1. Preview of the Artboard Sizing

   If we could see what the sizing of the artboard would look like before we click the create button, because sometimes it's just easier to test there before starting an entire new document! :)

2. Calculate surface area with Dimension tool

   With the last update, you brought the possibility of customizing the scale in the dimension tools, thank you for that. Would it be possible to obtain a new tool for calculating the surface area in m², by selecting any closed shape?

   The team has started working on this request. As a first step they want to understand the requirements correctly and build the right feature set based on the feedback gathered.

3. Allow to set up Viewing options for PDF exported, like InDesign does

   Do you think we could have Viewing options added as implemented in InDesign?

4. Menu and Tool UI text, sliders, buttons and fields should be easier to click. larger clickable area around each tool options.

   The clickable area of many UI elements are smaller than they appear making the process tedious an needlessly taxing.

   In my pic my cursor is clearly inside the opacity field but I cannot yet activate it. As it is currently design, I need to be unnecessarily precise. Makes no sense.

   The entire UI could stay the same size but clickable areas should become larger.
   Text based buttons like opacity should be treaded like buttons with a large clickable area (opacity in a box with ample padding).

   There would only be improvements to the UX, no downsides.
   If anyone has suggestions on how to better articulate or title, I'm open.

5. Actual Status Bar instead of Spinning Beach Ball

   When working with larger images or complex art I can imagine that Illustrator or macOS need caching or need to write temp files somewhere.

   I work in the sign business so we work with very large images frequently, for car wraps or large wall art for instance.

   Often the infamous Spinning Beach Ball appears when moving or copying fairly large images. This can take several minutes.

   It would be nice to have an actual status bar instead of the Spinng Beach Ball so that we can see what Illustrator is actually doing and how long it would take to finish its tasks.

   In the enclosed screen recording the cursor is a Spinning Beach Ball — this doesn't show however and I don't know how to record it.

   The length of this screen recording (about a minute) is representative of how long this process takes; often it takes longer to waait until it is finished.

   There's no clue of what Illustrator actually is doing. I just have to wait until it is ready so I can continue working, until the Spinnng Beach Ball starts again.

   As a sidenote, we don't see the spinning macOS beach ball when doing some light work. Mostly, it happens when working with large images — I understand that Illustrator is not a dedicated image editor.

7. Add metric units in 3D

   When generating 3D, even if 2D path could be very precise in dimension, the 3D volume is most often expressed in proportion (from 0 to 100%)

   When you try to export for 3D printing it could be more usable to be able to express in metric units...
   Like it has been done in Photoshop some times (years) ago ;-)

8. Add Enclosed mode for Lasso tool (for full objects)

   建议增强或调整“E选择模式”。
   目前的“E选择模式”非常棒，但是当选择复杂背景上的对象时存在不足。
   选择工具（V）：“E选择模式”是在拖动后触发，拖动就会移动点击对象，可以考虑调整为鼠标按下时，按下“E键”进入选择模式（不选择点击对象，只选择选框内的对象），原因是选择工具无法在非锁定的对象上拖动选择（锁定复杂背景也不是一件容易的事情），只能把选择工具移动到背景外再拖动选择，这会增加选择范围，有时候会把不需要选择的对象选中；
   另外，可以考虑套索工具增加“E选择模式”，因为套索工具可以在任意对象上拖动选择。

10. Callout Tool

11. Copy and paste formatting to text

    Please add a very important abbreviation
    It is paste formatting
    (And copy the same text)
    I suggest its shortcut is ctrl + shift + V
    and
    ctrl + shift + C copy shortcut
    As in MS Word
    It's an important shortcut and makes it much easier at work. Please let me know when it's activated

12. Can we have nicer gradient when we use spot color to gradient?

    Look like the tone was mixed with desaturated tone at the middle part when we use pantone / spot colour we created.
    When we output to print, the desaturated tone is still visible.
    Attached the screenshot for your reference. Thank you!

14. Locked Object as Key Object

    It would be very helpful to have the option to enable a locked object to be selected as a key object. I would make aligning object workflows to be slightly more efficient.

15. Rename Unembed to Unembed All when several images are selected

    A command in the Links panel’s flyout menu allows us to Unembed an image, when it’s selected.
    It’d be great if the name of the command change into 'Unembed All...' when several embedded images are selected.

16. Non-Destructive Path Trim

    It would save me incredible amounts of time if I could simply--and non-destructively--trim a path.

    Example:
    I create a character's arm using a tapered stroke. I then duplicate that tapered stroke so that it can function as a shirt sleeve.
    <Here is where the issue comes in...>
    There's not a good way to trim that duplicated stroke to function as a sleeve. I can add points and delete the stroke, but the width won't match anymore. I can create a clipping mask, but it's a pain and makes adjusting the characters pose needlessly laborious.

    Being able to trim the path would make something like this MUCH less painful as there are fewer layers and points you need to mess with.

    Second example:
    I want the upper arm behind the character and the forearm in front. A trim paths would make this easy. You'd just duplicate the stroke, place one below the body and one above the body. Then you'd trim each to meet at the elbow.

    I hope that makes sense. If not, I can elaborate. Sometimes it's difficult for me to put words into a coherent sentence. :p

17. An ability to create custom bevel profiles for 3D and Materials Extrude

    We can create our own profiles for now Classic Extrude, by modifying the Bevels.ai — located here:
    Mac: /Applications/Adobe Illustrator [version]/Support Files/Resources/[locale]
    Win: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator [version]\Support Files\Required\Resources[locale]

    But changing the file does nothing to customize bevels for the modern 3D!
    They seem to be hardcoded.
    Please, make the same file to be recognized by the modern 3D, or perhaps come up with some better way, that does not require to modify a red-only file and restarting Ai — for both 3D methods.

20. Multilingual Spell check needed for multilingual package design.

    I am a package designer. Our company fully committed away from English only packaging to "3L," using English, French and Spanish. Sometimes, we do 8L for emerging markets. When we review our packaging, and before film release, we use Spell Check in our routine. However, it is cumbersome to find English misspellings, when Spell Check spends so much time identifying French and Spanish as misspelled English words. Plus, it would be nice to catch a misspelled French or Spanish word, just in case our translation service team made a mistake. We'd not know because we are not native speakers. With all the AI language models out there, and Adobe use of AI, is there not a smart way to make Spell Check more robust and help us less likely to make a spelling mistake? Currently, it kind of defeats the point of what Spell Check is intended to be. It is not currently helpful in that regard.
