Bring back spacebar 'move' functionality when 'alt/option' is pressed (to access Anchor Point tool) while using Pen Tool
I realize this is a very specific request for a small piece of functionality that was probably never very popular, but it's part of a workflow I got used to using for years, and since upgrading to CC, it no longer works.
When creating a new path with the Pen tool, using the spacebar enables you to move the anchor point you've just created (before you release the click). Also, the Anchor Point tool allows you to do the same when you click on a point and drag the handles out.
My issue is that the Anchor Point tool doesn't…
4 votesAs per comment.
You have to release the Option/Alt key first after dragging out the handles, and then start holding Spacebar to reposition the point.

Shortcut Customization like Corel
Time Saving Shortcut Customization like Corel. There are so many extra steps you have to take instead of being able to create your own shortcut keys. Align/Distribute is just one of many.

Eliminate the Adobe Search Pane in the top right of illustrator
Adobe does not seem to be able to fix the problem of Adobe search being selected by default when a file is opened. I use a master layout page & am constantly pasting art I have copied to the pasteboard into the stupid, virtually useless Adobe search window. It immediately hangs Illustrator which eventually crashes.
This bug is ridiculously enraging. I cannot believe Adobe has not addressed this. It can't just be me having this issue
6 votesThe search bar in the top right corner is gone and is replaced with a button with a magnifier icon — it now calls the new Discover window.
Please check how you like it now and reply back. -
Paste Remembers Layers: Keyboard Shortcut and Visual Indicator
I would like to see a toggle option for "Paste Remembers Layers" I switch frequently between having it on and off and it would be nice to have a visual cue - and toggle button - to facilitate easier working between modes.

Group Selection Tool shortcut on Windows
On my Mac the number 3 is a shortcut for Group Selection Tool. I love this feature and use it all the time, but have noticed that it does not work on my Windows PC. I don't know if this is just my computer, or every Windows PC... Would love to have this fixed.

Introduce reset option for shear/rotation/scaling
Currently, having used the Shear or Scaling tool on an object cannot be undone - except by undoing ANY previous changes to a document, plus the document may not have been closed and reopened, thereby losing the undo stack.
I'd like to suggest to add a Reset Object option to AI, allowing to reset an object's shear, rotation and scaling attributes to their original values at the time that object was created.
The suggested Reset Object option should open a confirmation dialog containing three checkboxes for the user to check:
Reset the following object attributes:
□ rotation
□ scaling
□…21 votes -
Have an 'Expand' button in the Image Trace panel
It's a pretty crazy change to remove it...
Why have it tucked away in the menus ?!8 votes -
Object, Expand — Should be in the right click context menu. Also, the operation should be more robust.
Object, Expand — Should be in the right click context menu. Also, the operation should be more robust. I expand things all the time.
I almost always want compound paths instead of groups of compound paths. So, "Outlining Text" is really just redundant and still no option for compound path from the operation. AI should influence people to be more efficient. An unnecessary amount of objects is unnecessary, especially with AI's ability to quickly isolate objects.

Asset name focus after dragging asset to cc library panel
I create a lot of Creative Cloud library assets, usually by dragging vectors from my canvas directly onto the Libraries panel. I like to immediately name my assets, so it would be a huge time-saver if, once an asset had been successfully dragged, the "name" field got focus. As is, I need to mouse over to the panel and double-click to rename.

Open dialogs on top of window in windowed mode
When working with multiple displays, dialogs (like saving, etc.) open on the display with the dock.
This does not work well in windowed mode when the window is on the other display. It is not always obvious whether the dialog actually opens because it is often hidden behind other things on the main display. Because you can't interact with the document until the dialog is dismissed, it can feel like Illustrator has frozen.
Is there a way to open the dialogs on top of the active window instead? This would place them in context and they would not get lost.…

Scale the space between objects
The ability to move objects in uniform space, similar to how the bounding box works when you select multiple objects and then scale them larger or smaller, if there was way that when you scaled the bounding box bigger the objects maintained their current size but moved farther from each other.
I notice there are times when I have objects on the page and I need to move them apart uniformly based on spacing or move them closer to each other.5 votes -
The "Align" tool doesn't align
So the align tools is organized like this:
Align Objects:
Vertical alignment tools Horizontal alignment toolsDistribute Objects:
Horizontal distrib. tools Vertical distrib. toolsIt confuses me each time. Why aren't the vertical tools both on the left, and both the horizontal tools on the right? Each time I use it I have to stop for a second and think about it before jumping horizontally to the tool I actually want. Please put the vertical alignment and distribution tools on the left, and the horizontal alignment and distribution tools on the right!

Anchor point smart delete
Deleting an anchor point by default break up the shape of the stroke.
What about smart delete, that automatically adjust nearest handles to save the shape of the stroke.
I dream about it from the cs3 version :)16 votes -
Keep object selected with switching from Shaper Tool to Smooth Tool.
It feels redundant to re-select object (line, shape, etc) when switching to or selecting the smooth tool. This is especially disruptive because you can't select the item when using the smooth tool. It doesn't seem to be consistent for other experiences in the program.
5 votesNot sure if I get it.
Are you sure you mean Shaper tool, not Shape Builder tool?
Because Shaper tool does not make a selection of the drawn shapes. Shaper Builder though — does.
How do you switch to the Smooth tool after using the other one?
By default Smooth tool is placed in the same tool slot as the Shaper (not Shape Builder), and once you click-and-hold the tool slot to access hidden Smooth tool — indeed, the selection gets dropped.
Can someone here record a short video of the issue?

Kontour in Adobe Draw
Hello,
it would be great if you could draw contours in Adobe Draw. If I draw a picture with a black contour in Draw, it is always a closed sharpe. A Kontour (as in Illustrator) would simplify later editing in Illustrator many times over.
Many Thanks
