Add more essential features to touch mode in illustrator
Really essential features like the eyedropper tool, having the tools available at the top (like clipping mask, gaussian blur), and the essential properties panel (with pathfinder and align) as an openable tab (where colours or weight is in touch mode at the moment on the right) would be great.
This is because I often find myself switching between essentials and touch on my laptop when I am completing my coursework, which means that I am lagging behind my class and sometimes switching so frequently between tablet and laptop modes physically makes my laptop stuck on one of these modes, causing…

you should consider adding the "perspective" feature from the classic 3D options to the new realisrtic 3D! adds more depth especially if us
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

Please let the "X", "Y", "Width", "Height" input boxes in the "Properties Panel" auto adapt to the panel width
In this way, if the user wants these input boxes to completely display the values without being blocked, only need to widen the panel, and the input boxes will be widened accordingly.

Fix Variables panel scrolling to bottom when making changes
When i'm working with the variables panel, the variables panel is scrolling to the bottom of the list, every time i select a layer in the layer panel or when i link the variable to the layer. Because of this, i have to scroll back to where i was before every time i make a change. I have between 100 and 200 variables in my project, so this make the work time twice as long as it should be.
Can you please make it so that it remember the position and doesn't scroll to the bottom every time.

Make varibles column resizeable in variables panel
In the Variables panel you have two columns, "Variables" and "Objects". The column width is locked so you can't resize the width to match the length of the variables. This make it difficult to use when you have longer variables and can't see the full name of the variable. I have a lot of variables with the same name, but with an incrementing number at the end of the name. It would make it way easier to work, if i could see what variable i'm working on.

Line Segment Tool to respect selected Graphic Style by default
Currently, if I have a certain Graphic Style selected, it gets applied to objects created with Pen Tool or all shape-drawing tools (Ellipse, Rectangle, Polygon, Star).
This doesn’t work this way with line-drawing tools (Line Segment, Arc, Spiral, Grids…). Or rather it does, only if the “Fill Line” option is turned ON in the Tool Options window. It is turned OFF by default though AND this setting is not sticky between sessions.
So with every new session, I’m back to behavior when a chosen graphic style is not applied to an object drawn with a Line Segment Tool.2 votes -
replication
Replication tool .. Replication tool is not easy enough to use .. Excuse me for mentioning the old Freehand but it had a very easy to use replication tool .. which would just select the shape and set how many times to replicate it and with mouse movement it was easy to make shapes like mandalas Beautiful and psychedelic shapes or anything that needed to be duplicated in a circle easily ... I would be very helpful if there was such a duplication tool as there was in the old software and I would use it a lot

Dynamic outline (as an effect?)
I really wish we could have a dynamic way to create outlines for strokes (with arrowheads in particular) without having to 'break' them into shapes first.
It could be an effect, for example. And yes I have tried the existing 'Outline' effects but the do nothing (or am I not using them right?).

階層が複雑なデータを作っているときに「ポイントにスナップ」では自分の意図していない部分にスナップすることがあります。
「ガイドにスナップ」を追加してガイドだけにスナップする様に出来ませんでしょうか。

Get position of center point of a pathItem, group and so on
Unfortunately there is no command in Javascript for Illustrator that allows you to read the position (x,y) of the centre of an object. This would be very helpful for many operations such as rotation and movement via Javascript.
For polygons that have their own centre point, like the triangle (3 sided polygon) this would have to be considered.Suggestion:
var vCenterpoint = getCenterpoint(vPathItem); // x,y values2 votes -
Artboards workflow could do with some streamlining.
So artboards in AI have been around for a while now, but the current workflow is pretty limited and at times frustrating.
There are 2 really big things that could do with improvement.
1 - The biggest issue I have is that there is no keyboard shortcuts to make a new artboard.
Why do I have to move my mouse over to the artboard panel and click the add artboard button.
This is way to long winded every time you want to add a new artbaord.
2 - When adding a new artboard it does not conform to the column…

Add 'Paint Brush Mode' to highlight and actually select multiple objects or groups in Layers panel
Add functionality like the view (eyeball ) icon cursor- as you drag down the list in the selection column of the layers menu, the cursor goes into "paint brush" mode and continues to select or deselect items. Also add "Select all objects and groups on highlighted layers or sub layers" to the dropdown function menu.

Would it be possible to have the find font panel be in alphabetical order, like Indesign is?
alphabetical order of fonts in the find font list, would make comparing the fonts used to an outside folder of fonts much easier.
