1. Metadata on ASE

   For me and many designers, color is an asset with information associated with it that I need to follow this asset as it moves from different design programs. With metadata attached to file, I would be able to utilize the features in InDesign and other programs to auto populate this information into text fields. Additionally if this metadata ASE file was a library shared between many users and the any of the tagged information on a color was changed, this update would shoot out to any documents using this color. It would reduce:
   -errors by relying on one source of truth for all the color information.
   -time spent typing in this information and free up time for design instead of administrative tasks.
   -time spent tracking down where colors were used to update any changes.

2. Add URLs to objects in PDFs

   Have the same functionality as InDesigner, where you can sign URLs to objects, making them interactive in PDF format. The current workaround of opening and adding the link in Acrobat isn't good enough - if you need to edit the illustrator file you then have to re-add all of the links!

3. CMYK Support for svgs - make use from the device-CMYK attribute

   When opening an .svg File that got several device-cmyk Params set, i would love to choose (e.g. by popup) which colors i would like to use for the svg - the rgb colors set as a fill or the device-cmyk colors. It would make svgs printable

   e.g. <circle fill="#CD853F device-cmyk(0.11, 0.48, 0.83, 0.00)"/>

4. Width tool feature

   Hi

   As you can see from the file the split in the lower right corner is much bigger than the rest. And I was told that that is because AI treats the starting point of an object different. This makes it difficult to make symmetrict shapes without a lot of extra work.

   Therefor I was hoping this was something You could do something about in a future update

   with best regards

5. Customize Export Formats

   I use only two export formats on a regular basis. It would be nice if could disable the formats I don't use. It is cumbersome to have to scroll through all the formats every time I use them. In older AI versions, each format was like a plug-in file that could be removed if not being used. It would also be nice if individual formats could be assigned keyboard shortcuts.

6. Option to define layer/ sublayer behavior

   Every time I open an old file all the sub-layers are collapsed

   Even though a lot of people wish for the option to auto collapse the sub-layers, I personally work a lot with them expanded.

   Hence my wish to have the option to set the behavior of the layers with sub-layers either auto-opened or collapsed (or as saved like last edit)

7. transform again tool glitch

   In Adobe Illustrator, I use the transform again tool a lot during my day to day and seemingly recently, it hasn’t been affecting live or outlined type* when it will affect any other regular object. Has anyone come across this on their own or know how to fix it? It will continue to transform the text if you scale up or down as well repeating moves but when scaling objects to certain sizes using the guides and then replicating the same growth on the text object doesn’t work.

   I’ve tried ungrouping, releasing the compound path, tried intersecting the shapes, the menu command

8. Color differents problem

   I have a problem with big color's preference difference between my AI monitor and real color on my and other machines. It's also concerning all the colors.
   I choose the red color and I get the brick color otherwise. Really in image and PDF file, I see the red color indeed.
   It's very serious problem for me, because I cann't know what the color I use to.

9. Move "Share on Behance" and "Save for Microsoft Office" and add Quick Export

   I do a lot of "rapid fire" exporting as I work mostly on card games in Illustrator. So a small change on 50-75+ cards requires me to (File, Export, PNG, Use Art Board, Overwrite, PNG Options, Ok) 50-75 times. Most annoyingly in this process, is when my hand slips and I click on Share on Behance or Save for Microsoft Office when I'm trying to Export. I think these options should be moved to their own category under "File" because I've never exported straight to Behance (I always export then upload separately if at all) and Save for Microsoft Office is literally a Save option so it should go with the other Save options. As for a "Quick Export" similar to Photoshop's, I think it'd be really nice to have an Export option that defaults PNG and Art Board's selected as the amount of times I don't select art boards or use PNG is very small in the 8 years I've worked in Illustrator. The specifics of Quick Export could also be adjusted in settings.

10. Apply colour mode to different artboards

    It would be great to have a feature where we can change colour modes for different artboards. This is extremely helpful in today's digital world, where we are working on Brand Identity design that involves the use of logo and colour palette extensively in print and digital media. This will help keep one master file for an extensive brand identity work and makes it easy to compare between CMYK and RGB colours/designs.

11. Make it possible to have NO active Artboard

    I often take screenshots of my work within Illustrator for Proofing purposes and more.. but when doing this I'm often stuck with the dark outline of the active artboard mixed in with multiple other images that do not have the dark artboard line. yes, often times I can simply hide artboards and get what I need, but other times what I'm looking for is only within my Trim view. So even when I go into Trim view and try to hide artboards to remove this dark outline, it does not. I recently learned that toggling to overprint fill turns the background white instead of gray, which is nice, but the active artboard line is still there. So, my first thought was to allow no active artboard to be possible. this could be done within the Artboard window, by clicking in the empty space beneath the artboard list (which currently looks like it does this, yet the Artboard still remains active (dark border).

12. One click flatten button, to Expand text and strokes for print/sharing

    Hi everyone,
    I'm a computer graphic design teacher at NABA. While teaching Adobe Illustrator, I’ve found it challenging to explain the concept of Expand Appearance and how to properly flatten text and lines for final output.

    It would be incredibly helpful to have a one-click solution that automatically handles proofing—expanding appearances, flattening both text and lines—and clearly indicates that the AI or PDF file is ready for print or delivery.

    I hope this suggestion makes sense. Many thanks!

13. Display Tablet : Wacom CINTIQ 22HD VS XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro REVIEW

    Hello everyone, I'm an Illustrator user, I usually use the Adobe Illustrator, Evernote, Dropbox software and tasks. Mostly Illustrator on my display drawing tablet.

    CINTIQ 22HD

    I know there are a lot of people who are looking for Cintiq alternatives as Wacom's tablets are expensive. I had been wanting a Cintiq for years but never really thought they were worth all that money. However, after I had a chance of using Cintiq 22HD for a few days, I came to realize that drawing on a display tablet is far quicker and more enjoyable than doing it on non-display tablets.
    SO, NOW I WANTED A DISPLAY TABLET TOO FOR TWO REASONS:

    1.Drawing on a display tablet was far more enjoyable than drawing with graphic tablets (like my Deco 01).
    It felt like I was actually drawing on paper.

    2.The higher precision and accuracy = I noticed I wasn't using the "undo" on Cintiq 22HD as much = less hours spent per painting.
    CINTIQ 22HD WAS GOOD BUT IS IT WORTH $1600?

    Although the drawing experience was really good (feels like Intuos but more precise!) on Cintiq 22HD, I still didn't think it was worth $1600. It's a 2012 model and the display was nothing spectacular considering the price. If the display was a higher quality and the tablet was slimmer, I would be dreaming of having one myself even at that price point. Anyways, I looked into cintiq alternatives and the closest thing seemed to be XP-Pen's newest model, Artist 22E Pro.

    XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro

    I ordered and had XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro display tablet for a day.
    It's been only a day but I already have a love and hate relationship with it...
    Here are the Pros and Cons

    PRO's:
    1.More affordable than Cintiq 22HD (although it's still not that cheap $899 / $799 until May 31)
    2.Screen temperature stays REALLY COOL (OMG I LOVE) vs Cintiq 22HD gets a little warm
    3.IPS Panel (wide view angles) and anti-glare coating's really good. (Cintiq 22HD's is grainy)
    4.Almost no lagging felt when drawing (14ms = same as Cintiq 22HD)
    5.Slimmer and smaller than Cintiq but has 21.5 inch screen (same as Cintiq 22HD)
    6.Parallax better than or similar to Cintiq 22HD
    7.Pen accuracy, sensitivity on point (except for the area close to the edges)
    8.Easy to use and install
    9.Sharp, good colors
    CON's: [UPDATE: I am told that these two issues are solved with recent XP-Pen drivers update]

    1.Display is not sharp (texts, image edges, lines are soft when they need to be sharp and clear)
    2.Lower pressure sensitivity levels (1%-20%) I feel like are not that accurate. I needed to put a little more force for the nib to register anything and that results in e.g. 20% opacity when I wanted 10%.
    3.Pen Batteries: You need to recharge pens. Not really a huge con for me because they give you two pens.
    4.No tilt on pen: not a big deal for me. Just mentioning for information as some people do care about this function.

    Other notable info:
    1.Color Gamut: standard (advertised as an "amazing" display). It covers 72%~78% sRGB. Just a standard. It's not really a con or a pro I guess.
    2.No pen stand: their site says they give you a pen stand. I only found a pen case.
    3.Adj. buttons on the display are stiff but you don't need to use them often once everything's set.
    4.Something about the way the pen nib works: related to the con I mentioned; I just didn't like the way it felt. The nib's a little bulky and doesn't feel good
    when doing detailed, light strokes. Depending on what kind of drawing you do, you may not even notice this.

    *I wrote no pen calibration in the image but the driver does have it I just missed it. However, that doesn't change my opinion on the lower pen pressure levels!

    SO, MY CONCLUSION IS:

    1.XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro display tablet is a pretty good alternative to a Cintiq with some better aspects (thin bezels, better parallax, 21.5 inch screen etc.)
    2.BUT! There are two major issues that made me return it. The pressure sensitivity was not up to my expectations. Maybe I am just used to Wacom pens but I felt like it's a little awkward when I needed precise strokes for details. Secondly, the display is not sharp (it's too blurry. It could be because of the anti-glare coating).

    Therefore this is a great display tablet for:
    -people who have never experienced higher end Wacom tablets
    -hobbyists artists
    -people who have not had good quality IPS monitors
    -people looking for a Cintiq-like display without breaking their bank

    Wouldn't recommend it to:
    -people who have used Wacom tablets (Intuos and above) and are used to them
    -professional users / serious artists

    *Note: if you intend to use two tablets from two different brands (e.g. Wacom Intuos and a XP-Pen display tablet) on one PC, keep in mind that there can be only ONE installed driver. You need to uninstall Wacom driver if you are using the XP-Pen tablet and vice versa.

14. Adobe fonts do not auto activate reliably. Constant issues with Adobe fonts activating properly.

    Your product does not auto activate and integrate "Adobe Fonts" properly. Fonts constantly fail to load or activate from the Adobe fonts library.

    When features like this are not available, you are selling us a product that does not work. Everyone paying for an adobe subscription should be refunded based on the value of the feature. I.e. we should all be refunded for the value of PANTONE color use your app lost... why are we constantly paying to subscribe to a suite of programs that does not live up to the features promised? Send me a letter when the class action lawsuit gets filed, I'll be taking my money back from Adobe's fraudulent business practices.

15. Allow user to set type font and size, and keep it until selecting a different font and size

    I think it would be great if the program “remembered” which type font and size I was working with before in the same file, and keep it that way until I change it. It would also be great to be able to set the type and size across the program if desired, and have it be saved that way until I change it to a different font/size. Because right now, it always automatically goes to the default font and size, which is inconvenient, especially since the default size is 48 point, which is HUGE.

16. Bring in PDF's without changing the formatting

    PDF's, sometimes, when brought in, NOT as an image, but embedded, changes font style widths, etc. This was another issue for me, with a client who built their file in ID and saved as a PDF and I brought it in and embedded it. I did not catch it, but it's clearly changed. I have the font, so that was not an issue, it just change the "BOLD" to "REGULAR". Picture attached shows the "original" PDF as a pic on the right. I have it at 50% opacity as I was comparing.

17. Please add legacy menus and tools as a workspace

    Please, please add legacy menus and tools as an option for a workspace. I have been using AI 3 for years on my old G5 and recently went to a new iMac and bought the full line monthly for all Adobe programs. Acrobat is so much better, PS is tolerable, but AI is near impossible! Everything has moved, the tools react differently and I'm having a heck of a time trying to find everything! Page setup is gone, I do a lot of Image Tracing (all the way back to when you needed that extra program to do it!) and I'm pretty lost. I have used AI 5 so I know that's okay, AI 6 changed a lot of things so I can't even download the version on the Cloud and use that, it's relatively useless. I'd like to keep the new engine while being able to find everything! Please! I know you can do it on some individual tasks and tools, but doing it as a workspace would make it so much easier.

18. Make Undo feature to not apply to selected objects

    Basically what the title says,

    An ability to isolate objects or lock certain layers where the undo feature will not apply to.
    There have been a number of times where I start to work on a complex graphic with separate parts to it where I later realize I made a mistake on a piece i did earlier, so instead of saving the project, undo everything, save again and re import the previous saved file or other copy paste methods, we can just select the objects where the undo feature will not apply to, to keep the progress of the work i did after my mistake.

19. bug: Screen turns black after choosing width tool

    In between bugs I still try to make something in Illustrator, and now this happened:

    1. I hit Shift + W on the keyboard to select the width tool.
    2. Instead of the width tool cursor, the cursor became a black rectangle.
    3. I noticed both the Selection tool and width tool were selected in the tools window.
    4. I dicided to click on an Anchor anyway, and the screen turned black. The video signal went off, monitor went on standby. The HDD/SSD light on the PC was flashing nonstop. PC did not respond to anyting (I think, but I could not see because there was no visual).
    5. Working file was recovered after reboot, that's nice.

    Win10, 32GB ram, 8core i7, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB, HighDPI scaling 200% (4k)

20. Share for Review Feature - Multiple Updates (Clearing Cache)

    I’ve been using Illustrator’s Share for Review feature and I honestly love it. It’s made collaboration with large teams so much easier it has organized comments, smooth conversations, and automatic updates when I refresh the link. It’s been a huge improvement for our big presentations and data-heavy reports.

    One issue I’ve run into: after many revision rounds, some reviewers don’t see the updated file unless they hard refresh or clear their browser cache. This can be tricky for clients or senior team members who might not know how to do that.

    If there’s a way to make updates appear more reliably without manual refresh/cache clearing, it would make this tool even better. Overall, it’s been incredibly helpful and I’d love to use it as our daily review workflow.
