1. Add more icon types in History and stop calling some operations just 'Undo'

   We finally got our History panel, hooray, thanks to this request: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31139326

   But it’s been 2 years now, and yet still some operations are called just 'Undo' and have generic 'something from a menu' icon.

   Move? Menu icon.
   Copy? Menu icon.
   Applying an effect? Menu icon.
   Creating a repeat? Menu icon.
   Deleting a a portion with Shape Builder? Menu icon.
   Applying a swatch? Menu icon.
   Applying a graphic style? You guess.
   These are all quite distinct, yet a generic icon is used.

   Calling a script? 'Undo' as well, as if Ai doesn’t know about scripts.

   I know it’s quite consistent with Photoshop, but Ai is more object oriented than Ps, and deserves more definition for object-based operations.

3. Ability to pre-select Fill Color for the Type tool, rather than defaulting to Black text.

   Ability to pre-select Fill Color for the Type tool, rather than defaulting to Black text. This allows for more flexibility and efficiency for using the type tool throughout a project with multiple text colors.

4. Copy layer from one document to another with effects / appearance

   Wouldn't it be nice to be able to copy-paste a layer from one file to another, including the layer’s effects / appearance?

   Or to have an option to Duplicate a Layer into another file (like in Photoshop).

5. Quick access to the grid, more artboards operations, advanced snapping options

   New features in the future?

   1. Quick access to the grid:
      Allow the grid to be activated directly from the main interface and to personalize the isometric grid or the classic grid , without having to navigate through the software settings or preferences. video demonstration 4

   2. Management of multiple canvases:
      Not only allow multiple canvases to be displayed in the same workspace and make it easier to copy and paste one or more objects between canvases (something that is already present), but more importantly offer the ability to flip the canvas and rename the canvas name directly and immediately. video demonstration 3

   3. Advanced snapping options (magnet/calamite).
      Provide more options for snapping functionality, such as:
      Snapping to objects
      Snapping to the grid
      Snapping to guide lines
      Snapping to canvas edges
      Snapping to distances and reference dimensions
      Snapping to shapes and tangents
      Snapping at points
      Snapping by collision and formation
      Ensure that these options can be used simultaneously without conflict, as is already the case in Affinity Designer and VectorStyler more or less. image magnet 1,2

6. Allow to hold Shift to force Aligned (orthogonal) Dimensions

   Ai now tries to smartly detect a relative position of the cursor to a dimension being created and choose if it should be parallel or oblique.

   This sound like a smart solution, but in practice is SUCKS.

   Take a look at this small GIF.
   1. The dimension between two objects is live, and responds to the object being moved up and down fine
   2. But if I choose to move it to the right, it says 'hey, I am a dimension between two points, I’m switching to be slanted'
   3. OK, I delete it and try to create anew. STRUGGLING, because the space is tight, and if I move the mouse too much, it thinks I try to create a horizontal one. Finally I am able to catch the sweet (sour) spot, and caaaarefully move it back holding my breath.
   4. Now it’s an orthogonal (aligned) dimension and I can realign my object back or move without a risk of loosing the status.

   But we can’t covert 'manual' dimensions into 'aligned' one!
   We can’t hold Shift to FORCE it to be aligned!
   WTF?!

7. Warn about text elements in a document

   Greetings, team. I have a suggestion to enhance your fantastic design software. I frequently work with tiny text elements in my vector art designs for textile sublimation. The challenge lies in the sheer volume of items I create daily, each with various sizes and variations. Sometimes, I inadvertently include text within the art, only to notice it after printing. To address this, I propose the creation of a 'guide text' feature. This text could be visible during the design process but excluded from the final print. Alternatively, a warning could be implemented to alert users when text is present within the art. Thank you for considering my suggestion

9. Add Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+X as a text modal keyboard shortcut for strikethrough text

   Recently Ai finally added hotkeys slots for text formatting (following this request: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/33679330) — for bold, Underline, Italics.

   We need more.
   Even though Strikethrough (as well as Underline) in Ai is very basic and does not allow customization (here is a request about both: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48103976), we need at least an empty hotkey slot for it. Most apps support Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+X for this, so I suggest the same combination.

10. Images with the file name underneath.

    Would be great if you could place images on to an artboard and have the option to display the files name underneath the image.
    This would be great when designing images for Etsy showing the customer the choice of images they can choose and then tell you the file name of their chosen image.

11. Allow to make menus and dropdowns more compact on smaller screens

    Anything under 1920x1080 does not allow for UI scaling. I use the drop down menus a lot. When I have to also scroll on each drop down menu it causes a lot of time loss. If I could scale the menu lists to remove the need to scroll it would be very helpful.

    I see that the tab/menu for Effect is still an older style menu list. It's much more compact.

    Maybe there is a way to revert all the menu lists to that older style?

13. Improve Assigning Color Profile

    I’ve been running into some challenges with color profiles in Adobe Illustrator that I think could use improvement. Every time I open a document, I’m asked to either assign or discard a color profile. The issue is, even when I choose and save the file, Illustrator asks me again when I reopen it. Is there a reason it’s not saving my choice?

    Another thing that could help a lot is when working with multiple images, like 20 or more. Instead of getting prompted one by one for each image, it would be much faster if I could see a list and just check which images I want to assign a color profile to. Right now, it feels tedious, and it doesn’t seem to remember my selections.

    I know I can turn off the prompts, but since I still need to convert the images, having a faster method would be great.

    It might also be really helpful if Adobe created a simple course or video that explains how to handle color profiles. There doesn’t seem to be much clear guidance available for this.

14. Dimensions layer should stay locked

    Since you decided to force the creation of a specialized Dimensions layer on us when a dimensions is created (and here is a feature request to make this optional: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48236954), we now have a problem with accidental creation of art directly in this dedicated layer, since every time a dimension is selected, this layer gets active and unlocked (reported here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/939477/suggestions/47570813)

    Since you probably don’t really care, and won’t solve both issues, perhaps you should keep this layer locked and not unlock until we choose to.
    Perhaps you should make the Dimension tool lock-agnostic then, and allow it to edit and created dimensions in this locked layer (which will prevent every other tool accessing it).

    Do something already.

15. Allow Live Paint selection to have complex appearance

    Using Live Paint Selection Tool, we can choose sections of the Live Paint objects, areas and segments of contours, assigning fills and color to them.

    But what we can assign is rather basic (the same as for live characters, and the related request about the same deal is here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/46545787)
    We can’t assign a brush, change order of appearance attributes, add a second fill and offset it, assign any effect to it, distort or roughen — only fill under stroke, no stroke alignment (even though the panel lies it can be done), no arrowheads... at least dash count as basic apperance.

    We need more control over it. We need to be able to control appearance for Lve Paint selections fully.

17. Display Move Locked and Hidden Artwork with Artboard option in Control panel and Properties while using Artboard tool / mode

    The Move Locked and Hidden Artwork with Artboard option should be displayed when the user is actually in the "Edit Artboard" mode, using the Artboard tool. It is common problem when you want to duplicate an artboard and you have locked background. In most cases, I want to move my artwork with the background.

18. Rename a document from its tab

    Illustrator allows to to set a name for a new document in File > New dialog (both modern and classic one). But once a document is created, you no longer can change the name until it’s saved.

    If a user want to set a name, but not ready to save, they have no other choice other then save. While it’s OK to have an unsaved document with a specified name, you are given the chance to name it once until then. Not fair.

    Perhaps you should allow users to rename any document for it’s tab?
    Probably not with a single click, since it will greatly distract users with false recognition (I don’t even doubt this), but maybe a context menu command? a double-click?

    Then, it’s another related, about renaming opened files in general:
