This option already exists in Illustrator, in Preferences > General, although the name of it is quite obscure — Show/Hide Rulers. Once it’s enabled, each new or opened document will have rulers enabled.

Acceso directo a objetos/texto con rapida configuracion (ejercitos age of empires)
hola! les escribo para dar una breve sugerencia la cual quizás ya fue propuesta por otra persona impaciente igual que yo... Si alguna vez jugaron al age of empires y fueron atacados podrán haberse dado cuenta que si configuraron sus ejércitos con anterioridad podrán defenderse mejor o incluso realizar un ataque mas efectivo. Esto se podría hacer seleccionando primero el objeto/texto y después apretando (control) mas un numero. De esta manera se podría hacer cambios de las distintas profundidades de diseño mas rápido, sin tener que mover todo para los costados si se quisiese cambiar algo el z-index 1.
Espero…2 votesIllustrator today offers Save Selection for this.
We can access these the old way, via Select > Save Selection (and also Edit / Update Selection commands), or via a more modern way, with a small button at the bottom of the Layers panel.
Alas, there is no way to assign a keyboard shortcuts to quickly select them back, similar to what games offer, we are now forced to click this menus... On Windows we can press something like Alt+S, Up arrow, to quickly focus the bottom of the Select menu, followed by choosing a saved selection we need, followed by Enter — but it needs high APM :)
So I will treat this as 'Allow to ahve hotkeys for saving and loading Saved Selections'

Never interrupt my work. Never show new features
Never interrupt my work. never show new features.
master switch for a "veteran" mode that will never interrupt you to show you stupid s**t that you already know.the dumbing down of the CC products is disgusting. you're literally driving me to work on different platforms. I've not opened premiere in a year and I'm down to only photoshop and illustrator.
Add enough pain and I'll move off of those as well.Not only that I'll probably start a YT channel for others detailing how to leave he cult of Adobe as a industry pro.

Move close button away from save in File menu
Moving the Close button away from the Save button, maybe to just below Revert
Sounds like a sad fix but having the Save button right below the Close has caused me to lose original works due to accidentally pressing Save instead of close when i don't to save the changes made.
This has happened when my mouse has had a sudden glitch and not moved the .5mm needed to press the correct button. worse when you can't undo due to hitting the maximum number of undos
Not a major issue but anyone that has done this would know the pain…

Illustrator CC 23.0.1 keeps reopening after closing a file
After I close out a file in Illustrator a blank window pops up ready to make another file. Very irritating. If I wanted to start another file I would open it manually. Otherwise I have to close out the new window to do some other task on my computer. How do I make it stop opening back up??Attached is the window that keeps popping up.

Option for Artboards to be non-printing
Would be very useful if there could be a setting in the Artboards palate that could make them 'non-printing' (Like in Layers) - I use a lot of pre-prepared template files and sometimes don't use all Artboards, so to 'turn them off' rather than having to delete (as I may need them later in a job) or keep changing print options would be great.

Please have customized brushes/swatches/&c. save automatically.
It would be nice if custom created brushes were saved automatically so that users do not have to save them after they have created them.

Customisable touch workspace.
Adobe, could we please have a customisable touch workspace? The other workspaces can be altered, why not this one?
It could be a cool idea to be able to add the delete, undo and redo buttons to the sidebar menu in the classic workspace.7 votes -
アンカーポイント削除時の挙動
例えば添付のような円の向かって左のアンカーポイントを削除すると、当然ながら添付Aのようになりますが、
Bのように、アンカーポイントは削除したいけれど形状はなるべく最初の状態をキープしてほしい
場面がたくさんあります。
他のベクター系のアプリケーションでは可能だったりするので、技術的に難しいことでは
ないと思うのですがこの挙動を採用することはできないんでしょうか。
何かやり方があったりするんですかね？
どちらか選べると大変ありがたいのですが。
またアンカーポイントを、形状は極力キープしたままライン上を移動できるようになると作業効率は
格段に上がると思うのですが。

Allow importing of PDF's not from Adobe Acrobat and preserve text
I import PDF files into Illustrator every day from programs like AutoCAD & Revit, and every single time, it tells me that Illustrator can't read the text in the font Arial, and that it must substitute it. This turns it into squares that are all giberish. The only workaround is to outline text in Acrobat before importing. Please learn that people are using programs outside the Adobe environment (for which there is no substitute by Adobe) and we need these BASIC capabilities.

a way to nest objects on art board for sign makers
Idea: Take multiple objects, such as multiple copies of a logo or elements and nesting them within the artboard and a feature to say how much space you want between each object.
Reason: When it comes to signs or sending a print job to a plotter. Sign makers want to maximize the number of objects on a vinyl. Sure we can manually move objects or even use the distribute tool. but this takes to long and sometimes when selecting multiple objects you can not use the distribution tool to distribute both vertical and horizontal at the same time or objects…

Direct selection tool
Can you please put the selection tool back next to the direct selection tool instead of making it a hidden tool. It's very annoying having to pull it out to have both tools.

Keep color values when applying freeform gradients
When applying a freeform gradient, Illustrator picks up colors from everywhere around the selected artwork, also the selected object itself. It would be extremely helpful if it could reliably keep the exact color values the object has, so you don't need to adjust it.
