Auto Layout, Grid layout & Padding
Auto layout is a property you can add to shapes and many things, to create designs that grow to fill or shrink to fit, and reflow as their contents change.
Also can add padding and margin , this help us when we design C.V., Menu, branding guideline & ...ect
Grid layout easly and helpfully.

Yeah this would be a game-changer for Illustrator and needs more attention.
Adding responsive behaviour in the form of an auto-layout function similar to Figma.
Allowing users to create designs that automatically adjust and align elements based on resizing.
Making workflows more efficient and design consistency easier to maintain.
This post needs a bump for real.
This could change a lot of people's daily lives 🙏

I switched to Figma, just because Adobe Illustrator lacks all these vital features for creating advanced layouts

I agree this is really missing in Illustrator, where so much things have to be placed manually one by one. Even in InDesign you can insert objects within a text box or hack something out with tables.
Reference implementations:
– Flex in CSS
– Flex layout in Penpot
– Auto layout in Figma
– Smart layout in Xd -

Would love this. Illustrator is great because of the many effects it offers, but it lacks this 1 feature that would make it great for UI mockups.

It would be great to have the possibility to constrain object dimensions and distances inside groups according to their parent or the whole canvas. This function is a basic setting in many UI/UX applications (responsive behaviour for layout, buttons, etc.)
