  1. Ability to shift and organize projects on the Home screen

    Sometimes I want organize projects not based on time I worked on it or name, but just what I would like to be at the top, so I would like the freedom to move them around freely rather than having them restricted to those two choices.

  2. Add common shapes to of illustrator shape tool (heart, banners shields)

    Feels like reinventing the wheel just to get a heart. Have more easily accessible stock shapes and let the user upload more to the shape tool - make a "more" like button.

  3. Copy and paste formatting to text

    Please add a very important abbreviation
    It is paste formatting
    (And copy the same text)
    I suggest its shortcut is ctrl + shift + V
    and
    ctrl + shift + C copy shortcut
    As in MS Word
    It's an important shortcut and makes it much easier at work. Please let me know when it's activated

  4. Add and option for Offset Path command and effect to respect the direction and starting point of the original path

    Offset Path makes width and length of a rectangle to swap

    When applying Offset Path after making a rectangle, the size of width and length of the rectangle are changed into each other and the rectangle gets rotated 270 degrees even though real shape is not changed.
    It seems bug need to be fixed.

    I attatched gif video and related link.

  6. Reflect and Unite in one step, without extra points

    Reflect a shape and Unite it to the original shape without having extraneous points - in one step. Having to close the shape, then carefully align it and then unite it only to see you have extra points in the middle where the shapes overlapped is a hassle. (use - making symmetrical, complex shapes like frames or road signs or something similar) Thank you!

  7. Unembedding Multiple Images keep only one of them selected on canvas

    Since 27.8 we can unembed several images at once, if we check 'Unembed all selected images to this folder' option in Unembed dialog (requested here: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/20608015).

    But if I do this, I get only ONE of them selected after the unembedding process is finished. I am seeing the last one gets selected briefly and then the first one, and stays like this. Why not all previously selected?

  8. GUIDELINES

    Full transform options for GUIDELINES. I want infinite DIAGONALS!
    Please and thank you! xoxo

    TL;DR
    We all know math is the basis of all good design work. (Critical for branding) I can't count the number of times I've messed up manual diagonal spacing. It's a sticking point for me, especially when working on deadline.

    Being able to set up a template of guidelines (in the same way that "workspaces" functions) could be beneficial for different types of jobs.

    Other things that would be nice:
    -Golden Ratio guideline (also Branding essential)
    -Colour of guidelines matching layer colour (much more helpful than…

  9. Make calligraphic brush support dashes

    "Dashed Line" does not work. At all. Even default brush does not respond. V28.3 on both OSX and Windows.

  12. Tool to identify the size of each asset that is added to a document

    sometimes I save a project file and it is HUGE... because some asset I added is also HUGE, but I didn't realize it...

    I would like to see a feature where I could open a panel (maybe integrated into a LINKS panel?) and it shows each asset added and the size...that way I can make the decision to manually edit that asset to a smaller size so that my files aren't so huge

  15. Add a triangle to the shapes tool apart from the star.

    I'd LOVE if there was a triangle tool other than using the star tool to make it easier and quicker. I make a lot of signs with arrows and it'd be SO nice. THX!

  16. 复合路径建立的剪切蒙版

    复合路径建立的剪切蒙版，如何把蒙版分割的对象分离成单独的对象。如图中，我用矩形复合路径通过剪切蒙版把图片分割，但是现在是一个整体，我想让蒙版中分割的每个对象成为一个单独的对象，请问有什么好办法吗？比如类似于“扩展”的功能。
    当然，每个矩形可以单独建立剪切蒙版，但是会非常麻烦。

  17. Seed generator for random options

    Random in Illustrator is NOT random.
    Depending on the values I will always get the same result. Add an seed generator. Best would be to add an option go type in the seed manually, that way I can choose if a want the same randomness or a random randomness.

  19. Modern 3D effects need more control over mapping

    Map art lacks of control. I can't find a right way to place my art along the shape I've created. Previous versions let us place graphics, symbols, along the created shape and play around to find the desired way to make the art. Please add more graphic placement controls for symbols or graphics in 3D shapes.

  20. Allow outline / edges colour changes in Symbol edit mode

    Allow the user to change the outline colour in Symbol Editing Mode. 'Options for Symbol Editing Mode' is always greyed out. It's possible to change the outline colour but it always reverts to the randomly-selected default colour.

    See summary of issue here:
