  1. Real brush tool, not “Blob” tool — draw single and editable line

    I don’t want an outline of my line. I want a line. And changeable strokes and brushes.. And a real pen tool. Call me crazy but it’s kind of hard to ILLUSTRATE without the proper tools.

  6. Spiral Tool Preview Checkbox

    Outside of using the default values for the Spiral tool, it's always been difficult to get real precision with respect to altering the decay while dragging and holding CMD / CNTRL. It would be super flexible if the tool had a Preview check box. Turning it on would generate a wireframe of the shape with the default values. Then we could try different settings to get the shape we want and then click Ok to produce the shape.

  10. Pen line options

    It appears that the blob brush for Illustrator on the iPad has different stroke options (chisel, flat, round, etc.), whereas the pen tool only has a uniform line option at this time.
    Please add the different pen stroke types for the iPad! It was such a useful tool and allowed for great line variation!

  11. Support for keyboards

    If you had the ability to utilize an attached keyboard on the iPad it would enable there to be a cohesion in learning shortcuts and there would be less of a learning curve between the two versions of the software, as well as enhancing the iPad software itself.

  16. Save artwork from ‘Home’ screen to a folder in ‘Your Work’ folder

    I would like to see a feature where one can save an item directly from the ‘Home’ screen to a designated folder in ‘Your Work’ folder, preferably via the file drop-down menu where ‘Rename’; ‘Duplicate’; ‘Make available offline’; Delete’; View version history’ are located. Maybe as ‘Save as’ or ‘Move to’ where one is able to save items in a different location/folder for better organisation of one’s work.

  18. Poor pencil performance.

    Drawing with the pencil chugs, it's not smooth and lag free like Affinity Designer.

  20. Option for pattern fill

    On the desktop, I can put patterns instead of solid colors. It would be very useful when drawing illustrations.
