1. Linked Text 'Artworking Info' Panels/Tables

   When setting up artwork sheets, we often have to use the same job info across many artboards - it would be great to have 'linked' information/type, so when you update text in a textbox/panel on one artboard it will automatically update on other artboards.

   This could be done either by a table/panel which update, or being able to select individual pieces of info that you wish to auto-update.

   This would be a massive timesaver when artworking!

   Thanks!

4. More toggle buttons in top row / panel full of indicators

   You know, AI has a lot of options that can be turned on and off.
   And some of them switched on and off quite often: Snap to Grid, to Point, to Glyph, to Pixel... Guides, Smart Guides, Edges (can be both locked and / or hidden), Artboard Edges, Corner Widgets, Bounding Box...

   Of course, all of them can be accessed via View menu, but you just don't see them there! Users need no only SWITCH them, but KNOW what current state is.

   Are my guides are turned off or I've deleted them or moved occasionally?
   I want to draw a complex thing — is my grid's snap is turned on or I need to do it before I start?
   And so on.

   What about Use Preview Bounds? Hidden in Preferences.
   What about, Transform Pattern Tiles?
   Scale Strokes and Effects and Scale Strokes are duplicated in Transform, but that’s it.

   So we need indicator switches.
   And ideally we should choose ourselves which buttons we want to put there.

   You've started understanding it, when added these to Properties panel.
   But you take them away from those who don't use this panel.

   And yet you have a perfect place for these switches, in fact you already sort of using this place! It's right next to the rocket GPU icon.
   Put grid-snaps-widgets-indicators there, so we can always know what our current useful limitations are.

   Sure, this would make it seem like it’s an app level thing... at the same time we have Control panel and it’s above documents’ tabs anyway.
   Yes, you can make it a separate horizontal panel, but it will eat up the vertical space... you can put it in Control, but it’s full and we can’t make one sections of it to take priority over others.

   Still we need it!

5. Art brushes different weight value

   Well, this is complex one.

   As you know, a lot of people live in metric world.
   It means they use 'cm-mm' instead of 'inches-points'.
   I, for example, have all three major units set to millimeters — general, stroke and type.

   But each time I apply brush to anything, it gets weight '0,353 mm'.
   Yes, it is 1 point. And every time I need to scale my brush twice as normal, I have to type in '*2' in the end of 'Weight' field instead of just typing 2.

   Worse, when I don't remember what weight it has now, but need to change it, knowing it. I have to switch to points for stroke or calculate it somewhere.

   Even if I used inches — in fact, you can have fat-wide brush by itself, 10, 53, 0.64 inches or anything, and AI will show it as '1pt', when it's obviously NOT.

   Because it's '1x'.
   It is relative size, not absolute.
   One time as wide as original.

   So why won't you change the way this value is shown in Stroke palette?
   Let the weight of brushes be measured in relative units across all unit's setting.

   Make it an option, please.

6. Last used script

   Please, add a command inside File > Scripts (above the line) to execute last accessed script. A have tons of these and not all of them are bound to shortcuts and smarty palettes. Sometimes I have to apply same script several times and have to dig in all 4-5 folders inside to get right one.

   And, please, make it shortcut-able.

7. 'Use preview bounds' option for symbols

   AI allows to 'Use preview bounds' — to count in stroke's weight in artwork's size.
   I rarely use it, but I can always turn it off, like I do in screencast attached.

   But when I decide to turn my artwork to symbol, I'm limited to only one option — stroke is counted in ALWAYS. This is very inconvenient for some design tasks.

   I would like to have an option anywhere to change this behavior.

8. Dragging from Bridge to Illustrator

   Change the standard file-placement behaviour from Bridge to Illustrator so that it places the contents of the AI file (rather than a PDF or a PNG).

   Say you've got a local library of picture elements, and you're browsing it in Bridge; you need to bring those elements into a currently open AI file. What do you do?

   The obvious thing is to use Bridge like a library navigator, and simply drag the ai file into your composition. However, you can't;What actually happens is you get a PNG file; if you shift-drag you get a PDF file; both are useless.

   And if you go online, some smart person will tell you to use symbols libraries, which isn't a huge help.

   It would be even better if you could view it directly in the library panel in Illustrator. That would mean syncing your local library directory (and CC files) with CC Libraries.

9. Fix blending of strokes

   As described in this discussion (from 4 years ago!) - https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1291256 - in most cases when you apply a blend to two strokes with any profile other than uniform, the intermediate stages of the blended strokes do not have any profile applied to them. I believe this has been a problem at least as far back as the introduction of variable width strokes, and has still not been resolved. This seriously hampers the usefulness of the blend tool and massively increases the amount of time required to produce the desired effect.

   Blending paths with different stroke profiles, created with Width tool or picked from the panel, now works as expected — intermediate steps all have correctly blended profiles applied.

10. Export for Screens in AI should be just like PS's Version

    PLEASE make the export for screens function precisely like the one used in Photoshop.

    In particular:

    (1) it needs to be possible to export at <0.5x, which is currently the upper limit. If I am producing assets for iOS @3x for whatever reason -- say, they include an unscalable PNG from PS for instance -- to produce the 1x asset I need to export @0.33x, which you don't allow, but PS does. (less important but also mind-boggling is why you don't allow upscaling beyond 33.3x.)

    (2) The default export option should be to export to the SAME FOLDER IN WHICH THE FILE IS SAVED. This ridiculous omission costs me valuable time every time I have to export files in different locations. PS also has this correct.

    (3) Your defaults should be the default and they should change based on the file I have open, not based on the export options I had selected for the last file I had open, e.g. if I choose to export File A as 1.0x, 0.67x, and the aforementioned impossible 0.33x, the next time I export those options should NOT now be the default for an entirely different file, where most likely 1x, 2x, 3x are appropriate.

This way the panel will only shows what I want it to show and get ride for the stuff I don't use. I would like to at least be able to collapse what I don't use.

    Exporting slices should not force the creation of an "images" folder. I need to be able to export a slice and save it/overwrite to a folder of my choosing, exactly like a standard Save As. Currently, Illustrator will create and nest an images folder every single time....what a waste.

15. Be available to add more than 1000 artboards

    We are creating a document with icons. Each icon has it's own artboard because of exporting to multiple sizes. Currently we have about 1500 icons and we would like to have all the icons in one document because of effective work with them (which is now not possible because of 1000 artboards limitation).

16. Make panel layer thumbnail and text size scale able and part of default settings.

    In general allow for scaling of text in the UI, especially the layer panel. I have to strain to read the layer descriptions. Since I work a lot in After Effects I have to name all my layers. It would be easier to work if I could just glance over instead of working hard to read the little font sizes. I should note that I have a super high definition screen. Also these settings should be in the program settings so that on launch they are always the same no mater what document you open.

17. Set the default EPS version with options

    I work often in projects with collaborators from all over the world. We save our work in EPS and we have standardized on CS5. We are generally scientists, so we are most likely an exception; however, a way to set "project specific" defaults would be helpful that would allow to set the EPS save options.

18. 'Saved' menu in New Document window should show my custom templates

    1. Right now only templates from Adobe Stock show up here. It's counterintuitive. I would like to have my custom templates saved here. Otherwise they are relatively hidden at the bottom of the 'Web' or 'Print' lists.
    2. I would also like to be able to quickly save a template right from the new document window (not have to make a document, save as template, get permissions error, fix permissions, save template).
    3. The new document window is VERY SLOW to open. Legacy is instant and the lag is really frustrating.
       
    4. Please for the love of creative gods, fix the High Sierra/CC bugs. My programs crash my entire computer several times a day. Thank you.

20. Improve your UX/program behaviour for god's sake

    Illustrator is the worst program I have ever work with, an that's an opinion I share with a lot of designers. Nothing is logic, everything is a nonsense and I lost A LOT of time trying to make so simple things. Photoshop is awesome, after effects is awesome, don't know what happen to you with Illustrator, but please make a review of how it works and fix it
