1. Randomize options for symbol sprayer

   I like to use the symbol sprayer to quickly place a cluster of shapes, but it never looks organic because every symbol is identical. I wish there were settings on the symbol sprayer to randomize the size and rotation of the symbols, similar to settings you might choose when editing a brush in Photoshop or Fresco.

2. Save a Graphic Style in CC Library with a right-click or from the Graphic Styles panel

   It's a huge waste of time to save Graphic Styles as a .ai file when it would be so simple to save Graphic Styles in the CC Library to centralize everything across hundreds of docs.

   Having to locate a file and open it and locate the element and select the Graphic Style and drag it from the Appearance Panel to the Graphic Styles window and then saving it to a file is an incredibly long and cumbersome process.

   Right-clicking an object and "Save Object Style to CC Library" would allow a user to discard a file if they don't need it anymore but save the Graphic Styles contained quickly and effectively.

3. Allow for "New from Template" to remember the last folder used

   New from Template directs us to a dedicated folder that is buried deep inside of Ai’s bowels. It probably is handy for Ai to check it, but it’s now comfortable for us to access it to store the files within. Plus, different projects can have different templates, stored in their relative folders, and an option to make the last folder sticky can be helpful.

4. "Paste Remembers Layers ONE TIME" option

   Rarely do I want this feature active more than 1 or 2 times. Honestly, making "one time" the default would be fine with me, but good to have options.

6. Show thumbnails in Artboards panel

   I would love to be able to see a thumbnail of the artboard in the Artboard panel (similar to how you can for layers) I often have many artboards and would like to move them into a certain orders visually — not just by name.

7. Double clicking a gradient should open the gradient editor

   When a gradient is clicked in the toolbar's Fill Stroke Controls, the Fill turns black, in stead of opening the gradient editor.
   Why? It's not of any use, and contra intuitive.

   Please open the gradient editor whenever a gradient is double clicked.

8. Rename the 'Typing' history step for auto-bullet conversion to a clearer label (e.g., AutoFormat)

   Using Undo to roll back the auto conversion of bullets now works as it should (thanks to this report: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/46954429), but the history step is just called with general 'Typing', and it doesn’t add clarity.

   Compare it with something like Microsoft Word, where the step is called 'AutoFormat' — still a broad name, but much easier to spot!
   Plus, Word offers to undo the auto-formatting right there in text when typing with a widget... and it offers a way to disable it completely right THERE.
   Ai’s solution is rather blunt and cheap and lacks elegancy in this current form. Please make it better.

9. Show the consistent color picker dialog both when editing a fill and a swatch

   For some reason AI uses different color pickers in similar occasions. I would like to see a unified color picker that has all the best from the other color pickers: HSB and Grayscale and RGB/Hex or CMYK (depending on document color mode).

   In the current version double clicking a swatch brings up a completely different interface than double clicking a fill color for example.

   I would like to see a color picker that shows all I can possibly need, without having to change systems all the time via a menu. (most of the time, I use HSB and RGB to modify colors, but AI does not offer both in one view.)

   Take a look at Cinema 4d's color picker as a starting point, and improve it more to create the Adobe version (and then... put it in all CC apps! :-)

11. Allow Users to Change the Default Save Location Behavior

    In other production software, there is a preferences setting that allows users to change whether the program will open the file explorer relative to the current file's save location or to remember where it was last opened to.
    This feature is sorely missing from Illustrator and causes me loads of headaches when exporting assets for multiple clients in rapid succession.
    To make things worse, if you use the Asset Export window (Export for Screens), the "Export to:" filepath will prepopulate to the last location that that particular file saved to. If you click the folder icon to the right of it, you would expect the file explorer to open in that directory. But it does not. Instead, it opens in the last place Illustrator exported assets to, regardless of the active file.
    This is counterintuitive, and I often have to backtrack to find assets that I for sure thought I exported, but turns out they were sent to a seemingly random folder.
    Please let us choose whether or not Illustrator will open the file browser relative to the active file's location or whether Illustrator will remember where it last saved a file regardless of active file.

13. Show the number of all and selected layers in the document

    Please add an indicator showing both the total number of layers in the document and the number of layers currently selected for potential operations, in the bottom-left corner of the Layers panel.
    Attached you will find a screenshot illustrating a possible implementation of this feature.

    I am confident that you will consider this proposal carefully and evaluate the integration of this functionality into Adobe Illustrator, helping make the user experience even more efficient and intuitive.

14. New Align Setting: "Align to Nearest Artboard" (Smart Artboard Awareness)

    Illustrator’s "Align to Artboard" should be viewport-aware.

    Currently, if I’m zoomed in on Artboard 10 but Artboard 1 is technically "active," objects fly off-screen to Artboard 1 when I hit align. This is counter-intuitive and forces a constant cycle of "Undo" (Ctrl+Z) and manual clicking to re-activate the correct board.

    Proposed Solution:
    Add a setting for "Align to Nearest/Visible Artboard." The software should automatically align to the artboard the user is currently looking at or the one the object is physically overlapping, without requiring a manual click to "activate" it first.

    Make the alignment tool smart enough to understand the user's current context.

15. Continuous Line via Length and Angle

    Create a variant of the line tool that you can continuously add a segment via entering length and angle in a tool options dialogue box. It would stay open and follow you around on your screen until you click okay/finish/done. Just a small box with length and angle options.

16. Support Artboard Background Fill Color when saving to Cloud (.aic)

    1. Windows 11
    2. 30.2.1
    3. Create an .ai document and change the fill color of an artboard. Save it locally (still .ai). Close and Reopen it and observe the fill color is the same. Now save that document to the cloud (.aic). Close and Reopen it and observe the fill color is reset to transparent.
    4. I expect the artboard fill color to stay the same when saving as an .aic, just like it does as an .ai
    5. Attached

    I tried to troubleshoot it through the Illustrator Discord channel - https://discord.com/channels/634884897185595412/637037500451258369/1476316280947474583

17. Temporary multi-object alignment without grouping

    In Figma, holding Shift temporarily allows selected objects to be treated as a single unit when performing alignment actions (e.g., aligning to the artboard). This avoids the hassle of grouping and then ungrouping the objects. Can we have the same functionality in Illustrator as well?

18. A mode for Free Transform tool to hug selected points tightly

    Affinity has Transform mode for selected points (see the GIF).
    Figma recently announced a similar thing — https://x.com/figma/status/2018778936482935124

    Illustrator meanwhile allows to use Scale, Rotate, and other dedicated transform tools for a partial selection. No bounding box is allowed when Direct Selection is active.
    We can pick Free Transform and use a familiar frame to transform the partial selection... but this frame hugs the entire object. This can be useful in some cases, but not that handy in others -—like when you need to work with a rather small part of a larger artwork.
    Perhaps there should be a way to may the frame hug the selection snuggly?

20. Please bring back the search function for "Shared with you" files in Adobe Illustrator 2026

    My team uses the Adobe cloud to store and share files across the team. Looking up for older files shared is now very inconvenient as the search function for "Shared with you" files in Adobe Illustrator 2026 has been removed.
