1. Make Free Distort work with images

   Free distort doesn't support many object types.
   Please make it work with images, both linked or embedded.
   I have to use envelope distortion (with embedded only, breaking link with image) each time I need to distort an image within AI.

3. Quick Look support for .ai files in MacOS

   Selecting a file in the MacOS Finder and then pressing spacebar to preview the file is one of the great features of the OS. It works with image files of many types as well as PDF files, etc. But not .ai files. Please build a Quick Look extension to add this support. Thanks.

4. 3D shadows color and opacity change

   3D effects give only a black shadow that makes 3D object's color dirty, greyish. And it looks like 90's 3D effect. Possibility to change the shadow color? Or the shadow color bases on the object's colors and thus makes the diffuse.

5. Option to disable Rotate View

   I think the new rotate view update is great if you want to work from multiple angles. But I’ve found it extremely difficult to work while using my trackpad because when ever I zoom in on my projects rotate view is automatically triggered and I have to keep going back to reset my view. As someone who works on multiple art boards at once this happens in a smaller span of time which tends to become annoying after a while.

6. Keep Layers from PDF when opening the file in Illustrator.

   We use InDesign to do packaging design, usually having multiple variations of the same general design. We then export as PDF and have some vendors who like to get .AI files instead. The problem we are facing, is that when we save the PDFs with Layers (from InDesign), they all flatten when we open the file in Illustrator. There needs to be a way to preserve the PDF layers when opening in Illustrator.

8. Notes Feature

   Create a notes panel to write notes for yourself, the next person working on your file, the print house, etc.

   The notes would pop up first thing when you open a file, and can be printed, amended, deleted etc... they could be print instructions, or time logs, or anything deemed of value to associate with the document.

   These notes would travel with the document.

9. Creative Cloud Files appear in Library Panel in Illustrator

   Currently folders and files in the Creative Cloud Files folder are local and synchronise with the cloud. They are visible on the website but are separate from Creative Cloud Libraries that we use inside Illustrator. It’s tantalisingly close to being an awesome feature, yet…

   Please join them up! Make creative cloud files visible in the libraries panel in Illustrator, and vice versa; and make the libraries available locally.

10. CMD - CMD + : Zoom to center screen as in Previous versions

    In new versions, CMD + and CMD - Zoom to center of a selected object rather than always the centre of the screen.
    It would be great if the possibility to restore the old feature was given.

    Thank you!

11. Fix the "Restore" AI Window Size when opening an AI file from File Explorer

    What we want is simple, make it so that opening an AI file from File Explorer does not change if AI is in windowed mode, or fullscreen mode.

    This has been an issue for years that disrupts the workflow of users on a regular basis. Here is an old forum thread going back as far as June 2012 further detailing this ongoing issue: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1026020

    When opening an AI file from File Explorer, Illustrator automatically Restores down to a window from Maximized mode. While the work-around, (of extending edges of Illustrator's window from edge-to-edge of the desired monitor), minimizes the impact of being reduced to windowed mode, many other users, including myself, still find ourselves re-Maximizing the window to fullscreen.

    Adobe, via Creative Cloud, recently launched the first round of 2019 Edition updates, and it would be greatly appreciated if this pesky and disruptive issue would be resolved at last.

    Thanks for your time.

12. Show number of selected objects

    It's amazing nobody asked for this.

    Just use that bottom filed that can show artboard name, current tool, etc, for saying how much objects user has selected.

    If you are as lazy as you are implementing user requests — make just this. But make it better and allow this field to show several things instead of one. And add artboard number there.

    As per the comment, this value is available in the Window > Document Info panel, when Objects option is picked in the panel’s flyout menu

13. Consistent and/or customizable number of decimals places for values

    v 22.0.1

    Most of the Features in Illustrator have inconsistent number of decimal places.
    New document size — 3 decimal places, 0.001
    Artboard size — 2 decimal places, 0.01
    Artboard position x,y (in the same window) — 1 decimal place, 0.1
    creating new rectangle — 4 decimal places, 0.0001
    Object transformation — 3 decimal places, 0.001
    Rectangle angle — 2 decimal places, 0.01
    Rounding corners — 3 decimal places, 0.001
    Split into grid — 2 decimal places, 0.01

    Offset path — 4 decimal places, 0.0001
    3d revolve angle — 0 decimal places
    3d Extrude & Bevel angles — 2 decimal places, 0.01
    3d Extrude & Bevel — extrude depth — 2 bevel height — 0 decimal places
    3d Rotation everything — 2 decimal places, 0.01
    drop shadow dialogue — 2 decimal places, 0.01
    Move dialog — 4 decimal places, 0.0001
    Pattern — 4 decimal places, 0.0001
    Blend — 2 decimal places, 0.01

    Let's look at the example user journey:

    In my workflow I am building an illustration of isometric sport games layouts.
    As Illustrator has an working area size limitation i am forced to keep the illustration in certain scale. and for smaller objects I have to create bigger versions of 3D elements, then through symbols/CC library scale them down. Otherwise the limitation in number of decimal places of the 3D effects doesn't allow me to keep the proper object shapes.

    The number of decimal places in Transform tool is 3 (minimum 0.001)

    The extrude Depth field has a soft cap for 2 decimal places and minimum value of 0.01 pt

    The Bevel Height for some unclear reason is limited to zero decimal places — 1 pt

    Both have to be 3 decimal places a minimum value of at least 0.01 pt

    v 22.0.1

    Most of the Features in Illustrator have inconsistent number of decimal places.
    New document size — 3 decimal places, 0.001
    Artboard size — 2 decimal places, 0.01
    Artboard position x,y (in the same window) — 1 decimal place, 0.1
    creating new rectangle — 4 decimal places, 0.0001
    Object transformation — 3 decimal places, 0.001
    Rectangle angle — 2 decimal places, 0.01
    Rounding corners — 3 decimal places, 0.001
    Split into grid — 2 decimal places, 0.01

    Offset path — 4 decimal places, 0.0001
    3d revolve angle — 0 decimal places
    3d Extrude & Bevel angles — 2 decimal… more

14. New artboard default to spacing set in Rearrange artboard panel

    It would be useful if when you create a new artboard that the spacing between it and the previous one reflects the spacing you have defined in the 're-arrange artboards' panel.

    Currently it defaults to something around 7/8mm which is annoying when you have artwork that spills over, as moving the artboard drags the artwork with it. I know you can turn that feature off, but the spacing defaulting to what you've already defined would still be very useful.

15. Asset Export - Ability to reorder asset list view and group items

    Asset Export - Ability to reorder asset list view:

    Love the asset export, but it'd be really useful to click/drag change the order of my asset list in Asset Export panel.

    It would also be great to have an option to group by art board. When I have a file of 20+ ad variants as their own individual artboard and want to export assets, it's a pain to keep track of things. It's also too bad that if I make a new asset later in the process, there's no way to group that asset next to the others in the same artboard, it's stuck at the bottom of the list.

18. Make option for new artboards to track their names based on existing artboards

    Create 2 artboards.
    Delete second one.
    Create new artboard—the name will be 'Artboard 3'.

    This is very-very inconvenient most of the times.
    Make it behave as Layers behave both in PS and AI!
    New artboard should check the stack and increment it's name properly.

19. Add Linux Support

    It would be great if the Adobe Apps were fully cross-platform compatible. We already have Mac support so the precedent further *Nix OS support seems reasonable. This would help me immensely as this barrier is the ONLY thing that keeps me tied to both Mac OS and Windows in addition to Ubuntu. Currently I have to deal with either:
    1. A shoddy WINE installation of the aging CS6 apps
    2. A windows VM which is painful for the type of development work I do around Illustrator

    This would also lead to some further cost / performance benefits with the systems I work on too, as those are currently locked to Windows enviros which are costly in-and-of themselves.

20. Split paths by currently applied dash settings

    Hi - I was directed here via adobe and illustrator support teams on twitter.

    I'm submitting a suggestion for a function or feature for adobe illustrator in which the user may subdivide a dashed path into individual smaller paths, by the measurement and placement of said dash style. I have seen many different suggestions and workarounds for this over the past few years but none actually execute this specific action. (Setting to .0001 stroke, expanding, then deleting excess points isn't ideal!)

    In my current role, and in our office, we design and create physical package design comps. we frequently use perforations in our designs, often with custom spacing, and use illustrator as a hand-off program for graphics and pre-cad conversion. Currently, the cad programs we use do not read or accept each other's different perforation styles (perhaps the programs see them just as that - styles, thus the paths aren't actually altered). Therefore this suggestion aims to use illustrator, the middleman program for our process, to subdivide a path via its dashes during the design process which in turn translates into a custom perforation in our final comp.

    Attached file shows how the function might look/act

    Thanks for your time!
