"Check Spelling" Back or Undo Last Button
Add a back button or Undo Last button in the "Check Spelling" dialog box. Many times I accidentally skip a word that needs correction and I have to restart "Check Spelling" from the beginning.
Other times I accidentally pick the wrong correction and have to quit "Check Spelling" undo the fix and restart the process all over again.
Thanks!

auto arrange artboards on new
First, the workspace is Too **** small at this point, especially when working in pixels. And someone out there assumes 72dpi still. Stop it!
I'm creating 4K artboards to explore some ideas. I create 2 of them. And it won't let me create a 3rd without rearranging. Who's idea was That!?!?
The first thing you should do is just move the stinkin' workspace. What's with all the room on the left? Look, if you only work left to right, why are you always trying to center the artboards in the workspace? You'll never use the space above or to the…

Could there be a more logical place for show center and path direction than the Attributes panel
The Attributes panel seems like the junk drawer of panels. Wouldn't the show center check box seem more at home in the transform panel, and the path direction seem better suited for stroke or pathfinder panel. Just one less panel taking up space on the artboard.

Circle-tool — subdivision functionality with arrow keys
As the "Effect > Stylize > Round Edges..." is a little bit flawed if working with short sections and third-party-scripts often show the same problem that short sections rounded often are not a circular section but some weird hyberbole of sorts I often use Circles and subdivisions of those as a stand-in if I need a round corner with a fixed radius. Up to now i have to manually draw a line from the center, rotate it by the angle I want and subdivide it with the knife.
If circles could behave a bit like the polygon tool and its…2 votes -
Lithological Swatches
When I want to use the USGS lithological swatches, I usually have difficulty finding them. Could all these be placed in a top level menu?

Enable the ablility to keep swatch catagories in my tool panel.
I would love to keep tool swatches in my tool panel. I do have the ability to take one and put it off to the side among my tools, but when I restart Illustrator the tab is gone leaving me to conclude this is not a supported feature. I use one particular swatch category a lot and this would save me time.

Assets panel multiple selection with just mouse
I want to use mouse and "Ctrl" to select assets I want to export in Asset Export panel, with a frame / marquee. But I can't do that. Mouse works only as per 1 selection. Yes, I can hold "Ctrl" and click on different assets or use Shift to select some, but that not useful for me. Sometimes I want to select big groups of assets located at the beginning and end of the assets list, so I just want to hold "Ctrl" and play with mouse easily and fast by selecting any items.
It's like you just holding "Ctrl"…2 votes -
Show slices names
I'm looking for a simple but very useful option for slices:
"Show slice name"Currently in setting of Illustrator there are only option:
"Show slice numbers", - file attached.
But it's doesn't give me anything actually.
I've created names for each slice and I need to check these names visually, without need to select each slice and goto it slice settings..2 votes -
Illustrator Zeichenflächen
Es wäre wünschenswert, mehrere Zeichenflächen gleichzeitig markieren zu können. Außerdem mehrere ausgewählte zeichenflächen gleichzeitig verschieben zu können oder über das Ausrichten Werkzeug oder Koordinaten organisieren zu können.

An option for the pen tool to behave like Photoshop
As a Photoshop user most of the time, I would find it would be much easier to have bezier curve anchors not delete themselves when closing a path or reselecting a path. It would also be great if nudging points with the arrow keys would not interrupt and unselect the current path.
Some preference to toggle these behaviors would be fantastic!

Improvement request for Illustrator Dimension tool usability
As a sign designer, I would like to request the following feature enhancements.
I would like Illustrator’s Dimension tool to be easier to configure.
Specifically, it would be helpful if the scale could be set individually for each object, and if settings such as color, font size, and line weight could be adjusted more easily.At present, I am adding dimensions to more than 50 objects with different scales. However, I need to manually open a settings window for each object to adjust the scale, which is time-consuming and makes the tool difficult to use.
Thank you for your consideration.

FEATURED AND GENERATIVE AI PANELS ON THE HOME SCREEN HAVE GOT TO GO
THERE NEEDS TO EITHER BE AN OPTION TO TURN OFF THE AGGRESSIVE, DISRUPTIVE, AND WORKFLOW-PROHIBITIVE "FEATURED" AND "GENERATE" PANELS ON THE HOME SCREEN FORCING USERS TO SCROLL DOWN TO ACCESS RECENT FILES EVERY TIME A USER RETURNS TO THE HOME SCREEN.
THIS IS A MASSIVE SOFTWARE ENGINEERING/UX/UI OVERSIGHT AND ALREADY THOUSANDS OF USERS ARE DEMANDING THIS BE REMEDIED.
ADD ME TO THOSE STANDING TO BE COUNTED-- THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IN THE VERY NEXT UPDATE OR PATCH. SEE SCREENSHOT FOR DIRECT REFERENCE.1 vote -
Allow isolating a blended object
I can isolate a blend, to avoid selecting things around/above/below it.
This includes a spine (if exists) and all the blended objects.If I want to isolate further, to edit a single object, without affecting other objects in the blend or the spine, Ai won’t let me.
Please allow isolating further, like in a group.Related requests:

The shortcut key D to save before closing, in Italian country should be the N key
The shortcut key "D" in a window "save before closing" to select "D"on't Save", in Italian country should be the "N" key for the answer "N"on salvare".

Add Transparency/Opacity setting to Stroke panel
Add Transparency/Opacity setting to Stroke panel.
Is fast and intuitive, in stead of going through the Appearance hazzlel for a simple setting.
Strokes should have separate Opacity settings, so a Path can have Fill and Stroke with different Opacities.1 vote -
Auto-toggle Display Print Size at 100% Zoom by RGB/CMYK document; avoid manual Prefs switching
Illustrator should learn how to pick the proper screen resolution based on the intent of the document... that is auto-disable the 'Display Print Size at 100% Zoom' option perhaps for RGB-based docs for screens and enable it for CMYK-based to-be-print documents.
I create a lot of BOTH, and I have no idea why should I manually toggle this in Prefs EVERY time I switch between opened documents.1 vote -
Linked file is not shown like it should be
I also found this issue while linking the file between the other apps (InDesign/Premiere Pro).
Please see the attached pictures for reference.I normally linked the file(s) and lay on another size to make a production.
It's easy to modify the original (one file), and the other linked files will be updated.Now I need to export to a photo and re-link the file.
Why are the advantage functions continuing to disappear?
Including the Cloud Storage, it is useless. Cannot share or download the file. Modifying the file on the cloud is a nightmare (super lack).

Help user to show open panels
Sometimes UI panels are covered by others. When choosing those panels from the menu, a blue outline hints on their position.
Why not bring it to front? in 99,99 % of the cases, that is what users want.1 vote -
'Click to copy value' button in Color doesn’t indicate the value gets copied clearly
I don’t like how the 'Click to copy value' button in Color panel is designed — when it gets pressed, it selects the value and that’s it. It makes us think we NEED to copy it, and the button just selects... other editors in similar or related conditions show a shy message or change the icon for the button, indicating the copying happened.
