Regarding the selection of E-mode
When using the group selection tool to select objects within a group, pressing "E" can select the objects, but in the "selection tool" state, pressing "ctrl+alt" switches to the "group selection tool", and pressing "E" cannot select objects within the group.

OKHSL / OKLCH Color Models Support
The HSL color model has a lot of issues with it and has been improved upon with OKHSL.
See this article—once you see the OKHSL color wheel, you will be sold instantly! Looks way better.
See attached images of HSL vs OKHSL.

Would be great to have this in Illustrator.

View Transparency Grid only in artboards
Like other users I've encountered here, I find the whole-window Transparency Grid to be a significant distraction. It'd be helpful to be able to at least opt to show the grid only within artboards, and even better to toggle the grid for specific artboards (see screenshot).

Put gradients in swatch groups, option to make them global, work between Illustrator, Indesign, Photoshop
It's a three-in-one suggestion around the entire universe of gradient issues in Adobe software.
A. Why can't we put gradients in swatch group folders? This seems like a very basic feature for swatch organization.
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31389250B. Why can't the gradient be global so editing a swatch position or color in the gradient panel moves/changes it across all uses of the gradient relative to the current scale of that gradient?
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/33164479 and
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/37224865)C. Why can't we save gradient swatches in a way that is shareable between other Adobe software? Available gradient styles are also inconsistent in the Adobe-verse.

Objects on Path should allow snapping to (smart) guides
Hello Creatives,
I hope you enjoy the new handy "objects on path" tool as I do.The Request:
It would be awesome if Objects on Path (New Tool) could snap to smart guides, guides or even - let's go wild - to a grid. As sometimes you work within systems and/or objects are related to each it feels like this feature would make it a really great tool to design with.Kind regards

Allow to make menus and dropdowns more compact on smaller screens
Anything under 1920x1080 does not allow for UI scaling. I use the drop down menus a lot. When I have to also scroll on each drop down menu it causes a lot of time loss. If I could scale the menu lists to remove the need to scroll it would be very helpful.
I see that the tab/menu for Effect is still an older style menu list. It's much more compact.
Maybe there is a way to revert all the menu lists to that older style?

Frescoの「連続する範囲内を塗り」を追加して欲しい。

Add an "All Minuscule" button to the character tool panel
There's an all caps button why not the opposite. At times I've seen plenty of brands use minuscule characters for some lines exclusively. It would be nice to have templates that prevent the error to have majuscule letters or vowels when a brand doesn't want it and explaining it to the client/customer. I've made a sample you can check out. It seems simple enough to add.

Espacio de trabajo universal y personalizado entre apps de Adobe
Hola Adobe 👋
Soy diseñadora gráfica y trabajo con Illustrator, Photoshop e InDesign a diario. Estas aplicaciones comparten muchos paneles (Capas, Alinear, Color, Transformar, etc.), por lo que me gustaría poder crear un espacio de trabajo personalizado y universal, que se sincronice entre las apps de Creative Cloud.
La idea es simple: si un panel existe en esa app, que se muestre en el lugar donde lo puse; si no, que lo ignore. Pero que respete mi estructura visual y estilo de trabajo, sin tener que volver a crear manualmente el espacio de trabajo en cada aplicación.

Export selected artboards using "Exports for Screens" with editing capabilities preserved
Can you provide a checkbox in Adobe Illustrator that allows exporting the selected artboard from a file with multiple artboards, while preserving editing capabilities? This would ensure that fonts and images are not missing, and that the file size remains small due to only the selected artboard being included.
I work for a Hindi newspaper, and the fonts I use in the file are not available everywhere. As a result, the fonts get missing on certain systems if the file is exported as a PDF without 'Preserve Editing Capabilities' enabled, which affects the quality of the product. Additionally, if the…

Preference for keyboard increments in NUMERICAL value boxes
I love being able to use the up/down keys to change the values of the numerical values in panels and dialog boxes such as OFFSET PATH.
The problem is that the incremental jumps are to far (1/8 of an inch when set to inches). We can use modifier keys to increase or decrease this jump, BUT it is still big jumps.
I can find no other way to adjust this other than moving to Points or pixels for the measuring through right clicking the ruler, even though I am working in inches. This moves the increment to those base values:…

Select multiple symbols for Symbol Sprayer
I would like to spray a random variety of (self made) icons.
Why not select multiple symbols and have the brush iterate through this selection?5 votes -
An option to convert a line into a dimension line
Sometimes it’s so much easier to draw a line, using a familiar click-drag-release method, instead of click-click-click method Dimension Tool uses to Manual Dimensions!
I really with to be able to covert a viable line (an open straight line with no handles and two points only, being it a live shape or not) into a dimension, with zero offset and no extension lines.
It IS possible to do today, but using some shenanigans I show in a GIF attached. The way extensions can’t be set to zero is a problem though, and should be reported separately.
Some plugins and scripts…

Show Appearance as a popup instead of a panel when clicking More button in Properties
Selecting the ellipsis button in the Properties panel for the different sections opens a simple popup panel for further actions and self-closes.
However, the Appearance section will pop out completely into it's own panel?
This is annoying as I have to close the Appearance panel each time.This should be consistent like the others.

Disable geometry size limit for corner widgets
It seems like there is a hard limit on the object size for corner widgets.
Take a look at the GIF:
when my shape is 1.42 px tall — I can see the widgets,
but if I make it 1.41 px — widgets vanish... and it doesn’t matter if I zoom in, they won’t appear!
It makes it very inconvenient when designing pixel art, icons, small things... This should be screen-based, not geometry-capped!While you are here, take a look at the related request:
Make the corner widgets automatically disappear in small objects

Auto-Eyedropper when hovering over Swatches Info objects
Please make possible to make the current tool automatically change to Eyedropper when you hover over the coloured squares in Swatches Info objects. Essentially this makes them function just like a swatch in the toolbar.
I usually lock the Swatch Info Layer immediately so the swatches don't get included when dragging to select multiple objects. It might be useful to tie the automatic eyedropper tool change to the lock status of the layer, so you still get the expected behaviour when the layer is unlocked, but when it's locked you get the eyedropper when you hover over the swatches.

Separate "Ask when opening" settings for color mismatches
We have a large team that's constantly opening previous projects. The print team is separate from the video team.
For the video team, the CMYK profile is sort of irrelevant, but the RGB isn't.
Is there a way to have Illustrator tell about only RGB color mismatches when opening the file, and just preserve CMYK?
Basically, I'd like to have the result of "Ask when opening" different for CMYK and RGB.
That way the team can keep a policy of preserving CMYK without getting a popup every time, but act only RGB profile mismatches.

変数のデータセット名をCSVからインポートできるようにして下さい。
変数の機能はとても便利なのですが、インポート時にデータセットの名前を任意のものにできないので不便です。現状だと、自動的にデータセット名1、データセット名2、データセット名3....というような名前が設定されます。これでは実際に選択するまでなんのデータなのかわかりません。
現状はイラストレーター上で一つ一つ変更するか、XMLでダウンロードして名前を変更しなければならず、不便なので、よろしくお願いいたします。2 votes
