Re-draw line in the pencil tool, like in desktop In the desktop when you draw with the pencil over existing line it allow you to re-draw fro. That section on. I was really surprised this ability isn’t available in the first version- seems like a must for the iPad, and a big differentiator from procreate and raster tools

'remember last stroke' and 'new art has basic appearance' Adobe you really should and need to bring some of the finer settings across from the desktop if you are serious about these being PRODUCTIVE tools and not just permanent pre-release beta tests rented under the subscription narrative.
No-one wants to move BACKWARDS either feature OR PRODUCTIVE-wise.
Desktop Illustrator has a SIMPLE setting to either REMEMBER the last selected stroke setting OR allows for 'new art has basic appearance' which could easily be implemented on the ipad version with a check-box in a preference setting.
Without this simple setting my productivity is completely broken and now far more convoluted requiring…

Selection marquee should be able to be displayed orthogonally when a view is rotated When dragging out a selection marquee on a rotated canvas with either of the Selection tools, the marquee is drawn aligned to the canvas instead of the screen.
The actual selection seems to be done in screen space - see the two attached screenshots, where my marquee was dragged from the lower left point of the marquee to the upper right, resulting in a displayed marquee that would select the sketch of hair above the eye, and an actual selection that only contains parts of the paths in the eye.
The expected behavior would be that the marquee was drawn…

AI形式のファイルを古いCSバージョンでエクスポートしたい AI形式での書き出し時に、CSのバージョンを選択できるようにしてほしいです。
CS3以前のバージョンしか互換性がないソフトを使う必要があり、PC版と同じようにバージョンを落としてファイル作成できると、とても助かります。2 votes -

Drag and Drop Artboard Copy In desktop, I can Alt and Drag a copy of an Artboard. Currently, it seems in iPad I can only use the Duplicate button. This gets annoying. I want to be able to drag a copy of an Artboard to whatever location I want. Auto placement is nice, but it creates more steps in the workflow. I.e. Duplicate - Locate - Move. Whereas if I could drag a copy of an Artboard, I can move it up, down, left, right, diagonal, I always know where it is, and once it’s placed I don’t have to do anything else.

Deselect on iPad I looked around and didn't find a shortcut/gesture to deselect anything, especially after using the pencil tool, In the pencil tool on the desktop version, there is an option to choose whether you want to keep last drawn line selected, or to keep it unselected.

Morph iPad Cursor We need the cursor on iPad to morph into a more fine shape in some instances, like over anchor points, curve points, and even transform boxes. It’s currently difficult to precisely manipulate some objects with the oversized circle cursor. This would improve trackpad or mouse input greatly.

Transparent Background You need an option for a transparent background. This is essential to my work.

Ability to Open Multiple Documents to Copy & Paste Between Them I have various assets I've created and I often want to copy part of one over to something new I'm creating, and yet I can't open multiple documents to be able to copy and paste between them. For example, I want to use a portion of a graphic in another new graphic I'm creating, and I want to open the existing one, ungroup the items, select the part I want and copy and paste it over into the new document. I can paste the original item, but it pulls in grouped together as one image so I can't grab just…

Long press delay to delete point is too short When using the direct selection or pen tool to move points the point is deleted too soon if the apple pencil is used to select it. Long press is supposed to delete the point but this happens if you hold the pencil on the point for a very short time. Please add a longer delay or even better allow the user to set the delay in preferences.

Apply brushes to strokes We should be able to apply brushes to strokes of all kinds. The added brush tool is useless without this feature.

Merging artboards on same file Being able to take an artboard from one file and moving it to another or making it easier to see two files side by side on iPad and also be able to edit between the two. In my class I have to take a lot of stuff from past work for future work so making it easier to transform vectors by duplicating multiple artboards from different files into their own file would be beneficial. Along with better file arrangement and organization.
