  1. 白色底的文档导出缺少边界 / A way to export an image with canvas color visible when Use Artboard option is disabled

    当画板为白色底时,右键“导出所选项目”,导出的文件没有边界,无法分辨单个项目。
    目前的解决方法是在画板上添加一个有描边的矩形,但是当有多个画板时这个方法会比较麻烦。另外一种方法是每个画板单独导出一张图片,再整合到一个文档里,这样也会增加很多工作量。希望团队能有更好的方案。
    使用场景举例:当给客户提案或预览整体效果时,需要将多个画板同时导出到一个文件(png或jpg),这时如果画板底色为白色,就无法分辨边界。

  3. Calculate surface area with Dimension tool

    With the last update, you brought the possibility of customizing the scale in the dimension tools, thank you for that. Would it be possible to obtain a new tool for calculating the surface area in m², by selecting any closed shape?

  4. Allow to set up Viewing options for PDF exported, like InDesign does

    Do you think we could have Viewing options added as implemented in InDesign?

  5. Modern 3D effects need more control over mapping

    Map art lacks of control. I can't find a right way to place my art along the shape I've created. Previous versions let us place graphics, symbols, along the created shape and play around to find the desired way to make the art. Please add more graphic placement controls for symbols or graphics in 3D shapes.

  6. リンクファイルを見つける際の「すべてに適用」を復活させてほしい

    Ver25にアップデートしたところ、リンクファイルを見つける警告において「すべてに適用」のチェックができなくなっているようです。
    これがないと、全リンクファイルを何百点あろうがひとつづつ選択しなおさないとなりません。
    復活しない限り、ヴァージョンアップは出来ません。

  7. Fix on Crop Mark Position in Save as PDF

    If I select the color bar and page information in Marks and Bleeds, the position of the crop mark will be shifted slightly above the center of the page, so it would be helpful if you could position it at the center of the page.
    Because the distance of the misalignment is so small, it is often overlooked, and when ordering prints online, it is inconvenient because you have to manually adjust the position or remove the color bar and page information before saving the file.

  8. Align objects according to order of selection (first / last)

    Align objects according to order of selection. Simple. No more moving objects forward or back just to align correctly. It is so stupid and I'm sick of it!

  10. Menu and Tool UI text, sliders, buttons and fields should be easier to click. larger clickable area around each tool options.

    The clickable area of many UI elements are smaller than they appear making the process tedious an needlessly taxing.

    In my pic my cursor is clearly inside the opacity field but I cannot yet activate it. As it is currently design, I need to be unnecessarily precise. Makes no sense.

    The entire UI could stay the same size but clickable areas should become larger.
    Text based buttons like opacity should be treaded like buttons with a large clickable area (opacity in a box with ample padding).

    There would only be improvements to the UX, no downsides.
    If anyone has suggestions…

  11. Actual Status Bar instead of Spinning Beach Ball

    When working with larger images or complex art I can imagine that Illustrator or macOS need caching or need to write temp files somewhere.

    I work in the sign business so we work with very large images frequently, for car wraps or large wall art for instance.

    Often the infamous Spinning Beach Ball appears when moving or copying fairly large images. This can take several minutes.

    It would be nice to have an actual status bar instead of the Spinng Beach Ball so that we can see what Illustrator is actually doing and how long it would take to finish…

  12. Need 'Allow Tool Recording ' feauture in Illustrator's Action Panel

    I'm a graphic designer, digital artist, and traditional painter with over 20 years of experience. As a digital artist and painter, I would like to record my workflow within Illustrator with targeted layers, similar to how Rebelle records only top layers. I would greatly appreciate it if you could implement the tool recording and workflow recording options in Illustrator specifically for particular targeted layers or for all the layers in a project. This would be a great option for all digital artists, as it would save us time in recording and showcasing our work in video form. It's a very…

  13. Embed as attachment a DXF version of the illustration in the Export as PDF option

    Most often when designing files for logo or marquing tools we need to export a viewable PDF version and e CAD file as DXF.
    In order to keep them synced, it's convenient to attach the DXF as an attachment in the PDF.

    Could it be possible to impement this workflow in Illustrator? either in the "Export PDF" option or via a script/action command?

    Many Thanks

  15. Add metric units in 3D

    When generating 3D, even if 2D path could be very precise in dimension, the 3D volume is most often expressed in proportion (from 0 to 100%)

    When you try to export for 3D printing it could be more usable to be able to express in metric units...
    Like it has been done in Photoshop some times (years) ago ;-)

  16. How to make home page preview transparent background?

    Hello! I am wondering how to change the preview mode on Illustrator's home page to be transparent instead of white. It just started doing this recently and I can't figure out why. It's nothing much but annoying to me.

  17. Add Enclosed mode for Lasso tool (for full objects)

    建议增强或调整“E选择模式”。
    目前的“E选择模式”非常棒,但是当选择复杂背景上的对象时存在不足。
    选择工具(V):“E选择模式”是在拖动后触发,拖动就会移动点击对象,可以考虑调整为鼠标按下时,按下“E键”进入选择模式(不选择点击对象,只选择选框内的对象),原因是选择工具无法在非锁定的对象上拖动选择(锁定复杂背景也不是一件容易的事情),只能把选择工具移动到背景外再拖动选择,这会增加选择范围,有时候会把不需要选择的对象选中;
    另外,可以考虑套索工具增加“E选择模式”,因为套索工具可以在任意对象上拖动选择。

  18. Padding and margin in Illustrator objects

    It would be interesting to be able to place a margin or padding on objects such as shapes or text, in addition to a magnet system in which you can select what to stick this margin to, it could be vertex or edges.

  19. Template for cartons and boxes

    Please put a template generator for boxes. You can google for 'carton box generator', and it should be easy for you to add this feature in Illustrator.
