1. Isolation tints eyedropper colors from linked assets

   When using the eyedropper tool in isolation mode on artwork, the color is taken from the actual artwork even though isolation mode displays it as faded. When doing the same on linked assets, even if they are Illustrator files, the isolation mode fade gets applied to the sampled color. This means that you have to back out of isolation mode and direct-select it to sample the asset, or otherwise have already created a swatch before entering isolation.

   I think it would be nicer if Illustrator could treat the sampling of linked assets the same way it does for local artwork - sampling the actual colors instead of the colors after fading is applied.

2. Tool tip switch in the program's top panel

   It would be great to have a tooltip switch in the program's top panel, as it is not possible to disable them from the first launch of Illustrator, and it's not very obvious in general. Therefore, I suggest adding a toggle switch for these tooltips. While they are indeed helpful, it's not always easy to remember what each tool is for. However, during active work, having the tooltips constantly displayed can be distracting, and to turn them off, one has to go into the settings and disable "Show tool tip." It would be nice if tooltips were also implemented for the effects menu and the entire menu.

3. Non-Destructive Path Trim

   It would save me incredible amounts of time if I could simply--and non-destructively--trim a path.

   Example:
   I create a character's arm using a tapered stroke. I then duplicate that tapered stroke so that it can function as a shirt sleeve.
   <Here is where the issue comes in...>
   There's not a good way to trim that duplicated stroke to function as a sleeve. I can add points and delete the stroke, but the width won't match anymore. I can create a clipping mask, but it's a pain and makes adjusting the characters pose needlessly laborious.

   Being able to trim the path would make something like this MUCH less painful as there are fewer layers and points you need to mess with.

   Second example:
   I want the upper arm behind the character and the forearm in front. A trim paths would make this easy. You'd just duplicate the stroke, place one below the body and one above the body. Then you'd trim each to meet at the elbow.

   I hope that makes sense. If not, I can elaborate. Sometimes it's difficult for me to put words into a coherent sentence. :p

4. Disable all "Generative AI" marketing popups

   Whenever I use Illustrator lately, I'll be in the middle of editing a document when this annoying feature popup appears. Literally right in the middle of me trying to get work done.

   Please give me a way to disable this altogether. I have no interest in this feature. Please stop pushing it to me.

   Two related requests:

   1. An ability to disable Text to Vector Graphic feature and any other generative options — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/47462738

   2. Remove Text to Vector from Properties panel — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/47638688

   Please upvote them, if you agree.

5. An ability to create custom bevel profiles for 3D and Materials Extrude

   We can create our own profiles for now Classic Extrude, by modifying the Bevels.ai — located here:
   Mac: /Applications/Adobe Illustrator [version]/Support Files/Resources/[locale]
   Win: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator [version]\Support Files\Required\Resources[locale]

   But changing the file does nothing to customize bevels for the modern 3D!
   They seem to be hardcoded.
   Please, make the same file to be recognized by the modern 3D, or perhaps come up with some better way, that does not require to modify a red-only file and restarting Ai — for both 3D methods.

8. 功能请求：关于画板移动

   下面是使用场景：
   当一个大项目中有多个小项目（多个画板），每个小项目都需要标注说明性文字。当我要把所有（或部分）小项目移动到画布的其他位置，目前我只能对画板进行移动，每个画板的说明文字无法一起移动。当前的操作是，画板和文字需要分别移动，非常麻烦，而且项目多的时候容易出错。希望能增加相应的功能！

13. Menu Item Move Between Creative Cloud Apps

    Suggest adding a menu selected item to navigate between CC apps. When working in AI and need to move image to PS there is no shortcut for this. Moving between Plugins is way easer. May be include a menu selected or button to quickly move the image.

14. Opentype + Glyphs UI Menu Preview

    While the UI for Opentype is appreciably better than Indesign, there are still a few hinderances in the UI that make it painfully difficult to use and limits functionality. This could solved in one (hopefully easy) solution: PREVIEW TYPOGRAPHIC FEATURES

    THE PROBLEM:
    Currently, you have to click the stylistic set to open a dropdown menu, once you’ve clicked a style, the dropdown disappears. To see another style you need to open the dropdown menu again and deselect the previous style you just selected. Open the dropdown menu again, and then select the next style.

    THE SOLUTION:
    Opentype and Glyphs panels should behave just like the Fonts Menu: When you open the font family menu with text highlighted, each font you hover over previews on your selected text.
    This needs to be replicated for Opentype and Glyphs. So once you open the dropdown for Stylistic Sets or Glyphs, each style you hover over, will preview in real time on your selected text or in a pop up menu.

    Not only will this SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE USER EXPERIENCE by removing all the clunky impediments, it will also IMPROVE ACCESSIBILITY! As someone lightly vision impaired, it is extremely difficult to see small details in the font + glyphs menu. Having the ability to preview the changes on highlighted text, allows me to see the styles at a visible scale!

    Please Adobe team make these changes!🙏 It will make Opentype and Glyphs easier to use and more accessible to all. 😊

    Also sorry if this request already exists - it's really hard to search and navigate posts. 😞

15. Option to disable centre point on text box

    With Area Type, if I use the text tool to highlight a word (for example, if I want to embolden the word), if I catch the centre point of the text box in the wrong way, Illustrator will assume that I want to create a new text box, which I don't. I know I can manually disable the centre point via the Attributes panel, but I need to set the centre point to OFF by default, and to my knowledge there is no way of doing this.

16. Overwriting Existing Workspaces and Toolbars

    If I wanted to update my custom Workspace, I can create a new Workspace and give it the same name as before. When I do that, I am warned that the name already exists, and that clicking 'OK' will overwrite the old one. This is great. But if I try the same process for updating a custom Toolbar, it makes me choose another name. Then I have to remember where these files are stored in the Finder, go to that location, delete the old Toolbar, and rename the new one. Please make the process for updating an existing Toolbar as simple as updating an existing Workspace.

19. Feature Request: Preference for Copy and Duplicate Layers without auto renaming and adding "copy" to them

    Hi Adobe 🙂

    I make large Illustrator files that have lots of layers, and often I find myself copying a layer that has a ton of sublayers. I spend way too much time renaming the copied layers removing the word "copy" or "copy 3" etc from the sublayer names.

    I have found some workarounds, if this helps anyone. If I want to copy a layer called **, I will copy it, then rename it XXXz then paste and the new pasted layer is ** without the name copy, then I can go back and remove the z from the name of the source layer.

    But often, I just want to option drag a complicated layer or a number of elements into another layer and have the names not change.

    Can we make a preference for not renaming duplicated or copied files? It would save me a ton of time and effort, and it seems like it wouldnt be a big deal to add a feature like that - it's not really complicated, but of course it takes time and resources away from other things perhaps?

    Still if it's an easy fix PLEASE consider it? It would save me many hours of time over a month.

20. Star Tool: include center/origin lines

    This would be a small addition, but one that I think would be valued. All regular stars (that is, not "fun" stars whose inner circle radius has been enlarged to make them "puffy") are made up either of:

    1. A repeated/rotated shape
    2. A single line bouncing off the outer diameter that eventually meets itself again

    It would be a nice addition to this tool for those "origin lines" to be represented in the output so that we can more easily create art based on those lines instead of having to re-create the lines manually.
