2. can we have a Chinese paragraph arrangement function (Hyphenate) in English Illustrator, which is now only available in Chinese illustrator

   as a Chinese English Illustrator user, we are more familiar with English Illustrator interface than Chinese, even though we can read Chinese. It will be really convenient for us to have the hyphenate function, which is now only available in Chinese Illustrator, to be also available in English Illustrator, like Hebrew, Arabic, Dutch etc...

   As per the comment, these are available by enabling the East Asian options in Text Preferences: Kinsoku Set and Mojikumi Set. Please reply if it solves this for you.

3. Type number of sides for polygon tool and star tool

   Currently to get a number of points on a star you have to type the [up key] or [down key] But often I know what number of points or sides I want on the polygon or star.

   I'd like the ability to type the number of sides/points.

   This could be achieved in a number of ways:
   - An option panel (could change it after the fact as long as it is selected as long as the points haven't been moved?)
   - hold and drag and type the number (say 3, 6, 9, etc)
   - double click on the polygon/star icon on the tools palette which brings up a dialog box Then you can type in things like number of stars and size similar to the Line segment tool. (Also extend this to the rectangle, etc tools?)

   I'm pretty sure implementation of this probably would be a bit tricky? The number trick for hold and drag for sides 1-9 probably wouldn't be as hard to implement, given that up and down keys are already cued to the number of sides.

   The rest of it has some architecture, but probably would take longer to implement.

   It's annoying to have to go "I need an octagon, but I just got 9 sides" and then go, "Oh, I need a pentagon...." and then spend a good few minutes trying to magically get the number of sides. And then going, "Oh ****, I'd like to get the octagon again and it would be easier to draw it out than find where my last octagon was..." and then sit there again hoping to get the perfect number of sides.

   I'm not saying "eliminate the up and down key" because sometimes people don't know how many sides they need, etc and want that randomness, but I want precision too and sometimes on a new document that's super annoying.

   BTW, Scripts don't particularly work on my computer. So please don't recommend scripts.

5. Allow Shaper Tool to create stars

   Shaper Tool allows to create live rectangles, ellipses, polygons in a freehand manner: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/building-new-shapes-using-shape.html

   Recently a new live shape got added into Illustrator — Star.
   But Shaper Tool won’t create one if you try to scribble it.
   Not sure how popular Shaper Tool is, but it should be able to do it anyway.

   Original idea by Monika Gause.

6. Optimization of Rounded Rectangle in Illustrator Effects

   When using the Rounded Rectangle of Illustrator Effects, I hope that the upper and lower values ​​​​can be set separately, because when this effect is applied to text, the upper and lower heights are not even.

7. Allow the bullet behavior to be turned ON or OFF

   I would very much like to have the option to turn the Bullet behavior ON or OFF. - Part of why I use Illustrator as much as I do is that I like to have complete control of my design. I use InDesign in a very limited, specific way, even with book layout, i.e. TOC & pagination. - For example, I'm trying to make headers for a short PDF and I can't add numbers before my headers without loosing control of the styling. They've been gobbled up by the bullet functionality and I can't even change the color. I can't stand the bullet function... I'm going to have to have 2 separate text boxes to make a simple numbered header. And I'm not going to set up a style for a short PDF, it's not worth my time. - I can see that some people want that InDesign bullet behavior in AI.. I'm fine with that, just give me the option to DISABLE the bullet feature - PLEASE!!

9. Change thickness of the bounding box lines

   Some of the bounding boxes are not easily visible on some colors. Although that can be changed based on the layer options, it would be beneficial for those who are using high res monitors and/or don't see as well to make them thicker.

10. Make Check Spelling work in Finnish

    I have searched for answers in community and tried all the suggestions.
    At least English, Spanish and Swedish spell checking is working.

    I have changed the language to Finnish in preferences hyphenation settings, character styles, paragraph styles and in the written text box. Spell check finds no words and automated check also does nothing.

14. Addressing long-standing graph tool issues

    Just went back to prerelease site where I logged a complaint about the Radar graph. Feedback was that the error was not an error but an intentional result. I am however not satisfied with that reply. Other graph tools remember grid line settings, font settings, etcetera. Radar tool reverts all those settings every time the graph is updated. This is not a logical result. But this is just one of many complaints about the graph tools and there has been zero development of graph tools, as far as I can see, since they first appeared over 30 years ago. I get angry every time I try to see if there has been any fix to ongoing errors, any new development in graph elements. Unfortunately for me there is no other graphing tool available that can give the graphic effects I require. For the umpteenth time please get some of your very talented developers to work on - or re-write - the graph tools. I rely on graph tools every day and have lots of awkward work arounds to get the work done where it should, and could, be much easier. LISTEN to your users for a change.

15. A way to lock colors to prevent them from changing in Recolor dialog

    When recoloring art, it would be AWESOME to have a lock function next to the swatches. There is already a way to lock a swatch that you don't want to recolor, but it'd be nice if, as you cycle through the swatch/recolor options, you could lock or "freeze" ones you like and continue to recolor the unlocked swatches.

17. Tool tip switch in the program's top panel

    It would be great to have a tooltip switch in the program's top panel, as it is not possible to disable them from the first launch of Illustrator, and it's not very obvious in general. Therefore, I suggest adding a toggle switch for these tooltips. While they are indeed helpful, it's not always easy to remember what each tool is for. However, during active work, having the tooltips constantly displayed can be distracting, and to turn them off, one has to go into the settings and disable "Show tool tip." It would be nice if tooltips were also implemented for the effects menu and the entire menu.

19. Opentype + Glyphs UI Menu Preview

    While the UI for Opentype is appreciably better than Indesign, there are still a few hinderances in the UI that make it painfully difficult to use and limits functionality. This could solved in one (hopefully easy) solution: PREVIEW TYPOGRAPHIC FEATURES

    THE PROBLEM:
    Currently, you have to click the stylistic set to open a dropdown menu, once you’ve clicked a style, the dropdown disappears. To see another style you need to open the dropdown menu again and deselect the previous style you just selected. Open the dropdown menu again, and then select the next style.

    THE SOLUTION:
    Opentype and Glyphs panels should behave just like the Fonts Menu: When you open the font family menu with text highlighted, each font you hover over previews on your selected text.
    This needs to be replicated for Opentype and Glyphs. So once you open the dropdown for Stylistic Sets or Glyphs, each style you hover over, will preview in real time on your selected text or in a pop up menu.

    Not only will this SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE USER EXPERIENCE by removing all the clunky impediments, it will also IMPROVE ACCESSIBILITY! As someone lightly vision impaired, it is extremely difficult to see small details in the font + glyphs menu. Having the ability to preview the changes on highlighted text, allows me to see the styles at a visible scale!

    Please Adobe team make these changes!🙏 It will make Opentype and Glyphs easier to use and more accessible to all. 😊

    Also sorry if this request already exists - it's really hard to search and navigate posts. 😞

20. Feature Request: Preference for Copy and Duplicate Layers without auto renaming and adding "copy" to them

    Hi Adobe 🙂

    I make large Illustrator files that have lots of layers, and often I find myself copying a layer that has a ton of sublayers. I spend way too much time renaming the copied layers removing the word "copy" or "copy 3" etc from the sublayer names.

    I have found some workarounds, if this helps anyone. If I want to copy a layer called **, I will copy it, then rename it XXXz then paste and the new pasted layer is ** without the name copy, then I can go back and remove the z from the name of the source layer.

    But often, I just want to option drag a complicated layer or a number of elements into another layer and have the names not change.

    Can we make a preference for not renaming duplicated or copied files? It would save me a ton of time and effort, and it seems like it wouldnt be a big deal to add a feature like that - it's not really complicated, but of course it takes time and resources away from other things perhaps?

    Still if it's an easy fix PLEASE consider it? It would save me many hours of time over a month.
