Make clipping process easier, more like in Photoshop and Affinity Designer
Could you simplify the clipping mask process making it as in Affinity Designer or invent your one please
Thanks

It would be great if there was an easier way to clip in illustrator. A feature similar to Photoshop (alt-click), affinity (drag to object to clip) or procreate. Having to duplicate an object then move it above the item to be clipped requires extra, unneeded steps and makes it difficult if you need to now change the underlying object and mask.

Make clipping masks easier to create, use and edit. More like the layer/clipping masks in photoshop.

While this is not done, you can try to use scripts by Nimbling:

I have wrapped them in actions and assigned to hotkeys, they work pretty fine, although not like the dragging from Affinity or Move Inside / Outside commands...
