1. It would be helpful if you made allowable suggestions, such as, " paint in clipping paths not allowed, convert to paint group now."<

   If you're not going to make your paint feature natural or useful, then you could provide allowable suggestions. Suggestions such as, " Paint in clipping paths not allowed, convert to paint group now," then you would click yes or no to convert. Instead, you have created an information loop Where your customers have a problem, you acknowledge the problem, and send your customers on their way to find their own solutions to solve that problem. A problem you have created in the first place. This would be a very helpful feature for you to add.

2. Add an option to create a preset for layers

   It would be very helpful if there's an option to create a layers preset where I can customize the names, colors, & etc of the layers & sublayers and save it as a preset for when I needed it.

3. Simplifying Object Size Adjustments

   Please make it easier (again) to change the size of objects. I'm not sure whether it's a bug in the new version or a new "feature," but it would be much easier if I could just click on an object and then click and pull on the edge to change its height or width.

   I mean, yes, it's possible to use the direct selection tool and select the corners to change it, but as soon as this object (for example, a square) is slightly rotated, it's hard to keep the object straight while changing its "height" (it's not really the height anymore if the object is rotated, but I don't know how else to describe it).

   It's a pretty standard function every program has it, I believe even Photoshop does. Would be very cool if it could become easier

4. New Tool Idea: "Drag Draw"

   I've developed a novel way of drawing vector shapes using a delayed "drag point" method which at first seems counter-intuitive, but is actually closer to the way people draw with pens and brushes, because the drawing point is distanced from the moving point by a controlled amount (as if drawing with a chain), smoothing out the resulting line. My working demo was built in Javascript and can be observed in the attached video, but would be much more powerful within Illustrator and Photoshop. The tool I created allows me to export SVGs and gives me the ability to create smooth organic shapes quickly. The tool also has a few "organic closure" options that finish off the closure of a shape smoothly or with a point, but various other programs are already capable of that.

   I'm discussing the licensing of this with Astute Graphics currently (I think it fits well into their suite of vector tools), but no agreement has been worked out yet. I didn't bother to patent this (if it's even patent-able) so I'm probably making a mistake by posting here where anyone can just steal the idea, but there it is. I'd be interested in knowing what artists think of this approach/style and whether it would be desirable within Illustrator as a new drawing tool. Your thoughts?

6. Keeping my tool preference

   Since Adobe's CC platform, I actually dread major updates because they seem to wipe my user preferences forgetting all my shortcuts and forcing me behavioural changes each and single updates.

   The latest was the disappearance of Illustrator knife tool from my tool set. Little did I know that the knife tool is under advanced tool section, and that I needed to switch to my tool to advanced mode in order to use the knife tool. There may have been other nifty Adobe ways to access it, but I just simply don't have time to relearn all that stuff.

   Adobe, let's imagine this in our analogue world,
   I as a practicing artist / tenant often fighting and trying to meet client deadlines, one day walk into my studio and notice all my setup (brushes, canvas, paints etc arrangements) had been rearranged by you, the studio landlord. You broke into my studio and did all that like some heartless landlords might do these days even though I pay my rent in full and on time each month. Perhaps because you fancied your studio building renovation so you can jack up the rent for new comers.

   I hope you can understand how annoying this is to me? The least you can do is to leave my stuff alone and keep my user preference in tact. To be honest I think you are asking for users' behavioural changes way too often with your products.

8. Exchange entire Illustrator Team!

   Two decades of leading customers around with this (still) child [Illustrator] is enough. Just lay down your work dear current Illustrator Team! You won't get anywhere, and let new people start over. It is 20 Years now since I've started with Illustrator (post Macromedia (RIP) Freehand) and it still sucks so hard. Unbelievable that Shantanu Narayen (Adobe CEO) does not seeing this. Wasted companies money and nerves of millions of users. Get a life.

9. Align By and Align To separate per object aligned

   Current alignment in Illustrator is barely sufficient. I should be able to align any object or path by any point to any object or path by any point.

   Perhaps if you created an alignment tool that allows us to select not only the alignment objects, but the points for each object to align by then your alignment methods would be so much more robust.

   Using the align tool would create a list of alignment participants on a slide-out panel. When selecting an element to align, you would pick from one of the 9 reference points or click anywhere on the object to create a custom alignpoint. Then when you were done selecting elements, you would pick the alignment method (align Horizontal) and all of those elements would be aligned by the point you selected. What's more is that you could save this "alignment strategy" to realign those elements by those reference points later using a simple action. Hit me up for more details on this if you are interested.

   Think of an alignment point as the alignment equivalent of a transform point with 9 positions.

10. Always Scale Proportionally when Shift Constraint is held using the Scale tool

    Holding SHIFT to constrain scaling proportionally should always constrain as long as shift is held.

    Using the Scale tool (s) if you hold shift and scale, you need to stay close to a 45 degree path when dragging in order to keep the proportions locked. Illustrator EASILY unlocks the proportionate scaling when the users deviates a small amount from 45 degrees. It's very easy to do as a user and the amounts can be small depending on the degree the user moves. So it's very very easy to accidentally scale something to almost proportional size such as w:100% h: 92% while the SHIFT key is being held.
    I wish holding SHIFT would simple lock proportions regardless of the angle I choose to drag. If I wanted freeform then I should be able to release SHIFT or not use at all.

11. Images with the file name underneath.

    Would be great if you could place images on to an artboard and have the option to display the files name underneath the image.
    This would be great when designing images for Etsy showing the customer the choice of images they can choose and then tell you the file name of their chosen image.

13. Menu View - New View - Rotate View

    Hi,

    If the option of rotating Artboard is too difficult in Illustrator, maybe it is easier to create "rotated views"?

    When working with packaging, the inability to rotate the view of the packaging walls while working in one document is really a prehistory of creative work. In a professional program, this must be resolved by the Adobe Customer Support Team.

    Thank you everyone for the current effort.
    Best Regards

14. Industrial feedback

    My customers REQUIRE all our reruns of our labels to be the same. The color, the fonts, everything. Continuous reissuing of new versions of Illustrator makes this very time consuming and difficult. Most important, often our pressmen (with 50+ years of experience between the two) will not know something has changed until printed.

    An industrial press uses about 12 feet of material before the first label even prints, making this a HUGE material and time waster in a busy print house.

    Either fix your colors once and stop or tell us PRIOR to release of the changes so that we can set our machines. Once it's installed, we are screwed.

15. Illustrator Reader / Viewer program

    I would love to see an Illustrator reader like Acrobat has an editor program and a reader program.

    The acrobat reader has the ability to edit text and fill in forms. It would be great to have a similar reader program for Illustrator that could edit text in a design so that a customer who doesn't have illustrator could still edit just the text if the designer wants to give them this option. It should have the ability to change text whilst keeping the text design (with shadows, colours, font type etc).

18. Alt+drag to duplicate multiple spline knots and segments

    Up until the Illustrator 23.1.1 update, splines with overlapping knots and multiple selected spline segments could be duplicated easily by:

    1) using the "A" select tool to select individual knots or segments of a path,
    2) region-dragging to select several knots,
    3) begin dragging then quickly hold down the ALT key before releasing
    This would duplicate the knot and it's connected and the newly created connected segments. If only segments were selected, then the new segments were created while dragging, <important!> keeping their anchor knots where they originated at either end of the spline. It was a very efficient tool and interaction.

    In an update after 23.1.1, this was changed so that behavior now only works on an individual knot on a single path. The ability to alt+drag a spline segment while maintaining their end-points is completely disabled and will move the entire segment, not just the weights of the spline segment.

    If more than one knot is selected on a path, or multiple paths, the behavior changes so that the entire path becomes selected, duplicates and follows the cursor. It is identical to how the "V" selection tool would duplicate a path using the ALT+Drag method.

    Now there is no way to get the efficiency of duplicating multiple selected knots and/or spline segments by dragging them to a new location. This may be an oversight because the "A" select tool has always been able to maintain sub-path selections during the drag duplicate event and has been the intent of that selection tool for 30+ years. Please up vote to help bring back this functionality!

19. stroke width tool more defined errors with conflicting properties.

    There are several things that do not allow the use of the "stroke width tool", like brushes, or having the stroke non aligned to the center... but right now the tool gives no hint about what is the issue, and why is not working.
    What about giving you a more specific error, and showing the option to dissable this conflicting property. (if you cannot work around the stroke width in this circumstances.)

20. Swatches panel easier cleanup/delete and Recolor Artwork tool

    • Have delete options for swatch library in drop down or drag/drop to trash.

    • Enable delete option in user defined menu to clean up old/saved swatches no longer needed and organize alphabetically or enable us to drag/drop folder within panels for easier regrouping.

    • Also allow swatches folders to drag/drop to other open windows/working open files.

    • Allow us to customize our main Swatch panel without having to delete the AI standard swatches every time (but not delete them either just customize or minimize/hide the preset colors).

    • Recolor tool: enable a way to select a recolor option (or tag multiple options during scrolling) without losing your place or having to restart/re-do the turning on and off of selected colors bars each time. Maybe be able to checkmark image options that it stores in side panel so you're able to go through the whole recolor options without start/stop/reopen/redo etc... then be able to work off your new/saved options. And PLEASE add a go back button to recolor.

    A lot of time is wasted in both issues. It's cluttering up my workspace and not user friendly to clean out my swatches and organize as needed.
    Recolor tool is a great function but slows down in the usage as to have to save a new image, you lose the original and to get back to continuing you have to restart the whole process, especially when choosing to not recolor some colors... having to redo all that is time consuming. Adding a 'back' button will also help all of us who click too fast and skip over a great color option and frustrated to not be able to go back.

    • Also don't freeze the screen when recolor panel opens. Sometimes you need to zoom in to see colors better or movie images around and not being able to have access to moving anything makes one have to start all over, or take extra time making sure your screen is the ideal size/layout before starting recolor. Or make the recolor a large window which puts the image inside the window for easier access to zoom, scroll and interact with image.

    • When you open recolor and use the magnifier to see where each color is located, I can't find a way to get out of that mode, unless I hit the recolor scroll which rearranges my color options. Make it so unclicking pops you back out to where you were wo changing image.

    • When reducing colors in Recolor window (as used in patterns often) it'd be nice for it to update the number of colors live. Currently we have to keep track in our minds, accept and close the window. Reselect image and reopen recolor to know how many colors we are now at. A live updated number would be great or an easier method than having to reselect/reopen just to see the new number. Or perhaps, add a numerical value to the sidebar swatch panel on the side of the recolor window, to show the live change in number of colors during combining/reducing of colors.

    • Have delete options for swatch library in drop down or drag/drop to trash.

    • Enable delete option in user defined menu to clean up old/saved swatches no longer needed and organize alphabetically or enable us to drag/drop folder within panels for easier regrouping.

    • Also allow swatches folders to drag/drop to other open windows/working open files.

    • Allow us to customize our main Swatch panel without having to delete the AI standard swatches every time (but not delete them either just customize or minimize/hide the preset colors).

    • Recolor tool: enable a way to select a recolor option (or tag multiple options… more
