More easily work with text
It would be great if like in PS we could select multiple text layers and apply changes to them at once. Like changing the font size or type, rather than having to go layer by painstaking layer :) What takes seconds in PS could take me HOURS in Illustrator :(

Student Subscription for Individual Apps
There should be a student subscription for individual apps.
I only need illustrator, but $20 a month for one app is still overwhelming for a student, especially since I don’t get paid for the work I do on the app. It wouldn’t make sense to spend so much on the Creative Cloud just to use one app. 60% off, like Creative Cloud, would be much appreciated, but even 40-50% would do.

Allow auto update scheduling
The auto update feature is nice, but it might become a bit of a hassle as you need to close the apps to update.
I would propose to have a drop down option to allow the Adobe CC suite to
Download the updates on the background and then ask when to install, thus not getting in the way of on going work
More importantly, allow an scheduling of said background download, so it can be downloaded during the least network stressed time of the day.

Syncable Color Swatch/Palette Library
it would be nice to have one library with different categories.. you update it once and see it in every illustrator file!
this would be very useful for personal use but also in teams, somewhat like a kuler for illustrator.1 vote -
Is it possible to custom CSS classes? not Id's (so layers)

Exclude single object or layer from moving with artboard
It would be great to exclude a layer or single object even with "move locked and hidden artwork with artboard" enabled. This allows for a more flexible approach when dragging artboards with and without artwork.

Please add a preference to turn off "font cycling."
Please add a user preference to turn off "font cycling." There are times this simply isn't needed.
Thank you!

Include all Live Corners dialog options in Properties panel
The Live Corners dialog button on the Control bar is the only way to precisely adjust the radius, rounding, and corner type of multiple corners in a non-rectangular object. I see no reason why these settings shouldn’t be included in the Properties panel.
This functionality can’t even be accessed via the menu bar or a keyboard shortcut.
Keeping the top control bar open (which is no longer even activated by default in the Essentials workspace) for just that one button is a waste of space, since just about everything else displayed in the Control bar is now displayed in the Properties panel.
While you CAN double click on a Live Corner widget to bring up the full Live Corner dialog, you have to do this manually for every individual corner you want to adjust.

Change the opacity of a layer or directly in the tool
Hello, it would be nice if you could change the opacity of a layer without a mask. I like to draw the shadows with the Blob Tool and have to reduce the opacity of each path after each step. It would be easier if each path automatically had a previously set opacity. Alternatively, you could make this setting in the options of the tool itself. Thank you

Provide Stroke Cap Corner & Alignment control in Character Styles
I'm working in Illustrator CC 22.1 and I can't control the Caps, Corners or Alignment options of Strokes in the Character Styles Palette and I really need to. Is there a way to do this that I haven't figured out or has this issue been addressed in the most recent version? Thanks, Emily

Feature to remove white background seamlessly
I think this should be a basic option, to remove white bg seamlessly. or any colored background. There are lot of basic apps that does that, why a sophisticated software like this doesnt have that option?

Thumbnail preview required when selecting an object from multiple objects overlapping each other in illustrator
I am having a trouble when selecting an object from multiple objects. I think, there should have some thumbnail and object preview option when we right the objects and try to select any object. I attached the image see the red arrow mentioned text.

Workspace that brings up the same object and color schemes
Workspace that brings up the same object and color schemes so you don’t have to bring them up each time.

More exporting options, without disgusting failures, even mini files in size cannot be saved at more than 300 PPI , irrespective sys config.
Please try to limit error messages first, as it is very disgusting, then with high end systems in hand, illustrator commonly fails at exporting, even the tiny sized files not being exported with high resolutions i.e., more than 300 PPI specified as "other"

Missing languages from character panel for automation
I need to automate the language parameter from the Character panel on Illustrator. It is already available for most languages but it looks like the recent languages that have been added in Illustrator are not available for automation. We need to set this up to have the correct hyphenation in the text frames. For example, if we activate the hyphenation for illustrator files that contains Thai strings, it won’t hyphenate the strings correctly until we set the language.
The list available for automation can be found from the Illustrator scripting library on macOS (it contains everything we can use for automation with Illustrator).
You can find it if you follow these steps:
1/ Open Script Editor (installed by default on your Mac)
2/ CMD+SHIFT+L to open the Library
3/ Click on the + button and add Adobe Illustrator 2019 app (/Applications/Adobe\ Illustrator\ CC\ 2019/Adobe\ Illustrator.app/)
4/ Double click Adobe Illustrator 2019 to open the library
5/ Search for the language parameter in the library
6/ It will show the list available for automation (that is different from the list in the UI on Illustrator)For example Thai, or Hebrew are missing for automation.
