    Please share your thoughts on the following:

    1. Would it make sense to have a separate desktop app, just to create charts, and bring them inside Illustrator or InDesign? It may not be on cloud.

    2. Or would you rather have us work on building it within Illustrator?

    Thanks
    Yogesh

    Hi!
    Such tool is being developed by Adobe. Have you heard of http://data-illustrator.com?

    It's in early stages. The problem with the char tool inside Illustrator is that is really destructive as soon as you start formatting. It is good for small charts, but it is unusable when you need to keep it linked to more complex databases.

    Meanwhile, I would look at Datawrapper, Flourish, RAWGraphs, etc.

    A couple of questions on this:

    1. Would it be okay to have a separate spec creation service much like the upcoming Adobe XD service? On this service, anyone with a link, can select any objects, and view its dimensions (W/H), colors, fonts etc. Or should it be inside Illustrator.

    2. Are you only going to create horizontal, and vertical dimensions? Or would you also like to have angular dimensions as well?

    Please share more details about your workflow.

    Thanks,
    Yogesh

    Hi!

    I think that the display of measures should emulate the one from Figma, with a simple alt+rollover:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/16v2m_y3paTDSEN6IjY3Im8bwdLDpU0Z2/view?usp=sharing

    This would be practical for everybody, specially UI designers.

  3. Smart Guides when hovering over object and holding Cmd / Ctrl

    Exact! The current measure tool is not that precise nor practical, because involves unnecessary interaction (non snapping dragging) .

    I think that the display of measures should emulate the one from Figma, with a simple alt+rollover:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/16v2m_y3paTDSEN6IjY3Im8bwdLDpU0Z2/view?usp=sharing

    I'm so used to it, that not having it in Illustrator has become increasingly frustrating

    This would be practical for everybody, specially UI designers.

  4. How come the measure tool does not snap to points?
