  1. 맥 버전에서도 윈도우버전과 같은 단축키를 쓸 수 있게 부탁드립니다.

    윈도우 버전에서는 알트 키를 이용해 메뉴에 접근하고 주요 메뉴는 연속된 키 입력으로 접근이 가능합니다. 예를 들어 문자 전체 선택을 하기 위해서는 알트 sop를 누르면 됩니다. 이러한 방법이 맥 버전에서는 불가능해 너무 불편합니다. 동일한 방식으로 단축키를 사용할 수 있도록 업데이트 부탁드립니다.

  2. Change behavior of scrolling out of bounds or overlapping panels

    When dragging an element to the page or screen edge, the scrolling rate goes from 10px/second to 1000 and you spend most of your time trying to figure out how to go back far enough but not too far. If you go too far, you scroll 1000px in the other direction. All while you are holding a bunch of important elements that you don't want to release. It's unnerving and makes no sense. Make the scroll rate consistent even when scrolling out of bounds. Either that or don't let us scroll further our of bounds than the width or height…

  3. Bring back menu highlighting feature in 'HELP' menu

    Please bring back menu highlighting feature for Illustrator and Photoshop! In previous versions, you could type a word in the HELP dropdown (i.e. "offset path in Ai"), and the menu where the item is located would drop down and highlight the item. This is very useful because designers sometimes remember the name of a feature, but not where it is located. Also for learning it is very useful.

  4. This might actually be useful in other products but have an "open frequent" as well as open recent, if you have to load a file alot

    I was thinking you could add hexadecimal count in file so only adding a byte of data but then what happens when you share files ect, I don't know if there is already a easy way already in the metadata you could implement it

    Now I know you can create libraries to sort of do what I'm saying or bridge.

    A couple of situations where it would be useful loading up logo for a frequent client or company you work for.

    If you have been working on a project with a few different files day and night for months, then…

  5. Locked objects should not highlight at all when drag selecting over them

    That’s the whole reason I lock them, so they’re not in the way and are ignored during complex selections. Highlighting them when mousing over? It goes against the very design principle of locking. So annoying to see these fundamental usability regressions at every turn with .ai lately.

  6. Batch Copy Transform Data (Dimensions, Location, Rotation) between Objects

    I often need to update assets by swapping in objects, placed to match existing position, dimensions and rotation data. Would it be possible to copy all transform data at once rather than one attribute at a time?

    Blender is an example of software that does this well.
    (Pardon me if this has already been requested, or there is a better existing way to do this. I haven't yet found either.)

  8. command+option+z should *not* be the shortcut to revert the current project

    command+option+z is "step backward" in photoshop, undo basically. Why is it revert file in illustrator?! so many people have lost work because of this simple oversight.

  10. Can you please add the Outline Stroke to the Right-Click menu?

    I love using illustrator and i use it a lot and while I'm working in it I've noticed I use the Object/Path/Outline Stroke command quite frequently, and it's rather time consuming to repeat these steps every time I need to outline a stroke. That being said I'd like to appeal to you that you'd consider adding the Outline Stroke option to the Right-Click mouse dropdown menu when a Stroke is selected. It would help a lot. Thanks!

  11. Open Current File Location

    It would be amazing if you add Open Current File Location under the "File" dropdown.

    It is a really minor thing, but it would significantly impact productivity.

  12. Wrap the location of a link to see the full address, without the need to resize the panel to see it whole

    Links panel expands uselessly to the right. Make the addresses in the links panel wrap inside the width of the panel as set by the user. As it is, if the address is long we lose site of the tools (relink, go to, edit, etc.) of the right side of the screen and have to drag the panel back into view. Please...

  13. Enable tool palettes to ‘Show Options’ by default as a Preferences setting (all CC apps)

    I am posting this under Illustrator but it applies to many (most?) Creative Cloud apps.

    Many (most?) tool palettes only show a subset of their options by default. To see all options one has to choose the palette's popup menu and click ‘Show Options’.

    When working on a smallish screen (as I generally do on my laptop) it makes sense to frequently put palettes away, so this is incredibly annoying because the choice doesn't persist.

    When a palette has been closed or minimised, one has to do this every time one wants to access an option input that Adobe has…

  14. ペンツール使用時のみ、タブキーでの選択ツール/ダイレクト選択ツールの切り替えができなくなった

    ペンツール使用時に、コマンドキーをヘ押下した際に、ダイレクト選択ツールに変わるが、他のツールでは問題ないのに、ペンツール時のみ、タブキーでの選択ツール/ダイレクト選択ツールの切り替えができなくなった
    CS6の頃は使えていたのは間違い無いのだけども、CCのどこかで使えなくなった

  15. You should be able to delete a layer with the delete key.

    Like in any other Adobe program you should be able to just press the delete button instead of dragging the layer to the trash bin icon.

  16. If you roll the mouse wheel over a property, count it as one "Undo"

    I love rolling the mouse wheel on properties to make changes and see them in real time, but I always think twice before doing it because I know that Undoing it will be a massive pain. Please count mouse rolls as just one Undo/Redo.

  20. The property bar can be made better.

    I am a designer from Russia and I am delighted with the "properties" panel. The idea of ​​making the panel universal is fascinating. I see the future of Ai in the fact that the program itself will open the necessary settings, depending on the selected object. Unfortunately, the "properties" panel is far from ideal, but I am sure that it is the future. My idea is this. This panel cannot be used by beginners, so the explanations are meaningless. I think all explanations should be removed, and functions should be replaced with buttons. Then, perhaps, this panel will fit everything…
