Add an option to create a preset for layers
It would be very helpful if there's an option to create a layers preset where I can customize the names, colors, & etc of the layers & sublayers and save it as a preset for when I needed it.

Make it easy to colour pie charts using colour libraries.
Unable to use the libraries colour menu to colour a pie chart. This is ridiculous. I had to make a separate box on the page and use the eyedropper to transfer the colour to the pie chart. Even the Eyedropper wouldn't work directly with the colour in the colour library and that is where all our brand colours are stored.

Ajout d'un plan de travail calé sur une sélection
L'idée est simple : un bouton permettant de générer un plan de travail sous la sélection en cours.
Le cas concret : je dois isoler chaque colonne "mois" d'un calendrier complet, afin de pouvoir importer ensuite chaque colonne indépendamment dans InDesign. J'aimerais pouvoir sélectionner mon mois de Janvier, et cliquer un bouton afin de générer un plan de travail sous ma sélection, directement aux dimensions piles.

Make Split Into Grid applied to a path to respect the path’s outline
Did some playing around with Split Into Grid and got an unexpected result. I had hoped a shape would split into a grid but each shape is converted to a square!
Is this what's meant to happen?

Automatically rearrange are resize selected objects in columns / rows with uniform gaps
Could you have a function that automatically arranges links or shapes in the layout space with an equal distance in width and height?
Have a nice day.2 votes -
Bleed option for multi-color object
Currently if you expand an object with more than one color the paths will overlap where they meet. It would be beneficial if the expanded paths split the difference where they meet to better setup objects with bleed.

Having '.2' at the end of a filename makes Save As dialog drop actual file type when saving
I need to save multiple Files withe Pos.1, Pos.2, Pos.3 etc.. Every time i want to save a file with the filename ".2" at the end wil not save the file.. In the Explorer will be the file but in a unreadable file type.
2 votesIt turns out some application added '.2' as a file type, and Ai had to comply with it when auto-completing file names in OS-managed dialog.
Follow the solution in the comments if you have a similar problem.

Please add 'Save as preset' to the file menu
The homescreen says in a promising way that we can Save and Find our own Document Presets. But how?
Please add a way to save document presets, without having to struggle with permissions and cryptic folder names.
And, please let thee presets migrate when Ai is updated :-)

Quick access to the grid, more artboards operations, advanced snapping options
New features in the future?
Quick access to the grid:
Allow the grid to be activated directly from the main interface and to personalize the isometric grid or the classic grid , without having to navigate through the software settings or preferences. video demonstration 4Management of multiple canvases:
Not only allow multiple canvases to be displayed in the same workspace and make it easier to copy and paste one or more objects between canvases (something that is already present), but more importantly offer the ability to flip the canvas and rename the canvas name directly and immediately. video demonstration…

Images with the file name underneath.
Would be great if you could place images on to an artboard and have the option to display the files name underneath the image.
This would be great when designing images for Etsy showing the customer the choice of images they can choose and then tell you the file name of their chosen image.2 votes -
Allow to make menus and dropdowns more compact on smaller screens
Anything under 1920x1080 does not allow for UI scaling. I use the drop down menus a lot. When I have to also scroll on each drop down menu it causes a lot of time loss. If I could scale the menu lists to remove the need to scroll it would be very helpful.
I see that the tab/menu for Effect is still an older style menu list. It's much more compact.
Maybe there is a way to revert all the menu lists to that older style?

Improve Assigning Color Profile
I’ve been running into some challenges with color profiles in Adobe Illustrator that I think could use improvement. Every time I open a document, I’m asked to either assign or discard a color profile. The issue is, even when I choose and save the file, Illustrator asks me again when I reopen it. Is there a reason it’s not saving my choice?
Another thing that could help a lot is when working with multiple images, like 20 or more. Instead of getting prompted one by one for each image, it would be much faster if I could see a list…

Allow merging global and non-global colors
Please make it possible to merge non-global swatches with global and vice versa. It would greatly help tidy up submissions for printing.

Old Dogs New Tricks - "Stop modernizing mode" or "stop teaching new things mode"
I've been using Illustrator since the 1990s and can use tools with my eyes closed and with keyboard commands like second nature. What trips me up every time I use it these days is it is constantly changing with little tweaks and updates! Insessant tool tips to teach me how to use the most basic of tool features!
Can I please have a feature to
1. Turn off tool tip prompts and teaching features
2. Turn on 1990s mode or 2000s mode or 2010s mode makes the tools organize and perform as previous feature sets.2 votes -

Composite fonts with Chinese, Korean fonts
Composite fonts (East Asian type option) only shows Japanese typefaces for CJK text elements. It would be nice to be also able to typeset CJK texts in Chinese/Korean typefaces to reflect regional differences in CJK character forms.

Setting scale dimensions for each layer
Currently, each layer can only be drawn at a scale of 1:1. If it becomes possible to set the scale for each layer, it will be possible to use it in the architectural field. Please consider this.

Add Convert to Point / Area Type commands in context menu for text
When I right-click on text, I would like there to be an option to switch between area/point text, instead of going to the type menu.
