1. 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.

   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.

2. Remove Text to Vector from Properties panel

   Would like an option to remove it from Properties panel as it sometimes opens on its own after I have closed it and it impedes my workflow having to close it again because it obstructs actually useful things Properties panel.

3. Pin Contextual Task Bar position (like in Photoshop)

   Hi Adobe,

   While I love the idea of the contextual toolbar, I'm sure I am joined by many in my opinion that it really gets in the way a lot of time, covering up parts of the design you'd like to see, making it hard to resize or move an object precisely and so on.

   I'm extremely happy that I can just permanently pin the bar in the bottom of the screen (or wherever I want it) in Photoshop, but this option is entirely missing in Illustrator.

   The bar will remain where it is for the duration of my work after I move it, but the position is not retained going from document to document or when I restart Illustrator. Can you PLEASE add an option to permanently pin the position like in Photoshop?

   It's either that or I'll have to deactivate it entirely as it's more annoying than it is helpful when it gets in the way all the time. The benefit just doesn't outweight the annoyance, I'm sorry.

4. Intertwine needs a better way to display order operations rather than hiding them in a context menus

   It’s not clear we can chose methods other than 'swap order' for cases when a freshly created intertwine zone has several possible solutions. Illustrator draws and edge around the current zone (quite poorly signaled, which is a different topic: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/45845602-make-intertwine-edit-mode-telegraphed-better), but then a single left-click just swaps and immediately ends editing the zone.

   The fact we can click on the highlighted segment with a right mouse button and choose an order is not very obvious... because — let’s admit it — Illustrator can’t do context menus very well and we are not used to have anything really 'contextual' in it.

   Sure, single click is fast, but not always enough in complex zones.
   Intertwine should be able to not commit changes instantly for zones with multiple choices.

   Here is one example when even a pro user can’t crack it with their first attempt: https://twitter.com/coro46/status/1582367474837659655?s=20&t=nxj4qh3YSNpH6W0hpYrhuQ
   Imagine new users trying to discover it on their own, without a guidance.

5. How do we add copy and paste to the right click menu?

   How do we add copy and paste to the right click menu?

   In almost all Adobe products copy and paste are in the right click menu but I can't find a way to turn them on in Illustrator. How do I get them to show up or even request an update to the program if they aren't in the program for some strange reason. Why would they be left out? Can we also use scripting to add other useful commands to the menu to save time while we work?

   you should consider adding the "perspective" feature from the classic 3D options to the new realisrtic 3D!

   adds more depth especially if used in typography.

   The perspective in classic 3D unfortunately is not working well if the possition is FRONT because the render of the sides is incomplete!

   Imagine if this feature was part of the new 3D!!!

   PLEASE ADD THE PERSPECTIVE INTO THE NEW 3D

   thanks guys

11. Gradient following the curve of a shape

    Don't know if this is an original idea but - is it possible to make an feature to make a gradient follow a user-drawn guideline (like with text on line)..? I tried to illustrate it in the attached file - the first shape is the one that should be filled with gradient, the second one is what we can do now (or mesh but that's a bit complicated) and the third one shows the guideline in purple and arrows that the gradient would follow. So the lower left part of the shape would be let's say darkest, the gradient would follow the arrows along the purple guideline and the top left part of the shape would be the lightest...
    I hope that it is possible to make that change...

18. Radial Array Feature (akin to AutoCAD)

    I know there's a workaround whereby one can accomplish this, or nearly so, with the rotate/copy function; however, the implementation is somewhat inelegant, especially for new users who might not be aware of the 360/x syntax. It has been a number of years since I have used CAD, but I recall the Polar Array command being much more full-featured and am struck that AI still doesn't have a better way to do this. In point of fact, a liner array wouldn't be a bad addition, either, and would save the headache of trying to do it with patterns or aligns.

    It does not work exactly like Polar Array in AutoCAD, but recent Radial Repeat is very much similar to this function you wanted. the main difference you do not specify a circle before, but after you generate an array.

19. basic grammar in alerts please.

    "close anyways" ? “anyway” is an adverb and it is impossible for adverbs to be plural.

    Agree, this is actually a bug that slipped through. We are fixing this is our next release, which is rolling out as we speak. Thanks for the feedback. Keep it coming.

20. Overhaul of Illustrator's 3D capabilities.

    Illustrator's 3D effects are hugely outdated. Something that matches or even exceeds After Effects would be a would boost to the program.

    Heck, even something that allows you to easily rotate and move the shapes around in 3D space like AE would be great. Illustrator's current 3D tool are clumsy and cumbersome.

    Illustrator introduced a new panel for creating 3D shapes in October 2021 — '3D and Materials'. Older effects are still available as 'Classic 3D'.
