Illustrator - Text format
Hi,
This may be a problem specific to biologists, but I often have imported figures with text that has to be partially italicized (species names mostly). It would be very helpful if text formatting commands could be repeated by a keyboard shortcut - preferably Ctrl/Cmd Y so my fingers wouldn't have to learn anything new.
It would also be useful if Find and Replace included a formatting option, so all instances of a particular string could be bolded or italicized or whatever.
Thanks,
Barbara

Text does not change the size of it when increased the size of the text box anymore
Since the updates, the text size does not increase proportionally (holding the SHIFT Key down), or non-proportionally when re-scaled the text box, I loved that feature and I'd request you to bring that feature back.
Thanks and regards,
Arieona Burse

Add Canadian English to languages
Canadian English is missing from the language list. It has grammar and spelling rules of its own, and it is strange that despite its inclusion in InDesign it is missing in Illustrator.

Always show text panel option by default (always on)
The fact that we now have to click a button to show optional items for the text panel in Illustrator hinders my workflow. It would be nice if we could make the options visible be default (always have them shown). For anyone creating logos or working with type, this is an absolute must!

Problem with the Type menu > Change Case
Using change case will re format or strip[ the typeface and other attributes of the text! This is a bug, not a feature!

option+delte to erase whole words.
To speed up deleting words, I wish Illustrator has an option to delete whole words using the both delete keys (num keyboard).

Free Distort Zoom
You guys should allow Free Distort to be zoomed-up on in the Free Distort window. It'd be nice to be able to zoom up real close into that window like one can on an artboard.

Copying text styles whilst still using text tool
Can a better way of picking a text style other than using the picker tool as this takes you out of text editing mode which is really inconvenient especially when you have selected a text box which is several layers below another item. I would be really great if whilst I was in the text box I could use something like the Ctrl+Shift key to get the curser to change to the Picker tool so that I can copy an existing text style from nearby.

Word count
Please add a words count in Illustrator. In Indesign this is also a missing feature (at lest for the whole document) but I see it has been already requested...in Illustrator it would be more than welcome.

Please make Optical Kerning the default instead of Automatic
Please make Optical Kerning the default instead of Automatic.
It's a draw on productivity when I have to change Optical Kerning to Automatic in each new document.

Default overprint black text is missing in AI 2020 v24.2.3.
Several generations earlier this feature was the default. Although type is filled black by default, it is NOW not set to overprint. I have to select all the black type and manually open Attributes panel and select "overprint fill." This is counterproductive.

Double-click of text should not select trailing space on macOS
On macOS, When using double-click to select a word in a text object, Illustrator is also selecting any trailing space. That is a common Windows behavior, but shouldn't be that way on macOS. Double-click should just select a the word (no surrounding whitespace).

Text moves when adjusting an applied Text Effect...
When you apply Arc (or any other text effect) to text, then adjust the percentage of Arc, the text moves up. You have to reposition the text to where it was... Inconvenient when you're trying to warp the text around an existing object. Would be ideal if the text would stay in place when the effect is adjusted.
