  4. Swatches and eye dropper tool

    I would like to see an eye dropper tool and the swatches panel in Illustrator for iPad. The eye dropper tool would be useful for selecting colors in a photo and applying those colors to a shape. The swatches panel would be useful for selecting textures and previous colors that were used.

  5. 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.

  6. Do Not Change/Select Random Colors When Creating Gradients

    When switching from a Solid color to a Gradient, the app will choose a (seemingly) random secondary color in order to visually show the gradient effect.

    I would prefer that all points of the gradient maintain the singular ‘Solid’ color.

    This is because I very often want to create a subtle gradient between a darker and lighter shade of the originally chosen color. More often than not, I need to copy the original color back into the new gradient point and then go from there - which can be frustrating because the app is making decisions for me that I…

  7. French Curve tools. I used it with the older version of Adobe Draw for iPad when Apple Pencil was released. I need it put back.

    French Curve tools. I used it with the older version of Adobe Draw for iPad when Apple Pencil was released. I need it put back. As a clothing designer I’m writing a design pattern drafting book. I started the project years ago using the French Curve tools that were available in the Adobe Draw app that is no longer available. I need those tools to complete my book project. Drawing pattern drafts require those tools. Please put the French Curve tools back into the tools area for the iPad Adobe Illustrator app to be used with Apple Pencil. I can’t…

  8. Could snapping work on everything? Anchor points, intersections, center points?

    I can't get these grouped pivot point circles to align precisely enough to be usable. Rotate center can't snap to anything either.
    In the Desktop version, everything snaps precisely and its great for making these little articulating animal designs, which I then laser cut. I’d LOVE this functionality on my iPad, to design on-the-go as I hoped I’d be able to.

  9. Being able to import Fresco iPad brushes to iPad illustrator and save them permanently to the illustrator brush library.

    Fresco has a great set of brushes. It would improve Illustrator on the iPad immensely if they were interchangeable and could be added to the illustrator iPad brush menu permanently.

  10. 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

  11. 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!

  12. Make CC library (sub)folders and folder names visible

    I work with various projects that each has separate collections, so I have my color swatches sorted accordingly into each collection folder in my CC Libraries for each project - which is great when I switch from Illustrator to Photoshop and other desktop programs. But on iPad version of Illustrator all swatches are in one huge messy mix of swatches without any kind of (sub)folders visible - I can´t believe that this basic functionality is still missing. Hope it will be improved very soon!

  13. An eyedropper like the desktop that samples swatches, can apply appearances

    If you apply global swatches to your artwork on the iPad, you can't use the eyedropper to accurately sample those colors/swatches to other objects. The eyedropper reads the color, but the formula numbers are slightly off, and it applies this to the object, rather than applying the swatch. Also, when I create a swatch on the iPad using whole numbers, when I open the file on the desktop, the swatch has decimal numbers. You can't type in any decimals on the iPad, and yet they are there on the desktop. Designers need accurate swatch functionality and a better eyedropper on…

  14. 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.

  16. Keep width profiles and stroke settings

    Allow option to keep width profiles and stroke settings constantly active when drawing. So annoying that it reverts back to basic every time I make a new stroke with pencil or pen tools! It makes it hard to draw!

  17. Finger Gesture Workflow

    I just started my trial for illustrator on iPad, and Im already upset because of this touch modifier button. Why am I forced as a user to use this touch modifier button? Why can’t I just use a 1 finger or 2 fingers ANYWHERE on the ipad screen to do primary and secondary behaviors? I dont want to use this touch modifier. I instead want to use my fingers because its easier and faster.

    I hate how I SPECIFICALLY have to tap on this touch modifier button to do primary and secondary behaviors for different tools and actions. I want…

  18. Blend Tool (for Illustrator iPad) Should also work for Font

    at the moment blend for Illustrator iPad works only for Paths and isn’t applicable for fonts unlike in Illustrator for Desktop, hope this feature would be applied to future updates for the iPad version. Thank you very much.

  20. アピアランスをいじれるようにして頂きたい

    デスクトップ版のようにアピアランスを細かくいじれるようにして頂ければ長くiPad版のIllustratorを使いたいと感じました。文字の上にしかアウトラインを追加できない点、パスの変形をより多くの機能を持たせる、デスクトップ版のIllustratorのような効果の追加、パスの追加、まとめて選択した場合縦横比を維持して変形できるようにするをお願いします。
