Enable tool palettes to ‘Show Options’ by default as a Preferences setting (all CC apps)
I am posting this under Illustrator but it applies to many (most?) Creative Cloud apps.
Many (most?) tool palettes only show a subset of their options by default. To see all options one has to choose the palette's popup menu and click ‘Show Options’.
When working on a smallish screen (as I generally do on my laptop) it makes sense to frequently put palettes away, so this is incredibly annoying because the choice doesn't persist.
When a palette has been closed or minimised, one has to do this every time one wants to access an option input that Adobe has…

プリント画面表示時にそのバックの作業画面のスクロールを可能にして欲しい
デザイン画面をプリントアウトする印刷物を作成するデザイナーのほとんどは、広い作業画面の分割プリント指示を使って複数のラフをプリントします。そのときどのページをプリント指示する場合、作業画面に表示される分割プリントの番号をプリント画面で入力します。ところがプリント画面が表示されている状態では作業画面をスクロールすることが出来ません。その結果、ページ番号をメモしたり覚えたりしてその数字をプリントタイル範囲に入力しなければなりません。かつてのかなり古いバージョンではスクロール出来た時もありましたがいつの間にかその機能はなくなってしまいました。プリント画面でバックの作業画面をスクロールできると、プリント指示の効率が非常にあがります。ぜひ復活をお願いいたします。

日本語での作業時にフォントの選択が困難を極めます。
日本語版を使用しているとフォントの数が極端に多くなります。モリサワ、フォントワークスなどがサブスクリプションで多数の書体が使えるようになっており、そのうえフォントの名前が頭にA-OTFなどのベンダーのつけた記号によって、記憶しているフォント名順にならず、さらに欧文フォントが多数インストールされており、とどめにAdobeTypeが加わり、フォントの並び順がめちゃくちゃでかつスクロールも以上に長く、使いたいフォントにすぐたどり着けません。最近使用したフォントをフォントメニューの頭に並ぶ設定にすると、こんどは実際に書類のフォントを変えながら探すときに、毎回フォントメニューの頭に戻ってしまい、たとえば欧文でAの名前から順に探すために毎回ながいスクロールをするハメになります。また、ラップトップの小さい画面で選べるようにポップアップしたフォントメニューの天地幅が狭く、大型モニタで作業する多くのユーザーは少しの範囲しかないポップアップで延々スクロールしなければなりません。提案は3点。 1｜フォントのポップアップの天地幅を大きなモニタで長くして欲しい。 2｜フォントメニューのフォント名の並び順を任意に変えられるようにして欲しい。 3｜微妙に違うフォントが増えたので、フォント名の右側だけではなく、固定ウインドウにもっと大きなサンプルを表示して欲しい。以上です。英語版以外の特に日本語版のフォント選択の不便さは誰もが困っているはずです。非能率このうえない状態をユーザにいつまで強いるのでしょうか。改善を強く望みます。

Send crash reports to plugin developers.
Today I was exploring a plugin. It is a very nice plugin that does some very powerful things but it is also a little fragile, and it crashed a lot while I was using it. I quickly learnt to save a lot while working with this plugin.
And the crash report dialogue kept on piling up. But I knew it would be useless as this was very likely to be due to something I was doing to make the plugin break, rather than Illustrator break. What're AI's developers gonna do with this crash log? Nothing. It's useless to you.

REMOVE THE FRUSTRATING LIGHT BULB "LEARN" FEATURE BEFORE I CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION!
I would curse here normally but I am trying to refrain, I have taken 10 minutes from my day today to see if this irritating feature that I have never used and even as a newcomer would never use either can be disabled as it infuriates me.
User experience research was not undertaken with this feature clearly as many of the community have voiced their frustrations with this exact feature.
REMOVE IT PLEASE, else I will look at cancelling the subscription just due to this, that's how irritating this pointless feature is, and this is not the first time Adobe…

プロパティパネルのアピアランス部分に濃度設定を追加してほしい
現状のアピアランスパネルでは塗りや線の色を設定する際に塗りのアイコン部分をクリックするとスウォッチが開き素早くカラーを変更可能です。しかし、そのスウォッチに対して薄い色が欲しい場合、開いたパネルで１回ボタンをクリックすることによりカラーパレット表示に切り替えた上での調整が必須です。
この手順はワンクッション増加するためにプロパティパネル上の不透明度の設定を調整することで代替してしまうというワークフローが増加しています。これはデータ上に安易に透明効果を適用した部分を増加させる事に繋がり、適切な設定を施されないままトラブル誘発の原因となってしまっています。
なにより、不透明度を下げるという事はその下の情報を表示する事に繋がりますから色を薄く設定するという意図からはかけ離れた行為であると言えるでしょう。
また、以下のチュートリアルにおいても色を薄くする目的でに安易に不透明度の利用を勧めています。https://helpx.adobe.com/jp/illustrator/how-to/basics-essentials-workspace-illustrator.html
この説明はまずいです。塗りの濃度調整及び不透明度の設定はそれぞれ明確な使い所が存在し、適切に使い分けるべき機能です。
さて、ここで提案なのですが、InDesignの様にプロパティパネルのアピアランス部分の「塗り」と「線」の項目に濃度の設定項目を追加していただきたいと思います。
InDesignとはスウォッチの性質が異なるのですが、設定したスウォッチに対して濃度の項目で設定した数値を単純に割合として計算した数値のカラーを適用出来れば問題ないと考えます。
添付の機能追加提案分の画像の赤で囲んだ部分のイメージのようにしてはいかがでしょうか。
こうする事でユーザーは簡単に塗りや線の濃度を調整可能となります。ぜひご検討頂けたらと思います。

STRUMENTO CONTAGOCCE E TESTI DI COLORE DIVERSO NELLO STESSO BOX
Ho un box di testo con alcuni caratteri rossi ed alcuni caratteri neri.
Voglio copiare tutte le specifiche di testo (font, ecc.) da un altro blocco di testo con lo strumento contagocce senza modificare i colori del box di destinazione.
Vedo che dallo strumento contagocce ci sarebbe la possibilità di escludere/includere il rilevamento del colore, ma quando si applica al box di destinazione tutto il testo contenuto diventa di un unico colore....

Disable bristle brush warning
Whenever a document contains any bristle brush (or expanded bristle brush strokes) you get a warning when you save the document that it contains complex shapes etc.
Could you please make it possible to completely disable this warning?
I know you can tick "Don't show again in the current session" but that's not enough. The warning pops up again the next time you open the document and working on multiple documents containing bristle brushes gets quite annyoing in the long run.

API for getting the reflection property of a frame/linked image (flip)
A couple of years ago we asked about an API for getting the reflection property of a frame/linked image (flip).
Back then, your answer was that there was no such API.
1. Is that still correct?
2. If it is, can you please add such API to your next release?Thanks,

Right click object to hide that layer/object without opening the Layers panel
Is it possible to create a function with right click object to hide that object or layer? Instead of select object and then hide it in the Layers panel? For some reason I always try to do that though that function doesn't exist.

3D rotation tool like XD and reedit primitive shapes
3D rotation tool like XD please!
And, the option to reedit a primitive shape (like a star for example). Changing the number of points at anytime.
...like Xd already does.
It's sad that I've been asking for this feature since decades, and now, a new software can do it, instead of the "cutting edge" vectorial software...
And, the most ridiculous, inside the same company.2 votes -
I request this program to be brought to 2021 rather than leaving it in the 90s. I hate using this program. It SUCKS
Bring illustrator to a current user format. It is stuck in the 90s. I HATE using it. I use photoshop, AE, etc. All great. Illustrator SUCKS. Can I say that loud enough.....

An ability to lock the order of layers, but not their content
On fixing the hierarchy of layers.
In data with a large number of layers, such as a map, the vertical relationship and stacking order of objects is very important. We are very careful not to make mistakes, but there are times when our hands slip and we end up moving them.
At the moment we can lock objects, but we can always manipulate the vertical relationship of objects.
If there is a lot of demand for the ability to lock the vertical relationship other than mine, I would like to see improvements.1 vote -
Batch apply action to selected items
It strikes me as absolutely bizarre that you can't apply an action to multiple objects in turn. You can batch apply actions to files. You can apply actions to selected objects. You can apply actions to a selected group of objects I think? But you can't batch apply actions to groups of objects. I have about 300 really short little lines in an infographic that I need to be the same length. They're fairly spread out and any anchor selection based approach would take 2 hours. What an incredible hassle.

Vector Importing for Library Assets
I would like the option to be able to import vector CC Library Assets as live vectors (rather than as a link) in Illustrator.
This is a vector editing software.....and the asset I'm grabbing from the library to bring in as a vector asset (and probably originally built in Illustrator).....why can't I have an alternate means (ex. Shift+Drag for import = import as live vector art) to be able to bring the asset in as an editable piece of art?
1 voteYou can right-click on the asset you want to place as live vector and choose ‘Place Copy’ command to do that.
- Don't see your idea?
