2. Create PDF Compatible File - Stroke not outlined

   When saving an Illustrator file with Create PDF Compatible turned on, would it be possible to have the stroke of the text live, the same as you keep the text live. Not outlined.

3. Button to reveal a Layer on "Layer window"

   Is there a possibility to create a right-clic option to "reveal on Layer window" from any object? Sometimes when I receive some .ai files, everything is un-organized and must travel over layers and layers... This option is in After Effects and is very helpful.
   Thanks for reading!

   You can do this now with the Locate Object button in the bottom of the Layers panel.

   However, this is not an automatic thing. If you wish to have an option for it to be automatic, vote here: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/39104935-automatic-locate-object

4. Do not include objects outside artboard when exporting to jpg or png

   When I export Illustrator files to jpg or png, it includes all shapes and objects sitting outside my artboard area. This is impractical, especially when working on a range of concepts and you just want to send the work to the client that is on the artboards and not all the working files sitting outside the artboard area.

   Checking 'Use artboards' option forces Illustrator to ignore objects on canvas outside artboards, even when the one artboard is used only.

   When the option is off, Illustrator will export the whole artwork on canvas.

5. Packaging doesn't save library items

   I use my Adobe Library function to save time in placing common graphics into files. However, I notice when I go to package the file to prepare it for the press, it doesn't collect all of the library items, and then turns into an endless loop where the it keeps prompting me to update items in the library. The only workaround for this currently is to grant more people access to my library, which is not best practice, or to go through every link that's on the cloud and resave it into a links folder manually.

6. Shared syncable library colors that UPDATE your documents if they are changed

   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.

7. Export for Screens: Option to include file- and artboard-name automatically.

   Ok the "Export for Screen" option is kind of nice, however it takes far too long to set everything up....

   1. The areas to type in are far too small.
   2. Automation is week a. where can define that all images will get the file name of the original *.AI file. b. why does it keep the old folder location? Set an option to export is where the original *.AI-file is located. c. Where are some presets? Wouldn't it be awesome to have some user-defined presets? It would be.
   3. The images are to small
   4. There are to many clicks, like when I want to change the transparency of an *.png-file: 1st click -> seetings 2nd-click -> choosing png 3rd-click -> Background color 4th-click -> Transparent 5th-click -> Save Settings That are 4 clicks too much.
   5. How do I export one png-version as transparent and one with white background?

   Contact me if you like.

9. Export selected only

   Would like to see an "EXPORT SELECTED ONLY" option, so that you can export just a selection of items from a file with many elements. Really a pain to have to copy the items I want to export, and paste them into a new file in order to export them.

   There is File > Export Selection command in Illustrator now, that adds a selection as an asset into Asset Export panel and opens Export for Screens dialog immediately.

10. Fit artboard in window when opening an Illustrator document

    Please have the file open as Fit Artboard in Window. Like it used to be. It is annoying to have to hit the shortcut, Command - 0 every time I open a file.

11. Dimension tool improvements

    The dimension tool is a really helpful thing but some improvements would be appreciated.

    • As stated in other posts, please include the possibility to add user defined scalings, including decimal numbers like 1:1.5 and other ones, like 1:15.

    • According to ISO standards, the dimension text should sit above the lines, as viewed from the right. This would be a great option, because at this moment I don't use this tool regularly because of this.

    • When dimensions are too small, there should be an option to move the text away, either to the right or the left. Of course this can be done afterwards but the whole thing has to be expanded to move the text. Maybe this could be improved somehow.

    • Arrowheads with small dimensions now overlap. It would be better to revert them to the outside if necessary.

    • Architectural diagonal slashes are missing from the list of arrows and stroke endpoints. Those would be great!

    See attached file for details ...

12. Convert gradient properly on SVG instead of rasterizing when saving file as SVG Tiny 1.2

    Currently, when you try to save an SVG containing gradients with SVG 1.2 Tiny profile, Illustrator rasterizes the gradient and embeds the rasterized image instead of properly converting it as a pure vector information. This reduces the qualify of the saved image a lot and it's no longer scalable with even further quality reduction.

    SVG 1.2 Tiny specification supports gradients and so it would be really helpful if Illustrator kept the vector information from gradient. This is also necessary for BIMI logos (https://bimigroup.org/) as it doesn't support images/links in the SVG.

13. Improve Library Panel UX with prefered behaviour options

    There are a number of small changes that would make getting things out of the library quicker and more convenient. The panel should have some preferences to set default behaviour. Options should include:

    • Toggle 'place copy' or 'place linked file', so it always behaves one way or the other. The way my team and I use the library, we ALWAYS want to place copies (never linked files). So having to hold down ALT to do this is a pain. In addition to this, holding down ALT behaves very badly. It misses the key press if you move too quickly, meaning you HAVE to delay, even on a fast computer. Removing the need to do this would be ideal.

    • Toggle swatch conflict resolution between 'always merge swatches', 'always add swatches', and 'choose per item': I ALWAYS want to merge swatches, and the extra mouse point and click on “merge swatches”, “OK” <repeat> for every single item, let alone batch items brought in together wastes time. Just let me set it once and forget about it!

    • for multiple imported items, make it optional whether or not to place each item individually (point and click, as per current behaviour), or to simply dump the whole lot all at once at the location of the cursor where the user released the mouse button.

    • make it optional whether to add an extra group around the imported item, or to simply name the item itself as-imported with the name in the library panel (without an extra group around it).

14. Add Option to Save Both Editable and Outlined Text PDFs Simultaneously

    As a graphic designer, I often need to provide clients with both editable and outlined text versions of my work. Currently, this requires manually saving two separate files: one with editable text and another with text converted to outlines.

    I propose adding a feature in Adobe Illustrator's "Save As PDF" dialog that allows users to check an option like:

    "Would you like to save two versions of this file? (Editable text and Outlined text)"

    Upon selection, Illustrator would automatically generate:

    filename_editable.pdf

    filename_outlined.pdf

    This enhancement would streamline the workflow, reduce the risk of errors, and save valuable time for designers.

15. A standalone preset migration tool to allow for quicker setting migration and recovery in the event of a re-installation.

    Settings are regularly changed/updated and need to be rolled out to all users in a short amount of time in our environment. As such, a tool that will quickly copy/paste from one location to the app preset folders would be ideal. Swatches is a key example of this.

    The build in tool that comes with Illustrator fails more often than not and thus is something we do not use. Ideally, we'd like to see something a user can double click/execute on their own to update these files.

16. Support SVG property 'paint-order'

    Add support for the paint-order property. By default the fill is painted and then the stroke is placed on top. The paint-order property allows this order to be defined so the stroke can be placed under the fill. Without support for this a svg can look very different than the imported version in illustrator.

    The file attached is an example of the property in use.

    Example:
    https://mdn.mozillademos.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/paint-order$samples/Examples?revision=1530134

    See the following resources:
    https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/painting.html#PaintOrder

19. Local saves with Version control

    We need an option to create a project file that cannot be saved over. The reason for this is that when working with a client who has many options, we sometimes need to step back in time or recover older versions from unexpected changes.

    Similar to an Illustrator template file (.ait), we could have a format like .aiv or .aivi. This way, when I save flyer.aiv, every save will generate a backup file flyer-250204817.ai next to the current file.

    It would also be useful to have an option in a settings pane to save a backup every other save and retain backups for a maximum of three days or up to ten saves. Whatever option we choose should control the local .aiv file.

    I do store files on my local nas server, where every save gets a snapshot. However, when working on my local system (laptop), I don’t have that function, nor do I always have Wi-Fi. This means working in Adobe Cloud is not an option.
    Please provide an option so we do not loose our work or we have the option to recover from edits we desided were not what we want.

20. Support for ARIA in SVG (accessibility)

    There are a couple of requests for improvements to SVG export, which is sorely needed. One important aspect of this is accessibility.

    SVG use is increasing, and accessibility requirements are being mandated in jurisdictions around the globe.

    There will be a growing need for people to produce accessible SVG files.

    This calls for supporting ARIA roles states and properties, and some way to indicate tabindex.

    A number of constraints can be imagined to prevent people doing the wrong thing (e.g. if you put tabindex=0 on a non-operable element), but the basic functionality is far more basic.

    Select object.
    Open aria palette.
    Add / edit / remove role (e.g. checkbox)
    Add / edit / remove state (e.g. aria-checked) and default value for that state.
    Add / edit / remove property (e.g. aria-label) and default value
    Checkbox for "focusable" (sets tabindex="0") if false, no tabindex attribute and the next checkbox is greyed-out).
    Checkbox for "programmatic" (sets tabindex="-1")
    Export SVG
    Result: Aria roles, states, properties and tabindex attributes present and correct in the corresponding SVG elements.
