Please post a comment if enabling Palm Rejection (explained below) does not help.

Hey there Adobe team, the palm rejection feature does not stop the palm from interacting all the time. My understanding was that the touch button was the only area where fingers could interact.
If having gestures is creating this issue, why not having a setting that allows us to choose if we want finger gestures to work as long as the touch button is pressed? For many of us the palm interaction creates a lot of issues.
Please? It’s a simple touch button check ahead of accepting a gesture?

Yes please, also there is no way to use Unicode characters. Isn’t this part of iOS?
I am able to use Unicode with any app on my iPad Pro iOS 15; but Illustrator does not ?

Yes please, also the increase/decrease is currently fixed by a constant value, meaning that depending on the resolution of the artwork (picture imported) a tap on plus or minus would work more or less. If the resolution of the image is low, this feature cannot be used at all as 1 pixel increment in vector art at low resolution may be too much. With high resolution images it may be too little.
The solution is simple, give us control to select that increment value when tweaking values inside Property/Values.
Let us select the ratio so we could say we need to work with 0.05 as the value to increase or decrease; or 5 if we do need this. Power and freedom. This is such as small tweak, you have this value already within your function, just need to display it and allow us to change it as we need.
Please also allow us to be able to use the Property values with points as well and not only with objects.

The anchor point is one of the top killer additions to the transformation tool in Illustrator. Currently as of 28 Jan 2021, we can only change the anchor point when rotating a shape.
However this functionality is very limited considering the potential of the anchor point nd that the anchor point is reset to centre, whether we need this behaviour or not.
For example, why can’t why adjust the anchor point for scaling or ny other transformation (skew, distort, warp, perspective, etc) as well?
Could we also snap the anchor point to every corner of the marquee?
How about leaving the anchor point where we moved it after rotating but also scaling and transforming an object? Resetting the anchor point limits the next operation and forced us to repositioning again. When working I very precise artwork such as icons or logos, it’s literally impossible to position the anchor point at the exact same location without using guides or spending a lot of unnecessary time.
If we move the anchor point before transforming the object it may mean that we need this anchor point to stay there as this is the new local origin for that shape for future transformations.
By pressing and holding the rotating handle again we could simply reset/centre the anchor point, hence we would have both options to work with.
It happens very often that while designing, different shapes own different origin local coordinates. This is where the anchor point comes handy. Centring the anchor point all the time is something that we rarely need in vector art.
We should be able to rotate, transform any object using the corners of the marquee without having to use the finger press for a simple transformation that does not happen from the center; and if we moved the anchor point the same would apply. We can’t we use the corner of the marque to rotate instead of the rotating handle? I believe design packages using the corners of the marquee take the corners as parametric adjustment instead of linear, giving us more fine control. Would this be possible ?
Thoughts?

Yes, and avoid the current issue where when we try to joint 2 paths and the points are very close, inevitably Illustrator joints both paths but creates 2 points one on top of the other.
This current behaviour forces us to delete one of these two points if we need to adjust that point - unnecessary loss of time in addition to the inconvenience. This happens all the time, and I mean hundreds of times a day
Hey adobe team, hep us to take this feature to the next level.
How about if we move one point close to another point from a different shape, with the snap turned on the point not only snaps perfectly, illustrator could pop a message that says “ join both points and connect both shapes ( yes,no )
If we just want to snap, one tap on NO is easy and fast enough, one tap on YES is powerful to save a lot of time. And why not adding a preference in case some users prefer a simple point snap functionality?
This would really really help. What does everyone think? Isn’t this. Super-killer improvement?

Can’t agree more. The current/growing ‘repeat section’ with mirror, grid, radial and blend is adding great functionality, especially with the recent shape transform.
However, the very basic transform/duplicate repeat is still missing
Think about this scenario, if we create a circle, change its pívot, rotate it, change its pívot, scale it and move it in space - and, we need to repeat this action more than once, there is currently no way to do this with AI on iPad. This is a very common scenario on a daily basis with pretty much any piece of artwork
We need tools that help us to create organic art, moving away from repeated “computerise” generated patterns. Organic forms are characterised by random forms not linear
Repeat last action may be the most usable feature provided by computers following the undo/redo and copy/paste..
When combined with the power of transforming the object (move, scale, distort, skew, perspective, warp, etc) when duplicating this object, the power of this action becomes unlimited - including generating random transformations to create unlimited organic forms in no time
The ice on the cake would come from adding the possibility of randomise the transforming parameters within a particular range. For example move pívot randomly +/- 5 pixels, scale object in x only by +10%, move the object 15 pixels in and randomly from 5 to 25 pixels in y, move agin its pivot to the top/right corner and rotate clockwise 10 degrees
Instantly Adobe Illustrator for iPad would become a top tool not only for designers, also for motion graphics artist worldwide
Want it even better?, how about incorporating the option of adding variables like Adobe after effects?

Hey there rain cyrax, can’t agree more. There is another threat with this same idea, perhaps you can shift your vote to it to help us. Cheers

Agree, the lasso tool can replace the marquee if needed
The marquee cannot replace the marquee
Please this is an essential tool for vector artwork

Definitely needed and a great addition to the already killer AI for iPad; great point about keeping the transformation bounding box constrained to the new values; it will help us to make any further changes without limitation
Can we please also consider transformation of nodes as well and not only shapes and groups?
Imagine selecting a number of nodes, positioning your pivot/axis/anchor point where you want and be able to transform those selected nodes (scale-rotate-skew-warp-distort-mirror-etc) using the pivot point as the origin of such transformation, insane!
What does everyone think?
There is an associated issue with this problem. Many of us keep our hand up not touching the screen fearing that the palm will zoom in or out or execute an action. Ergonomically wise, this can create an issue with the shoulder of that arm. Palm rejection should always work so we don’t get into these unhealthy habits nd trust the hand can be on the screen as much as we want.
Please enable gestures only when touch button is on, as a setting
