1. When Gradient Tool is active, make holding Alt switch to Eyedropper tool

   If we hold Alt when Gradient tool is active and there is a stop selected, we can click with Alt in Swatches to apply it to the stop (although no cursor feedback or hint signals it can be done). Besides this function, Alt+click is used for nothing...

   Use it to temporarily switch to the Eyedropper tool. This is a standard approach in many apps, it’s fast to learn, and just convenient.

2. GPU performance is not working properly

   GPU performance should improve efficiency when drawing complex objects, but the behavior has been delayed since CC 2018 (version 22).

   The file created in CC 2015.3 (version 20) is test sample.
   If you select a created object and move it with the mouse, the result will be completely different.

   2015.3 / 2017: Drawing delay does not occur when GPU performance is ON
   2018 / 2019 / 2020: GPU performance ON causes drawing delay, OFF is faster

   The confirmed environment is Windows 10 1909 + Intel Core i7-6700HQ + GeForce GTX 950M.
   In addition, although it is another data, the delay has been confirmed in Windows 10 1909 + Intel i5-8300H + GeForce GTX 1050.
   Therefore, it is not considered to be due to the environment or data.

   Original ((Japanese)
   Title : GPUパフォーマンスが適正に働いていない

   複雑なオブジェクトの描画ではGPUパフォーマンスによる効率向上が図れるはずですが、CC 2018（バージョン22）以降は動作が遅延するようになっています。

   サンプルとしてCC 2015.3（バージョン20）で作成したファイルを用意しました。
   作成されているオブジェクトを選択し、マウスで移動させた場合の結果がまるで異なります。

   2015.3/2017：GPUパフォーマンスONの状態で描画の遅延は発生しない
   2018/2019/2020：GPUパフォーマンスONでも描画の遅延が発生し、OFFのほうが速い

   確認した環境はWindows 10 1909+Intel Core i7-6700HQ+GeForce GTX 950Mです。
   また別データですが、Windows 10 1909+Intel i5-8300H+GeForce GTX 1050でも遅延は確認しています。
   よって環境やデータ固有によるものではないと考えます。

3. Add data attributes to elements for SVG export

   I'm using data attributes quite a bit these days, and have been experimenting with using them in SVG. They work very well, as a way of adding metadata or parameters to elements that can later be read by javascript/ES.
   But (of course) no support in illustrator for this feature. Worse, if I add them with another tool, then open the SVG in Illustrator, they get stripped from the document entirely. This is just stupid.

   Best of all, a data-attributes panel, very similar to the variable panel, but without the redraw bugs. Workflow something like this:

   Select an art object.
   Go to/Open data-attributes panel.
   Click + or select Add attribute from popup corner menu.
   Add (e.g.) "mood" with value "happy"
   Export SVG

   Corresponding element has data-mood="happy" in the markup, which can ne retrieved via javaScript.

   This would not just make me happy, but would also be very useful.

4. Allow Customization of The Features In Properties Panel (2018)

   I would like to be able to rearrange (customize) the features in the new 2018 properties panel. I want to be able to add, remove and rearrange the features in the panel. This way the panel will only shows what I want it to show and get ride for the stuff I don't use. I would like to at least be able to collapse what I don't use.

5. Allow to marquee select within an area type text box without creating a new text object

   Marquee Select with text box in scope creates a new text box. This did not occur in Illustrator in the last 5+ years that I have been using it. This is relevant for users like me who do more text editing in Illustrator.

   in 2017 and prior, when you had a text box in scope that you were editing text in, you could marquee select the text or portions of it by starting a click outside of the text area. Now, in 2018, this will create a new text box every time. The result is that it is noticeably more difficult and annoying to edit text in a text box.

   Bug fix would be for the 2017 behavior (and prior years) to be restored.

7. Allow to change the UI language inside the program

   Add language option inside the program, instead of using system standard language. And can't use Creative Cloud application. My school have already application from Adobe which is install before hand. And applications has not been added to the list in Creative Cloud, there for I can't edit language.

   Just add option to change language inside the program.

8. Prevent Pen and Pencil tools from auto-connecting when a modifier is pressed

   Sometimes I want to draw a new path WITHOUT connecting it to existing one (and without locking artwork). I'd like to have a modifier key that will temporarily disable auto-connecting.

9. Allow Artboards to snap to the grid

   I'm working on a heavily modular layout and the modules are snapping to the grid nicely. However when duplicating the artboard, the artboard will not snap to the grid.

   This therefore throws the modules slightly off the grid as the Artboard position has to be matched by eye.

   I've also downloaded and tried the CC 2019 pre-release and it still does not allow snapping of artboards to the grid.

   Please fix this, thanks.

10. Drag CC Library colors to Gradient panel

11. Better anti-aliasing

    Long time ago I abandoned Xara and moved to Illustrator full-time.
    I managed to solve all problems I had encountered with, but several things still bug me.

    One of them is this:
    https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-bugs/suggestions/31525333-minus-front-on-grouped-objects
    https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-bugs/suggestions/32954797-pathfinder-must-work-with-group-as-a-single-object

    The other one is a crude antialiasing.

    See attached images.
    Zara puts more shades of gray to show the slope of test line, while AI leaves more uniformly filled areas. It gets more noticeable when angle gets sharper.
    Changing anti-alising options doesn't help.

    Please, make anti-aliasing better.

12. File Specific "Export For Screen" Settings (mainly location)

    As a designer with multiple files,
    I want the ability to set the export for screens folder per file,
    So that I don't have to constantly relocate the location of the output for each file I open up. It would be helpful to get **** done.

    • When exporting a file the location identified for the first time is saved for subsequent times I access to export.

13. Make grids more useful

    I'm a fan of grids. I use the grid almost always whenever I need one.

    I have to use the default 'In Back' grid and turn 'Overprint preview' on, to make the grid overlay my art, so I can see what I'm doing and where I'm snapping (because the cursor does not give any feedback about this).

    But the method it's not perfect because of bugs I reported here and there.

    So I propose to improve options we have.
    Allow users to set grid’s color (check) and transparency, give an option to define line width — some monitors are too dense and huge to have 1px line.
    It could be useful for dark designs, when the overprint-grid trick doesn't do much.

15. Allow more math operations than one, support fractions input, support calculations in all numerical fields

    It's handy when in Illustrator you have units set to picas and you input pixels just by adding the px, but not so handy when you need to add a fraction and because you don't know you have to calculate the value first, instead of for example typing 1+9/16 and not 1.5625.
    Other example is when you're setting guides or dividing grids: you need to break a space in x times or create a pattern.
    CorelDraw has it and saves a huge chunk of time.

16. Highlight an anchor point used as a key object

    Keying an anchor point is a lesser known option for aligning and distributing.

    Clicking an object in a selection to key it is a thing that can be learnt by a chance (that is how I learned it myself), but using the latest selected point as a key is not a behaviour that is easily noticed.

    The change of the mode is marked only via the small icon in the corner of Align panel, and nothing else on the artboard tells about it — compare this to the fat edge a key object uses.

    Can you try to make a key point somewhat more visible?

17. プロパティパネルのアピアランス部分に濃度設定を追加してほしい

    現状のアピアランスパネルでは塗りや線の色を設定する際に塗りのアイコン部分をクリックするとスウォッチが開き素早くカラーを変更可能です。しかし、そのスウォッチに対して薄い色が欲しい場合、開いたパネルで１回ボタンをクリックすることによりカラーパレット表示に切り替えた上での調整が必須です。
    この手順はワンクッション増加するためにプロパティパネル上の不透明度の設定を調整することで代替してしまうというワークフローが増加しています。これはデータ上に安易に透明効果を適用した部分を増加させる事に繋がり、適切な設定を施されないままトラブル誘発の原因となってしまっています。
    なにより、不透明度を下げるという事はその下の情報を表示する事に繋がりますから色を薄く設定するという意図からはかけ離れた行為であると言えるでしょう。
    また、以下のチュートリアルにおいても色を薄くする目的でに安易に不透明度の利用を勧めています。

    https://helpx.adobe.com/jp/illustrator/how-to/basics-essentials-workspace-illustrator.html

    この説明はまずいです。塗りの濃度調整及び不透明度の設定はそれぞれ明確な使い所が存在し、適切に使い分けるべき機能です。

    さて、ここで提案なのですが、InDesignの様にプロパティパネルのアピアランス部分の「塗り」と「線」の項目に濃度の設定項目を追加していただきたいと思います。
    InDesignとはスウォッチの性質が異なるのですが、設定したスウォッチに対して濃度の項目で設定した数値を単純に割合として計算した数値のカラーを適用出来れば問題ないと考えます。
    添付の機能追加提案分の画像の赤で囲んだ部分のイメージのようにしてはいかがでしょうか。
    こうする事でユーザーは簡単に塗りや線の濃度を調整可能となります。

    ぜひご検討頂けたらと思います。

19. Support SVG text-anchor styling on import

    I often copy SVGs that I created with JavaScript (through D3.js) from a browser into Illustrator to continue working on it there. However, the text-anchor setting (left, middle or right aligned) does not come through and it is always left aligned, although the position might seem like it is middle or right aligned. Once you choose a different font or font-size, the mismatch between the original text align and what Illustrator has made of it becomes very apparent and can be quite the chore to adjust.

    It would be great if Illustrator would properly handle the text-anchor style setting of any read in SVG :)
