Allow a new feature to resize workspace so the page doesn't get hidden behind the dock
Several of us on Adobe Forums experience the same issue for many years. Often times the workspace window gets hidden behind the dock, or even below the visible area of the monitor, there is currently no way to adjust this. I am trying to resize the window of my current workspace and I cannot. Bottom right corner not visible. It's a shame that after 18 years of using this application we still have basic issues like this. Please fix this as soon as possible. Thank you so much.

SVG code for current document visible in non modal view
When fine-tuning SVG files, the ergonomics of the workflow are far less than optimal. This is especially problematic because SVG supports only a subset of what is possible in Illustrator.
A round trip to some other app, or viewing code via the export modal feels awkward and is certainly time-consuming. Worse, it takes me away from the main Illustrator editor where my art is actually visible/editable.
Can't we have a panel which shows the SVG code 'live', without having to visit the file menu. It need not be an editable code view, but 'pretty printing' and perhaps code folding would…

Create Working Version or Working Artboard
Often times when working on a Logo or Design Project, I create type that I eventually turn into outlines for the final artwork -- and what my clients receive. It would be very convenient to have an Artboard within the document that does not print nor show up in a PDF, but remains in the native file. It would allow for "instant typography fixes" within the same document and a true "working" file during design phase.

Documents get opened in XD instead of Ai
Can we go back to having .ai files be read by Ai? this new update is not allowing me to view .ai files they all want to be read by XD.
Open my files with Ai instead of XD1 voteFor some reason the OS file associations got reassigned by XD, probably because it got installed later. We can usually change these in Windows Settings > Apps > Default Apps > Choose Default Apps by File Type.

Arrange all artboards reference point
I don't understand which is the starting point of the arrange all artboards, I thought it was the 0 (zero) of the global rulers, but after the arrange all commands the top left artboard is not align with the rulers.
Is there any answer to this or is it a bug?

New Artboard Automatically Generated - No Preview Available
When a new artboard is generated, it is now automatically placed to the right of the active artboard. Previously, generating a new artboard would show a preview and allow me to place wherever I wanted.
I work frequently with nested artboards, and when I want to create a new artboard within the active artboard, I am taken away from the area I am viewing, which is frustrating. I now have to zoom out, turn off 'move with artboard' so that no art is interrupted, move the new artboard to the area I originally wanted it to be in, zoom in…

Could you please add similar artboard settings or features like Photoshop?
I generally use Adobe illustrator for App design and find it annoying on how illustrator artboards are too close together. Could you guys add the artboard settings from Photoshop into to illustrator? I just like the spacing and the naming system defined by Photoshop. It allows for a nicer looking work space.

Artboard Resizing
Would like to be able to resize the artboards in both directions with a preview.
I'm sometimes having an issue where I can't resize the artboard in both directions x & y. Also now there is no preview for this operation like in previous versions.CC18

Allow to see full name past artboard extent / Don't truncate artboards' captions
The artboard name is restricted to the size of the artboard, which truncates the name and makes it illegible. Better logic would be to only shorten the name if it collides with another artboard name.

Please make the slicing more like Fireworks with naming and sizes individual for each artboad (like stages/pages in Fireworks).
Currently I can not export bitmap icons with the the right names and in the right sizes as in Fireworks including padding.
And when I go to another document for a different platform (an app), I have to include the different sizes again.
Also I have no preview like in legacy before I overwrite the old picts.
Making graphics for mobile devices, your presets are based on the lowest resolution (@1). Some user control please...

The process of making icons design is made easier in Adobe Illustrator CC.
When an illustrator or designer designs a collection of pictograms or icons designs they must arrange artboards in large quantities for different icons design according to the needs of the web, apps, and other products. Adobe Illustrator CC must provide special needs for artboard settings to facilitate the process of designing a collection of pictograms or icons design with large numbers to suit many needs such as for web, apps, games, favicons, etc. Facilitate the work process becomes lighter and faster.
