Create an Action from History Panel
Ok... I've hit on an idea.. I think. Have you ever been experimenting and hit on a great idea, or manually created an effect to lettering, and would like to apply the same treatment to other objects?
This could be an option in the Actions panel to create an Action from history. This would involve a couple new tools. A History panel like Photoshop, and an option to create an Action from already performed steps.

Raster Effects Resolution
Currently the Raster Effects Resolution has only 4 options 300/150/72 & 36 ppi. At times, specially when working for CMYK prints, the designer needs a specific resolution which is currently not available. I would suggest that there should be Custom option to input the desired resolution.

Select all the value at once
Is it possible when clicking on a value such the shape, dimensions or text height etc. to select all the value so it can be replaced faster. Right now I have to delete the values number by number or select all with Ctrl-A then delete.
It would be appreciated if you have the option to select all when clicking on it.
It will save a lot of time.
Thank you1 vote -

Save a copy not accessible to call via SDK/Scripts.
I'm not a developer, just an ardent fan of the work that the guys at AstuteGraphics do to improve the functionality of Illustrator.
One of their products they introduced before Illustrator had recovery capabilities was a plugin called Autosaviour. It's a tool that can not only regularly save your files at a given interval but also create backup copies of them too.
I recently asked the team if it was possible to adjust the way backups get created by utilising the 'Save a copy' function so that the original file could remain intact whilst in the background periodic backups could…

For all Adobe apps, make a Save icon at the top.
Make a Save icon at the top so that we could save our work often and quickly with a mouse click instead of interrupting the work flow to do a File Save or even Ctrl - S.

I give up
I give up. No matter how many tests I run or how many people I get involved to work with cloud documents and collaborate with them never seems to work.

Warning when a file uses PostScript Type 1 fonts
Illustrator should put up a warning when a file is opened that contains Type 1 fonts, so the user is aware of that.
- Link the warning to the EOL announcement, to Find/Replace resp. Adobe Fonts
- User should be able to disable the warning
- The warning should not pop up when there is no Type 1 font used in the file
- Maybe this could be scriptable, so people can include it in large scale file checks1 vote -
Multiple recover file management
AI feature that allows to save multiple recover files separately.
(The user decides how many copies of recovery to have, could be a single one or many).
for example, in case I want three copies of recovery that saves separately every X minutes.
recover1 saves every 30 minutes
recover2 saves every 10 minutes
recover3 saves every 2 minutes
This would help to recover previous versions of the same file.Additonally an option to save backups:
Save a copy every X minutes.
For example: Save a copy every 60 minutes.
This is not a recovery file, but a copy that is…1 vote -
Each item in the document to have its own persistent history
Linear document history seems very dated considering how much ram computers have these days, a hierarchical multi-dimensional object oriented history seems like a good idea. It would be amazing if I could choose to access the history of each item in the layers panel. it might work similar to file versioning solutions like GIT.
This history could be optionally saved into the file or cloud library so it can be accessed across sessions.

protect against accidental micro-adjustments during object selection
There are many times, most often while I am either double clicking to get into isolation mode, or selecting a layer as I am moving the mouse, where I accidentally move the object I clicked on a tiny bit, this becomes a problem on some pieces of artwork where math and/or high level accuracy are involved, and the adjustments are so minimal that they aren't noticed until its too late to undo.
It would be really cool if illustrator somehow detected or prevented against accidental unwanted adjustments. the idea occurred to me after seeing my phone attempt to block accidental…

Mascara de opacidad
Cuando se pone una mascara de transparencia con un grandiente no previsualiza como quedaria el objeto trasnparente.. En versiones anteriores esto funcionaba sin problemas.

Let us toggle rendering by artboard
Everything is sooooooo slow! I know there are a million "tips" on how to speed it up but even with a high-end desktop, complex artwork on multiple boards kills illustrator.
