Replace file with same name!
Exporting png or other format, save with exact name, select "replace file", does not replace file but makes NEW file with "artboard" or other additional text. PLEASE when we select "replace", REPLACE the same file with the same name. Have to manually rename over 20 files. We have files that are linked in Indesign and this causes lots of extra time and effort every time there is an edit. Clients have to pay more for extra time, something that should be simple causes a large ripple effect when every other application renames replacement files correctly. PLEASE FIX THIS.

Free Distort Zoom
You guys should allow Free Distort to be zoomed-up on in the Free Distort window. It'd be nice to be able to zoom up real close into that window like one can on an artboard.

Recolor Artwork Tool - Separate Colors by Groups
I'd love to be able to pull up the recolor artwork tool and separate all of the colors by grouped objects.
I want to pull the color scheme from one grouped set of shapes into another, but hate having to sort out which ones belong to each, especially when they are similar shades. (example: pulling the colors from a pineapple into an orange, and be able to sort by the colors in each fruit's grouped paths)

Problem with Adobe Illustrator pressure on a Surface pro 7
I recently purchased a Surface Pro 7. I am a graphic designer and an artist and I've always worked on Illustrator but after installing it to my Surface Pro the experience is ruined for me.
I cannot get a sharp line even if my life depended on it.
Basically the lines inside the box are the lines I'm getting, the single line outside of the box is what I should be getting but I'm not. It's like the pressure works but not on the low end as I can't make a line sharp, it always ends up like this.

Ability to create a new document
I want to create a new document and not one from a template. Please add "Create New Blank Document".
I use this for mobile games and don't think it's fair I have to revert back to Legacy to just create a quick ai file to edit and go.
1 voteThere are several solution on how to create a new document faster. Please refer to the comment inside.

I want the behavior to be the same
For Japanese version of Illustrator, I want Indesign to have the same selection range when adjusting the line spacing.
I sometimes get confused because each behaves differently in the same selection.

Some type of notification when a linked CC library asset has changed...
I'd like some type of notification when a CC library asset changes so I can choose to keep the current version (essentially un-linking it) or update to the latest version. This notification should happen when opening documents as well as while they are open. It does not have to be a modal dialog, it could also just be that the asset gets an icon or is highlighted somehow - but something noticeable. Better would be the ability to specify whether I want it to update art automatically, notify me that an updated asset is available by highlighting somehow, or notify…

Image skew potential
Image skew option like photoshop. Here we have to make envelope distort.
1 voteThe intended way to do this in Illustrator is to use a dedicated Shear Tool (nested in the Scale tool group in the tool panel) or a Free Transform tool.

Is there a reason why when setting the size of the Eraser the slide goes down to 0? Would be quicker to adjust if it would stop at 1.

Turn off "Could not complete the requested operation. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing"
I routinely work with large art files, and while I would love the drawing area to be unlimited, it seems like that's never going to happen.
In the meantime, please add an option to turn off the warning message; "Could not complete the requested operation. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area". I know when I use the transform tool and I've previously moved an object a great distance across the drawing area that I can't repeat that operation. I don't need to be reminded of that constantly. The behavior of this dialog box…

Changed color rounding
Since the update to Illustrator 24.1 the way color decimals are rounded has changed. So we can't update anymore.
We have lots of documents coming from RGB and must be translated into CMYK. After that we use a huge action to transform these colors. Because of the problem descriped before we have to stay on an old illustrator version to be able our workflow is running correctly.
We hoped that a newer version will solve the problem someday but nothing happend. Do we have to investigate days of work to update our workflow?

When Relinking to a CC Library Graphic, CTA Unclear
When relinking to a CC Library graphic, the buttons say "Cancel" and "Relink" but the current design/layout makes it read "Cancel Relink" unless hovered over—an easy fix; just space the buttons out.

Default overprint black text is missing in AI 2020 v24.2.3.
Several generations earlier this feature was the default. Although type is filled black by default, it is NOW not set to overprint. I have to select all the black type and manually open Attributes panel and select "overprint fill." This is counterproductive.

Opening Fresco files from the cloud with Illustrator
Hello, it's really great that Illustrator can now open files from the cloud. But unfortunately not the sketches from Fresco. You still have to export them first and then you can open them in Illustrator. It would be great if you could change that, i.e. open PSDC files from the cloud in Illustrator. Thanks a lot

1 voteHi,
You are now able to send Fresco files to Illustrator on the desktop with the latest version of Fresco and Illustrator. You can also place embed Fresco files in Illustrator. Please give it a try. In the future, we will also add smoother options to copy paste objects on both the Illustrator surfaces – desktop and iOS.
Thanks,

2D physics engine
Nothing too complex. Just an engine allowing user to apply rigid body and collider body to shapes and symbols. A timeline to play the effect, then we can bake a state into a frozen frame. Along the lines of Newton in After effects.

When the Preference 'Object Selection By Path Only' is active, symbols can't be grabbed at the control points of the symbol's bounding box.

Allow pattern scale and position to be locked to objects...
I know that there is a setting when moving and scaling to apply the translations to patterns or not - but I'd like to be able to define that setting on an object-by-object basis.
