Ability to rotate an image 90 degrees when exported for screens
Having the ability to rotate an image 90 degrees when exported for screens would save a step when saving some art for the web.
Some artwork with text is saved built so the type is horizontal for ease of typing/reading. Current exports require the art to be built and then rotated 90 degrees in Photoshop.
The ability to rotate saves a step.
It is a small nice improvement for Illustrator.1 vote -

Content Credentials (Beta) arriving for Illustrator ... and general concerns about Content Provenance / Attribution
As Adobe are a leading player in the CAI initiative, are they rolling out 'Content Credentials' functionality to the other creation tools in the suite?
Also - related to this - why do admin staff on here ask people to upload .AI files as bug fix evidence without conversations about risks of jeopardising Provenance and Attribution?1 vote -
Please Address Ongoing Bugs in Font Activation
Despite recently getting a fix, there is still a problem involving fonts deactivating, and Illustrator listing those same fonts as active.
I'm still constantly going to the website to deactivate and reactivate fonts, and it's annoying.
Just this afternoon I had this problem with Lato, HWZ Artz, and Wigwag. However I've seen this problem with many others before.
Can't we just store these things locally and keep them there??1 vote -
In the new swatch creation panel, it would be perfect to already be able to check the overprint option for fills or outlines

Autogenerate designs with Adobe Sensei?
What if Illustrator had the ability to autogenerate versions of a design using Adobe Sensei technology? Imagine that you are going to design several banners of the same design in different sizes. Instead of designing each individual banner, one could simply click on a button that auto-generates versions in all the different sizes needed. This will help streamline the design process and eliminate time-consuming manual tasks.

ダイレクト選択ツールについて
ダイレクト選択ツールでオブジェクトの上からアンカーポイント以外からドラッグでアンカーポイントを選択したいのですが、オブジェクトが移動してしまうので使いにくいです。移動しないようにしていただきたいです
1 voteThere are two ways to do that.
1. View > Outline mode
2. Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display: Object Selection by Path Only
Both of these will allow you to select anchors without accidentally moving an object -
pointer
I am told I am the only one ever to have this problem in adobe illustrator. But the tool " pointer " is sticking, I am unable to use it. The hand grab tool is on. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it. I can't do projects or lessons unless it is fixed. It is important to me because I am in class to learn Illustrator and I cannot go any further unless it works. I have called adobe with no answer or person to talk to. I have spoken with my teachers and they told me to do this and call Adobe Enterprise to report and tell them I am affiliated with the school. Do you have a solution and can you help me asap so I can do my lessons? thank you

An image or shape splitter that randomly generates splits in an image based upon user-set ranges
Currently, mosaics are somewhat difficult to make (I am new so I don't know everything, therefore I have some issues with this) I am looking for a function that allows the splitting of images, shapes, or shape groups, through a menu that you place ranges upon (i.e. amount of resulting shapes, how many sides per shape as a range between two numbers, etc.)
The ability to select shapes in an image by area and color to then split them randomly while still keeping original outline form would be also appreciated, along with averaging color values if you choose to split an area with two or more different colors at the same time. (If this sounds confusing I completely understand). What I mean is if you select an image by area only to then split, the shapes formed after splitting can have their color values averaged in relation to the colors of the referenced image in that area where the shape is located, if you so choose.
This function could either act as a mask or a change to the imbedded image or shape group
Most of this may already be a thing in Illustrator, but the random generation of shapes from an image or shape is a completely new idea (I think), an would be a great addition to your application. Maybe you could call it "Auto Mosaic from Image/Shape".

Diacritic Positioning
To add Diacritic Positioning Rules preset options (similar to InDesign) in the Middle Eastern features.
It'd be handy when dealing with Arabic fonts that have their diacritics off, especially when dealing with paragraphs, instead of doing it manually.

saas
There are users among the users who use the services of SaaS companies, I would like to ask why you chose them, what was the web design of the site, so I also think about how to design the site correctly?

Scale Calligraphic Brush - create new brush option
If you scale a path item with 10 pt stroke at 200%, you will get a path item with a 20 pt stroke. Note, the "Scale Strokes & Effects" option is enabled.
However, if a calligraphic 3 pt brush is scaled 200% (with a default stroke weight of 1pt and "Scale Strokes & Effects" enabled) the result will produce a calligraphic 3 pt brush with a 2pt stroke. Visually the brush stroke will appear bigger but the path item is still connected to the 3 pt brush.
Can we add a feature that will create a new brush based on the scale function? In the example provided above, the result will produce a path item with a 2 pt stroke and it will be connected to a new brush based on the previous brush but the size will be 6 pt.

ArcGIS plugin for 2021 and 2022 (Macs)
Adobe CC doesn't allow installing Illustrator versions prior to 25.4 and this plugin requires 24.0 to run. Latest update removed my prior version and I can't recover it. This plugin is critical for my day to day work. Please upgrade the plugin on Macs as soon as possible! Thank you.

Different Stroke weight in every point node
I'm trying to make a typeface in illustrator, but it's so hard when i have to apply multiple different weight in one stroke (especially with serif typeface). So i have manually expand the stroke and edit it manually, and the result is not tidy or clean enough.
I know there is width tool to edit stroke weight, but it behave more like a brush, it will get messy if i want to change stroke weight and not having consistent shape if i cut some part of the alphabet to use it on another alphabet.
So i have an idea if we can edit stroke weight in every single point node so it can be more consistent (maybe it's similar to blend tools smoothness, but it's specific for stroke).
