1. Envelope Mesh needs corner points option

   Envelope Mesh needs to have points that can be converted to corner points. It only has Bézier curve points which make it impossible to get perfect straight angles. Like the pen tool has. I have struggled with this for years.

2. Support all pie functions Ellipse offers for other live shapes

   There a few things circular pies need in Ai:
   1. Ellipse tool, circle pie, Shift snap to angles: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31358686
   2. Allow to define circle pie angles in percent, with snapping options: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/46268533
   3. Reverse Pie with Opt/Alt when creating or editing an ellipse: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49532216

   It would also be nice to add the same behavior to rectangles, for the much beloved Square Pie. Casserole, perhaps? :)

3. Find circle from a given arc

   A tool that, when clicking on a previously created arc, would calculate and give the circle whose circumference that arc is part of; this would enable easier amendments, recreation etc. Can sometimes be done by trial and error, but not always accurately, particularly with 'shallow' arcs for which the circle can be surprising large - difficult to know buy just increasing size, moving centre, repeating etc.

4. Automatically name artboards based on the file name

   Can we have a feature like, when creating a new artboard, the artboard named automatically as per the file name rather than naming it a default - Artboard number.

5. Angular Smart Guides for everything, similar to those Snap to Glyph has

   There is a lesser known Snap to Glyph command in context menu, which allow you to snap to any live glyph under cursor. It requires Smart Guides and Snap tp Glyph commands enabled (and Snap to Grid disabled).

   Once you enter the mode, the chosen glyph is highlighted with a rectangle, and you are able to construct new art relative to points of this live glyph, as if it was outlined.
   These guides are green, similar to normal Glyph Guides, but some guides are unique to this mode, like the 'angular' one — which allows us to build on a continuation of an existing straight line — similar to what 'Line Extension' smart guide does (when not broken).

   This guide is missing in a non-glyph world, and it’s rather cool, and we’d benefit from having it for everything else, for all other tools: Pen, Selection, Scale... Please make it happen and add it as a n option in Preferences > Smart Guides.

6. File sync with Synology drive buggy

   When I'm saving an Illustrator doc to a Synology Drive folder it almost always says, that the file has been changed outside of Illustrator which it hasn't. Finally after saving and closing it, it hasn't synced with the Synology NAS and I have to manually tell it to upload.

   This only happens with Illustrator and Illustrator files. All other programs handle it well. It's seems that there is a proplem with Illustrator and the file provider API from Apple, judging on reports from others with different file provider services.

7. Add Fresco Vector Brush technology into Illustrator

   Not sure why this still hasn't happened yet, but the vector brush in Fresco is superior to any of the vector brushes Illustrator currently provides for traditional style drawing/inking. Be great to have it for desktop vector drawing. Especially if there aren't' any intentions of bringing Fresco into OSX...

8. Clip to key object

   Illustrator allows to set a key object in a selection with a click. The object gets thick edge and can be used for aligning and distributing operation, to stay in place.

   This simple way of marking an object is used only for these, and it’s a waste.
   We need to be able to use key objects for other operations as well.

   For example, why not allow users to clip into the key object, if it’s set? Currently we would have to move it above other objects in a selection, reselect them together, and hope we didn’t mess it up... or cut the objects we need to clip, select the one to be a mask, toggle Draw Inside mode, Paste in Place (works if we need to save the appearance of the clipping path).

   Why just not
   1. Select objects
   2. Click one to make it a key
   3. Run Object > Clipping Mask > Make command (Cmd/Ctrl+7)?
   Zero extra steps. No problems with 'should it be at top or bottom'.

10. Remember if Artboard or Asset Tab Last Used in Asset Export dialog

    Please remember the last tab in the Asset Export window I was on. It defaults to Assets when I usually use Artboards due to the naming convention I build across artboards. GUI for it is still a bit rough and could use some enhancements. Thx

12. Illustrator, Adobe XD and After Effects applications are not compatible with the latest Snapdragon chips

    I'm experiencing a compatibility problem with the Illustrator, Adobe XD and After Effects applications, which are not compatible with the latest Snapdragon chips. The After Effects Beta version cannot even be installed.

    Do you have a timeframe for these applications to become compatible?

13. Allow targeting layers with no unlocked/visible paths in them.

    You can target a layer to apply an appearance by clicking on the circle to the right of its name in the Appearance palette.

    This is not possible, however, if the layer is empty.

    This is also not possible if the only thing the layer contains is empty layers.

    This is also not possible if all the children of the layer are locked. Or invisible.

    There must be at least one unlocked, visible non-layer object in a layer before you can target it.

    I am most often annoyed by trying and failing to target a layer with a bunch of locked child layers in it, but I would like to see all of these restrictions lifted, so that it's much easier to apply effects to nested layer structures.

14. Uniform dashes at end of paths

    It would be great to have uniform dashes at the end of paths when
    "Aligns dashes to corners and path ends, adjusting lengths to fit" is on.

    Currently we seem to get half sized dashes with this option on

15. Allow to customize created dimensions more: move and style text, reposition lines, change units and scale, etc.

    The functionality of the Dimension Tool needs to be improved. I think this tool should be made even more customizable. Example: Numbers and fonts should be able to move, rotate, change its style (add stroke or box it). We need to be able to easily change the units of measurement directly in the settings of the tool itself. Also lines with dimensions should be able to move arbitrarily (up and down) with Direct Selection Tool.

16. Scrollable tabs

    I would like if the Ai interface was less "cluttered" and "manual" to use.

    Specifically, as in the case of having many tabs open than they fit in the viewport, I have to click on the double chevrons (>>) to only be able to open one file at a time. Rather, would you guys consider making it scrollable?

17. Need Save As... in Edit Toolbar options

    I use saved toolbars, but they are tedious to create because when you click New toolbar... you get a blank toolbar and then have to add each tool one by one. I would like to open an existing toolbar (like Advanced) and have the option to Save As... under a new name - then, I can remove the tools I don't want and save it. Better to work from a starting point, than have to start from scratch.

18. Allow to show simple fractions instead of decimal fractions when possible in input fields

    (↑Francais↑ / ↓English↓)

    Ajouté les mesures en Fraction

    Dans la case "Propriétés", dans la section L: & H: , ajouté les mesures en Fraction et permetre de convertir les décimal en Fraction, les Fractions sont par example .: 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/8, 1/16, etc...

    Pouvoir écrire manuellement comme indiqué .: 1/4 qui convertie automatiquement en messure décimal .: 0.25in (Pouce) ainsi de suite.

    Dans les montages graphiques, sa serais beaucoup plus pratique d'utiliser les mesures Fraction que de chercher les mesure en décimal qui est difficile à certain moment.

    C'est un outils et messure très essentiel dans la zone Américain/Canadienne ( Amérique du Nord ).

    ---

    In the "Properties" box, in the L: & H: section, added Fractional measurements and allowed the conversion of decimals to fractions. Fractions are, for example: 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/8, 1/16, etc.

    Be able to manually enter, as shown, 1/4, which automatically converts to decimal, 0.25in (inch), and so on.

    In graphical layouts, it would be much more convenient to use Fractional measurements than to search for decimal measurements, which is sometimes difficult.

    This is a very essential tool and measurement in the American/Canadian (North American) region.

20. A Node View mode for the Appearance Palette, and a complete revamp of what it can do.

    I feel like I have a lot of things I want changed about the Appearance palette that cannot be done in the form of a one-dimensional list of effects.

    I'd like to suggest something inspired by the "node view" in programs like Blender or Toon Boom or Unreal. Give me a 2d canvas upon which I can arrange strokes, fills, and effects, and let me plug them into each other in complex ways. Let me control exactly when a brush is applied to a stroke by moving its effect around. Let me dynamically generate an opacity mask for an entire object, and another one for three of the seven fills and strokes I have on it. Let me generate complex pieces of plumbing that do crazy things based on me drawing one simple path.

    Keeping the Appearance palette around and adding a new Appearance Nodes palette would be fine. Or it could be a new mode in the existing palette. It's also perfectly fine if the existing Appearance palette can't edit Appearance Nodes and just displays a polite apology. There's a simplicity to the existing palette that might be worth retaining, I dunno, when it gets to the point of being in a beta, ask people how they'd feel about losing the old one, and be aggressive about hunting for ways it might break existing appearance stacks - ask us for our craziest piles of native and plugin effects and build a nice set of test cases!

    I am probably asking a lot here. This is feels like a big enough change to be one of the top features of an entire release. Possibly even more. It'll probably involve changing some assumptions that are made deep in the parts of Illustrator nobody understands any more. And it's entirely for the most hardcore users, who're using it in the most esoteric ways. Good luck convincing the people who control the budget that a significant part of Illustrator's development budget for a year or three should be devoted to something that's got zero noob appeal.

    But after about a decade of exploring its possibilities, I'm constantly butting up against the limitations of the Appearance palette. It's time for something to change. Maybe it's just time for me to figure out how to survive a couple months of zero productivity because I'm figuring out how to turn another, younger program into something I can whip out art even half as fast as I can do it in Illustrator. And probably get animation capabilities and some amount of 3d into the bargain. I dunno. I'm fifty years old and I've loved using this program as my main art tool for half my life. Change is complicated.
