Rotation and reflection when selecting an object
When I have an object selected (left mouse is pressed down), I want to press the space bar to rotate it. This might rotate anticlockwise by 90° (so I would press the space bar three times to rotate the object clockwise by 90°). You could make the rotation angle 45° to be aligned with rotating and holding the shift key.
Also, while the object is again selected, if I press the X key, the object is reflected horizontally; pressing the Y key reflects it vertically.
These key strokes have been in use on another software program that I have used…

non destructive erase with brush tool
it would be nice if we could use the brush in a transparent mode to erase in a non destructive way.

The ability to set a line length, no matter what angle the line is on.
It would be great if there was a section in the transform panel where you could enter a length for a line (instead of setting a height and width for the bounding box).
This way it would not matter what angle the line was draw at, it could be set to a specific length.
I've currently been drawing a vertical line, setting a height and then rotating to the correct angle but it is very tedious!

Object or Group of Object Component
This feature was actually on Adobe XD, where created objects like icons can be made as components, basically users can use a component multiple times, duplicating, copy and pasting to multiple artboards, but can be edited just once and then all the component link will update automatically without updating each object individually.

Bring back opt-enter in move dialog
Select art with selection tool, hit enter for move dialog, type in parameters and hit option-enter to duplicate. You removed this feature what feels like a decade ago. Put it back in. btw-I have used illustrator professionally since Illustrator 88.

(1) Multi angled+coloured fills. (2) Shadow casting. (3) Lighting options.
I posted my wishes as an April fool's joke on IG but then realised it may be a possibility after all?

Pen Tool and Curvature Tool
All my design products are from adobe, but, to be honest the path control is very primitive. The best path control tool in every single aspect could be found in CorelDraw. I think it is gonna help if you study the CorelDraw path control tool.

Disable rotation shortcut in bounding box.
When working with small elements, the rotation tool interferes with opt+dragging to duplicate.
Rotation is not nearly as common a tool as simple manipulating/duplicating an object. Would prefer to use the Rotate tool when needed.1 vote -
Gestion des lignes et contours sur iPad
Bonjour,
Si une chose manque sur iPad c’est la gestion des lignes et des contours. Une autre chose serait bien à ajouter, c’est la peinture dynamique.

Better fine tuning blob brush
Hello,
I would like to have a better setting option for the accuracy of the blob brush. The middle setting is actually too straight for me. Lines are straightened mercilessly. If you move the slider one point to the left, they are not straightened enough. That's why it would be great to have four additional options (see screenshot, red lines).Thanks a lot

les outils sélection sont inversés !
les outils de sélection et sélection directe sont inversés !
Si on sélectionne l'outil de sélection directe (icône flèche pleine) il apparait évidé sur le plan de travail et inversement....C'est énervant !!1 vote -
disable few pixel width zoom
When I zoom in and out, I often accidentally move the mouse a tiny bit and it assumes I want to zoom in to a couple pixel area.
This has happened to me thousands of times and I have never, not once, needed to zoom into a tiny section of my work.
If the zoom plus or minus overrode the tiniest of selections that are just inadvertent miniscule movements, I think that would help people a LOT.
Also, still waiting for an export raster setting, becouse doing all this manually (render, import, place) is such a waste of time. That…

Configurar tu barra de acciones rápidas
Poder configurar tu propia barra de acciones rápidas al seleccionar uno o varios objetos, de manera que puedas tener las herramientas que más uses en función a tu trabajo.
En concreto uso con mucha frecuencia la opción “shape builder” y cada vez que tengo que realizar esa acción tengo que pulsar dos ó tres veces una vez selecciono, si estuviera en la barra de acciones flotante que aparece al seleccionar ahorraría mucho tiempo.Gracias!

Drop color
Definitely miss adobe draw.
I’d love to see it be easy to drop in colors and for there to be brushes like in adobe draw.
Also the brush/ pencil seem really glitchy and not like a natural gesture1 vote -
