Improve Active Artboard visibility
It is quite difficult to see which Artboard is the active one... (it is #3 in this screenshot in case you can't pick it up.)
Maybe add a little color, or thicken the line?

Pfadrichtung im Attribute-Panel anzeigen
Ich meine mich daran zu erinnern, dass früher die Pfadrichtung im Attribute-Panel ersichtlich war, wenn man einen Pfad aktiviert hatte. In Version 30.3. für OSX ist das nicht der Fall. Man kann die Pfadrichtung nur über den Workaround mit Pfeilen sehen.

Photoshop効果「シャープ」のメニュー復活とUI改善の要望 Bring Sharpen / Unsharp Mask effect back
以前のバージョンで利用可能だった「シャープ」や「アンシャープマスク」がメニューから消去されている現状は、作業効率を著しく下げています。
リクエスト：
メニューへの直接配置： 画像を鮮明にするのは基本的な操作です。「効果ギャラリー」の奥に隠したり、Photoshopの起動を強制したりせず、Illustratorのメニューから直接選択できるように戻してください。
用語の分かりやすさ： 「アンシャープ」といった内部処理の名称ではなく、ユーザーの目的である「シャープ（鮮明化）」という名称で直感的に使えるUIにしてください。

Group color handles in the Recolor panel’s Edit mode
It would be great if we could select colors in the Edit mode of the Recolor dialog and group them together so they will be linked and move as one.
Right now, they're all linked, and we can unlink a single color from the rest, but there's no way to dynamically group sets of colors. In this example, for instance, it would be nice to group a bunch of them by hue (the reds, the greens, the purples) or by value (the light green & pink as one group, the dark purple, red, and green as another group, etc), or…2 votes -

Allow no not change the font in Glyphs panel to match the selected text
When I display the Glyphs panel while text is selected, the font attributes of the selected text are applied, causing the font at the bottom of the Glyphs panel to change to the selected font.
For example, if I’m looking at Futura symbols but accidentally click on text set to Helvetica — the symbols displayed switch to Helvetica.
There are times when I want to enter a special character, such as a cherry blossom mark, at the beginning of Futura text. However, when I try to view and enter that character using the Glyphs panel and click on the Futura…

Percentage relationship between geometric shapes
When we have two or more logos together and they display different shapes (circles, rectangles, squares), it would be helpful to establish a relationship between them based on their percentages. How much should I enlarge or reduce a circle so that, proportionally, it has the same visual weight as a rectangle?

Add a "starred" section in CC Libraries for the ability to save libraries at top of list (not just recent).
Currently, CC Libraries lists a selection of "recent" libraries used, and then lists libraries in alphabetical order.
Proposition: to create an option to "star" libraries in order to permanently save them in a section at the top (until "unstarred" and be removed from the starred list).
Why: Working at an agency, we are constantly cycling through a long list of libraries on a daily basis, and the libraries I have used most recently are not always the libraries I use most often. I am constantly scrolling through to find the library I need and it's almost never in the recent…

Multi-letter Shortcut Combinations
I would like to see an option to create multi-letter shortcut combinations for every tool, menu item, action in Illustration.
E.g. rather than just CMD/****/OPT+ a letter (e.g. CMD+S, OPT+CMD+A, etc.) have the option to hit three letters in succession e.g. CMD+ELL (ellipse), CMD+KER (kerning), CMD+RML (Paste Remembers Layers on/off).
This would increase the number of possible shortcuts by a factor of ~2200x

Scatter Brush Options
I would like to see a Transparency Scatter Brush Options added to the current list (size, spacing, scatter, rotation). In addition to the usual Control Methods in the dropdown menu, it would be neat to have a way for Transparency to match Size option. (e.g. 50% size -> 50% opacity.

'Click to copy value' button in Color doesn’t indicate the value gets copied clearly
I don’t like how the 'Click to copy value' button in Color panel is designed — when it gets pressed, it selects the value and that’s it. It makes us think we NEED to copy it, and the button just selects... other editors in similar or related conditions show a shy message or change the icon for the button, indicating the copying happened.

registerKeyEventsInterest fundamentally broken in modern Illustrator (silent failure)
I am reporting a critical issue with the registerKeyEventsInterest API. In modern versions of Illustrator, this function is completely broken for global keystroke interception. Worse, it fails silently with no errors or feedback in the CEF console.
According to the CEP documentation, we should be able to pass a JSON string to this API to catch key events and stop the host app from swallowing them. But right now, calling csInterface.registerKeyEventsInterest() with a standard JSON payload does absolutely nothing.
If you set up a basic CEP panel, include CSInterface.js, and try to register interest in a global keystroke, the code…

Please let us remove the swatches in the Gradient panel
If you have the options on in the Gradient panel there are space sucking gradient swatches - please let us remove these swatches in the panel they take up too much room - previous builds didn't have these ridiculous swatches.

Could you please add a feature for groups?
When a group is selected and you choose to ungroup, please add a dialog that "applied effects may be lost" or something similar.2 votes -
Allow Users to Change the Default Save Location Behavior
In other production software, there is a preferences setting that allows users to change whether the program will open the file explorer relative to the current file's save location or to remember where it was last opened to.
This feature is sorely missing from Illustrator and causes me loads of headaches when exporting assets for multiple clients in rapid succession.
To make things worse, if you use the Asset Export window (Export for Screens), the "Export to:" filepath will prepopulate to the last location that that particular file saved to. If you click the folder icon to the right of…3 votes -
A way to measure the area used by the bounding box, not only shapes within
I noticed that there is a Measure by Area tool, but it measures the print area. We would like the area it forms that considers the selection rectangle.

Allow to reposition buttons in the Align panel
Recently Ai Beta added the Full Align button in the Align panel, following this request: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/34796770
Works perfectly, great icon for it too — my only extra beg is that the order of the align buttons can be amended, so I can drag them into an order that works for ease of use :)

Please update the Glyph Panel with a search feature for icon tags in icon fonts.
Currently, if I create a text block to add an icon-font, the default placeholder text prevents the icon font from being displayed in the Glyphs pallet. I have to delete the placeholder text just to see the Glyphs.
But more importantly, I spend a great deal of time digging through these icon fonts to find the icon I need.
What would be ideal is if you would enhance the Glyphs pallet to include a simple text field that would allow me to search within an icon font (or really any font) for a specific character tag.
The enclosed image shows…
