Enhanced Miter Join with Obelisk/Chisel options for shortening spikes スパイクを短縮するためのオベリスク/チゼルオプションによるマイター結合の強化
Instead of Miter Joins just defaulting to Bevel Joints when the Miter Limit is too low, Obelisk/Chisel options can give a whole range of symmetric/asymmetric shortening of spikes, for the whole path through the Stroke palette and/or as a more flexible feature like live Corners applicable to one/more/all joins.
Described and shown in the thread below where just a few possible shapes and uses are included.
マイターリミットが低すぎるときにマイターコーナーをデフォルトでベベルコーナーにする代わりに、オベリスク/チゼルオプションは、スパイクの対称/非対称短縮の全範囲を提供できます。ストロークパレットを通るパス全体に対して、および/またはより柔軟な機能として 1つ/複数/すべての結合に適用可能 ライブコーナーのように、
いくつかの可能な形状と使用法が含まれる以下のスレッドで説明および表示されます。

Change a group of vector's stroke size relative to each other, thicker or thinner, at the same time. Like Word's font up & font down button
Change a group of vectors' stroke size relative to each other, thicker or thinner, at the same time. Like Word's font up & font down button.
Right now it's frustrating when you transform size down a drawing with multiple stroke sizes. The strokes are then too thick. But if you have multiple stroke widths, there is no way to reduce them in size relative to each other so the drawing keeps the same look.

Add commonly used stroke weights in a document to a dropdown
Sense the stroke weights being used in the document so they can be selected in the drop down menu in Stroke Weights.
So if 0.15 was a common stroke weight it would appear in the drop down menu that now starts at 0.25. It could be cursive or grey to give standout.
Thanks

Have stroke type selection like in InDesign
InDesign has a great feature in the Stroke Panel where you can select different types of strokes - like dashed, dotted, wavy, etc.
It would be great if Illustrator had the same feature.

Add a quick way to toggle the alignment of a stoke (Center, Inside, Outside): with Opt/Alt-click and/or a hotkey
There are many modes, states, values in Ai that require precise clicking in a tiny button or a field to toggle or change. We need faster ways to access these.
A keyboard shortcut to quickly toggle how the current stroke is aligned would be nice to have... for those who prefer clicking, Opt/Alt could be added to avoid precise aiming, just to loop through the modes.

Allow to save changes into the locked Arrowheads.ai file
So you are a smart one and figured out how to make your own arrowheads...
The help article tells how to do it (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/stroke-object.html) and then the file itself has some instructions.But then you try to save the changes, and get an error message. You can't overwrite the file, because it’s locked by Ai, because it uses it to display arrowheads in their dropdown...
Currently you have to save the file someplace else, close Ai, wait a bit, replace the fil, launch Ai back. Very cool...
Then you realize you made a tiny mistake probably, and you…4 votes -
Width Tool Changes When Adding New Points or Mirroring and Joining Objects
This issue really affects me, especially when I create an entire path, but then gets destroyed due to more points. Could you consider getting rid of width profiles or make an option to disable it? I want the width point to stay at the exact same place all the time just like anchor points! Also the width tool points can be very inaccurate, as shown in the picture below.

Allow adding Arrowheads or similar to both ends of stroke at once.
Provide an option for adding arrowheads to a stroke with one selection rather than each end individually.

Default stroke check box next to stroke weight
Please, please make a "Default" checkbox next to the stroke weight that can force all future strokes to the set weight when checked

The ability to create individual strokes for portions of a single path
Would Love to be able to select path segments with the Direct Select tool and apply, line weight and color assignments to that segment only — WITHOUT cutting the path into myriad, noncontiguous chunks.
Wishing to retain the editability of the path.4 votes -
Min Stroke width when adding a profile
I have wanted this to be a feature for over a year now.
As many of us know, we can simply add a profile shape to strokes. We can also create our own profiles! The process of creating profiles is not very user friendly in my opinion.
I think it would be a great idea to be able to state which profile you want for your stroke, and then an addition option comes up that gives you 1 extra boxes:
Minimum stroke weight for the stroke profile
Obviously the "max" stroke weight is changed in the "Weight" section already.
Most…

Scaling Arrowheads Maintains Original Stroke Width
Is it possible to add an option in the Stroke panel which allows scaling of the arrowheads and start and end shapes (like Circle, Square, SimpleWide, Simple, ettc.) without scaling their stroke width?
Now the stroke width of the arrow or shape is increased or decreased when scaling. Please see attached images. Often times I would like to use a bigger arrowhead or shape but I have to create hem manually as scaling up results the arrowhead becoming a wider stroke than the stroke itself.
For instance - a 2 point stroke with a SimpleWide arrowhead results in the arrowhead…

Scale Strokes Only
When Scaling numerically, the have choice whether to scale Strokes (and) effects as well.
What I am looking for, is a way to scale stroke widths, without scaling the objects. In that way, it is easy to change several stroke widths, while keeping the ratio between the stroke widths. (I know the work around, to scale back the objects without scaling the strokes - but that comes with some risks and limitations)

Allow to quickly change stroke units directly from Stroke panel
Currently, the stroke unit can be adjusted via the Preferences > Units > Stroke settings. It would be extremely helpful if this setting could also be made accessible directly from the Stroke panel as a shortcut.
Being able to quickly switch between measurement units is particularly important for us during production workflows. Therefore, we kindly ask you to consider adding a shortcut to the Stroke panel for easier access to unit settings.

Add Round Butt cap option for strokes
The original idea by Johan Perjus, from https://medium.com/design-bootcamp/things-i-wish-adobe-would-address-with-adobe-illustrator-4796a89e1bae
There are quite a few cases where I use rounded strokes as a starting point for building shapes and where this option would be useful, as in order to know the correct outer dimensions of a stroke, one has to deduct the stroke with from the end caps.

Variable Width point distribution advanced controls
The standard distribution of the width points and number of width points needs a toggle to advanced controls where the width points can be locked to (or between specified) anchor points on the path.
I hypothesize that this would fix the glitch where the movement, addition or subtraction of anchor points throws the width distribution out of wack.• Would also like to see more pronounced the location of all width points when the path is selected instead of fumbling along the path; perhaps secondary color to standard layer color.
• Within the "Width Point Edit" dialogue, buttons to advance…

Scale arrowheads to stroke weight
So, my great idea request is to have the arrowheads scale but maintain their stroke width. It seems the arrow heads are not stroked paths, so maybe this is not possible? But it being 2023, I would like to think it is possible.
Without too much ranting, it's amazing that you would want to scale arrow heads to be a different width to the stroke. It's so uglehy.
Screenshots attached showing how I see this amazing update would work and saving me time of having to make my own hacked arrow heads to do the job of this expensive software.

ライブトレースのまま線幅ツールを使いたい
現状ではライブペイントを適用したオブジェクトの線幅に強弱をつける際、現在はライブペイントを拡張して線幅ツールを使用するか、線のパスのみを前面にコピペして作業する必要があります。
ライブペイントを崩さずに、線幅を変えられたらかなり強力なツールになると思います。3 votes
