    尺寸标注在相同的默认值情况下,尺寸标注参数对较大尺寸对象看起来是合适的情况下,对较小尺寸不合适。
    希望尺寸标注参数能自动适应对象大小。

  4. Smart objects (opened from Photoshop) should have the same name as their Photoshop layer

    I'm working on a complicated digital twinning pipeline which involves a lot of nested smart objects within Photoshop files.

    Oftentimes these smart objects are merely white text and it's difficult to distinguish between them when several are open at the same time.

    The problem is compounded because illustrator simply refers to each object that I open as "Vector smart object". Having several open at the same time quickly becomes difficult to manage. I believe, too, that Photoshop is sometimes unable to launch a particular smart object in illustrator because of a clashing "Vector smart object" 'file name' instance.

    It would…

  5. An ability to disable Text to Vector Graphic feature and any other generative options

    I'd like to be able to turn off the new feature for "text to vector graphic (beta)" if possible.

  6. The Dimension Tool Precision menu needs more precise options

    Currently, dimensions are limited to three decimal points or 1/4. Users need finer, more precise options added to this menu.

  8. Smart Guide object edges (on mouse hover) should be easier to distinguish from actual selected object edge

    With smart guides on, a selected object's edge outlines look the same as a rolled-over / mouse-over / hover-over object.

    With complex art, it's often difficult to distinguish if you have an item selected or not. Bounding box handles help, but It would be better if there was some additional attribute related to the actual outline. Perhaps a lower tint of the same guide color?

  9. Print current artboard

    If my file has more than one artboard and I want to print the selected artboard, I have to press (shift + o) to see number of the artboard, then (Ctrl + P) then I have to write the number of the artboard I want to print.
    This actually so boring especially if my file work requires to print a lot.
    Please if you add an option to print dialog which is (print current artboard) that will help a lot.
    Thank you

  11. Date of last modification of artboard

    It would be great for everyone who makes document with multiple rounds of revisions to have a feature that will keep track of last date and time of modifications.

  12. Magic Wand: Remember default values, restrict to active artboard, fine tune values, ...

    The magic wand seems to got old. It is missing so much functions.

    • Remember settings from previous sessions
    • Restrict selection to active artboards
    • Restrict selection to view
    • Restrict to main active layer

    • Add all the possibilities you can find under "select > same"

    • fine tune the values

    • explain the tolerance value (e.g. for fill colour)

    • add selections by tint, by hue, ...

  13. Make scrollbars higher contrast or allow customizable colors for them

    The gray on gray scheme of the slider and handle in the scrollbars is extremely difficult to work with. Higher contrast is needed or provide the ability to customize the slider color. This is an accessibility issue for older or visually impaired users!

  15. Option to add dimensions to current layer

    I enjoy the new dimension tool but find it annoying that it creates a whole new separate layer. Maybe my workflow is unconventional, but it would be nice if the dimensions could just be added to my print instructions layer instead of a whole new layer just for the dimensions. I make a lot of diecuts and find myself still using old methods to create the dimension lines due to it always putting them on another layer.

  16. Toggle Artwork Visibility Outside of Artboard

    The function of the w key in InDesign switches between preview and normal view. Why doesn't Illustrator have this functionality? It would be so useful as I usually prefer to use Illustrator when I'm initially laying things out for a design project. I've seen multiple requests for this functionality in the forums. Please please please add this!

  18. 功能请求:关于画板移动

    下面是使用场景:
    当一个大项目中有多个小项目(多个画板),每个小项目都需要标注说明性文字。当我要把所有(或部分)小项目移动到画布的其他位置,目前我只能对画板进行移动,每个画板的说明文字无法一起移动。当前的操作是,画板和文字需要分别移动,非常麻烦,而且项目多的时候容易出错。希望能增加相应的功能!

  19. Press Alt while creating a radius / diameter dimension to toggle these two mode on the fly

    Currently Dimension tool requires you to orient your cursor when creating a radius or diameter: inside of the clicked shape to create a diameter or outside to make it a radius.

    This is very nifty, sure.
    But:

    1. The tool hardly tells you about it when you draw. The only hint Ai give us is a blue bar (that we all tired of seeing, because everything in Ai now pops and shouts and distracts — I’m speaking about use, Text To Vector!) — I attach the screenshot of it for those who blinked and missed it.

    2. If I work with a…

  20. Chained dimensions

    New Dimension tool is designed to be good-enough, but not be way too complex to setup and use.

    One of things we need to be a part of this 'good-enough' set of features it has should be a way to create consequential serialized dimensions, like the image attached demonstrates.

    To do that now, we’d have to drag each segment one-by-one, and snap the dimensions line to each other (which in the current build just doesn’t happen even!). This method is generates doubled lines instead of only one, and won’t allow us to move all the dimension lines at once if…
