    I would like Illustrator to have a Mosaic Arrange feature, similar to the layout organization available in Firefly Canvas.

    As a designer, I often use Illustrator to create moodboards, brand presentations and visual boards because I can work with vector assets, references, typography and layout elements in the same file. Illustrator already has strong alignment and distribution tools, but they mostly work in linear or grid-based ways. A mosaic layout tool would be very useful for organizing selected objects into a balanced visual composition automatically.

    The feature could allow users to select multiple objects, images or vector assets and arrange them into a responsive mosaic inside a defined area or artboard. It should preserve proportions, adjust spacing, balance object sizes, and create a clean composition without requiring manual resizing and alignment.

    Useful options could include:
    - Arrange selected objects into a mosaic layout
    - Fit mosaic to artboard, selection bounds or custom frame
    - Preserve original aspect ratios
    - Set spacing/gutter between items
    - Shuffle or regenerate layout variations
    - Crop/mask images to fit the mosaic when needed
    - Reflow the layout when adding or removing objects
    - Keep everything editable as Illustrator objects

    This would be especially valuable for designers creating moodboards, brand identity presentations, visual research boards, asset libraries, campaign concepts and creative direction documents. It would save time, reduce repetitive manual organization, and allow designers to stay inside Illustrator instead of using another tool just to create a more dynamic board layout.
