2. Illustrator 26.5.2 The new Lock object tool is terrible

   Go back to previous old version of the object lock. I do not like the gray border of a locked object. I cannot click through the object on other objects around or near the locked object. The OLD way of locking objects was better. It just sat there visually and did not affect neighboring objects.

4. アートボードごとに、「スクリーン用に書き出す」際のファイル形式を設定、保存ができるようにしてほしい / Allow to set format per asset/artboard in Export for Screens

   現在の「スクリーン用に書き出す」は、この操作を行うたびにファイル形式を設定する必要があり、しかも全てのアートボードを同一のファイル形式でしか書き出せない。そしてファイル形式は書き出すたびに初期化されてしまう。これは不便である。

   これを、例えばアートボードオプションで、アートボードごとに書き出すファイル形式を設定し、その設定を保存できるようになれば大変便利になるはず。

6. Selecting layer selects artboard

   I have been given an icons file that has 100+ icons, each on a separate artboards.

   I can search (finally) for the item in Layers and select it, but it is not selecting or locating the artboard at the same time.

   An alternative to this would be to have a search function on artboards.

7. Select Artwork by Swatch

   This is how it should work:

   Select a Swatch in the Swatches palette, choose from the menu: 'Select all object that use this swatch' (as Fill / Stroke).

   Comes in very handy to select items via the Swatches palette in complex cartoon style drawings. It is also a way to - kind of - create long awaited multi layer groups.

9. 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 issue and why I'm suggesting this (It is long, you don't have to read it if you understand the main suggestion):

   I have created a library of several complete artworks to be used by the rest of the team I work with. The idea is that for repeat files, text, photo, and elements placement is always the same no matter who uses it.

   When I create the artwork, I always leave some bleed marks to avoid white lines on the border of exported files (that bug that happens sometimes). So, if my artboard is 2000x2000, with bleed, the whole group becomes 2008x2008.

   When I save the group to the library, the file in the library will have an artboard of 2008x2008 instead of an artboard of 2000x2000 with the bleed marks.

   The problem is, when we "Place Copy" the library item into an artboard, it is rarely placed in the original place it was when I saved it to the library.

   If I place it as a link, it somehow aligns but it will not from time to time.

   If I "place a copy", I always have to try to aim the perfect spot when placing it but if it has a photo in a clipping mask, it never aligns correctly! (and I have to align it manually again)

   Also, if I save only one item in the artboard, that is just part of the component, I won't have the original position saved and will have to manually place it correctly in a new artboard or make a transparent object to save the position.

   The workarounds I found were:
   - Go into edit mode, copy what I need, and paste in place on the new artboard. The problem with this is that you need edit access to go into that mode and I don't want to give editing access to all the team members that - will need this material.
   - The other is to place the group anywhere and then align it to the current artboard manually, with the align tools. The problem with this is that it only works when you have the full composition. If I save one component and want to save the placement of it in an artboard, I have to save a transparent object as a guide as well, which can be annoying and confusing for newer members of the team I work with.

   I attached some examples to try to explain better as this has been hard to describe.

   If anyone knows any other workaround for this situation that I have missed, I'd love to hear it!

10. 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.

11. [Script HELP] Import file to artboards and flatten transparency

    Hi, I'm looking for a script that can IMPORT files (AI, PDF, EPS) by inserting these files, or multipage PDFs, onto multiple illustrator tables in a connected way.
    Then let me select eg. from table 1 to 5 (of 200) and apply a preset registered in the CONVERT TRANSPARENCY panel.

    Can someone help me?

12. 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.

13. Smart Guides: prioritize artboards, respect logical hierarchy

    This situation has been frustrating for many, many years:

    • I'm zoomed out to a level that makes it tricky for AI to understand what I want Smart Guides to snap to.

    • There are many elements in my doc that could be desired for that snapping, but they are a mix of paths, compound paths, placed media, and artboards. Many of these things are FAR away from the elements I'm trying to snap.

    • AI either doesn't have any perceived hierarchy or it prioritizes snapping in an obscure way, and it will attempt to snap to those far away things instead of A) things nearby, or B) art boards, which are objectively the most important/obvious thing to be snapping to (that is, if it's a 50/50 choice).

    The desired behavior (IMO) would be for AI to choose snapping based on clear criteria, such as:

    1. Closest artboard corner
    2. Closest artboard edge
    3. Closest group or compound path
    4. Closest element inside a group or compound path
    5. Closest placed media

    ...etcetera. The above is just a "for instance," but you get the logic — when in doubt, choose the highest thing in the hierarchy, and that hierarchy starts with artboards since those are much more substantial than floating elements and because most designers align things to those more than they do other elements.

    This situation has been frustrating for many, many years:

    • I'm zoomed out to a level that makes it tricky for AI to understand what I want Smart Guides to snap to.

    • There are many elements in my doc that could be desired for that snapping, but they are a mix of paths, compound paths, placed media, and artboards. Many of these things are FAR away from the elements I'm trying to snap.

14. 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 styles, etc from CC libraries as part of the new document dialog?

    It's a small thing, but after year after year of deleting the 500 swatches that I will never use - and then adding the six that I need with literally every document I create - seems there could be a smarter way to get started. Know what I mean, Steve McQueen?

15. 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.

16. 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.)

18. 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.

19. 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?
