1. Find color in artwork

   Sometimes I have a stray color that I cannot find in the artwork. It would be nice if there was a way I could click on the swatch and say find color and it would highlight everything that color was used on.

3. Add Scale to SVG and PDF Export for Screens

   My biggest pain point in production for mobile right now is the inability to scale vector assets in Export for Screens. X-code prefers PDF assets be imported at 1x size. Android Studio prefers that SVG assets be smaller than 200x200 px. When I have large templates of icons or other assets that need to be sized differently for different purposes, it is crippling to have to resize these.

   For example, I have a set of icons that are used for a glyph font. These are all sized at a scale of 1000pt high. In order for me to export this same set as svgs for Android, each image and artboard must then be resized to below 200 px in order to do an export. Not fun when you have 300 to resize.

   Another example is achievement badges where I need to export 1x PDFs or small, medium, and large badges. Again, when you have hundreds of graphics, this is an immense amount of production work that could be saved if Scale were available for vector assets on Export for Screens.

   I know that vector assets are fully scalable and the size of the export should not matter. Unfortunately both iOS and Android dev environments have quirks that favor sized vector graphics.

4. Blend objects aligned to path and keep bounding boxes at ends straight so they don't distort

   Blend objects aligned to path and keep bounding boxes at ends straight so they don't distort. Have to make many long paths of wire shapes and to keep them aligned on the path the first and last keep distorting so I can't edit or reuse for a slightly different curve.

5. More Detail in Font Find/Replace - Include Details to Assist Tracking Down Correct Font

   When working with files that reference missing fonts, sometimes it is necessary to find the exact font but there is little to go on other than the font name displayed. If font information was stored such as version, type of font (TrueType, OpenType, Type-1, etc...), foundry, version, date, etc...it would make it far more efficient to track down the correct font.

   For example, when working with product labels, etchings or logos often it is necessary to use the exact font to maintain consistency in manufactured products. Having little more to go on than a name makes it extremely difficult. This feature would save a lot of time!

   It would be even more helpful if you could find a way to identify a font where information has not been stored yet...but I wouldn't cry over that.

6. Hotkey to exit Type mode

   PLEASE MAKE A "HOTKEY" or keyboard command to EXIT "TYPE MODE."

   ONCE ONE IS IN TYPE MODE, A COMMON ERROR IS TO ACCIDENTALLY TYPE:

   VVVVVVVVVVVVV

   AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

   MMMMMMMMMM

   etc.

   The answer could be as simple as "Simultaneous Spacebar + hotkey letter."

7. Need to select all artboards and resize them at once by entering desired size.

   Need to select and change all artboard size at once. Can we have this feature in Illustrator? Because after design we need to prepare artworks from same file so we need to increase artboard sizes to add crop marks and other details of instructions for printer, It will be easier if we can change this in artboard window or from document setup.

9. Multi panels for "Layer Panel"

   in case of more than 50 layers it difficult to move top layer under button layers. as we need to do scrolling

   Ability to open multi panel can enhance that work flow and make easy to move layer under other layers by moving one layer from first panel into second layer panel.

10. Smart Guides and Snap To Grid mutually exclusive - please support both

    "Smart Guides" and "Snap to Grid" are currently mutually exclusive which is very troublesome. I don't see the immediate connection, even if I want to have my objects snap to a grid I'd still liket to use Smart Guides, especially for creating Squares, Circles and the like.

    Started (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    Beta build now offers a way to have these two work together. This is still WIP and the team really needs your feedback on how it works.

    Please try it — Beta builds are available for your Creative Cloud Desktop app and can be installed together with general builds (the only problem would be default file association — OS can’t tell Beta form GA apart).

11. PDF Comment Tool

    I like to design website visuals in Illustrator and add PDF comments in Acrobat but doing so means I need to re-add all the comments each time I save a new version of the PDF.

    It would be great if there were a commenting tool in Illustrator that would export to PDF comments so I can add notes as I create artwork, rather than going back and doing it after each export.

12. Adobe CC Library Dropdown Categories and Groups

    Adobe CC Library Dropdown Categories and Groups + Backup

    Categories - I work for a large company, and while I LOVE the libraries, I hate scrolling. I'd love to be able to categorize them; for example, "Branding," "Imagery," "Products," "Stock," "Case Studies," "Creative" to cut down on the mega scroll effect.

    Groups - Reiterating what another user said, group folders WITHIN the libraries would be very useful for one-off clients (or product launches) where you need to have lots of information in one library collection.

    Backup - We need to be able to backup these libraries or have history restore points in case the library is accidentally deleted or an admin overrides a linked file.

13. Allow to move panels between displays all at once easily

    When using multiple displays, if I use Illustrator on one screen and move it to the other, my panels like Character, Paragraph, Layers etc. (small windows) don't move with the program to the next display. Even if the program is closed and opened they don't move to the correct screen that the program is now opened at. Please fix this. It's especially frustrating when using Ps, Ai, InD and all of the panels can’t be consolidated for their respected program at the click of a mouse.

14. Select objects in Layers panel by dragging through items (or target or selection markers) with a modifier held

    In older versions of Illustrator you could go to the layer panel and Cmd/Ctrl drag on the circle icons to select multiple objects really fast. Would love to have this back as it wasn't replaced with anything else and a lot of times I need to select objects on the layer panel and not the canvas.

15. Make the new "Properties" panel optional.

    The idea of the properties panel is nice, but it should be customizable. For example, the four pathfinder tools that come up when more than one object is selected aren't the main four that I use, so it would be nice to be able to switch out the default four that pop up.

    It would also be nice if there were a way to not use the new properties panel, and be able to switch in the windows drop down menu to using the old properties panel that is in the top bar across the screen. I don't love the new properties panel from the stand point that it takes away so much of my screen. Most of the time, the entire bottom half of the properties panel is empty. I'd rather just lose a little of the view of my workspace with the thin bar across the top of my screen how it used to be, as opposed to how it is now where I gain just a little more of a view without the bar on the top, but lose so much of the meat of the width of my workspace.

    Maybe I just haven't played around with this enough, but as soon as I saw this is how it worked, and couldn't figure our a way around it, I was instantly frustrated. If I wanted to use this kind of interface, I would just go use sketch or try out XD. But i feel like illustrator should say the way it is. If its not broke, don't fix it.

    Hi,

    If you want to switch the older control panel you can do that in 2 ways:
    1. Go to Window > Control and the control panel will be shown.
    2. Go to Workspaces and switch to Essential Classic, this will also show the Control panel on the top.

    Thanks & Regards

16. Voice activated commands

    What if all your basic commands could be said aloud? For example:
    "File, save, export, save for web, jpg, 72 dpi, save, save to X folder..." or "select same fill color and stroke color, change to PMS246, object ungroup, select tool, select Layer 1, add 2 point white outline"

    Why would this be cool?

    I am the worst at remembering short keys or using short keys and I'm sure not the only one. When software gets updated, sometimes things get moved in menus and that can be frustrating. I can say the commands faster than I can point, click or use the keyboard. Sometimes when I'm in a hurry I get frustrated not being able to click fast enough. I've even been known to say the commands out loud when I am trying to resolve an issue or trying to concentrate.

    I think this could open many doors for individual special needs. If a designer injures their hand, their livelihood can be gone forever. Any verbal commands or even facial/ eye movement adaptations to any software would be greatly beneficial. No one should have their creativity stifled by inability to use to great design tools. Voice commands would be a great place to start.

    I hate to say this but your users are getting older and will be working longer and longer. Years and years of typing and clicking can really be ******* joint and muscles. (Arthritis is a real thing.) It seems that you would want to keep the health of your end user in mind for the investment longevity of your projects.

17. One Tool for vectors illustrators

    Hi,
    it would be wonderful if connectivities in-one tool existing tools:

    1. Curvature tool

    2. Shaper Tool

    3. Pencil Tool

    4. Shape bulider tool

    5. Bulider Shape tool

    Example actions:

    1. Draw a basic shape by hand, eg. A rectangle - function works Shaper Tool and create a regular rectangle with 4 nodes.

    2. Tap cursor anywhere on the one side line, and I add a new node, drag it to modificate line and create curves - function works Curvature tool

    3. On one of the sides of shape between nods, draw zigzag. Draw zigzag starting from a point outside the line of the curve (somewhere on the side of the curve) - work function Shaper Tool and removing the entire section of shape between nods. Create shape open.

    4. tap, and select one of the nodes and draw a new free line shape. In this way, it modifies the shape of freely drawing a native natural new section shape. - Work function Pencil Tool.

    5. The selected shape is in editing mode so it has highlighted nodes, exactly as in the operation of the tools Curvature tool. Select one or more nodes, ie. An oval circle around them, and in doing so reduce the nodes, the nodes in the area of a circle is removed (reduction of nodes), the line is simplified.

    WARNING.
    press ALT - edit handle bezier (direct selections tool)

    WARNING.
    It is very important that the described editing works only for the selected shape. If I'm want edit different shape I need to firstly select it.

    1. If I check several objects can combine shapes or like - tool works Bulider Shape tool.

    Now really, really do the same tool in a mobile application Adobe Draw.

    AND
    it would be ideal if I could quickly edit lines using the tool Width tool...

    Best Regards!

18. In Tablet Mode, we need the use of modifier keys like Shift, Alt, and Control. Can't constrain proportions when resizing w/out keyboard!

    In Tablet Mode, we need the use of modifier keys like Shift, Alt, and Control. Right now, we can't constrain proportions when resizing w/out the Shift key on a keyboard. If we have a floating toolbar of modifier keys like Shift, that problem would be solved. Even better if a gesture could take the place of holding Shift.

19. When a layer is locked don't ask me if I want to unlock it. Instead give me a drop down list of all the layers to choose from

    Usually when pasting something in Illustartor if the layer is locked it means I didn't select the right layer. If I could choose which layer to paste to I wouldn't have to cancel, select the correct layer and paste again

20. Remove limit of 27 spot colors on PDF export

    We have one of the many printers that uses 6 inks to synthesize CMYK and spot colors. It uses internal look up for pantone spots, and these need to be set in Illustrator as spot colors. It's not unreasonable to have more than 27 of these (in this instance, we're creating a colour chart for our / our customer reference). Thanks.
    Please refer to this thread on forums:
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/27-spot-colour-limit/td-p/9471603
