Can you add a button that ‘Zooms to True Scale’?
I do a lot of design work where I need to see how big something is in real life. It would be nice if I could tell it to set the view to match the real world. So 1” = 1”, or 1mm = 1mm.
Ideally it would have a little icon in the bottom right that always shows what the scale factor is compared to the real world (like .25/1 if smaller, or 1.25/1 if zoomed in), then you could click the button and it would snap the zoom to 1/1.
I currently hold a ruler or calipers up…

Use different units of measure when transforming object
When creating an object, I often need to resize it according to specification. In an AI project, I use different units of measure. Say, for instance, that the project has a default unit setting of ‘centimeters’. If I need to create a 7.5x3 inch object, I’d like to be able to type the unit in the width and height fields on the Properties-Transform panel. For example, I want to type height = 7.5 in. The “in” would replace the “cm” which automatically appears in the field.

zoom out with 2 fingers optional please
understandable that some users like the zoom out gesture with 2 fingers
for all other users - perhaps many - who find it very frustrating and unnecessary, can we please have this gesture as an option?
on average working 3h with iPad illustrator, even though I very much carefully avoid this gesture, at least 10-20 times in 3h, by total mistake I end up undoing the accidental zoom out, meaning having to zoom in and zoom in and zoom in then pan and pan and pan until I am again where I was before the accidental zoom out

Clear Recent Files
Allow to Recent files in the Home screen to be cleared. Especially helpful for when I'm sharing my screen and don't want my students to see all my recent files.

still show the layers as white being blank when using dark theme interface
When using the light theme, if you look at the layer, blank space for the thumbnail of that layer is seen as white. However, if you use the dark theme interface, it somehow makes the blank space of the thumbnail layer block, which makes it very difficult to see what’s on that layer.
So, I’d really appreciate it if you could make it so that when I’m using the dark theme for the user interface, the blank space of a layer thumbnail is still white.

The Zoom Indicator should not be in decimals
I dont know whats going on but the zoom indicator at the top of the UI that displays the zoom percentage should not be in decimals. I dont know why its like that. Nobody works that way. Nobody says, " Oh, i need to be zoomed in at 156.73%." Nobody says that. Just make it 156% or 157%. Dont add decimals. Remove them. This is an easy fix. This is not a feature request. This is a design issue. Please fix it.

Add a quick show/hide button to reveal tool tip labels
Unlike desktop/Wacom styluses, the apple pencil has no hover state which makes it hard to know what tool does what. Would be very useful to have a quick show/hide button to quickly see hovering tool tips for each tool option in lieu of having a hover capability. Example UI attached.

Jump to the canvas area where Undo Redo happens
Tap (finger or pencil) UNDO or REDO banner/notification to jump to the undo/redo area. I.e. I want to see what I undo/redo when I have accidentally jumped art boards.
Without the screen real estate of a desktop or laptop, it can be easy to get lost in a smaller and easily rescalable (i.e. “quick pinch gesture” to jump to art board) workspace.

Can we get the full toolbar same as the desktop for iPad?
The full tool bar is necessary for the iPad, having to use 2 different devices is pointless. I didn’t get an iPad to be limited to my abilities with illustrator. I can’t arch I can’t use effect I can’t do a lot and that’s a problem. I didn’t pay for this software to only get bits and pieces of what I had been paying for, for 6+ years. The iPad is fully capable of using the full toolbar let’s implement it.

Constrain proportions during resizing
The user shouldn't need to use "the bubble" in order to keep proportions of an object during resizing.
If I want to resize a circle, I shouldn't need to take additional step while resizing it in order for it not to turn into an oval.

Turn Off Undo/Redo Buttons
I need a setting in the app settings that will allow users to turn off the undo and redo buttons at the top of the UI where the navigation bar is located. I dont need to see them. Theyre distracting. I use my 2 fingers and 3 finger gesture to undo/redo, so I have no use in seeing them up there. Im not going to use them. Im using my gestures instead. Please allow users to turn them off in the app settings. This is an easy fix. This should be in the next update.

Linguagem em Português
Vocês poderiam adicionar no aplicativo para o iPad a linguagem em português, para facilitar para os brasileiros também a utilizar, amo todas plataforma de vocês, mas isso é algo fundamental, ter opção de linguagem não só em português mas em outras línguas para o aplicativo do iPad.

Processor usage indicator
I often struggle with not knowing if nothing is happening because what I am trying to do is not supported, or if nothing is happening because the M 1 processor is just busy doing the calculations needed to execute my command.
As illustrator is rather processor consuming, it is often the latter, but I never know for sure until waiting time is over, or until I have given up hope and jumped to some other function. Some kind of “the iPad processor is busy calculating your request, please hold”-indicator would be extremely helpful thank you.1 vote -
フレスコのようにタッチショートカットを固定（長押ししなくてもいい）できるようにしてほしい
フレスコのようにタッチショートカットがタッチごとに切り替わって固定できるようにしてほしい。
片腕しか使えないから、ペンを持ってると長押ししながらペンで描画とか不可能だから、ほぼ使えない機能なのが悲しい。
切実に追加してほしい。1 vote -
