1. Disable all "Generative AI" marketing popups

   Whenever I use Illustrator lately, I'll be in the middle of editing a document when this annoying feature popup appears. Literally right in the middle of me trying to get work done.

   Please give me a way to disable this altogether. I have no interest in this feature. Please stop pushing it to me.

2. 【寸法ツール】オプション設定内への要望

   Illustratorで簡易図面を描く事が多い為、Beta版で追加された「寸法ツール」はとても便利な機能となるはずなのですが、現状では重要な機能が足りておらず図面という用途では使用できません。

   【要望1】「先端位置」の選択が寸法ツールオプション内で出来るようにして下さい。

   現状では矢印のスタイルで「●（矢印21）」などを使用した際に、寸法補助線に対して線の芯に「●」の中心が配置されず、2本の寸法補助線の内側に収まる形で表示されてしまいます。

   【要望2】単位選択時に、「単位自体は表示させない」というチェック項目を付けてください。

   通常長さの寸法を入れる図面では、1つ1つの寸法線に単位は記載しません。数字だけを記載します。
   単位（㎜を使用するのかcmを使用するのかpxを使用するのか等）はアートボード全体で統一する為、1つ1つの寸法線に記載せず、1つのアートボードに対して「寸法の単位は㎜です」等を1カ所に記載する場合の方が多いです。
   ※ただし、直径（φ）・半径（R）・角度（°）の記号に関しては常時表示が必要です。

   【要望3】寸法線に対する数字の位置改善を希望します。

   寸法線の数字は縦線に対して線の左横、横線に対して線の上に配置されるのが望ましいです。改善、または選択可能にしてください。

   以上3点の機能改善を期待しています。

   As per the comment inside, an ability to hide units for dimension objects is introduced in AI Beta build 28.3.0.47.

   No more news so far on other parts of the request.

   Speaking of which — if possible, please try to report/request one entry per post, to better track all the feedback. Thanks you for your participation.

3. Clear / Delete recent from Recent files and File > New

   As you know, Illustrator keeps exported images in the File > Open Recent Files list.
   So if I export 20 TIFs from a single document — they will all will be listed there.

   This is dumb, and there are multiple requests to stop this:
   https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests?query=recent%20files

   There are also requests to be able to clear that list (guess why there is a need for this).

   But we should also be able to remove positions from the list one by one.
   Use cases:
   1. I renamed a file and now I can’t open it via this menu
   2. I moved the file and now I can’t open it via this menu
   3. I have files with long names that Ai truncates and I know I will need only the third, for example, and want to delete others so they do not eat up space and confuse me in the future

   This also should apply to File > New modern dialog.

4. Performance of overprint preview mode and GPU preview mode

   Hi Team,

   Im form a print and packaging industry.

   1. we frequent work in overprint preview mode but when we switch to overprint preview mode we feel death slowness in the illustrator performance and also checking for the seperation preview is also very slow.

   it take minimum of 3 to 8 second to zoom in the artwork

   1. some time in GPU preview mode we see a red strip above the rulers

   Please have a look at the snap shot for our system specifications

   and I use Illustrator V23.0.1

6. Keyboard shortcuts for Bold and Italic text

   It would be useful if, while typing/editing text, there was a keyboard shortcut to add BOLD or ITALICS - highlight the word, hit CTRL + B to bold, for example.

   Happy to share that you can now format your text using the following keyboard shortcuts :

   Shift + Ctrl (Win) / Cmd (Mac) + B (Bold) / I (Italic) / U (Underline)

   You can also customise these shortcuts from the keyboard settings

7. GET RID OF THE REVERT HOTKEY!

   The hot key for Revert is WAY too similar to the hot key for Save As in Photoshop and I lost an entire day fo work saving after finishing a project. The fact that that can happen accidentally, even with the approval button is INFURIATING!

8. Make Pathfinder work with groups properly

   Allow for the Pathfinder to operate on groups of objects as if the group were one object. Possibly its own pathfinder function.

   If I am working with a group it is understood that I want to work with those items as one object. However, when using the pathfinder to minus front, and the object below is part of a group it just deletes the entire group along with the portion of the top object that I wanted to get rid of. When would that be useful? This will also be posted as a bug, because that is how I view this.

11. Allow users to set direction for X and Y axes

    Several versions ago Adobe decided to flip Y-axis, so origin now is placed TOP-left instead of BOTTOM-left, as it was before.
    They say it was done for compatibility with Photoshop and InDesign, which both have y-axis going down.

    I think that breaking people's workflow, deciding only ONE direction is right, was wrong.

    InDesign is a publishing software, it works with a flow. I don't know anybody who reads from bottom to up (RTL — yes). When you move an object there, you don't move it up, you move it backwards

    Photoshop is raster graphics editor, it works with a readable grid of pixels, which are written from top left (we see it every time when images load slow in browsers). Using Photoshop since version 5 I never experienced any trouble with axis going down, because it just never mattered! I retouch photos mostly. People, who uses it for drawing web-design (!) are still OK, because web pages go down. Anyway, PS even hasn't precise move dialogue controls.
    And of course, the fact y-axises go one direction, is just a coincidence (when there is only two variants for y-axis to go — it's highly occasional) — because these two programs care for different fields.

    But Illustrator is about vectors.
    Y-axis goes up in Cartesian coordinate system.
    We move objects up meaning up here.
    It was a consistency for the sake of consistency.
    It was convenient for devs and not end users.
    It was a mistake to do.
    Adobe should have asked users to vote about denying common sense.
    And Adobe should never ever ever had not given users ability to flip it.

    In fact, there IS a way to make y-axis to go down, as it was before: you have to manually set flags in prefs file:
    /isRulerIn4thQuad 0
    /isRulerOriginTopLeft 0

    BUT it causes Move dialogue to be broken (I also have this bug reported). And since there is such an ability and I can flip it in Prefs file — I will fight for an ability to work fully (the worse thing Adobe can do now — is to kill this opportunity).

    I don't ask for ruler origin to be changed to bottom left by DEFAULT, NO, Adobe already had given us an opportunity to change this by editing flags! The ideal outcome would be just a switch in Preferences within AI (and a bugfix for Move dialogue that is set upon existing and approved behaviour).

    I know quite a lot of highly valuable people from Adobe forums who still votes for y-axis go up:
    CarlosCanto (he even wrote a script to undo your unexpected making, https://forums.adobe.com/message/3859338)
    JETalmage (you should have seen this post back in 2009! https://forums.adobe.com/thread/497089)
    Jacob Bugge and all other people who agree with them in comments.

    Nobody among my colleagues I know personally likes this. And only two of them having spoken about it at forums. Imagine how many just cry silently.

    Xara allows to flip axes.
    Canvas allows to.
    Inkscape seems to be able too.
    Affinity can't, but YET.

    Please.

12. You cannot add a Freeform Gradient to the Swatches Panel

    FREEFORM GRADIENT, the new feature in Ai CC 2019. You can create amazing gradients, however, you cannot save any free form gradient created to the Swatches panel or the Cloud Library... why?

    Its a great feature, however, it makes for so much extra work if you want to use any free form gradient you create in one file, in another file or project in the future... it would be logical to be able to save this new style of creating gradients to the CC Library and to one's Swatches Panel.

14. Live Corners should be more live

    It's too easy to "break" a live corner in Illustrator.

    Compare how resilient a live corner is in Sketch versus in Illustrator. In Sketch, the original anchor point is available for manipulation no matter the corner rounding value.

    In Illustrator, translating a rounded corner in any way is highly likely to expand it to a raw bezier curve.

    Thus in Illustrator, if you want to edit your path at all, the best practice is actually to reduce all corner rounds to zero before making any edits. Then edit the path, and then restore the rounding values. To accomplish this, I end up annotating my own corners so I remember what values to put back in the corner field.

    This is a very tedious way to work. Illustrator team, this is probably my number one complaint about Illustrator right now.

17. Find Font window panel - expandable/resizable and searchable

    Please simply allow the Find Font window panel to be expandable/resizable. Difficult to tell between the different weights on long font names such as:
    Helvetica Neue LT Extended Heavy
    vs
    Helvetica Neue LT Extended Black

    The panel needs more horizontal space or even a tooltip to pop-out the full font name.

    Works as requested starting from the version 27.3

19. For complex artboard setups: Artboard groups, folders, labels, hide/show toggles and other enhancements to the Artboards window

    Currently the Artboards window lists all artboards in a single numbered list. The only customization available for the list is the ability to renumber the artboards. A helpful enhancement to consider: Add the ability to organize artboards list into nested groups and folders. For more complex situations, features like color coding with custom labels, and tags and filters could be helpful. To help de-clutter complex overlapping artboards, it would be helpful to be able to toggle the view on and off for artboards similar to how layers can be shown or hidden.
