI still doesn't allow to apply gradient to each symbol within text the same way? So each one of them will have copy of applied gradient, automatically placed in correct position.
    Continuing, when two symbols with same gradient are adjacent, their will share center and edge of this gradient.

    Just imagine how cool it would be to select three letters inside text and make them gradient when other letters will be colored differently, while text is still live?
