  1. Add ability to hyperlink text

    Make text linkable to a url or email when exported to a PDF, like you can already do in InDesign.

    Only being able to do this in a PDF means that if you make an update in Illustrator and export as a PDF again, you have to re-do all your hyperlinks.

    While the bug with dropping hyperlinks added through Attributes panel while exporting as PDF was fixed in 27.6.1, the original request for adding inline text hyperlinks was never completed.

    It’s now split into a separate request here.

    Those who actively commented on the original feature request got added as voters already. If you think that ability to add, stylize, and customize hyperlinks in text is something you’d like to have — please upvote it.

  2. Custom layer colors, layer 5 yellow is killing me

    Can i please change the default layer colors so that layer 5 is not always yellow? I set up files all day long and yellow on white is ******* the eyes, would love to be able to set a default layer color for the first 5 or six new layers. Thank you.

    Illustrator removed yellow color for Layer 5 in 24.1.1, but never allowed to customize colors fully. Therefore a new request now exists, 'Allow to set custom default layer colors, with options': http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48605225

    Please upvote it if you think you need to be able to have customized default colors for layers. All those who commented here on anything else but yellow got automatically added as voters.

  3. Align

    Align should

    Automatically align to artboard if only 1 object is selected.
    Align to the last object selected when selecting multiples.
    Keyboard shortcuts. Like Corel
    Center key that aligns vertically and horizontally.

    Please upvote these existing requests:

    1. Align to artboard when only when item/group of items is selected — already completed. If you have problems with this sometimes not working, please upvote this bug repot.
    2. Align objects according to order of selection (first / last)
    3. Keyboard shortcuts for Align/Distribute commands and 'Align to' modes — partially completed
    4. Full Alignment Center Option (both horizontally and vertically)

    Please log one request / report per entry, to help the team better prioritize efforts, and don’t forget to upvote entries you like.

  4. コンテキストタスクバーの表示について

    コンテキストタスクバーの表示について、２点ほど改善要望です。
    ご検討頂けますと幸いです。

    【１】
    表示＞GPUで表示の際、画面スクロールすると、
    コンテキストタスクバーが点滅して、ものすごく気になる。
    →CPU表示だと点滅しませんが、GPUモードで使用したいため、アプリの仕様であれば、点滅しないよう改善を期待します。

    【２】
    コンテキストタスクバーの表示ON／OFFに対してショートカットを割り当てできるようにしてもらいたい。

  5. Sophisticated grouping options

    What about
    - Multilayer Groups
    - a function to Flatten a Group structure
    - a function to Ungroup the selection to individual objects in 1 go
