Support video placement for UX design
Being able to import videos and make a design on top of a looping video would be super helpful for all of us product designers that need to see how the movement of the video impact on a design. This can help in websites and apps, and for presentation purposes it would be nice to be able to export the video.
Right now to test a background video on a design you have to export the design and work on a new file inside a video editor.3 votes -
Adobe Draw File Management
I use Adobe Draw every day, and I keep all drawings for one project together in one file. There is no function to change the order that files or folders appear in the app, nor is there a search function, and and so if I am still working on a drawing I created yesterday in a folder that I opened 4 years ago, I have to visually search through hundreds of drawings every time I open the app or move back and forth through different projects.
Pretty please, introduce either a 'sort by last opened' option, and/or a file/folder search function, and/or the capability to drag and drop the folders into the order you want to use them in, so the most frequently accessed one (active projects) can stay at the top.
I mostly use Adobe Draw as a client-facing app for consultations, and it makes the user experience feel disorganized and slow.
Thank you!

Paste svg content from clipboard, not underlying xml content
There are several design tools that can put SVG text on the clipboard including Illustrator. Please support pasting that content from the clipboard as content, not xml text. XD does this correctly, so Illustrator should too.

Search for text on artboard/canvas
I know illustrator has good navigation features. But when designer provide project files to client for example on envato market. First pain for client is to understand document patterns. I want to make help instruction inside illustrator document but search feature is required to navigate to different sections.
For example: 1000+ icon set, search is required for such big documents.

Text thread marker (out port) is too small
The size of the red controller [+] which allows you to create a new threaded text is so small that is almost impossible to click. I think it could be bigger in order to improve the usability. In fact, many of those options can be bigger.

最近使用したものの一覧にファイルパスを表示する Display file path for Recently Used items
最近使用したもの一覧はインターフェースとして便利ですが、同一ファイル名を使用したりするケースでは判別がつかず、ファイル管理上、危険が伴うので、ファイルパスを表示するなど、どこかにユニーク情報を入れてほしい。

Artboard delete tool
This is really nitpicky but the little X at the top right of the artboard tool is too small and more often than not I end up creating a new artboard around the object at the top right of the artboard. Possibly make the cross larger or move it somewhere else to remove this problem?

Save to older version of EPS or AI
CS6 does not appear to allow the user to save to older versions of EPS or AI. Many vendors and designers are still using older versions, and the inability to save to older versions is creating a lot of problems.

It should be possible to do so through File > Save As… then select the Format as .ai or .eps, then click Save. In the next dialog select the desired version from CC to Ai3.

Illustrator - Trace image and turn in to an editable path instead of shapes
I would love to be able to take my drawings and use the live trace feature (or maybe even a feature within the Illustrator app??) that would allow me to trace my hand-drawn sketches (on paper) and turn them into line paths instead of outlined shapes. This way, I don't have to trace my images again, once they are in Illustrator. It would be a huge time saver!
3 votesThere are options for image tracing in AI. Extended panel gives you an ability to select Strokes instead of Fills. Tweaking these can help you with that. Please comment back if you think these should be refined.

Pfadrichtung im Attribute-Panel anzeigen
Ich meine mich daran zu erinnern, dass früher die Pfadrichtung im Attribute-Panel ersichtlich war, wenn man einen Pfad aktiviert hatte. In Version 30.3. für OSX ist das nicht der Fall. Man kann die Pfadrichtung nur über den Workaround mit Pfeilen sehen.

Photoshop効果「シャープ」のメニュー復活とUI改善の要望 Bring Sharpen / Unsharp Mask effect back
以前のバージョンで利用可能だった「シャープ」や「アンシャープマスク」がメニューから消去されている現状は、作業効率を著しく下げています。
リクエスト:
メニューへの直接配置: 画像を鮮明にするのは基本的な操作です。「効果ギャラリー」の奥に隠したり、Photoshopの起動を強制したりせず、Illustratorのメニューから直接選択できるように戻してください。
用語の分かりやすさ: 「アンシャープ」といった内部処理の名称ではなく、ユーザーの目的である「シャープ(鮮明化)」という名称で直感的に使えるUIにしてください。

Group color handles in the Recolor panel’s Edit mode
It would be great if we could select colors in the Edit mode of the Recolor dialog and group them together so they will be linked and move as one.
Right now, they're all linked, and we can unlink a single color from the rest, but there's no way to dynamically group sets of colors. In this example, for instance, it would be nice to group a bunch of them by hue (the reds, the greens, the purples) or by value (the light green & pink as one group, the dark purple, red, and green as another group, etc), or by saturation (the mid and light purple + the light green as the low saturation group, and the rest as the high saturation group). This could also be used to group colors by what part of the image they're being used for (e.g.: a person or a shoe or whatever you're drawing!)It would be great if we could select colors in the Edit mode of the Recolor dialog and group them together so they will be linked and move as one.

Allow no not change the font in Glyphs panel to match the selected text
When I display the Glyphs panel while text is selected, the font attributes of the selected text are applied, causing the font at the bottom of the Glyphs panel to change to the selected font.
For example, if I’m looking at Futura symbols but accidentally click on text set to Helvetica — the symbols displayed switch to Helvetica.
There are times when I want to enter a special character, such as a cherry blossom mark, at the beginning of Futura text. However, when I try to view and enter that character using the Glyphs panel and click on the Futura text, the font changes. Therefore, I would like a checkbox or similar option added so that when I click on the text, I can choose whether to change the Glyphs panel’s display to match the selected text’s font or keep it displaying the font I’m currently viewing.

Percentage relationship between geometric shapes
When we have two or more logos together and they display different shapes (circles, rectangles, squares), it would be helpful to establish a relationship between them based on their percentages. How much should I enlarge or reduce a circle so that, proportionally, it has the same visual weight as a rectangle?

Multi-letter Shortcut Combinations
I would like to see an option to create multi-letter shortcut combinations for every tool, menu item, action in Illustration.
E.g. rather than just CMD/****/OPT+ a letter (e.g. CMD+S, OPT+CMD+A, etc.) have the option to hit three letters in succession e.g. CMD+ELL (ellipse), CMD+KER (kerning), CMD+RML (Paste Remembers Layers on/off).
This would increase the number of possible shortcuts by a factor of ~2200x
