1. Group color handles in the Recolor panel’s Edit mode

   It would be great if we could select colors in the Edit mode of the Recolor dialog and group them together so they will be linked and move as one.
   Right now, they're all linked, and we can unlink a single color from the rest, but there's no way to dynamically group sets of colors. In this example, for instance, it would be nice to group a bunch of them by hue (the reds, the greens, the purples) or by value (the light green & pink as one group, the dark purple, red, and green as another group, etc), or by saturation (the mid and light purple + the light green as the low saturation group, and the rest as the high saturation group). This could also be used to group colors by what part of the image they're being used for (e.g.: a person or a shoe or whatever you're drawing!)

   The problem got solved with toggling the 'Reduce transparency' option.

4. Exact ARC export in DXF

   Illustrator internally represents curves as Bézier paths, while CAD/CNC workflows rely on true ARC entities (constant-radius circular arcs).
   At the moment, there is no reliable way to export Illustrator geometry containing circular arcs to DXF while preserving them as exact ARC entities. All curves are approximated as splines or segmented polylines, even when the geometry is mathematically circular.
   This creates a serious issue for CNC workflows, where exact radii and true arcs are required for correct toolpaths, tolerances, and part fitting.

   A highly valuable feature would be:
   • Detection of constant-radius Bézier curves
   • Optional conversion of those curves to true ARC entities during DXF export
   • Or an explicit “Export arcs as ARC entities” setting

   Many users create simple technical drawings in Illustrator because of its excellent drawing tools, but currently must redraw all rounded geometry in a CAD application to guarantee accuracy.
   Enabling exact ARC export would significantly improve Illustrator’s usability in maker, CNC, and fabrication workflows.

5. An option to choose if the Artboard background color should be exported, for each format, including PNG

   When exporting an artboard to PNG, I hope there is an option to follow the background color of the artboard itself. I thought the purpose of the new update is to be able to use that same background color when exporting. I still need to add a shape with the background color that I prefer before exporting.

6. Move a shape side (edge) without selecting both anchor points

   Illustrator currently requires selecting both anchor points of a side to move it.
   When working on very tall or large objects at high zoom levels, this forces users to pan away from the working area just to select the second anchor point, interrupting focus and slowing down layout work.

   Feature request:
   Add an edge-based editing option that allows moving an entire side (edge) of a shape by interacting with a single visible anchor point or directly with the edge itself, without selecting the opposite anchor or changing the viewport.

   This behavior exists in other design tools (Figma, InDesign frames, CAD software) and would greatly improve precision, speed, and usability in Illustrator for branding, layout, and technical vector workflows.

7. Bevel tool for Embossed Shapes and Text - Fully interactive

   A tool to create a nice 3D-looking edge to an object, making it look raised from the page.

   It can raise the object visually, by using the colour of the object and creating light and dark sides to it.

   It would be great to be able to change the light direction, light height as well as other parameters such as the type of bevel - round, chiselled, etc. to give your object a physical appearance.

   To create the tool with teh possibility to drag handles directly on the object to adjust depth, contrast, and light elevation in real-time.

   This would be so amazing. And other vector drawing tools do have this.

8. Percentage relationship between geometric shapes

   When we have two or more logos together and they display different shapes (circles, rectangles, squares), it would be helpful to establish a relationship between them based on their percentages. How much should I enlarge or reduce a circle so that, proportionally, it has the same visual weight as a rectangle?

9. Reorganize the SWATCHES WINDOW to be able to see ALL colour values

   Many os us (designers) don't have a huge screen to be able to spread all windows/tools allover thus, my request is regarding the way the colours names are displayed in the swatches window. I can’t see all values!!!

   Even using the "small list view", all values can't been seen (this is what I see now: C=30 M=60 Y=4...) unless the swatches window is really wide... using too much space out of my screen. (check attached image)

   Maybe a quick solution could be using C30 M60 Y40 K10 instead of C=30 M=60 Y=40 K=10

   There are also many space “not used”, but still the total full colour value can’t be seen. (check attached image)

11. Multi-letter Shortcut Combinations

    I would like to see an option to create multi-letter shortcut combinations for every tool, menu item, action in Illustration.

    E.g. rather than just CMD/****/OPT+ a letter (e.g. CMD+S, OPT+CMD+A, etc.) have the option to hit three letters in succession e.g. CMD+ELL (ellipse), CMD+KER (kerning), CMD+RML (Paste Remembers Layers on/off).

    This would increase the number of possible shortcuts by a factor of ~2200x

15. Allow Users to Change the Default Save Location Behavior

    In other production software, there is a preferences setting that allows users to change whether the program will open the file explorer relative to the current file's save location or to remember where it was last opened to.
    This feature is sorely missing from Illustrator and causes me loads of headaches when exporting assets for multiple clients in rapid succession.
    To make things worse, if you use the Asset Export window (Export for Screens), the "Export to:" filepath will prepopulate to the last location that that particular file saved to. If you click the folder icon to the right of it, you would expect the file explorer to open in that directory. But it does not. Instead, it opens in the last place Illustrator exported assets to, regardless of the active file.
    This is counterintuitive, and I often have to backtrack to find assets that I for sure thought I exported, but turns out they were sent to a seemingly random folder.
    Please let us choose whether or not Illustrator will open the file browser relative to the active file's location or whether Illustrator will remember where it last saved a file regardless of active file.

16. Please update the Glyph Panel with a search feature for icon tags in icon fonts.

    Currently, if I create a text block to add an icon-font, the default placeholder text prevents the icon font from being displayed in the Glyphs pallet. I have to delete the placeholder text just to see the Glyphs.

    But more importantly, I spend a great deal of time digging through these icon fonts to find the icon I need.

    What would be ideal is if you would enhance the Glyphs pallet to include a simple text field that would allow me to search within an icon font (or really any font) for a specific character tag.

    The enclosed image shows how the Glyph panel could look. You would add a search field to the top of the panel where I could type in an icon search term. In this case "arrow". All of the icons in the font with the tag "arrow" would be highlighted in yellow.

    If I select an icon, it turns blue and the associated tags are displayed at the bottom. In this case, I searched for arrow, but wanted the play button. So I could click the Tag button and add the "arrow" tag to that icon for future reference. If I wanted to delete a tag from a font, the popup tag menu would allow me to delete the tag (as well as the close button on the tag itself).

    Also, notice that this would allow me to view as a standard glyph table as well as a taglist table. The icons would run vertically in a column with their associated tags to the right of them.

    By maintaining the font-icon-tag list in a simple json file or xml or whatever, you could allow new icon font makers to tag their own fonts for convenience. You would only have to tag the fonts in the Adobe Font Library, which I would volunteer to do if it would help make this possible.

    If someone added an icon font that had no tags, they would be able to add their own tags.

17. Show the number of all and selected layers in the document

    Please add an indicator showing both the total number of layers in the document and the number of layers currently selected for potential operations, in the bottom-left corner of the Layers panel.

    I am confident that you will consider this proposal carefully and evaluate the integration of this functionality into Adobe Illustrator, helping make the user experience even more efficient and intuitive.

20. In the Font Palette, under Filters, please add English, or Latin, or Western European Roman. PLEASE!!!

    The lack of a Western European or Roman filter is insanely stupid. The way it works now, if I want to work in Burmese, I can have a nice short font list. But if I want to work in English, I have to show ALL LANGUAGES, so I wind up with a list of 400 fonts, most of which are unusable. This seems prejudicial, if not negligent. Why on earth was this obvious filter item excluded????

    Added to Backlog  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    As per the team, they do understand that it’s an issue for folks working across multiple languages.

    In Illustrator, however, the font filtering is based on script, not a simple language grouping. Hence it’s not very straight forward to do for Latin. There is no concrete plan or timeline to make it resolved, but it’s now added to the backlog.

    Thank you all for raising this up. Feel free to share more thoughts, do report, request, comment, and upvote — this really helps to steer the development.
