Rename artboards and layers easily
Please develop a method to easily rename artboards and layers. An option to switch between layers by pressing tab would be great. An option to find and replace text in artboard names would be perfect.
At the moment renaming artboards is a time consuming process because you have to doubleclick every artboard separately and enter text.1 voteAi now support pressing Tab while renaming difference items in panels, including layers, artboards, symbols, etc.
Find and Replace in names is not yet an option, but there are many free scripts that allow that.

CC Libraries on Illustrator Paste in Place in artboard
Could we get an option to save an artboard together with the group of items selected when we save to Libraries?
I mean instead of modifying the artboard size to fit all elements, libraries would save the size of the original artboard and all the items in it, including the items that bleed outside (as bleed marks).
2 - Would also be super useful to get an option to "paste in place" when pasting an item from the library into an artboard if the target artboard is the same size as the original artboard.
I will try to explain my…

Crop Image to Artboard Option
When creating multiple graphics with high-quality images, it would be great if there was an option to select when cropping an image that automatically cropped the image to the size of the artboard.

Object > Repeat > Mirror needs options for Flipping
Currently the only assignable option for "Repeat > Mirror," is the angle of symmetry. The option to flip the mirrored object (similar to the "Reflect," tool) would be useful for Mirror. Example: Illustrating the letter "S," or "Z," for asymmetrical designs. Similar options are already implemented in the "Repeat > Grid," function, but aren't present for "Repeat > Mirror".

Repeat Grid ignores Use Preview Bounds option
When we try to use Repeat function, the measurements are off when the object has stroke. When we align multiple objects in a grid like manner without using Repeat, Illustrator uses the bounds of the object without taking its stroke into consideration. But when using the grid tool, if the object has stroke, it adds the distance of the stroke to the measure and affects the final result.

Pull multiple images from folder one at a time, image trace/expand and store in 2nd folder, in 2 different formats
Can you make it so that an Action in Illustrator will pull batch images (probably one at a time to avoid processor overload) into Illustrator from a specified folder, apply image trace, apply expand, then save to a second folder in two different formats (EPS/jpg).
And PLEASE keep the settings for Image Trace (mode, etc) the same for each imported image, instead of returning to default.

Default Swatches and Styles as part of New Document Dialog
The first thing I do every time I create a new document is delete all those default swatches and add my own. And those pattern swatches (e.g., "Jive," "Golden Ring," "Alyssa"), I am literally never going to use those.
And those quirky Graphic styles ("Jive_GS" etc). I am literally never going to use those either.
Ideally, I'd like to load up a document with its swatches, paragraph styles, graphic styles etc as part of the "new document" dialog. I can choose artboard size, bleed, margins, all kinds of things.
How about if I could pick swatch groups, paragraph styles, graphic…

Right Click In General (notably context menus)
Illustrator is seriously deficient in its rightclickability. I want to rightclick on a link in the links panel and relink it. I want to rightclick on a swatch and delete it. I want to rightclick on a paragraph style and apply it. Or redefine it.
In short, bring right-click capabilities up to speed with Photoshop and InDesign.

stroke width tool more defined errors with conflicting properties.
There are several things that do not allow the use of the "stroke width tool", like brushes, or having the stroke non aligned to the center... but right now the tool gives no hint about what is the issue, and why is not working.
What about giving you a more specific error, and showing the option to dissable this conflicting property. (if you cannot work around the stroke width in this circumstances.)1 vote -

Allow to change default settings for 3D and Materials effect
Can we please change the default settings on 3D effect to not apply anything or allow us to change the default. It takes forever to load on every project just to open it up for a simple bevel to be applied. Many times my app just crashes just opening up the window just from applying whatever the default setting is doing to the text I selected. My computer is far beyond the specs that it says the program requires until I need to open this tool on anything.

Illustrator Panel keeps resizing its width when changing to another tabbed panel.
Illustrator Panel keeps resizing its width when changing to another tabbed panel, unlike in Photoshop. Can't you make this stop? It's been around for years. Very irritating. I usually don't put any panels underneath my Layer Panel so there is nothing there to keep it from resizing. Why do we have to put up with this? Photoshop interface is more relaxing. Why can't it be the same for Illustrator?

Create set of tools for items in Menu/Object/Path...
I find I frequently got to Menu/Object/Path/Offset Path or Menu/Object/Path/Outline Stroke along with Envelope distort and Expand.
It would be great to have these functions available as Clickable Tools that I could add to a Toolbar.

Gradient Mesh Tool should have the ability to add a circular mesh within a circle.
Gradient Mesh tool should have the ability to add circular mesh lines within a circle. Currently if you have a circle, a new mesh line will only span from one edge of the circumference to another however it would be good to add a concentric circle in the circular mesh

Montserrat Semibold has problems syncing
The Montserrat font is experiencing synchronization issues, even though it is installed in Creative Cloud. It disconnects every time, while the other fonts remain normal. Please check the bug.
In the screenshot I am sending, you can notice that the Montserrat Semibold font is not appearing.

Select Same Text Contents
Please make a way to select text object with the same contents.
Would be very useful for many practical cases.
Sure with have Find and Replace, but it won’t allow us to SELECT these text objects,, which we can use for styling, hiding, moving, rearranging, and more.11 votesThe latest Beta version (27.7) has the ability to filter contents of the Layers panel with an input field at the top of the panel. It does not directly select the objects that have the chosen value in their names (this includes the text contents), but allows to select them faster in the panel.
Does it help?

Panel Calculator for Illustrator
Panel Calculator for Illustrator
Hello
My calculator panel idea in illustrator is shown in the attached picture
Approximately, as I see it and based on the tasks that I solve in illustrator.
It would also be nice if the Calculator and Transform panels work together. The principle is shown. Perhaps even understandable. An active window in one is an active window in the other...In general, a calculator is a useful thing and it would fit well into the adobe system.
It would also be nice if the Calculator panel could interact with other panels with which this is possible.…2 votes
