1. bug: Screen turns black after choosing width tool

   In between bugs I still try to make something in Illustrator, and now this happened:

   1. I hit Shift + W on the keyboard to select the width tool.
   2. Instead of the width tool cursor, the cursor became a black rectangle.
   3. I noticed both the Selection tool and width tool were selected in the tools window.
   4. I dicided to click on an Anchor anyway, and the screen turned black. The video signal went off, monitor went on standby. The HDD/SSD light on the PC was flashing nonstop. PC did not respond to anyting (I think, but I could not see because there was no visual).
   5. Working file was recovered after reboot, that's nice.

2. "Sowing"

   So the name is called "Sowing" for the reason as shown in the picture. The object doesn't necessarily have to have so many "cuts."

   The idea is to make "slices" within a single object, which allows a stroke or other object to over- and underlap an object in a single layer, without having to make extra layers to hide the "threading" object. This will prevent having to cut up, or mask or duplicate objects.

   Basically it's also allowing anchors of the same object to switch between layers.

3. Display the Shape parameters in toolbar regardless of display resolution or monitor size. My 15" MBP does not show H and W 27"iMac does

   My 15" Macbook Pro does not show H and W when a shape is selected. My 27" iMac does. There is enough space to show these parameters so why are they a drop down in that size display?
   I also work in Windows 10 but its a 27" monitor & they are displayed.

5. Metadata on ASE

   For me and many designers, color is an asset with information associated with it that I need to follow this asset as it moves from different design programs. With metadata attached to file, I would be able to utilize the features in InDesign and other programs to auto populate this information into text fields. Additionally if this metadata ASE file was a library shared between many users and the any of the tagged information on a color was changed, this update would shoot out to any documents using this color. It would reduce:
   -errors by relying on one source of truth for all the color information.
   -time spent typing in this information and free up time for design instead of administrative tasks.
   -time spent tracking down where colors were used to update any changes.

6. The ability to save a direct selection

   Sometimes geometric transformations require a complex selection of certain vertices on one or more objects. Losing the selection because of a misclick is so common and frustrating... One should be able to save current selection to recall it if lost. This little buffer can be really very temporary, i.e. stop working if object topology has changed in the meantime. It would already prevent frustration on many occasions.

   Illustrator allows to save, load and managed partial and full  selection with Select > Save / Edit Selection commands.

   UI is archaic, but it does the thing you want.

   Please leave any comments regarding this feature here.

   
   

   As for having a selection operation as an undoable operation — there is a separate feature request for this you can vote for: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/34934953

   This is exactly what Illustrator allows already.

   In fact, it allows two ways you can toggle, using the 'looking glass' icon at the left of the Font Family input: 'Search Entire Font Name' or 'Search First Word only'.

   Perhaps it got changed for you?

   Anyway — if it does not behave like it should — please log a separate bug request about this in the proper forums’ section.

15. Display Tablet : Wacom CINTIQ 22HD VS XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro REVIEW

    Hello everyone, I'm an Illustrator user, I usually use the Adobe Illustrator, Evernote, Dropbox software and tasks. Mostly Illustrator on my display drawing tablet.

    CINTIQ 22HD

    I know there are a lot of people who are looking for Cintiq alternatives as Wacom's tablets are expensive. I had been wanting a Cintiq for years but never really thought they were worth all that money. However, after I had a chance of using Cintiq 22HD for a few days, I came to realize that drawing on a display tablet is far quicker and more enjoyable than doing it on non-display tablets.
    SO, NOW I WANTED A DISPLAY TABLET TOO FOR TWO REASONS:

    1.Drawing on a display tablet was far more enjoyable than drawing with graphic tablets (like my Deco 01).
    It felt like I was actually drawing on paper.

    2.The higher precision and accuracy = I noticed I wasn't using the "undo" on Cintiq 22HD as much = less hours spent per painting.
    CINTIQ 22HD WAS GOOD BUT IS IT WORTH $1600?

    Although the drawing experience was really good (feels like Intuos but more precise!) on Cintiq 22HD, I still didn't think it was worth $1600. It's a 2012 model and the display was nothing spectacular considering the price. If the display was a higher quality and the tablet was slimmer, I would be dreaming of having one myself even at that price point. Anyways, I looked into cintiq alternatives and the closest thing seemed to be XP-Pen's newest model, Artist 22E Pro.

    XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro

    I ordered and had XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro display tablet for a day.
    It's been only a day but I already have a love and hate relationship with it...
    Here are the Pros and Cons

    PRO's:
    1.More affordable than Cintiq 22HD (although it's still not that cheap $899 / $799 until May 31)
    2.Screen temperature stays REALLY COOL (OMG I LOVE) vs Cintiq 22HD gets a little warm
    3.IPS Panel (wide view angles) and anti-glare coating's really good. (Cintiq 22HD's is grainy)
    4.Almost no lagging felt when drawing (14ms = same as Cintiq 22HD)
    5.Slimmer and smaller than Cintiq but has 21.5 inch screen (same as Cintiq 22HD)
    6.Parallax better than or similar to Cintiq 22HD
    7.Pen accuracy, sensitivity on point (except for the area close to the edges)
    8.Easy to use and install
    9.Sharp, good colors
    CON's: [UPDATE: I am told that these two issues are solved with recent XP-Pen drivers update]

    1.Display is not sharp (texts, image edges, lines are soft when they need to be sharp and clear)
    2.Lower pressure sensitivity levels (1%-20%) I feel like are not that accurate. I needed to put a little more force for the nib to register anything and that results in e.g. 20% opacity when I wanted 10%.
    3.Pen Batteries: You need to recharge pens. Not really a huge con for me because they give you two pens.
    4.No tilt on pen: not a big deal for me. Just mentioning for information as some people do care about this function.

    Other notable info:
    1.Color Gamut: standard (advertised as an "amazing" display). It covers 72%~78% sRGB. Just a standard. It's not really a con or a pro I guess.
    2.No pen stand: their site says they give you a pen stand. I only found a pen case.
    3.Adj. buttons on the display are stiff but you don't need to use them often once everything's set.
    4.Something about the way the pen nib works: related to the con I mentioned; I just didn't like the way it felt. The nib's a little bulky and doesn't feel good
    when doing detailed, light strokes. Depending on what kind of drawing you do, you may not even notice this.

    *I wrote no pen calibration in the image but the driver does have it I just missed it. However, that doesn't change my opinion on the lower pen pressure levels!

    SO, MY CONCLUSION IS:

    1.XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro display tablet is a pretty good alternative to a Cintiq with some better aspects (thin bezels, better parallax, 21.5 inch screen etc.)
    2.BUT! There are two major issues that made me return it. The pressure sensitivity was not up to my expectations. Maybe I am just used to Wacom pens but I felt like it's a little awkward when I needed precise strokes for details. Secondly, the display is not sharp (it's too blurry. It could be because of the anti-glare coating).

    Therefore this is a great display tablet for:
    -people who have never experienced higher end Wacom tablets
    -hobbyists artists
    -people who have not had good quality IPS monitors
    -people looking for a Cintiq-like display without breaking their bank

    Wouldn't recommend it to:
    -people who have used Wacom tablets (Intuos and above) and are used to them
    -professional users / serious artists

    *Note: if you intend to use two tablets from two different brands (e.g. Wacom Intuos and a XP-Pen display tablet) on one PC, keep in mind that there can be only ONE installed driver. You need to uninstall Wacom driver if you are using the XP-Pen tablet and vice versa.

17. Ability to Set Scratch Disks on Startup

    Our users need to change their Scratch Disk settings from the default Startup to a different drive in order for Illustrator to work correctly in our environment. This is more problematic now since our Mac Pro's have small SSDs. The fact that users have to launch Illustrator, navigate to preferences, change this setting, and then relaunch Illustrator before the Scratch Disk settings take effect is irritating. Unfortunately, in our environment this setting does not stick, so every time our users log in to a different computer they need to make this change.

    Please add a feature, similar to Photoshop's OPT + CMD key sequence, that will allow users to pick a scratch disk location on startup.

18. Allow Save Options to be Skipped

    Personally, I'd like to skip the extra dialog after I name my file and click the Save button.

    If I actually want to alter any of the settings, I'd prefer to do it by actively clicking an [Format] Options button in the Save dialog (opening a new dialog) rather than after already naming the file and clicking the Save button.

    Sometimes performance is slow enough that it takes some time for the next dialog to even show, which breaks my workflow as I move on to other tasks in other apps, thinking my file is safely saved already (I did name it and click the Save button after all).

    From a UX perspective, once the Save button is clicked/tapped, the file should immediately be written to disk, because that's the intent behind the user activating that button.

19. Allow text on linked files to be editable (just as it happens in embed)

    When I embed a PSD file into Illustrator, it preserves the layers and also the text boxes, allowing me to edit the text. However, if the file is liked, Illustrator converts all text to pixels, which can cause various problems when printing. It would be great to be able to keep the text as vectors, even if not editable. But rasterizing all text just because the file is liked is a big problem.

20. Correctly include vector objects from previous Illustrator version files

    A customer file created in CC 15 MAC and (according to tech support) using a CS/3 template does not open properly in CC 18. a group of objects appear as a missing linked file rather that the actual objects. However CS/5 opens the file and placed the vector objects inside a clip mask properly, allowing access to the vector path information. Why would CC18 not have the same capability? Worse, why would it confuse the issue stating a linked file is missing? The vector info is obviously in the file (since it appears in CS/3 and CS/5, get that info into CC18.

    I'm sure this is going to be a recurring problem with customers sending older files to me.

    Get CC18 to maximize the object info it extracts from older files.
