'Saved' menu in New Document window should show my custom templates
- Right now only templates from Adobe Stock show up here. It's counterintuitive. I would like to have my custom templates saved here. Otherwise they are relatively hidden at the bottom of the 'Web' or 'Print' lists.
- I would also like to be able to quickly save a template right from the new document window (not have to make a document, save as template, get permissions error, fix permissions, save template).
- The new document window is VERY SLOW to open. Legacy is instant and the lag is really frustrating.
- Please for the love of creative gods, fix the High Sierra/CC bugs. My programs crash my entire computer several times a day. Thank you.

Adobe QA is going to the dogs. I waste so much time having to run Beta versions for broken tools that have worked for 25 years but get broken on macOS after the latest release. Really elementary stuff.
I agree with template. This is just FU weird Adobe.

It's daft that users have to jump through hoops just to use a custom template. For example banners for blogging sites.

Right now only templates from Adobe Stock show up in the 'Saved' section within the new document window.......this is sooooo counterintuitive. For the love of god can you please allow end users to save their own custom templates saved here. Seems so obvious can't believe this is an oversight from the devs.

I have several layouts I would like to have as templates.
That the top options always are templates from the store that I NEVER use is a nuiscance.
But that I canät seem to get my own templates pinned to top or hardly even visible SUCKS.Amend, please! As soon as possible.

I agree, I keep thinking about all these things I make over and over again. This seems like such a default feature . Just a quick new document for social media templates, etc. with all the sizes and details set.

I don't understand why saving and accessing custom templates isn't as easy in Illustrator as it is in Photoshop.

Even worse, on the Mac, it sends you to the 'inside the app' template folder every time, which you can't change, etc. Makes me nuts.

Hi - I use custom templates more than a 1,000 times a year. Every Illustrator template is easily located in the New Document window. Logically, you should be able to access Custom Templates there ... without drilling through More Settings - a nearly buried link - and then the Templates button - also seemingly an afterthought.
Also, in the Recent Items window, my custom templates don't include the template name; they just say [Custom] and the file dimensions. This isn't helpful if you have multiple custom templates.
I hope these features are addressed in a future update. Thanks.
