    Ah, yes, most probably! But I admit this one should be telegraphed better, without a nested window perhaps. Recolor is a very dense dialog, very powerful, but at the same time pretty convoluted.

    Katie, in the Recolor Artwork dialog click the Color Reduction Options button (the one I have my cursor over at the attached screenshot), and in the smaller dialog uncheck Preserve Black.
    By default Ai won’t do anything with black or white when recoloring anything, so you should uncheck these when needed before tweaking these.
    Please check if it works and comment back.

    Yep, Ton, I love the idea of the offsets as well.

    I see.
    There is an existing request, Show reference point locator in Scale/Rotate/Shear/Reflect tool dialogue — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/32927581
    Then, there is a very similar, but a bit different request, Scale and Reflect using selected reference point — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/37662049

    Whenever I need to scale using the 9-grid reference point — I just scale using Transform or Control, by typing 125%, followed by Ctrl+Enter, to make it it uniform (the lock is almost always disabled for me). Since I have a custom system to quickly set reference point with Numpad and quickly focus W and H fields, I use this method very often — but I can’t really recommend it, since to set it up is pain.

    There is another way. Not sure if you know (I bet you do, but just in case), Ai allows to set a custom pivot for scale in any position on canvas AND show the dialog: hold Opt/Alt, click and drag to set the point. Once the mouse/pen is released, the dialog pops. Since the pivot is affected by smart guides, it can be snapped to a corner or an intersection, if needed. Some times I use this method too (but switching snapping modes is another problem).

    So... do you think I should merge this request into either of these two, or would you prefer to keep it, since it’s somewhat different?

    Sam, please help me to understand the request.
    Do you mean
    1. an ability to choose a reference point (the same way Transform Each allows to) for a custom selection of ungrouped objects, but using just Scale tool?
    2. and ability to set a custom center of transformation when scaling with Scale tool, but have a field to set a scale value also?
    3. something else entirely?

    Why only Character styles? I’d say Paragraph styles dialog is as slow! Would you agree?

    There are multiple ways to achieve this in Illustrator right now.
    The most straightforward is to use Rotate and Scale tools with Smart Guides on, Snap to Grid off, and holding Ctrl to aim to points, as the first GIF shows.

    Then, there is the Orient Transform plugin from AstuteGraphics: https://astutegraphics.com/learn/tutorial/orient-transform-tool-subscribe
    It’s a paid tool, but it simplifies the workflow, as the second GIF shows.

    For some cases you can clip the art to a shape and resize this clipping group to match the scale you need and unclip it.

    Illustrator allows this, but the intended workflow may see cumbersome for modern times.
    Keyboard shortcut sets are stored as .kys files, which we can copy, save, share (as files), upload (manually and not in Adobe Cloud)...
    Here is the help article about it: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/customizing-keyboard-shortcuts.html

    But I suppose you know this already, and you are more interested in integration with Cloud and the ability to quickly fetch these when reinstalling the app?
    Please explain more.

    Sam, not sure what you mean. Can you please share some screenshot or better a short video? A test file would help as well.

    There are two more scripts to help up with this problem, StrokesWeightUp and Down, be Sergey Osokin:
    https://github.com/creold/illustrator-scripts/blob/master/md/Style.md#strokesweight

    Still would require some external mapping (Ai still doesn’t offer a way to map direct hotkeys to scripts — upvote this request for having it: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/31039456)

    crode, here you are.
    Yes, Karabiner could help.
    In scripts you should check units. I work in CMYK and metric scale mostly, you could edit it to perform for your cause.

    Ryan, I can share two scripts (plus and minus) you can wrap in actions and assign F hotkeys to it. Will it suffice for now? I agree it should come from the box, but this works too.
    And if you are on Windows, you can use AHK to reassign them to any other combination you want, not only Fs. Mac has something other for this, I forgot the name.

    My only guess would be the account you are using is getting automatically recognized as registered in one of countries Adobe doesn’t provide certain services to. Generative features in Ai are technically related to the Firefly family, and this article applies to them: https://helpx.adobe.com/ro/firefly/get-set-up/learn-the-basics/adobe-firefly-faq.html

    I’d suggest to contact the support and check it with them: https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?step=ILST (click 'Start now' link) at the bottom of the page.

    Aubree, try to locate 'CCX Welcome' folder on your computer (might be hidden) and delete or move it temporarily. The relaunch Ai. Would it help?
    The solution can be temporary though.
    Anyway, please comment back.

    Can you record this on video? Not sure I can reproduce it
    Also — does the legacy New Document dialog behave better? You can enable it in Preferences > General, 'Use legacy "File New> interface' option.

    Illustrator on desktop allows this.
    Make sure your guides are unlocked (with View > Guides > Unlock Guides command), select a guide, pick Rotate tool, and either drag it to rotate or press Enter to set a precise angle.
    Also you can just draw a line and rotate it and convert it to a guide (or it can be any other path).
    Does it work for you?

    I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 25.4.1 which is available worldwide now.

    Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

    You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

    Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

    Yeah, the Pantone deal is a horrible story.
    Everybody feels betrayed, and us users especially.
    Pantone won’t come back anytime sooner, they push their own extension, Pantone Connect (it takes fees!).

    If you want a substitute palette — there are some available on the web, but I won’t provide a link here, you’d have to search for it your self.

    The blue notification — oh, this is not OK. Please tell more about the display you are using, UI scaling options, etc., provide a full-sized screenshot.

    From my practice, Ai handles old swatches in files better than Ps, and no conversion-to-lack happens, even with the latest 27.0.1 — for me they all just get converted to spot colors with appropriate values. Again — please tell more.

    Crashes — yes, the more functions it gets, the more bulkier the thing gets. But the overall stability still feels junky! So do please always send those crash reports, report bugs, just to let them know! There is little I can personally offer to you, but I really hope for the trust to come back and work on it.

    The easiest part is that square enclosing frame with 8 markers. Just turn it off — View > Hide Bounding Box (or hit Cmd+Shift+B). I almost never use it myself, exactly because of this 'sure you want to scale or rotate!' imposition! You should not have waited for 30 years with this!

    Since AI allows to create Live Shapes now, there definitely should be a Live Spiral (and Archimedian too).
