Blob brush ability to do smaller size and make it more interactive.
I often need a blob that is smaller than 1 point. The ability to go smaller would be wonderful!
I use it a lot to "paint" wispy caligraphic lines.
I often use the bursh with equal width and height because any other setting slows me down as I change the angle I "paint in". If there was a way to interact without going back to the dialogue box it would be more efficient. It is slow and "clunky" otherwise.

A polygon option for a Pen Tool
Recently I've noticed that I'm missing one option – switching off the Bezier anchors by the pen tool. I would like to draw a continuously (joined) straight line, without accidentally changing it into a bezier curve. While drawing fast with a Wacom pen or with a mouse, it's easy to move the cursor before jumping to the next place and thereby, by accident pull the Bezier handle and proceeding a curve. I use Affinity Designer on iPad and there exists an option for the pen tool – a polygon. I'm looking for something similar that in Illustrator.

<critical bug> can open same file. that means lose data anytime.
This is critical bug and cause my job lost many times. When I using illustrator with unsaved, I can open same file . That means I can lose the data. I remember there were alert if I open same file or can not open for old version.
For example, Photoshop can not open same file if I use the data. So photoshop does cover this issue. Please fix this bug asap !! Thank1 vote -
Join end point to path
I am a student at university, and I need to be able to join end points to paths without having the enter the live paint. This would give higher editing capability, and allows me to keep the stylized stroke options like calligraphy.

Text block with paragraph styling
I dream for text block with automaticaly applied paragraph styling to every text in it. If you have linked text blocks, each with its own style, you can put text from a database or a worksheet and avoid formatting each row individually. Present sheet with business cards where name, address, job, etc. are linked to text boxes and you put in them data from excel. You have to format each item in the style. If the blocks carry the style of the text, it is enough to make sure each text is in its box.

Damaged ai files
Hi there
My files keep getting damaged when saving them in illustrator
it seems to be a recent issue only after the last month. I had advice the other day from adobe support to save the files to my desktop as saving to my work server may be the issue - why then never before. My colleges need to be able to access these files too so it's pointless continuously saving to my desktop. This is soooooo FRUSTRATING and I'm getting really annoyed. We pay a large amount of money for the adobe suite. This should be making my life…1 vote -
Fix the help search function
Help used to work fine but since illustrator 18 cc the help function always takes much longer to load (5/10 seconds every time I type a singl letter). Make a short cut to type in help, as seen on c4d, would speed up workflow considerably
1 voteThe Help option is completely reworked in recent versions, into the Discover panel. It’s rather fast now. If you have feedback on it — please comment.

metadata
Please update the ability to add metadata to a file, similar to the way you can with Adobe Lightroom Classic. The current file info feature is difficult to understand and you have to drill way down to get your information into the metadata.
The ability to create Metadata presets that you can easily apply to files. The metadata preset would include:
- Basic file information
- IPTC Content, Copyright, Creator, etc. info

Which profiles should be used when viewing pdfs?
Hi, today I had a problem like this:
I created a pdf from an illustrator file, it was a montage of many labels only in black.
Then visualizing them with acrobat pro with "fogra 27" was perfect, but my service used "fogra 39" and the black was split into CMYK.
Then, by ripping the pdf to make the plates, black was displayed only in black.
Which profiles should be used when viewing pdfs?

Previous versions of illustrator showed the id of individual elements within layers in the layers window
Previous versions of Illustrator would show the id of individual elements within layers in the layers window. Now they just show as "path" or "compound path." I generate maps as svg files from a database with a program of my own design and then import them into Illustrator for final editing. Sometimes there is a problem with one or more elements. Before I could go to Illustrator, select the problem element, and see in the layers window what its id was. Then I could go to my database and fix the problem. I can't do this anymore. I'm attaching a…

Preserve the transparency (opacity %) when a file is exported.
If I want to create overlays (think of Instagram filters), I want to be able to preserve the opacity %. So that I can take this overlay and place it over other images.
The way it works currently is if I export the object and place it on another image, all the transparency is lost and the object is set to 100% opacity.1 vote -
Please make cursor track wider when moving to selection list menus
On a laptop, the Illustrator screen is very detailed. The screenshot shows how, when object>transform has been selected, it is necessary to hold down the mouse button and slide the mouse so that the cursor is guided down a very narrow blue track. If you stray off after careful steering to almost the end, you have to start again. Why not make the blue track much wider, so that you do not have to exert such close manual control? You could , for example, make the track expand in width as it extends from the start box to the end…

Adobe Stock info available in-app
It would be really helpful to have access in-app to complete information for Adobe Stock Assets, especially the content creator, so that I can credit the image properly in my work. Perhaps a re-tool of the info available in the Libraries panel would be the best way, or even an "i" icon over the image next to the purchase icon?

Simplify the Color Panels
Why are there so many different panels in Illustrator for working with colors? The color-making panels in InDesign are so much simpler than Illustrator. It's super cumbersome and reminds me of trying to design something in MS Word. Simplify please. Make it like InDesign.
