Same functionalities as shown here in the subscribe tool

Basically the 'Circle by Points Tool' in Subscribe should be a functionality added to the Ellipse Tool. And the 'Arch by Points Tool' in Subscribe should be a functionality added to the 'Line Segment Tool' in Ai as well. These are common functions in in cad programs and need to be added to Illustrator natively to improve vector building.

Graphic technology is not upgraded as it should be. As Von Glitchka, the globally well-known vector artist is calling for action, Adobe Illustrator(team) should immediately thke this for granted. Obviously they shouldn't copy other's company's IP. But they could build similar functions natively. It's a stong call Adobe! respond to it as quick as possible.

I do want to say this because in my haste to answer a question and respond to a user struggling with Ai I do want to make something clear. In no way should Adobe merely copy another companies IP functionality. But they could certainly address this type of building in their own intuitive way and implement it to make the whole process of creating vector art easier natively. I should have clarified that better, I didn't so I apologize for any confusion.

Much simpler to use with those tools.

Like most tools in Adobe Illustrator many are released and never touched again or improved upon. The ellipse tool would be great with this functionality and the line segment tool which I almost never use would become very useful with this feature. Come on engineers, you know this because I showed you both methods in New Delhi.
