Allow formatting of bullets & numbers in lists
Bullets and numbers currently inherit the formatting of the first character in the list item. This is not very flexbile and creates issues when in one list there are bold items and regular items.
There should be an option to add formating to the bullet as well as the numbers. Also: there should be an option to use any kind of character of a dingbats font as a bullet. Bonus would be if any kind of shape could be used.61 votes -
Square ZIG-ZAG effect
I'm surprised that a zig-zag feature is missing a "square" effect (see photo). It seems pretty basic thing since you have other types of vawy lines. Shouldn't be that much harder to implement compared to other effects.

Add option to change stroke/font units faster
For my workflow I constantly need to change the unit of strokes between points and inches. It would be nice to add a way to change them in 1 click rather than going Edit > Preferences > Units every single time. Not a huge change but would be quite convenient and probably fairly easy to implement. We can currently set the unit of the whole document in a window, but not things like stroke/font. Could just add the option to the existing stroke window like the attached picture.

Adobe illustrator is running slow for no reason
I have been using adobe illustrator for more than a year on my vurrent laptop and i never had problems (acer nitro 517-52 GTX1650Ti I5). I have updated my graphic drivers and illustrator too. I know i am using more and more fonts over the time. But since adobe illustrator crashed yesterday i doesnt stop lagging. When i am constantly zomming in and out with alt and middle mouse button its crashes in less than 5 sc and crash after placing down 5 rectangles in like 30 sc. My document size is 2000 by 2000 mm and i also tried…

フォント選択、フォントリストの「そのフォントの場所」からスタートしてほしい
フォントを選んでいるとき、常にリストの最初に戻るのをやめてほしいです。
「新ゴM」を選んでいたら「新ゴM」から始まってほしいです（以前のverのように）。
いろんなフォントを選んでいるときに毎回戻ってしまって、とても非効率です。
ぜひ改善してください。
よろしくお願いいたします。4 votes

リクエストの投稿をありがとうございます。
ご存知の機能かとは思いますが、現在のバージョンでは、「フォントの整理とフィルター」という機能が備わっています。
こちらをお使いいただくことで、幾分快適にご利用いただけるのではないかと思います。

.obj asset file multiple group/layer hierarchy
It’s very cool that you can export 3d models as obj - when I try to import the obj file Into blender, the group objects become scattered and lose there positioning that I have created - please make it so that when I import the file all of the objects are together / grouped as I intended and not scattered - great job on the new update 👍🏻

For the love please make it an option to group layers like in Photoshop. Sublayers just get super confusing.
Just like you do in Photoshop, please make it an option to make a folder to group your layers. You can keep sublayers, it's just my layers are constantly getting mixed up because of sublayers and it's just not easy to use.

Clipping mask with text
It would be musch easier if text could work as clipping masks without expanding (or apply the create outline command on) them.
Thanks for listening!

show swatch folders in recolor artwork panel
In the recolor artwork panel when you double click the color on the right to determine what the color is being changed to, you can choose from swatches by then clicking on swatches. But, it's just a list of all of the swatches with no indication of which swatch folder the swatches are in. This makes recoloring difficult at times

Pen tool - just double click last point to stop drawing (and leave path open)
It used to be (many versions ago) that if I was drawing with the pen tool, all I had to do is double click my last point, and it would end that graphic, leaving it open, and leaving the tool ready to draw another line. Now the only way to stop seems to be to hit return (which is awkward since I am right handed), go hit another tool, or use a keystroke. All of these take more time and break my train of thought.

Bullets & Numbering in Shortcuts
The menu items for bullets and numbering are not in "Edit shortcuts" At least not in the German version of Illustrator.
Could they perhaps be made available for shortcuts?

Fast way to make multiple text boxes
I like to break up words and phrases in to multiple text boxes so I can move them freely. It would be nice to have a fast way while typing out the phrase to break it in to more than one text box. Like a “command + enter” type thing that instead of going to a new line it goes to a new text box.

Apply arrowheads with eyedropper
When using the eyedropper tool on a line, I would like the arrowheads from the line I am imitating to be applied to the selected line. I don't want to scroll through all the arrowhead options for every line! If I apply it once, It'd be so much easier to eyedrop that same feature on all the other lines I need it for.
This is something I would use for my job while making tech packs every day! I have arrowheads on the ends of dimensions and callouts.

Linking issue, always linked together after copying
Illustrator : After copying artboards, it's still linked to the previous one, meaning whatever I do to the 2nd one, the 1st one effects too.
After Effects : After copying the composition, it's still ..... (the same thing happens).So I'd suggest if we have the option to link or not to (which means choose to be the same as the previous one we copied or not).
Because I am beating around the bush, just to adjust the current one that I've copied.Thank you so much! Vielen Dank! Xie xie!

API for getting the reflection/flip property of an image frame
We would like to get the flip property of an image frame..
It can be in a similar way to the way we get the rotation by passing the matrix:
AIAPI void (*AIRealMatrixGetRotate) ( const AIRealMatrix *m, AIReal *angle );If this is not possible, then as a workaround we can get some notifies, for example: kFlipHorizontalNotifier or kFlipVerticalNotifier in order to know that the user selects to flip the image.
Thanks,

Speed up Redraw with All Thumbnail Options on One Button
Switching off thumbnails for improved draw speed means switching various options and locations to get the layer, object and transparency thumbs all switched off. Working many customer files per day this is a drag.
Please put them all on one "thumbs" radio button with options for all-on, all-off, or custom preference, so I can get my work done faster.
Make this an application preference rather than document preference to save me even more time.
