Make it far easier to "transform each." Especially scale and rotate. Like how it works in PowerPoint.
Make it far easier to "transform each." Especially scale and rotate. Like how it works in PowerPoint. Select multiple (ungrouped) objects. Scale or rotate one, they all scale or rotate.

Lets say I have 6 different icons and I want to scale and rotate all of them the same amount. In PowerPoint, I select all six, then use the control handles on one icon to scale and rotate it and all the others do the same thing. In illustrator, I have to select the six icons, go to Transform Each, check the Preview box, change the value in the horizontal scale, change it in the vertical scale, change the rotate value, continue nudging values until I get the desired transformation. Speaking of Transform Each, why is there no way to constrain the H and V scale?

opt+cmd+shift+D
Or right-click your selection and choose "Transform Each" from the context menu. I feel like the current dialogue addresses your needs so you might have to be more specific. Alternative you can make use of Symbols to link attributes to a single instance of an object.
