  1. search

    Hi, it's hard to find a certain path/vector art assets from the layers menu if the list is super long. My suggestion for the search function is when you click the asset on the art board, you can simply hover your mouse over the layer's list and click e.g. ',' (comma) and it shows you the right art asset from the layers' dropdown list.

    Thank you

  3. Turn "Export for Screens..." into a processing powerhouse for screens and print alike

    Why limit exporting to screens? Many graphic design workflows require assets for both screen and print. A user should be able to pick and choose (and save) all kinds of combinations of formats, dimensions, resolutions, and naming conventions for exporting.

    PNGs, JPGs, EPSs (Please add), PDFs, TIFFs, GIFs, SVGs, etc.

    This could be such a timesaver, and go a long way to help restore faith in Adobe CC.

  4. Illustrator can not save with Apple SMB and show column preview on

    Hi
    On Mac, Illustrator can not save with Apple SMB and "show column preview" turned on.

    File says "Illustrator is unable to save this document... due to some unexpected errors"

    Illustrator and photoshop, please change your code to work on Apple SMB. Apple confirmed they will not change their code to fix Adobe cross platform app issues saving.

  8. Don’t tell me I can’t save a document because it is saving

    I'm going back to the 2019 version. There are no benefits that I can find to using 2020. First of all, there's the issue of it telling me every time I try to do save-close that it can't close the document until it's done saving it. YES, I KNOW that - I simply don't want to sit here and wait on it, I've got other things to do.

    And on top of that, none of my fonts look pretty and clean like in 2019 and every previous version of illustrator.

    I WON'T be going back to 2020 until you can…

  9. Illustrator 2020 performance significantly slow/sluggish -

    Sorry, can't recommend upgrade of 2020 to my colleagues. I work for a large Engineering firm and we have powerful computers. We have critical deadlines for Q4-2019 - Upgrading to 2020 will be a big mistake as it will cause delay to our projects and stress to the members .
    Saving files takes too long, copying takes system long to process - pasting is fine. Adding text is ridiculously taking forever and it creates its own textbox size - It feels like going back to AI CS6.

    Suggest to review what you had for AI 2019- this was one of…

  10. [MINOR BUG] Drag fx from the appearance panel unto objects... it doesnt work

    Dragging a 'completed' effect: from the Appearance panel unto a new object ( to recreate the same effect ) doesn't work using the hand grab tool.

    I want to be able to drag effects that I've already made - from one object and reproduce them unto another...

    please try to do that and see if it works for you - on your end.

    Thank you

    Not critical I found a way around it... but the convenience is nice.

  11. Radial Array Feature (akin to AutoCAD)

    I know there's a workaround whereby one can accomplish this, or nearly so, with the rotate/copy function; however, the implementation is somewhat inelegant, especially for new users who might not be aware of the 360/x syntax. It has been a number of years since I have used CAD, but I recall the Polar Array command being much more full-featured and am struck that AI still doesn't have a better way to do this. In point of fact, a liner array wouldn't be a bad addition, either, and would save the headache of trying to do it with patterns or aligns.

  12. Apply For Digital Cutter To Connect With AI Format Cutting File Directly

    Hi, Good day!
    I'm David Jia from Sinajet Tech. We are a digital cutter manufacturer for sign industry.
    More our customers have AI format cutting file, now they need to transfer AI to DXF, and send DXF file to our digital cutter for cutting process.
    We hope our cutter can connect with AI format cutting file directly. Once I get AI format I/O or a DLL, then our digital cutter can work with AI format cutting file directly. It will be more convenient for customers.
    Please kindly let me know how to proceed.
    If you have any other request, please…

  13. Take UI problems from users serious!!

    Schön wäre es wenn man das UI "dezent" bzw. stufenlos skalieren könnte.
    Am Retina iMac ist die kleine Schriftgröße und Symbolgröße in den Bedienfeldern eine Katastrophe!

    Schön wäre es auch wenn Voreinstellungen von Indesign, Illustrator und Photoshop alle am selben Ort zu finden wären.
    Und eine dezente UI Skalierung für Indesign und Photoshop wär auch ein Hit. Ich verstehe nicht, warum man dies nur für Illustrator gemacht hat und da nur schlampig.

  19. Layer name suffix when pasting in XD (behaviour changed in 2020)

    1. Description:

    When I copy and paste vectors from Illustrator 2020 to Adobe XD, suffix "1" is being added to each later.

    This doesn't happen when I copy from Illustrator 2019 so I assume this have benn changed in Illustrator 2020, not XD.

    1. Why is this valuable to you?

    I create all my icons in Illustrator but keep them in huge XD file so that devs can easily get them as SVGs.

    With this additional suffix, my workflow is slower as I have to remove them each time I add new icon to XD file.
