1. Allow to create a new file from a selection on canvas or Layers

   Can't create new files from layers or groups, gotta select everything and create a file, instead of just creating an artboard from by the file dimensions copied.

2. "Show me the offending object" button in the appearance error dialog for [IABD] and [!out] errors

   I really would kinda love it if there was a "Show me the offending object" button on the "Error processing appearance" requestor next to the "OK" button.

3. Eliminate the 2 different size canvas modes

   There are scaling issues in large size canvas mode. For instance, when creating a file in large size canvas mode and saving as PDF with trim marks, the trim marks will be scaled up 1000%. Instead of them remaining .375", they scale up to 3.75" (http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/44115801)

   Additionally, several third party plug ins do not work properly in large size canvas mode because of this scaling issue.

   Ideally, Illustrator should eliminate the 2 different canvas modes and simply allow any document to be scaled up to the same dimensions as "large size canvas" mode but leave all scaling as it is in the normal size canvas mode.

   CorelDRAW does not have this limitation. Why does Illustrator?

4. Request: Add Custom Font Sizes to Text Size Dropdown in Illustrator

   It would be great if Adobe Illustrator allowed users to save custom font sizes (such as 150pt, 200pt, etc.) to the default text size dropdown in the Character panel. Currently, while you can manually enter large font sizes, they don't appear in the dropdown for future use. Allowing custom sizes to be added to the dropdown would save time, improve workflow consistency, and make working with large text sizes more efficient. Thank you for considering this feature!

6. Add ability to hyperlink text (properly this time)

   In June of 2023 the Illustrator team fixed a old bug with hyperlinks added through Attributes panel being dropped while exporting as PDF.
   The team thought of it as a solution to this request: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/40418827 — and marked it as such.

   I do not agree.
   The solution is nowhere final, done in the most basic way possible, merely a bug fixed, like if no-one in the team did try to make it useful at the level of today's standards.
   — A partial text selection can't be made into a hyperlink.
   — No widgets are given on the canvas to see if an object has a hyperlink assigned or not, and to open the link directly from the canvas (with or without a modifier).
   — Attributes gives no way to jump to a previous/next hyperlink in the document.
   — The 'browser' button uses the IE browser, not the assigned one at the OS level.
   — If I cover an object which has a hyperlink assigned, with another object that has another hyperlink, the area they shared together is overtaken by the one which is below, and not according to their z-order.
   — 'Polygon' image map option does not work, the object gets a rectangle area still. The sacred knowledge about creating polygonal image maps in Ai is long lost, and the only mention the official manual has about it is here (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/slices-image-maps.html) — but it never actually tells how to create these. Surely not via rectangular-only slices. It should just happen automatically, and it does not.
   — What about automation? To have the links to be auto-tagged, like this solution for InD does (https://www.id-extras.com/products/hyperlinkpro/)?
   — What about auto styling, like InD provides?
   — Will we be able to fine tune the look of the Character’s 'Underline' option? Nobody places lines this close to text anymore on web.

   So yes, this should be made BETTER.

8. View Transparency Grid only in artboards

   Like other users I've encountered here, I find the whole-window Transparency Grid to be a significant distraction. It'd be helpful to be able to at least opt to show the grid only within artboards, and even better to toggle the grid for specific artboards (see screenshot).

9. Generate a full calendar design with a text prompt from a custom template

   I think this will be the next level of GenAI
   The idea is to generate text using AI recognition from the customized template and add multiple artboards with Gen AI.

   For example:

   If we have a calendar design for January 2025 with editable text.
   We input the prompt like "generate remaining months of 2025"
   The GenAI feature should recognize the template, colors, and text within.
   The GenAI should make additional artboards with the remaining months and accurate data keeping the template and the colors consistent.

10. Custom marquee shapes for Direct Selection tool like circle, star, rectangle, etc.

    The Direct Selection tool would follow the logic of creating an individual shape. A marquee that can be scaled, moved and also rotated live would be a awesome feature.

11. Treat groups as a result of Unite and not Intersect when using as a clipping mask

    If we put a group on top of some art, select them together and create a clipping mask from this top group and the art below, usually we won’t see anything, as if it does not work.

    We expect Illustrator to treat the group as a result of Unite operation, but actually it is Intersected instead. This is hardly useful. and if we wanted to use an intersection of parts, we’d clip with a compound intersecting shape probably.

    Please give us a way a to choose the default treatment for a group used as a clipping mask. I assume it should be an object-level preference, controlled in Attributes panel, to keep it compatible with existing cases.

12. Put Apply to Selected button into Dimension Tool Options dialog

    At the moment we can edit existing selected dimensions using Control or Properties panel (except for Scale!)

    But if one chooses to open Dimension Tool Options dialog, all the settings won’t be applied to a selection, these would alter only dimensions created AFTER.

    I’d like to have another button here, to allow me to apply chosen settings to what I have selected already, or perhaps even to All, similar to the Properties-only quick action button (this and others there should also be available via Object > Dimension menu the team 'forgot' to add: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49010378)

    And so you know — there ARE tool dialogs that work like this.
    Blend Options would change a selection (that’s why it should be a panel: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31988758), Gradient tool too (and it IS only a panel, with no REAL tool options, which is another overkill)...

    Some consistency and common sense, please.

13. Allow dimensions to be editable

    It would be nice if the dimensions and lines were editable.
    I generally build to scale because the dimensions of my projects to size are too big for the artboards and contain several larger elements. Having to enlarge each piece in order to get the proper measurements is time consuming and inconvenient. Being able to edit those would make things much easier. I have a script that can do it, but the tool would be better.

    Completed (Comments Open)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    Latest builds of Illustrator allow to edit most of created dimensions using Properties and Control panels.

    The tool dialog sets options for new dimensions only and does not have a button to apply the set options to selected or all dimensions on canvas. If you wish to have a button like this in the dialog, please upvote this request.

    If you have other weak points to point out — please comment or make a new request / report.

14. Illustrator Share For Review | "Actual Size" Page View

    In share for review, the previews allow the viewer to change the page view to “Fit Window Width” or “Fit Full Page” in the lower-right corner.

    We need an “Actual Size” view setting. It would solve issues such as unwanted enlargement of small designs and checking details on large designs.

    BONUS: The ability to select a default view in our Share For Review settings would be the icing on the cake!

15. Allow to assign several colors as transparent for Image Trace

    Currently Image Trace allows to pick one color to ignore and replace it with full transparency. Perhaps some users might need to pick more than one color.
    UI in other places offers to setup several color chips, seems like a consistent move to allow the same here.

16. Make a way for Scale Artwork with Artboard mode to NOT scale strokes and effects

    It’s good to finally have Scale Artwork with Artboard option (http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31500847), but I really wish for it to respect Scale Strokes & Effects option.
    For now Scale Artwork with Artboard behaves as if it’s always enabled... I realize scaling strokes is natural for this mode, but the current way means if we need to scale an artboard, but NOT scale the strokes — we can’t do that.
    It almost feels like it should be a separate option specifically for it.

17. An option to convert a line into a dimension line

    Sometimes it’s so much easier to draw a line, using a familiar click-drag-release method, instead of click-click-click method Dimension Tool uses to Manual Dimensions!

    I really with to be able to covert a viable line (an open straight line with no handles and two points only, being it a live shape or not) into a dimension, with zero offset and no extension lines.

    It IS possible to do today, but using some shenanigans I show in a GIF attached. The way extensions can’t be set to zero is a problem though, and should be reported separately.

    Some plugins and scripts allow this exact function, I don’t see why Ai can’t have it.

18. Add Units Dropdown in Properties / Control / Transform panels

    I constantly have to change units based on job parameters.
    I would like to have a Units dropdown in the Properties panel itself.
    Instead of going into Preferences or show rulers to change units, add a dropdown to the Transform section of the panel.

19. Show Appearance as a popup instead of a panel when clicking More button in Properties

    Selecting the ellipsis button in the Properties panel for the different sections opens a simple popup panel for further actions and self-closes.

    However, the Appearance section will pop out completely into it's own panel?
    This is annoying as I have to close the Appearance panel each time.

    This should be consistent like the others.

20. Predictive text and optional ai copy adapted to text box design sizes

    I would like to have predictive text, while I write it can complete the word like it happens in my phone.
    Also once you have my copy done, have a menu to have other copy options, translations and changes of copy adapted to cover more or less space in my design.
