Bevel and Emboss effect
This is something i've waited for years and it's a feature that Photoshop had for decades, was introduced in InDesign 2.0. Even FreeHand MX featured it in 2001... but it never came to Illustrator.
When will we count with the Bevel and Emboss effect?
Why not all the Effects InDesign has featured too on Illustrator?
It will add a great bang of options to AI...
I let a screenshot of it on actual InDesign CC

Description:
Please optimize the appearance panel to make it easier to create skeuomorphic effects, such as layered shadows and glows, without complex workarounds.Why is this valuable to you?
Skeuomorphic effects are still important in industrial, branding, and product design. Illustrator’s precision is unmatched, but its current workflow for these effects is not convenient. Many professionals in my network have the same need, and this improvement would make Illustrator even more powerful for our daily work. -

Illustrator needs a panel for object effects similar to ID and PS.
Especially bevel and emboss effects. Affinity Designer has this option.
