Don’t drop selection from all the selected links when using Embed
If I have several images selected and hit Embed, in the end I get them all embedded, but only the last image processed selected.
Why? I never wanted to alter my selection, I just wanted to have them embedded. I makes sense from the programmer’s point of view, since these get embedded one by one. But form a user’s point of view it’s a batch operation, Embed ALL. I selected ALL, and I want to keep them ALL selected.

3D from Illustrator to CC library via obj format (to after effects)
Hey there. Don't know if anyone here also follows After Effects news, but they just added something pretty cool :
Support for OBJ import from Libraries
Now import OBJ 3D model files from your Libraries into your compositions
In addition to GLB and GLTF, the capability to add 3D model files from your Libraries into your composition is now extended to OBJ 3D model file format. You can add OBJ 3D models to your Creative Cloud Libraries from Adobe Stock, your local system, or your After Effects projects.

The Flip buttons in the Properties panel should copy objects
In the Transform section of the Properties panel there are Flip vertical and Flip horizontal buttons.
When holding down Alt while pressing the buttons it would be convenient if they could copy the object, like InDesign does.

We should be able to right-click on any command and Add a Hotkey to it
Ai is stuck in 90-s with the UI’s paradigm.
We need faster ways now.Why can’t we right-click any command in the top bar menu and choose 'Add a keyboard shortcut' command that will immediately open the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog with this clicked menu item already chosen?
Why should be go to the dialog separately and search for the command once more?

Preview of the Artboard Sizing
If we could see what the sizing of the artboard would look like before we click the create button, because sometimes it's just easier to test there before starting an entire new document! :)

Alt/Option-click on the "New style" icon to open a text style definition dialog directly
It would be a giant leap forward for Illustrator to match InDesign's UX for paragraph and character styles management.
Allow us to Alt/Option-click on the "New style" icon to open the style definition dialog directly, avoiding nonsense names like "Paragraph Style 1."
The same approach is used for Graphic Styles, so it should be allowed for text styles as well.
Original idea by Alan Gilbertson

Ability to save presets for each tab in 3D and Materials panels: Object, Materials, Lighting
Illustrator allows us to save appearance attributes as graphic styles, but recently we got the complex 3D and Materials effect that has a lot of different parameters in it.
The current system allows us to save all of these parameters altogether: extrusion depth, rotation angles, material settings, applied lights...
But if we need to save ONE of these — that is, for example, only the material, or only the lights, or only extrusion and rotations, — Ai does not provide means to do it.Please introduce a system to save presets per each tab the 3D and Materials panel has:…

Custom keyboard shortcuts for File Commands should work when no document is open.
Because custom keyboard shortcuts only work when a file is open, some File Commands like New from Template don't work when you would need it.

It could be a system that automatically creates design examples with the content we provide
It could be a system that automatically creates design examples with the content we provide. For example, you can think of it like in the Powerpoint application. Let's randomly add the content we have to a page and let it show us a few random design examples. It doesn't have to be perfect, it could just be at an idea level, maybe?

Display artboard captions when exporting artboards
Every time when i have multiple artboards and hit Save As, Ii don't know exactly which artboards i want to include, cause i don't know the specific number.
So i go back out of the save as dialog, pick the Artboard Tool and save again, now able to see which numbers i want to include. I would be less time consumption if it would show the numbers of the artboards always no matter which tool is selected, when there is a save as or export dialog started.11 votes -

Make it easy to colour pie charts using colour libraries.
Unable to use the libraries colour menu to colour a pie chart. This is ridiculous. I had to make a separate box on the page and use the eyedropper to transfer the colour to the pie chart. Even the Eyedropper wouldn't work directly with the colour in the colour library and that is where all our brand colours are stored.

Golden Ratio Option in the Character Panel
I would like to suggest adding a Golden Ratio option to the Character Panel for selected typefaces. This feature could help users easily establish a clear visual hierarchy by automatically calculating proportional font sizes for headings, subheadings, and body text.
Such an addition would streamline the process of creating balanced and aesthetically pleasing typography, ensuring that readers can quickly and intuitively distinguish between various text levels.
Thank you for considering this enhancement. It would be a valuable tool for designers aiming to achieve professional and harmonious typographic layouts.

Make 3D and Materials effect work with raster images
3D and Materials effect doesn't work with raster images. It gives me a strange unrelated message (see attached) when I try. I use Classic 3D, it works, but unfortunately Classic 3D is not really precise and sometimes gives strange results, but better than nothing.
