1. Make Keyboard Shortcuts and Action panel both see shared conflicts

   You can assign F-keys to panels in Keyboard Shortcuts.
   You can assign F-keys to actions in Actions.
   But they know nothing about each other.

   When you try assign a combination that is already taken by another command, Keyboard Shortcuts window will warn you and give ways to solve the conflict... but not if the F-key-combination is taken by an action — it knows nothing about actions.

   Same with Actions panel — it knows nothing about Keyboard Shortcuts and never warns you, if you try to set, say, Shift+F8, which will disable native Transform panel call.

   Please let these two work in the same database and know about each other and warn users.

2. Simple little change: Remove tiny shadow behind new artboard

   I've noticed this for years... whenever I create a new document in Illustrator--no matter the size or mode and without any bleed settings, the artboard has a tiny grey "drop shadow" behind the artboard. See ATTACHED. It does not affect art and never prints, but more times than I can count I've found myself zooming in and attempting to select/delete it, thinking I left some sort of unwanted element behind while I was working. Or I see the faint "border" and think my graphic elements aren't fully aligned to the page edge, when the actually are.

4. Ability to copy the name of a folder to other folders

   I name folders with the same name (ex-"PDF REVISED) to several different folders for several different jobs, but now I have to type out each name on each and every folder. Older versions of Illustrator had this function. Please bring it back.

6. Add more Definitions to repeat

   Allow more definitions to repeat feature.
   The spacing is awesome and long overdue. and the brick and flip features are amazing.
   But would like to be able to define the total repeats in a unit, not just in size of the repeat area. if we use it for production we want to be able to repeat 10 wide and 5 repeats high. not having to count them separately and having some cut in half. If we repeat 35 in a horizontal row it can take time to count the amount of total pieces. Also maybe add a small total of pieces info number in the repeat panel.
   Maybe if we hold done ctrl it changes the amount of repeats and alt changes the spacing, and when you don't hold down any keys it just changes the repeat area as is default now.

7. Illustrator auto save folder

   Hi Adobe team,

   I would like to request adobe illustrator to have an autosave folder feature like the other adobe programs: premiere, after effects and, etc. It will be a helpful feature when users for example do not save their work and use the autosave file. This way users will not need to re-do the work they have created.

   I really hope this feature gets implemented in the upcoming updates.

   Many thanks

8. Ctrl+click the swatch to mix it with the current color

   There is a small thing in Corel Draw, that AI could benefit of too.
   If you have an object selected and click in a different swatch with a Ctrl held, it adds a bit of clicked color to your current one, blending them.

   Like if you have a yellow CMYK 0-0-100-0 and Ctrl+click in 0-100-0-0 magenta swatch, you will have 0-10-90-0, 0-19-81-0, 0-27-73-0, getting more like the clicked swatch with each click. Same in EGB Very convenient for adding color reflexes and picking a color in general.

9. Existing documents open to your preferred units, even if they were created in different units

   So I often work with people in different countries and we often have different unit preferences. I work in mm but when I open files from fellow creatives in America for example, they are often using inches.

   Now I thought that my preferences being set to mm would mean it would show the files in mm, but apparently this only applies to new documents you create, not to existing files. This seems so crazy to me given the digital, remote working, globally collaborative world we live in today.

   Please could this be a thing because going into the settings every 5 minutes to switch to mm over and over again is driving me crazy. I can't possibly be the only person having this problem??

10. 맥 버전에서도 윈도우버전과 같은 단축키를 쓸 수 있게 부탁드립니다.

    윈도우 버전에서는 알트 키를 이용해 메뉴에 접근하고 주요 메뉴는 연속된 키 입력으로 접근이 가능합니다. 예를 들어 문자 전체 선택을 하기 위해서는 알트 sop를 누르면 됩니다. 이러한 방법이 맥 버전에서는 불가능해 너무 불편합니다. 동일한 방식으로 단축키를 사용할 수 있도록 업데이트 부탁드립니다.

13. Auto-calculate spacing of dashed strokes, given dash width and number of dashes

    When I'm designing dials for equipment, I often need to place a dash at a given number of/angular intervals around a curve (eg, ten 1mm dashes around an arc of radius 15mm and theta 3pi/5 radians). Often the simplest, most time-effective way to do this is with dashed lines.

    Currently, in order to work out accurate gap spacings without dashes getting cut off at the end stops, I end up having to calculate arc lengths and gap spacing by hand. I daresay the math is good for my brain, but it would be really handy to input "dash width: 1mm, number of dashes: 10" and let Illustrator work out gap spacing for itself.

    This would be useful for straight lines, too — while it's possible to copy/paste objects and distribute them across the length of a placeholder rectangle, it would be a great deal more elegant to solve this with dashes.

14. Make Illustrator understand the Mask component of SVGs.

    When importing SVGs into Illustrator, the application does not seem to be able to interpret the native SVG masks used. Attached are two SVGs. One is the original one, and the other which ends with "illustratorfromsvg" is how the SVG looks in illustrator.
    You can open both in your web browser. Notice how the hair of the woman in the SVG that's been opened in illustrator does not cover her shoulders. If you look at the original SVG you can see how the hair is supposed to "mask" her shoulders.
    I have explained this more thoroughly in this community thread: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/illustrator-does-not-understand-svg-masks/m-p/12403616#M292425

    If Illustrator could handle these masks it would save me countless hours since I have to manually create each of these everytime I open an SVG in Illustrator. This is part of a task that I perform on a daily basis so it would be great if the feature could be added.
    Thank you!

15. Add Search in Preferences and make them user friendly

    These are various recommendation to simplify preferences in all Adobe Applications.

    • list groupings (ie General, Type, etc.) in alphabetical order
    • or list groupings in logical order
    example for the first three - General, User Interface, Performance...
    • re-review all preference settings and reduce or simplify (Slices has two option?)
    • incorporate a search function to provide the user the ability to quickly locate a specific preference (refer to Apple's System Preferences Search capability.)
    • make preference category lists universal in title and order for all Adobe applications when possible

    The reason is, I wish to work and not have to take time to find preferences. Additionally, I have to reset preferences each time a major update is installed.

    Thank you.

16. Keyboard shortcuts for switching Workspaces

    In Premiere, I can quickly switch between Editing, Multicam and Color Correction workspaces via keyboard shortcuts. I don't understand why the same isn't possible in Illustrator? If you need to switch workspaces with the mouse via a dropdown menu, it negates a lot of the reason for using them in the first place (time savings) It seems even more essential in Illustrator than Premiere, because you typically switch between tasks much more quickly.

17. Seamless pattern creation

    Once you have an illustration completed, you can double, triple, etc, the image you created as they automatically line up in columns once you decide to double (for a seamless pattern) the illustration, image, or 3D assets. Once you start to manually place the duplicated layer you pull the asset to one side of the art board. You want the pattern to have 1/4th of the image going off the art board. The 1/4th section that is going off of the art board (.let’s say on the right side for this example) automatically (almost magically) has the missing section hanging off the right popping out on the left side. Even hair sized movement on the right is accurately pushing out on the left. Once completed you should be left with a pattern that is seamless and a super quick way to create patters for print< physical, social media, or T-shirts.

18. Share for Review for Illustrator

    Enable share for review with Illustrator. I can already see how this will help when working with clients for magazines in InDesign - so I can’t wait to see how I can use if with clients for Illustrator based projects.

    ESPECIALLY as a professor - this will make it much easier to provide feedback for students during remote teaching and learning this fall with COVID.

20. Eye dropper tool matches colour to a Colour Book set of swatches

    As a fashion designer, I always (have to!) work with colour books like Pantone etc. and it is extremely tedious when I use the eye dropper, or open up a default swatch, to then have to open the recolour artwork dialogue box and convert the colours into Pantones.

    It would be so much easier, if we could set in preferences a colour library book as the default set of Swatches that illustrator works from, so that when I use the eye dropper, it will select the 'closest matching' pantone swatch and I do not have to go through the process of converting the colours every time.

    (which honestly drives me bonkers!).
