ファイルごとに「スクリーン用に書き出し」プレフィックスが保存される機能
1.説明
Illustratorの「スクリーン用に書き出し」につけられるプレフィックスをaiファイルごとに保存できるようにしてほしい。
プロジェクトAのaiファイルを編集→プロジェクトA用のプレフィックスで書き出し
プロジェクトBのaiファイルも続けて編集→書き出し→プレフィックスだけAになるのが困る。2.ファイル管理が楽になる、プロジェクトをまたぐ作業のときにミスが減る。

Effect > Distort & transform > Stacking order
Sometimes you have a group of objects that are not in the correct stacking order, and you have to expand the effects that generate these objects to fix it.
I propose a new effect that offers a few options to change this:
- reverse stacking order
- stack left-to-right, right-to-left, up-to-down, down-to-up, or maybe just an angle dial for stacking order? that'd be super useful for "I drew three balls and blended them to make a necklace and I don't want to have to split it into two blends to make the right ball be the nearest one".
- smallest-to-largest, largest-to-smallest

A way to make a pattern's location match where it was originally created instead of aligning with the ruler origin
I like to use large patterns to create effects like "rays centered on a focal point of the image" in my artwork. Or to work around the fact that clipping masks can't have complex appearance stacks. These sort of patterns work best when they are precisely aligned to the artwork.
Currently the workflow to do this is as follows:
- Create some art to be a pattern that aligns with some important part of my drawing. Select it and do Object > Pattern > Create.
- Give it a name and close the pattern creation window.
- Make a large rectangle with this…

Display names for character alternates
When a singular character is selected, Illustrator shows Character Alternates menu (if one has the option enabled in Preferences > Type).
But while some glyphs look distinct enough, some are obscure.
These have names, Unicode codes (these are displayed in Glyphs)...
What’s good seeing three similar spaces? How can I choose properly from two similar looking small 'a'-s, as shown in the screenshot attached?
Why can’t I see what these character alternates are when I hover over them?2 votes -
Allow to have zero extension value for the Extension Lines for Dimensions
For some reason there is a minimal value we can set for extensions above the dimension line — 0,01 pt.
I want it to be zero.2 votes -
Gradient across open stroke should 'run around' round caps
I think the gradient across a stroke with a round cap should "run around" the cap at the end of the open stroke (see a screenshot).

寸法ツールの補助線を付けない
寸法表示を｢付けない｣モードが欲しいです。
現状では｢補助線を隠す｣項目がありますが、アピアランス分割して非表示オブジェクトの解除をすると補助線が現れてしまいます。
作成する図面の都合上、補助線があると困るので｢隠す｣ではなく｢付けない｣選択肢が欲しいです。

Make fractal noise gradient
One of my favorite gradient types from the time of Xara was 'Fractal Nosie' and 'Fractal Plasma'. No fine-tuning, but pretty handy for adding quick perturbance, especially when used as a transparency mask.
It’s still there.
Today, VectorStyler app offers a similar gradient type: https://www.vectorstyler.com/documentation/gradients/We can do something similar using freeform gradient in Ai... but try to scale or rotate control points all at once, I dare you.
Also please take a look at this related request:

Allow to create a new file from a selection on canvas or Layers
Can't create new files from layers or groups, gotta select everything and create a file, instead of just creating an artboard from by the file dimensions copied.

"Show me the offending object" button in the appearance error dialog for [IABD] and [!out] errors
I really would kinda love it if there was a "Show me the offending object" button on the "Error processing appearance" requestor next to the "OK" button.

Eliminate the 2 different size canvas modes
There are scaling issues in large size canvas mode. For instance, when creating a file in large size canvas mode and saving as PDF with trim marks, the trim marks will be scaled up 1000%. Instead of them remaining .375", they scale up to 3.75" (http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/44115801)
Additionally, several third party plug ins do not work properly in large size canvas mode because of this scaling issue.
Ideally, Illustrator should eliminate the 2 different canvas modes and simply allow any document to be scaled up to the same dimensions as "large size canvas" mode but leave all scaling as…

Request: Add Custom Font Sizes to Text Size Dropdown in Illustrator
It would be great if Adobe Illustrator allowed users to save custom font sizes (such as 150pt, 200pt, etc.) to the default text size dropdown in the Character panel. Currently, while you can manually enter large font sizes, they don't appear in the dropdown for future use. Allowing custom sizes to be added to the dropdown would save time, improve workflow consistency, and make working with large text sizes more efficient. Thank you for considering this feature!

SVG export settings - outline stroke option

View Transparency Grid only in artboards
Like other users I've encountered here, I find the whole-window Transparency Grid to be a significant distraction. It'd be helpful to be able to at least opt to show the grid only within artboards, and even better to toggle the grid for specific artboards (see screenshot).

Custom marquee shapes for Direct Selection tool like circle, star, rectangle, etc.
The Direct Selection tool would follow the logic of creating an individual shape. A marquee that can be scaled, moved and also rotated live would be a awesome feature.

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.2 votesLatest 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.

Illustrator Share For Review | "Actual Size" Page View
In share for review, the previews allow the viewer to change the page view to “Fit Window Width” or “Fit Full Page” in the lower-right corner.
We need an “Actual Size” view setting. It would solve issues such as unwanted enlargement of small designs and checking details on large designs.
BONUS: The ability to select a default view in our Share For Review settings would be the icing on the cake!

Allow to assign several colors as transparent for Image Trace
Currently Image Trace allows to pick one color to ignore and replace it with full transparency. Perhaps some users might need to pick more than one color.
UI in other places offers to setup several color chips, seems like a consistent move to allow the same here.2 votes -
Predictive text and optional ai copy adapted to text box design sizes
I would like to have predictive text, while I write it can complete the word like it happens in my phone.
Also once you have my copy done, have a menu to have other copy options, translations and changes of copy adapted to cover more or less space in my design.2 votes -
Add more modifier keys for Control bar to show alternate color UI
Currently the behavior of the Color UI in Properties is broken:
http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/48691379Clicking the swatch drop down opens the different swatch color options.
Please update with these shortcut key options:
Shift + clicking the swatch drop down opens the Color Mixer options.
Option + clicking the swatch drop down opens the gradient options.
Command + clicking the swatch drop down opens the pattern options.2 votes
