1. Accessibility of tutorial videos, for users with hearing impairment

   I am a new creative cloud user and need to use Illustrator as part of my university course so wanted to access the learn ‘how to’ tutorials, but found the video tutorials for Illustrator does not have ‘closed captions’ nor printable version of the text. I checked some of the other Adobe programs within creative cloud and they are the same, so I contacted Adobe online chat who sent me on to an online dedicated adviser. I was then told no accessibility options available for the tutorial videos.

   Please could you pass my feedback to Adobe….

   Accessibility on the learn 'how to' video tutorials for all Adobe software and features, including Illustrator is very important to enable all users to access and be able to use features efficiently and quickly.

   As a creative cloud software user who has a hearing impairment, it would be helpful to have printable text of tutorial videos so they can be read alongside the tutorials or have closed captions, because I can’t hear what is being said,

   It is a real shame these are not fully accessible, as it has rendered all the tutorial videos useless for those with hearing impairments.

   Please can this be added as a feature on all tutorial videos across creative cloud.

   Otherwise, the adobe software looks impressive, it will just take me a lot longer to understand how to use each Adobe software item, and each part of each one.

2. Set exact dimensions to one object in a group that affects the entire group.

   Example: I have 3 squares. 2 large ones and one small one overlapping the two. (see picture)
   The task is to set the small red square to exactly 140 x 140 mm without losing the proportions in size or position to the blue or green box.
   
   I want an exact scale up where the end result is that the red square is 140 mm x 140 mm.
   I can use rulers, but the small square doesn't snap since it isn't touching the bounding box. Using this I can eyeball it and get a result like 140.062 x 140.062 mm. I need it to be 140 x 140 mm flat. And this method takes time, dragging the size back and forth since the middle square isn’t centered.
   Same issue if I were to draw a 140 x 140 mm square and try to match the red one to it. It will snap in one corner of the drawn 140 x 140 mm square guide, but move away from that corner when scaled.
   In this example I can of course calculate the increase to 140% and scale accordingly. Works great for this simple example, but it is much more tedious when I want to scale a text for instance or objects with uneven numbers, where I need a stack height to be e.g. 100 mm tall. Here the text often is something like 14.532 mm to start and I have to calculate 100/14.532 = scale up of 688,1365%. Just takes a lot of time.
   And for items that needs scaling in two directions I need to make two separate calculations (if I wanted the new dimensions of the square to be e.g 140 x 190 mm)
   What I propose is a tool/possibility to use the same technique as when aligning object, combined with the properties tab.
   1. I select all 3 objects using shift or simply dragging the selection box over
   them.
   2. I then click the red box again without holding shift, making it an indicated selection (like when aligning objects)
   3. I open up the properties tab. Either the W x H is then changed to show the dimensions of the red box, or a new input area opens up so both the entire groups outer dimensions is shown as well as the dimensions of the red square.
   4. I proceed to enter my desired values in the input boxes, setting the new dimensions for the red square
   5. The program scales the entire group according to the new set dimensions of the red square.

   Example: I have 3 squares. 2 large ones and one small one overlapping the two. (see picture)
   The task is to set the small red square to exactly 140 x 140 mm without losing the proportions in size or position to the blue or green box.

3. Need Better (and Less-Hidden) Accessibility Tagging Options

   Please make it much easier to add accessible alt-text to InDesign documents. There should be an accessibility panel and pre-check to make it very easy for designers.

   As it is now, it's too hidden: https://www.adobe.com/accessibility/products/indesign/alt-text.html

4. Type in stroke width value instead of pull down menu in Character styles

   In Character Styles the stroke width only provides a pull down menu to choose from. It would be better if we could type in an exact value.
   The stroke width of texts needs to be very precise in my work, but the pull down menu is too limited to provide an accurate enough value. (The gaps between available options in the menu are too big.)

   When I create a new character style by selecting text and adding a new style, the style contains the correct stroke width. But when I need to adjust the width afterwards I can only pick from the pull down menu, and those values differ too much from the original value.

   The normal stroke palette works better - it allows to add a random value and unit.

5. 'Load Paragraph styles' does not work as expected

   In InDesign, if you 'Load Paragraph styles', any Paragraph styles with the same names get updated, and any text that has those paragraph styles applied change appearance.

   In Illustrator, this doesn't happen. It ignores the imported styles as it already has styles of that name. There is no 'import options' to able to change this behaviour.

7. Ai Feels Old and Unintuitive Next to New Adobe Products

   Illustrator feels old. I find myself trying to do more and more vector work in XD or Photoshop simply because Ai feels like something from the 90s. There is very little consistency in how things work in Ai versus the other adobe apps. Swatches from CC are endlessly frustrating. Too many tools appear to do the same thing slightly differently. The app seems to assume everything will eventually be printed.
   I know this is very general, but perhaps a new vector creation tool is needed in the lineup. I've tried Draw and Sketch on the iPad but they also feel lost in the past. What I need is an app that lets me quickly create and manipulate shapes, text, and paths. Ai is just too cumbersome.

8. Image Trace Default black and white preset is grayscale after expanding

   When you Image Trace, using the default black and white tracing preset and expand - the black and white are grayscale. When you double click the fill in the toolbar to choose a new color for the black or white, the resulting color is a shade of gray. Then, you have to go to the Color panel and change the sliders to a different color model to be able to see the color you chose. It would be easier if the black and white were aligned with the document color mode, RGB or CMYK instead. You don't encounter this issue if you apply color from a saved swatch, only when using the color picker.

9. Unify point tangent, angle\length\direction

   Short rationales:
   Point Angle - I need a way to control the exact angle of point handles to unify them across a design. Currently the only way to control the angle is to constrain it to vertical, horizontal, or 45 degree angles.

   Point Handle Length\Direction - If you grab a point handle and make it a different length or direction than the handle on the other side of a point, there is currently no way to re-unify them besides re-drawing the curve.
   There is also no also no way to scale handle length along the direction or angle you’ve already set.

   More information:
   Point Angle - There is currently no way to control the exact rotation of a point, so if for example, I need one point at 29 degrees and another at 82 degrees, there’s no way to specify this. Also, if I have a series of points across a design and I want all of the tangent angles to match, there’s no way to do it. This is especially troublesome when drawing type. Very often you want points at 0 degrees, 90 degrees and then an italic angle across all of the letters. The closest you can currently come to specifying that is creating a series of guidelines, but that can become very cumbersome and they don’t often aline with the exact point coordinates.

   Point Handle Length\Direction - Every single design that I use the pen tool on, I come across a situation where I either uncouple point handle directions, or lengths. If I want to get the perfect angle and direction set on one side and then want to match it on the other, I can’t. I have to use the Anchor Point Tool to redraw the curve, which causes the line to reset. This is also an issue when drawing things like type. If you use, for example, the Direct Selection Tool, and drag a handle out to create a shape, there’s no way to then drag the other handle out on the same line, or to unify it’s corresponding handle’s length.

   Point Angle - I need a way to control the exact angle of point handles to unify them across a design. Currently the only way to control the angle is to constrain it to vertical, horizontal, or 45 degree angles.

11. "Multiple Record Layout" data merge feature.

    I love the "Multiple Record Layout" data merge feature in InDesign. However my merged documents are often opened in Illustrator by the end user to make changes. Currently my client wants a full vector file for laser cutting shapes with custom etched names. They do not translate well with strokes becoming their own object and lines of text disconnecting. The idea to data merge 200+ names in IN makes perfect sense, but in this case the client asked they be done in AI and each name and custom info needs to be brought in by hand manually one name at a time. Will the data merge feature be enhanced to be able to put multiple records on one artboard, and have better formatting features?

12. Remove units from input boxes

    When editing a value in an input box, e.g. the width of an artboard, the unit (px) is still included in the box. This makes it harder to hit the right spot in the text with your mouse, and makes it more prone to error. It's especially annoying when performing arithmetic!

    Trying to avoid this situation: "306 p+34x"

14. Do not change the order of characters in the Glyphs panel

    Problem Description:
    If I've highlighted a character, and choose a different variation of that character in the Glyphs panel, the newly chosen variation moves to the left of the glyphs, changing the order of all the glyphs. This is really annoying. If, instead of the order of the glyphs changing, the blue highlight just moved on to the selected glyph, that would be far less confusing.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Select a character in some text
    2. Open the Glyphs panel to see the variations of that character
    3. Select a different variation

    Actual Result:
    The ordering of the variations of that character changes in the Glyphs panel so the currently chosen variation is on the left

    Expected Result:
    Order should remain, and the blue highlight should move.

15. Feedback on New Snap to Glyph(s) Functionality (Released)

    New Glyph snapping feature is available in Beta now.

    Snap to glyph(s) allows quick and precise alignment around contours of live text without the need of creating outlines or reference guides. You will see smart snapping guides for words and a line by default. You can also enable a single glyph mode by right-clicking on the targeted glyph.

    We have tried to provide as many important smart guides as possible without cluttering the workspace. We would love to hear your candid feedback. Please provide your feedback on this thread. This will be actively monitored by the Illustrator team. If you don't have access to Beta please drop a note to me at: kotwal at Adobe dot com.

    This feature has been released in 24.3. Please update to the latest version to use this feature. We would love to hear your feedback.

16. Shift + click on menu items (File, Edit, Object, etc) w/o closing menu after click

    Whenever I use the menu items (File, Edit, Object, Text, Select, Effects, View, etc) sometimes you go into a submenu, and select one option, e.g:
    1. Go to View Menu
    2. Select Perspective Grid sub-menu
    3. Select Hide guides
    4. Go to View Menu (again)
    5. Select the Perspective Grid sub-menu (again)
    6. Find and click my option (eg. "Snap to guides")

    Now if I could for example "shift+click" to keep the menus open after the click:
    1. Go to View Menu
    2. Select Perspective Grid sub-menu
    3. Shift+click "hide guides"
    4. Click "snap to grid" (without shift when I don't need it open anymore)

    It gets shorter, more efficient, and sometimes menus content is hard to memorize, so having the option to keep it open would make it quicker too.

17. The Ability to Compound by Color

    Take an object or line of text that has been converted to outlines, put an offset path on it, make that new outline a different color than the original object. Now the requested feature would be the ability to drag select the entire object and offset path, then select "Compound By Color" and it will make all colors selected into their own compound path.

19. Add a way for us to scale multiple fonts at the same time.

    For example, I'm working on a document and I have a header, sub-headers, and paragraph text that are all different font sizes. I would like for there to be a way to incrementally, increase all fonts selected, no matter the selection.

    Also, incrementally increasing/decreasing a group of fonts that are selected along with other layers should have no effect on other layers.

    A prime example of where this feature would be useful is if I were designing a report or a table and I want to increase the font size in the header and line items without selecting each layer individually. I build complex reports by hand in illustrator, it allows me to break down information for clients in a way that they can understand, and it's also fun.

20. The ability to save a direct selection

    Sometimes geometric transformations require a complex selection of certain vertices on one or more objects. Losing the selection because of a misclick is so common and frustrating... One should be able to save current selection to recall it if lost. This little buffer can be really very temporary, i.e. stop working if object topology has changed in the meantime. It would already prevent frustration on many occasions.

    Illustrator allows to save, load and managed partial and full  selection with Select > Save / Edit Selection commands.

    UI is archaic, but it does the thing you want.

    As for having a selection operation as an undoable operation — there is a separate feature request for this you can vote for: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/34934953
