When pasting into photoshop, masked objects should be defined by / constrain mask size. Objects / pixels outside the mask should be ignored.
When pasting a masked object from AI to Photoshop, the size of the object is determined by everything inside and outside of the mask. It should be determined by the size of the mask only. Photoshop interprets the clipboard size based on the entire object size rather than the masked size. The result is that the desired final cropped artwork is pasted pasted too small.
I believe this is a bug or design error. I am pretty sure much (much!) older versions of AI didnt do this.
I dont know of a scenario where the current action would be desirable.…2 votes -

Variable Width point distribution advanced controls
The standard distribution of the width points and number of width points needs a toggle to advanced controls where the width points can be locked to (or between specified) anchor points on the path.
I hypothesize that this would fix the glitch where the movement, addition or subtraction of anchor points throws the width distribution out of wack.• Would also like to see more pronounced the location of all width points when the path is selected instead of fumbling along the path; perhaps secondary color to standard layer color.
• Within the "Width Point Edit" dialogue, buttons to advance…

Make Envelope Distort to ignore the clipped part of a clipping group
I would like it to be possible to perform an envelope distort operation so that only what is in the clipping is taken into account in the calculation of object bending. At the moment, if I have, for example, objects (like circle) in a clipping rectangle and I use the "Make with Mesh" or "Make with Top Object" option to bend the whole thing to a different shape, the bend sizes are not only limited to the clipping but to all objects that are not visible and hidden under the clipping, causing it to be badly deformed. It would be…

Allow to set custom default layer colors, with options
In 2017 we asked to allow to customize colors for layers, so that edges drawn for object didn’t burn our eyes out: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31535431
In 2020 Illustrator team removed yellow color from the default 5th color for new layers, shifting the order, but never did anything with cyan, gray, black...
We need an ability to set up our own order for these colors.
We need to be able to store these as presets, so we can switch these.
We need a way to make a certain order preferred in a template or a document profile.
We need an ability to remap…

Allow appearances to apply to linked files
Linked documents (i.e. other .ai files) can't have their appearance modified.
I.e. if I have a vector design.ai, I can place it in another .ai document however no stroke or fill options actually apply to the file.
This makes scenarios where you have to invert the vector design.ai difficult without custom SVG filters to help try influence the linked document.

New Tool Suggestion: Color Harmony Tool
Dear Adobe Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I'm writing to propose the development of a new Color Harmony Tool for Adobe Illustrator. As a designer who frequently uses Illustrator for creating artwork, I believe such a tool would greatly enhance the creative process by facilitating better color combinations and harmonies.
Problem: Illustrators and designers often face challenges in selecting and maintaining color harmonies within Adobe Illustrator. While the existing color tools are robust, they could benefit from integrated features specifically tailored for creating and managing color harmonies.
Proposed Solution: Introduce a dedicated Color Harmony Tool that offers:

Batch Generation on Gen Ai (text-to-vector) Features
Do you know something that would be cool?
Some script only for testing purposes, or maybe this could be a feature.The script could generate all the 5 levels of Detail of Text-to-Vector
(and/or all levels of any feature that have or will have intensity control)I mean generating 5 copies, each one with the one of the 5 levels of the detail. and keep the other settings as the same for all the generations.
(the same for other gen ai features)I do this manually, but I will be very happy with a feature that does this for me.…

A 'snapshot' feature, similar to After Effects
I use After Effects 'Take snapshot' feature (Shift + F5) all the time. I always go to use it in Illustrator, but it's not here. It would be very handy for referencing changes or states.
