  2. Pattern Swatch Export: For when you need to provide the single tile fo certain print processes.

    Perhaps it’s an export option in frequently used toolbar. Or it appears when double tap within the original tile (inside the dotted lines). Also frequently that tile/swatch is a required size for printing. Would be nice to control the tile size precisely.

    Currently many folks will do this manually by creating the single tile on an artboard and then testing it with a pattern tool. If it doesn’t work then they return to file make adjustments and repeat test.

  3. Grid snapping while using the pen tool

    Makes making precise point placement mush easier. At the moment I just roughly draw points and then go back and move them to get them to snap to the grid

  8. Please make a brush stroke a path instead of a fill. So you don’t have to adjust the outlines from a line you just drawn.

    Please make a brush stroke a path instead of a fill. So you don’t have to adjust the outlines from a line you just drawn. Or else this app shouldn’t be called illustrator. Thats the main thing of illustration using adobe illustrator. Apply a look to a line, and then be able to adjust the line instead of a fill which it now creates, not usable at all. It’s also useful for animation purposes to be able to use a path. And the pencil isn’t the same thing as a brush, you want to see the endresult of what you…

  9. Adobe illustrator for iPad Pro Vector Line editing

    The Ipad version off illustrator, really needs a way to edit vector lines after they have been drawn. I mean I don't think it's only me that sees line editing as one of the main reasons why I draw with vectors.

    Ipad should just as Vectornator be able to edit drawn vector lines and to smooth drawn vector lines, otherwise I may just draw with procreate..

    Same thing with adobe fresco vector lines.

    If those features would be added the program would be off great use.

  11. Adobe, we need full pro support for mouse, zoom, and keyboard shortcuts on iPad Illustrator!

    Hey Adobe team,

    I’m writing here after what feels like a decade of waiting for the iPad to become a true pro tool for design work. When Illustrator finally came to iPad, I thought, finally – this is it. But there’s a huge issue holding everything back: the lack of proper support for mouse, zoom, and keyboard shortcuts.

    It’s honestly mind-blowing. Why would you allow mouse and keyboard connections but leave out essential features like zooming with the mouse and supporting standard desktop shortcuts? The constant need to take my hands off the mouse or keyboard just to zoom or…

  13. Scales and line dimension handles

    I would like to see architecture and engineer scales in Ai, similar to Cadtools14 plugin. But allow the line segment transform properties to have the scaled X, Y positions as well as the scaled length in the transform dialogue box (as well as the native X, Y and length) so that the user can specify the X, Y, length (and angle) of both the scaled dimension as well as the native dimensions and have the line segment transform accordingly. Also have the rulers and grid lines with the option of the scaled dimensions

  14. Pen tool additional menu

    When using the desktop and the Pen tool, I am constantly adding points, subtracting points, and adjusting Bezier curves.
    On the iPad, I can add points, but I cannot remove them.
    Having the additional menu that the selection arrow has would be very helpful for the Pen tool.

  15. Eraser tool on the iPad should work with Shift and Option/Alt shortcuts (like desktop)

    On the desktop, Shift constrains the eraser to 45º and Option/Alt erases as a marquee.
    Can we please have the same functionality for the iPad? The touch shortcuts don't work with the eraser tool, and neither do the keyboard shortcuts. Thanks!

  16. Join Tool

    Like on the desktop version of Illustrator, where you can draw overlapping lines, then scrub through them at the intersections to trim them off and simultaneously join them into a single anchor point.
    Something like vector trimming on Fresco, but for anchor points.

  17. ability to set repeat distance to specific value

    It would be very helpful to be able to set the repeat distance (space between repeated objects) to a specific value or have the distance snap to the grid when snap to grid is active.

  18. Ability to use arrow keys for cursor placement within text.

    When editing text, it’d be great to be able to use the arrow keys on the magic keyboard to move the cursor within text vs. having to use my fingers to drop the cursor.
