Show gridlines in outline view
If "Show Grid" is activated, in Outline View, the grid is mostly invisible. It only leaves very subtle dotted lines along the major grid lines, but the subdivision grid lines aren't visible.
It would be nice to see some faint lines of the subdivision grid lines in outline view so when I'm zooming in very close, those lines don't disappear.

basic grammar in alerts please.
"close anyways" ? “anyway” is an adverb and it is impossible for adverbs to be plural.

Save AI and PDF files in the background
With the latest version of Illustrator CC 2020, we have a feature to save the AI document in the background but there is no way to save the document in the background via script.
Could you please add the same feature for scripting as well.?

Shortcut button for stroke width.
Why has there never been a shortcut for stroke width? For illustrators, this is a command done so often, that's it's a bit of a burden not having this as an option.
And I mean for strokes that are selected, after being drawn out already, not for the brush itself.

Ability to script warp text or object with horizontal and vertical distortions values
As of right now, it is difficult for me to adjust warp text using a JSX script since you do not expose the bend % or values of the horizontal and vertical distortions. Can this be added to JSX script?

Discounts for Senior Citizens
Adobe, I hope you read this, I was pointed here... I don't feel this is the correct place, but here I am. You have made Millions in Revenue in your last quarters and it would be really nice if you gave back to the folks that didn't have an income that still supported you! Seniors should get discounts along the lines of college students. Universities let them come to classes for free... While I am not asking or suggesting this, I do think that it is time you think about this as a Company.

Custom swatches/brushes in saved workspace
When working with a lot of custom brush and swatch libraries I noticed that every time I saved the work space it does not include the custom content.
Instead the windows are positioned like saved but I have to import all the libraries manually again.
I wish for Illustrator to save this content as well. so before starting a project I have a set of custom brushes and swatches available.

Allow adjustments to the path curves of a Freeform gradient line, please.
Please allow adjustments to the path curves of a Freeform gradient line, like handles.
Right now all that is allowed, is to add more points along the path, and the ability to move those points around, and the path/curves move automatically based up the shape of the object.
Please add selection point handles, so we can edit and adjust the curves of the line.

DWG export to have thumbnail/preview
DWG files exported from Illustrator have no way to be previewed without opening. DWG files saved from AutoCAD have a thumbnail image included in the file that can be shown by Bridge CC or windows file explorer. but illustrator doesn't seem to export these correctly. This makes it impossible to sort through large amounts of DWG files.

Ability to link SVG for datasets
When using variables in Illustrator, you're able to set an image as a dynamic object, so long as it's linked (File > Place, then check Link), as opposed to embedded. This means that I can't set SVGs as variables, since they can't be linked, and have to convert them into images in order to do so.

Image Trace options
I’ve been an Adobe user for over 20 years. I used to love using Streamline to convert raster to vector and then make adjustments to the levels before going to the direct select tool for further adjustments. I suggest adding in the adjustment/level options to Image Trace as Streamline used to have rather than just default vectorizing of images. Please do this. I’ve been meaning to suggest this for years. Thanks!

"EmojiOne Color" font in AI CC 2019
"EmojiOne Color" is a "color-only" font in AI CC 2019. Although it has "fallback" B&W characters that work fine in earlier versions of Illustrator the font CANNOT be change to B&W in AI CC 2019. This is a HUGE flaw in the font and should be made to work in either color or black and white mode.

Auto live paint
I very often colour linework using live paint. This is a great tool but if I could automatically colour every shape it would save a lot of time. At the moment I have to manually click every area I want to fill. Could this be done with one click? Many thanks.
4 votesYes, there is a way to fill many areas at once.
A double-click on a fill (or a stroke) should apply the currently chosen color to all sections that has this color (unless these are not separated with strokes).
A triple-click will change the color of all sections of the same color, no matter if these are separated or not.
Same applies to Live Paint Selection Tool.

Install brushes to Illustrator
Install custom brushes to Illustrator
With photoshop, you can install custom brushes. With Illustrator, you have to make any custom brush yourself which can be tedious and very difficult.4 votesIllustrator for desktop allows to save and import brushes with an ease.
To save brushes, just save a document with your brushes as an .ai file. You don’t have to have them on canvas for this, just in Brushes panel.
To load brushes, click the Brush Libraries Menu button in the bottom left corner of the Brushes panel (looks like a bookshelf). Choose Other Library, locate the brush library .ai file.
If you want to create, save and import brushes in Illustrator for iPad — you have to vote for this feature here: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/931888-illustrator-ipad-feature-requests/suggestions/41682511-import-or-create-brushes
