1. Free Distort Bounding box doesn't follow shape

   I know this isn't a bug, but it definitely feels that way. The Bounding box when using the free distort reset back to the initial shape and doesn't follow the shape you are shaping, Which makes it virtually impossible to make fine tuned distortions. The way it works in Photoshop is the way it should be.

   I see people have complained about this for YEARS!
   I cannot see a single use case where the current way is preferable.

   And using the effect Free Dstort isnt anybetter, since you don't get a visual representation on the artboard of what you are doing.

   Please ADOBE!! fix this

   Hi Everyone,

   We have improved the working experience of Free Distort tool. Now the bounding box will not reset! This functionality now is available in our latest release build – 24.1.1 for Win and 24.1 for Mac which is available worldwide now.

   What’s new in 24.1: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/whats-new.html

   You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

   Thank you for all the feedback

2. 字形パネルメニュー「標準字形に戻す」の仕様が間違っている

   日本語版Illustratorの字形パネルメニューには、メニュー項目「標準字形に戻す」があります。

   期待する「標準字形に戻す」の仕様：
   選択文字からGSUBフィーチャーが取り除かれ、そのフォントのデフォルトグリフが表示される。ただしccmpのようなデフォルトで有効なフィーチャーは除く。InDesignはこの仕様。

   現在の日本語版Illustratorの「標準字形に戻す」の仕様：
   選択文字にGSUBフィーチャー「fwid」（等幅全角字形）が付与され、等幅全角字形のグリフが表示されてしまう。

   標準字形の意味は、デフォルトグリフ（フォント内のcmapテーブルでマッピングされているグリフ）です。標準字形が「fwid」を意味することは決してありません。InDesignの仕様が正しく、Illustratorの仕様は間違っています。

   おそらく字形パネルが実装された当初から間違っており、現在でも間違ったままです。ユーザーはこの間違った仕様にいつも苦しめられています。

4. Change values with scrubbing sliders

   It would be great if, as Photoshop, we can just click and drag on the text dialogs to quickly “scrub” values.

6. Show HEX value in swatch panel

   I often need to copy HEX values from illustrator swatches into other applications. My workflow would be accelerated if there was a text field showing the HEX value like in the color picker window.

   Right now I need to apply the swatch to an object and copy the HEX value from the color picker window.

   Hi Everyone,

   This functionality is available in our latest release build – 27.6.1.

   Hex code for the colors is visible in the Color and Swatch Option Panel. It will be visible for Global Colors as well. You can easily copy the Hex value by clicking on '#' icon before the code.

7. Customize page sizes and templates on Home screen

   On the new Home screen in Illustrator 23, there does not appear to be any way to customize the list of page sizes that appear in the "Create a new file" section (as shown in the attached screenshot), at least as far as I can tell.

   Three of the sizes shown in this list (A4, Postcard, iPhone X) are ones that I rarely work in, and would be willing to select them from the Custom option when needed. On the other hand, I do frequently work in US letter and statement sizes, but there doesn't seem to be any way to create those in a single click from this screen; the only way to create documents in these sizes is to click Custom and select them manually from the full list.

8. Allow to sort swatches by Hue, Saturation, Luminosity and other values

   Right now AI allow to globally sort swatches by name and kind. It is not enough though.
   1. I need to sort each group in it's own way (automatically) — thefeore I need context menu to work with color groups with needed options
   2. I need more sorting parameters
   3. I need each group to remember sorting and have a checkmark near it in said context menus
   I guess it could also be tucked in palette menu, but I can't give you a way to keep compatibility with current global sorting behavior.
   Please figure this out.

   Now available in the latest GA build 30.2.1.

   Not perfect (Absolute mode in Transform Each gives inaccurate dimensions with Scale Strokes & Effects disabled, here’s the report), but usable already.

10. Make Static Symbols the default, instead of Dynamic Symbols.

    A new symbol is saved as "Dynamic" by default. Please make "Static" symbols the default. They are the "Standard" and should remain the default. It is the exception when I want a "dynamic" symbol.

    The choice of the type of a symbol is sticky in the latest version of Illustrator. If a user toggles it to Static, it remains Static when another symbol is created — and vice versa.

11. Create an Ungroup ALL feature on layer(s).

    It would extremely useful being able to select the artwork on the layer and clicking an ungroup all option This would speed up prepress production especially when there are multiple grouped objects on a layer.

12. TateChuYoko’s Adjustment value is limited to an integer in point

    The "TateChuYoko" using for vertical writing text, under use in Japanese environment.
    The adjustment value is set only to integers of points and it is very troubling.
    In that state, I can only do a rough job too much.
    I would like to improve so that more detailed values can be set.

    Can you guys PLEASE make 'Smart Guides' better? For example, I work with product UI/Graphics and I'm always having to zoom in 1400% to clearly align and place objects on top of other objects, but the snapping is NOT GOOD AT ALL... Can you guys make things snap to each other like other programs are able to do so like CAD programs etc...

16. Add ability to hyperlink text (properly this time)

    In June of 2023 the Illustrator team fixed a old bug with hyperlinks added through Attributes panel being dropped while exporting as PDF.
    The team thought of it as a solution to this request: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/40418827 — and marked it as such.

    I do not agree.
    The solution is nowhere final, done in the most basic way possible, merely a bug fixed, like if no-one in the team did try to make it useful at the level of today's standards.
    — A partial text selection can't be made into a hyperlink.
    — No widgets are given on the canvas to see if an object has a hyperlink assigned or not, and to open the link directly from the canvas (with or without a modifier).
    — Attributes gives no way to jump to a previous/next hyperlink in the document.
    — The 'browser' button uses the IE browser, not the assigned one at the OS level.
    — If I cover an object which has a hyperlink assigned, with another object that has another hyperlink, the area they shared together is overtaken by the one which is below, and not according to their z-order.
    — 'Polygon' image map option does not work, the object gets a rectangle area still. The sacred knowledge about creating polygonal image maps in Ai is long lost, and the only mention the official manual has about it is here (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/slices-image-maps.html) — but it never actually tells how to create these. Surely not via rectangular-only slices. It should just happen automatically, and it does not.
    — What about automation? To have the links to be auto-tagged, like this solution for InD does (https://www.id-extras.com/products/hyperlinkpro/)?
    — What about auto styling, like InD provides?
    — Will we be able to fine tune the look of the Character’s 'Underline' option? Nobody places lines this close to text anymore on web.

    So yes, this should be made BETTER.

17. 【寸法ツール】オプション設定内への要望

    Illustratorで簡易図面を描く事が多い為、Beta版で追加された「寸法ツール」はとても便利な機能となるはずなのですが、現状では重要な機能が足りておらず図面という用途では使用できません。

    【要望1】「先端位置」の選択が寸法ツールオプション内で出来るようにして下さい。

    現状では矢印のスタイルで「●（矢印21）」などを使用した際に、寸法補助線に対して線の芯に「●」の中心が配置されず、2本の寸法補助線の内側に収まる形で表示されてしまいます。

    【要望2】単位選択時に、「単位自体は表示させない」というチェック項目を付けてください。

    通常長さの寸法を入れる図面では、1つ1つの寸法線に単位は記載しません。数字だけを記載します。
    単位（㎜を使用するのかcmを使用するのかpxを使用するのか等）はアートボード全体で統一する為、1つ1つの寸法線に記載せず、1つのアートボードに対して「寸法の単位は㎜です」等を1カ所に記載する場合の方が多いです。
    ※ただし、直径（φ）・半径（R）・角度（°）の記号に関しては常時表示が必要です。

    【要望3】寸法線に対する数字の位置改善を希望します。

    寸法線の数字は縦線に対して線の左横、横線に対して線の上に配置されるのが望ましいです。改善、または選択可能にしてください。

    以上3点の機能改善を期待しています。

18. AI 2020 slow

    I am working on a 2017 iMac pro with an 18 core Intel Xeon W processor, 128 GB of 2666 MHz DDR4 memory and a Radeon Pro Vega 64 GPU (16 GB memory). I just (November 5, 2019) updated to AI 2020 and everything is significantly slower than the last version of AI 2019 (yes, GPU enhancement settings are on). I purchased AI CS because it had the GPU enhancement and it was 64-bit allowing me to work with the rather large vector images produced during my data analysis from spacecraft. However, this slow down is like going back to AI CS 5. What changed/went wrong in the new AI 2020 that caused such a drastic change in performance? AI 2019 was fast and great but something broke in 2020 making everything (saving, dynamic manipulations, etc.) much slower.

    Happy to share that you can now format your text using the following keyboard shortcuts :

    You can also customise these shortcuts from the keyboard settings
