1. Put all Blend options and commands into one dialog / panel

   Blend Tool > Blend Options Panel stinks, nothing personal.
   I use the Blend tool. A lot. When I start a blend, the Properties Panel helpfully tells me that I have a Blend. Thanks for that. But I still have to go to Object > Blend > Blend Options to get any options for the Blend tool. What if the Blend tool options would magically appear in the Properties panel while I'm using that tool?

   Also, the Blend Options panel will not let me make any changes to the blend other than Spacing or Orientation. How about putting the other Blend Options (Expand, Release, Reverse Spline, etc.) in the Blend Options panel so that I can make or preview changes to the blend without having to click Object > Blend > Blend Options each time?

2. Option to permanently expand areas of the Properties panel

   I have a lot of empty space in the new Properties panel.
   Having to click the '...' every time I want to access extra options seems clunky when I have so much unused space.
   In the old interface you could double-click on the top bar of a panel and it would expand to your preference and remember that expansion.
   A similar option here would be welcome.

3. Allow us to customize/choose features/controls/order in Control panel

   A Feature that can be used by any Tool or Panel which is most common (like Fill & Stroke), that should not be active in the both (Control Bar & Properties Panel )sides at a time.

   When Text Object is selected by Arrows.
   If you have selected Text by using Arrows/Selection Tools, you should have good options in the Right Click's menu, like Spell Checking which is logical according to selection.
   It would be also better if these features will be added in Control Bar by replacing redundant Features Like Fill & Stroke which can be used by Panels and Tool Bar or These Options (Spell Checking) according to selection (Text) should be in the Properties Panel with the properties of current tool selected/Active, (hope Properties Panel would be converted into Tools Properties Panel)

5. Layer Panel Rename + tab

   This one is (or sounds) easy and would mimick Photoshop’s function :
   I need to be able to rename layers in a row without scripting, by simply typing tab to go to the next visible layer’s name.

   • it would really help with Character Animator's process.

   Step by step :

   I’m in the Layers panel.
   Those are badly named (layer 1, layer 2, layer 7…)
   I double click on the top layer (1) name to change it.
   I type « item A »
   Then i press Tab once.
   I’m now in the « layer 2 » name field, and all is selected.
   I can there type « item B »
   then press Tab…

   Shift Tab would take me one layer up.
   When I’m done, I press the Enter key.

   right now, it requires double-click, type, enter, then move the mouse, double click, type, enter.
   And going between keyboard and mouse in inefficient.

   Sadly, the recent accessibility improvements broke the way this feature works.

   If it affected your workflow, please upvote this bug request:

   Tab now shifts to toggle buttons in Layers Panel instead of renaming the next layer

7. Keyboard shortcut for Properties panel

   There is a keyboard shortcut to go to any other windows option except this.. I don't know if it is because it is a new feature, but this should really be implemented... Can there be a mappable keyboard shortcut for the new properties panel on illustrator

8. Properties Panel Lack of alignment on single object

   Hello the new properties panel is good however if you select a single object there is no option to align that object, if you select more than one it comes up...

   THis would be very handy on a single object

   Hi Everyone,

   Thanks for this feedback. This has been avialble since June 2020 release (version 24.2). Further, when you’ll select a single object/group, Align To setting will default to Align To Artboard.

   Please 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.

   Thanks,

10. Make the new "Properties" panel optional.

    The idea of the properties panel is nice, but it should be customizable. For example, the four pathfinder tools that come up when more than one object is selected aren't the main four that I use, so it would be nice to be able to switch out the default four that pop up.

    It would also be nice if there were a way to not use the new properties panel, and be able to switch in the windows drop down menu to using the old properties panel that is in the top bar across the screen. I don't love the new properties panel from the stand point that it takes away so much of my screen. Most of the time, the entire bottom half of the properties panel is empty. I'd rather just lose a little of the view of my workspace with the thin bar across the top of my screen how it used to be, as opposed to how it is now where I gain just a little more of a view without the bar on the top, but lose so much of the meat of the width of my workspace.

    Maybe I just haven't played around with this enough, but as soon as I saw this is how it worked, and couldn't figure our a way around it, I was instantly frustrated. If I wanted to use this kind of interface, I would just go use sketch or try out XD. But i feel like illustrator should say the way it is. If its not broke, don't fix it.

    Hi,

    If you want to switch the older control panel you can do that in 2 ways:
    1. Go to Window > Control and the control panel will be shown.
    2. Go to Workspaces and switch to Essential Classic, this will also show the Control panel on the top.

    Thanks & Regards

11. Implement quick filter in Layers panel

    On large documents designers very often give names to objects in document structure for improve navigation in structure. But now there are no way to quickly find object by name in document, except custom scripts.

    For solve this problem please implement quick filter input field in Layers panel interface, for quickly search objects by part of his name (like filter in Fonts list).

    Even if designer don't add names, via this filter we will can quick find all curves, all rectangles, all circles, all curves, all guides, etc, so it will be very useful.

    Hi Everyone,

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

    The new functionality allows searching layers by name using the searchbar in the layers panel. The users can also apply filters based on layer properties (locked, hidden etc) or objects properties (effects, text etc.). This will help to quickly find layers/objects for large documents (having multiple layers).

    Read more about this - https://helpx.adobe.com/in/illustrator/using/whats-new/2023-5.html#search-and-filter

    Thank you for all the feedback.

12. Gradient properties in the properties panel

    I am liking the new properties panel, but currently if i want to fill an object with a gradient, i still need to access this via its own window. Would be great if gradient options could be incorporated into the Appearance section of the Properties Panel

14. Multipage PDF export in the Asset Export Panel

    The Asset Export panel is really great and you can export Artboards as PDF but each artboard is a PDF file.

    It will be so great to add a checkbox to export the selected Artboards as a unique Multipage PDF.
    Currently you can export in PDF using Save as… PDF, you have to enter manually the pages ranges and it's not memorized for the next export like in Export for Screens (Asset Export panel).

15. You cannot add a Freeform Gradient to the Swatches Panel

    FREEFORM GRADIENT, the new feature in Ai CC 2019. You can create amazing gradients, however, you cannot save any free form gradient created to the Swatches panel or the Cloud Library... why?

    Its a great feature, however, it makes for so much extra work if you want to use any free form gradient you create in one file, in another file or project in the future... it would be logical to be able to save this new style of creating gradients to the CC Library and to one's Swatches Panel.

20. Align panel: Objects touch edges

    I draw as well as design web layouts in Ai, and I spend a lot of time sliding objects around on a pasteboard and using Smart Guides to snap them next to each other so they're touching. I'd like to add a set of features to the align panel that allow you to select two objets, define the target object with a second click, and then define which edge of the objects you want them to touch on: top, bottom, left, right.
