An error occurred while saving the comment This is something you can achieve with scripts: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/how-to-switch-illustrator-documents-using-script/td-p/8364092
You can then make an action to call this script.
Actions are more about operating within a document, although I agree they can benefit from more extensive applications. -

You can insert the 'Document Color Mode: CMYK' command into an action using the 'Insert Menu Item' from the Actions panel’s flyout menu

An error occurred while saving the comment Chris, is this still an issue for you in the latest version of Illustrator?

An error occurred while saving the comment Actually a point (which is a a fraction of an inch) is a typographic measure, which is more related to printing, than for a screen use. The way Ai teats it as an equivalent to a pixel is a historical tradition, and it costs it a lot these days, when resolutions differ from those we had when these got linked.
But oh boy I understand your frustration.
But for me units stick too millimeters correctly when changed, and all presets in the Print section of this modern New Document dialog are displayed with 'mm'... Can you recheck if they do for you now? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Jan, I can see the centerpoints now stay when you convert an object into a guide... can you recheck it, please?

An error occurred while saving the comment A workaround I personally use when I need to distribute objects like this, is to draw two lines (vertical, in case I need to distribute horizontally, and vice versa), align each one to the opposite edges of an artboard, and then to distribute the whole selection as usual. This is no exactly fast, but doable. See the attached GIF for clarification.

An error occurred while saving the comment Oh yes.
There is definitely a need to be able to do it form the box.Luckily, we have some scripts written to help us with 'nailing' points and objects to the grid.
1. Round Coordinates by Sergey Osokin: https://github.com/creold/illustrator-scripts/blob/master/md/Item.md#roundcoordinates
Respects the grid settings, the Use Preview Bounds options, the reference point.2. jooSnapToDocumentGrid by joojaa: https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/64365/script-to-automatically-snap-all-points-to-grid-in-adobe-illustrator
I have modified it to respect two points paths, groups, compound paths, point text objects, and also handles, guides, clips as customizable options.
I attach it here as a TXT file, which you’d have to rename back to JSX again after downloading, since UV block uploading scripts. -

An error occurred while saving the comment This feels like a very narrow thing to have. Why in the middle? Why only for handles? What is the case for having this option?

An error occurred while saving the comment This can be caused by having Snap to Pixels also on... I wonder if this is still an issue though.

An error occurred while saving the comment Denise, you say it worked in some previous version of Ai... which one?
And how did it work for you exactly? Can you describe the steps, in full?
The team is working on this request now:
https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests/suggestions/40418827-add-ability-to-hyperlink-text
...but I suspect we are talking about different types of 'linking'. -

An error occurred while saving the comment It always puzzled me why the pivot for these gets always placed in the middle (and does not get saved — there is a separate popular request for this: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/31518439-rotation-center-point-remains-with-objects-and-gro)...
So instead I went the route of automating the reference point setting with hotkeys (again, there is a request: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests/suggestions/32403805-make-setting-reference-point-hotkeyable) and using Flip actions, bound to F-keys.
This solves the problem with Reflect for me, and the scaling I do numerically, using basic math in Width and Height fields in Transform... but this limits me me to fields. If I want to use tools — I still have to enable Smart Guides, disable Snap to Grid (they don’t work together, and there is a request to fix that — won’t give another link here), and click to dfine the pivot. Tedious!
But how would you solve the problem of switching between too modes — the 'same as the reference point' and 'center' (which is still needed in a lot of cases), and on the fly?AdminEgor Chistyakov

Export Selection command can be assigned to a hotkey... it can be inserted into an action with the 'Insert Menu Item' from the Actions panel’s flyout menu... but this won’t be a full automation, you’d still have to verify settings and click OK.
But Export Assets / for Screens dialog now supports user defined presets, which can make it less tedious to setup. Does it solve the problem at least partially for you?
