1. Measurment Switch Toggle Button

   You know what would be awesome? When you click on any of the marque tools (for the square, cirlce, rounded rectangle, or polygon) if you could switch the measurements that you type in.

2. Bring back spacebar 'move' functionality when 'alt/option' is pressed (to access Anchor Point tool) while using Pen Tool

   I realize this is a very specific request for a small piece of functionality that was probably never very popular, but it's part of a workflow I got used to using for years, and since upgrading to CC, it no longer works.

   When creating a new path with the Pen tool, using the spacebar enables you to move the anchor point you've just created (before you release the click). Also, the Anchor Point tool allows you to do the same when you click on a point and drag the handles out.

   My issue is that the Anchor Point tool doesn't retain this functionality when you access it by using the shortcut 'alt/option' while the Pen tool is selected. I'm not sure if this was simply an oversight, or if there is a reason for disabling it. I've searched for a way to enable this tiny feature, but don't think it's possible with preferences (please let me know if I am incorrect).

   The ability use the 'alt/option' key to access the Anchor Point tool, WHILE retaining the ability to use the spacebar to toggle back and forth between moving handles and moving the point itself - makes for a very efficient use of the pen tool by minimizing clicks to switch back and forth between tools.

   Since the Anchor Point tool still allows this functionality when selected directly, I don't see why it shouldn't act the same when accessed through the 'Pen tool + alt/option' shortcut, -like it did in CS5.

   Please bring it back!!!
   Thank you :)

   Resolved (Comments Open)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

   As per comment.

   You have to release the Option/Alt key first after dragging out the handles, and then start holding Spacebar to reposition the point.

3. Rotate tool - centering bullseye needs to be larger

   So it's easier to grab, if you don't get your mouse exactly, directly on it to move it, everything rotates where you don't want it

4. Double Click last point to close a shape with the pen tool.

   When making a shape with the pen tool, double clicking the last point made should close the shape, instead of having to go to the first point manually.

5. Randomizer

   We've all come across a time when we needed to repeat an element, but it needs to be transformed slightly different in each instance, whether that be position, rotation, reflection, scale or shearing. So, I propose a randomizing tool/function that you could use to make that happen. First you draw the elements you wanted to be randomly affected, then draw a shape to enclose them all. Select "Randomize" and they become something like a group.. You select one, and they're all selected. You could transform one, and the amount that you transformed it would be the limit any of them could be transformed.

   So, if you had 20 circles and you wanted them all to be slightly sized differently, you could Randomize them all, then select the "group" and transform the scale to increase to 105%. This would make them increase anywhere from 100.00% to 105.00%, since they're already at 100%

   It would be fun and useful!

6. Continuous Line via Length and Angle

   Create a variant of the line tool that you can continuously add a segment via entering length and angle in a tool options dialogue box. It would stay open and follow you around on your screen until you click okay/finish/done. Just a small box with length and angle options.

7. A mode for Free Transform tool to hug selected points tightly

   Affinity has Transform mode for selected points (see the GIF).
   Figma recently announced a similar thing — https://x.com/figma/status/2018778936482935124

   Illustrator meanwhile allows to use Scale, Rotate, and other dedicated transform tools for a partial selection. No bounding box is allowed when Direct Selection is active.
   We can pick Free Transform and use a familiar frame to transform the partial selection... but this frame hugs the entire object. This can be useful in some cases, but not that handy in others -—like when you need to work with a rather small part of a larger artwork.
   Perhaps there should be a way to may the frame hug the selection snuggly?

9. Dimension Tool option that creates appropriate size lines, arrows, text, based on the art measured

   I work within a wide range of sizes, from very small to very large. 9 times out of 10 I'll go to use the dimension tool and find that the lines, arrows, text, etc. are far too large or small. I'll then go through the tedious process of deleting the dimensions, taking a wild guess that the new input sizes will do the trick, and try again. I like all the detailed controls and don't wish for them to go away, but I'd love the option for a more intuitive sizing result based upon whatever I'm measuring. for example, if I'm measuring a five inch shape, it should know not to use a 12 pt or 120 pt font, but something more fitting, like 40 pt. Maybe there could be a checkbox within the setting for "intuitive sizing".

10. A 'scale object' switch next to 'scale corners' and 'scale strokes & effects'.

    Sometimes I want to scale just an object's strokes and effects without scaling the object - for example, if I've got an 'iris' graphic style that combines multiple fills and strokes to create a stylized iris of an eye, that I created for one size of eye, and would like to use for a closeup drawing.

    Currently I would have to do something like this:

    1. draw a path with the 'iris' style, realize it's designed for a very different scale
    2. turn on scale strokes & effects
    3. rescale the path to be larger
    4. turn off scale strokes & effects
    5. rescale the path back down to roughly its original size
    6. maybe go back to step 2 if the size needs further adjustment
    7. maybe redefine the style or define a new one with a name like "iris closeup" so I don't have to do this again

    I would like to be able to do this instead:

    1. draw a path with the 'iris' style, realize it's designed for a very different scale
    2. turn on scale strokes & effects, turn off scale object
    3. rescale just the strokes & effects, maybe fiddle with the scale a few times until I get it right
    4. maybe redefine the style or define a new one with a name like "iris closeup" so I don't have to do this again

    ---

    Possibly it would be a good idea to make it impossible to have all of the scale object/corners/strokes & effects off at once; I would suggest that 'scale object' should be the one that comes onn when you try to turn them all off at once.

    ---

    It might also be nice to add the ability to hold down some key or another while scaling to toggle scaling objects/corners/strokes & effects, similar to the way holding down ~ lets you toggle the state of the 'transform patterns' switch with some transformation tools. Offhand I would say this ability belongs on the Scale tool, dragging the handles of the Free Transform too, and on the handles of the Bounding Boxes; I am making this list because the Free Transform and Bounding Box still don't understand the ~ key to toggle pattern transformation after many years of existance...

11. Add Biology & Scientific Diagram Tools for Easy Cell and Medical Illustrations

    As an illustrator specializing in biology, microbiology, and scientific educational diagrams, I often find it time-consuming and challenging to create natural-looking cells, organelles, biological textures, and clean labels within Adobe Illustrator. To improve workflow and accuracy, I propose that Adobe adds a dedicated set of toolbar tools designed specifically for biological and scientific illustrations, focusing on ease of use, organic shapes, and diagramming features.

    Suggested Tools Include:

    Organic Blob Tool: Create irregular, smooth cell shapes with adjustable wobble and roundness.

    Cell Chain Tool: Draw linked cells or bacteria chains with customizable spacing and size.

    Pseudopod Tool: Add flowing, arm-like extensions for visualizing amoebas or cellular movement.

    Membrane Ripple Tool: Generate subtle wavy edges to mimic membranes or cell walls.

    Cell Texture Fill Tool: Fill cells with natural biological textures like cytoplasm or granules.

    Nucleus Tool: Easily place nuclei or organelles centered inside cells.

    Cilia Brush Tool: Paint fine hair-like cilia or flagella projections from edges.

    Cross Section Tool: Draw dashed sectional lines with arrows and labels for anatomy diagrams.

    Label Connector Tool: Create snapping leader lines with easy label placement for diagrams.

    Microscope View Tool: Apply circular magnification overlays with blur outside for micrographs.

    Force Vector Tool: Draw arrows representing flows or directional forces scaled by magnitude.

    Data Plot Brush: Sketch rough graphs that snap cleanly to axis-aligned charts.

    Molecular Cluster Tool: Generate clusters of atoms or molecules with bonded shapes.

    Field Line Tool: Illustrate magnetic, electric, or fluid flow lines around objects smoothly.

    Radiation Emission Tool: Show particle or wave emissions radiating from points.

    Circuit Path Tool: Draw technical flow lines with snap-to-grid elbows for pathways.

    Axis Label Tool: Quickly create labeled graph axes with ticks and units.

    Tissue Matrix Tool: Fill areas with fibrous or mesh-like biological textures.

    Vein & Branch Tool: Create branching structures like veins, roots, or neural networks with adjustable density and angles.

    Specimen Label Tool: Add smart snapping labels with leader lines for specimens or cell parts.

    Benefits:

    Speeds up the creation of scientific and biological illustrations

    Reduces reliance on manual anchor editing or complicated plugins

    Enables clear, professional, and natural diagrams for education and publication

    Supports educators, researchers, and medical illustrators with specialized tools

    Please consider adding these toolbar tools to Illustrator to make it the go-to app for biological and scientific illustrations

12. Editable text in dimensions

    Please let designer edit the text inside the dimensions. Sometimes for mockup purpose is not possible to set a proper scale and if you place a dimension obviously the size has to be changed. Now you need to expand the aspect to let the text be editable. It would be great if the text can be editable by default.
    There is no worries for people with right scales since the value will be correct, but it will be a smart edit for others who have to change it.

13. Allow to cut path with a drag rather than a click when using Scissors

    I want the Scissors tool to be able to cut paths like the Knife does, with a click-and-drag, splitting a path at an intersection of straight/freeform (straight by default) drawn line with a path (ideally prioritizing selected ones over others, like requested here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/36111436)

    I’m rather tired of seeing this loud modal dialog when I don’t have Smart Guides enabled and miss a line (because the tool doesn’t have enough feedback by modern times’ standards: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/44725546)

    Take a look at the fake GIF I made to show how it should work.
    A single click should still work.
    This new option should have a tweakable tolerance, a minimal distance we need to drag to get it detected as a drag-cut.
    Probably it should allow to choose if it should make first cut only or detect all intersections with a cut line.

    No, Knife tool behaves differently, compare yourself.

    And finally make this screaming message into a shy message.
    I still want to get one, but not as disruptive. Take a look at this request:
    Make ability to make warnings show in background and not in dialogue windows

15. Need Save As... in Edit Toolbar options

    I use saved toolbars, but they are tedious to create because when you click New toolbar... you get a blank toolbar and then have to add each tool one by one. I would like to open an existing toolbar (like Advanced) and have the option to Save As... under a new name - then, I can remove the tools I don't want and save it. Better to work from a starting point, than have to start from scratch.

16. Scale tool with value input and custom anchor

    I'm not necessarily looking for a script—I’m just curious if a tool could be developed to enhance Illustrator’s Scale tool. Specifically, I’d love the ability to input a custom scale value (e.g., uniformly 125%, 100% height, 20% width, etc.) while also being able to position a custom anchor point, as currently available in the Scale tool.

    I understand that the Transform Each function allows users to select individual objects, input values, and place an anchor point. However, this feature has limitations:

    The anchor point can only be placed within the object's bounds.
    To uniformly scale multiple objects, users must group them first, apply scaling, and then ungroup—adding unnecessary steps.
    I see a clear opportunity for improvement by integrating Transform Each features directly into the Scale tool. A simple checkbox allowing users to scale objects individually from their centers would make the tool significantly more powerful. Of course, I say "simple" without knowing the underlying complexities of Illustrator’s scaling system—perhaps that’s why these tools are separate in the first place.

    That said, I rarely use the Scale Options panel because Transform Each is generally more useful. The only reason I still use the Scale tool is its anchor feature. An additional note and one quite important, since Transform Each is only accessible through the right-click menu, many newcomers might overlook it, assuming the side panel contains all available scaling options.

    Would love to hear thoughts on whether this kind of enhancement would be feasible!

17. Allow to customize created dimensions more: move and style text, reposition lines, change units and scale, etc.

    The functionality of the Dimension Tool needs to be improved. I think this tool should be made even more customizable. Example: Numbers and fonts should be able to move, rotate, change its style (add stroke or box it). We need to be able to easily change the units of measurement directly in the settings of the tool itself. Also lines with dimensions should be able to move arbitrarily (up and down) with Direct Selection Tool.

18. Allow to assign several colors as transparent for Image Trace

    Currently Image Trace allows to pick one color to ignore and replace it with full transparency. Perhaps some users might need to pick more than one color.
    UI in other places offers to setup several color chips, seems like a consistent move to allow the same here.

19. An option to convert a line into a dimension line

    Sometimes it’s so much easier to draw a line, using a familiar click-drag-release method, instead of click-click-click method Dimension Tool uses to Manual Dimensions!

    I really with to be able to covert a viable line (an open straight line with no handles and two points only, being it a live shape or not) into a dimension, with zero offset and no extension lines.

    It IS possible to do today, but using some shenanigans I show in a GIF attached. The way extensions can’t be set to zero is a problem though, and should be reported separately.

    Some plugins and scripts allow this exact function, I don’t see why Ai can’t have it.

20. Puppet Warp and Free Transform should respect existing layer structures.

    I love Puppet Warp but I hate having to ungroup my paths and put them back in the layer structure that works for me when I'm done using Puppet Warp.

    Please do whatever needs to be done so that I can grab a bunch of paths about multiple layers, Puppet Warp them, and have them stay in the same place they were before I did this. I'm fine if it's a switch in the tool's settings because some people love this behavior.
