    ACTUALLY, there IS a way to adjust in Illustrator. However, I still think there could be some adjustments to Illustrator and Photoshop to bring the exact same input methods to both for more seamlessness.

    If you hover over the number in the Charter panel in Illustrator, you can use the scroll wheel on a mouse or scroll ring on a trackball to adjust the number below the cursor WITHOUT selecting it. This function doesn't work in Photoshop currently, unless you select the number with the cursor first.
    Yet still, it would be nice to bring the adjustment mechanism from Photoshop, of hovering over the icon, over to Illustrator.

    Wow, so my suggestion (assumed I wasn't the only one notice the lack of this, but didn't come across it when searching here) got merged with the ask from TWENTY SEVENTEEN?! Based on the original post this was a function we had back then that got removed and then never put back in. The version in Photoshop works great. Typical that SEVEN years later we still are waiting for something simple...

    Would like to see the scrubby adjustment function come to the Character panel adjustments in Illustrator.

    For instance, in Photoshop, when you place the cursor over any of the icons in the Character panel (ie Kerning, Tracking, Font Size etc.) and move left and right the number will adjust within the text field.

    This doesn’t currently work that way in Illustrator on Mac or on PC, extra steps are needed to select the text number and adjust it. Since Photoshop and Illustrator share the same tool window design it should be an easy feature to bring over to Illustrator. The functionality works in other Adobe products that have a different UI for Character tools like After Effects.

    Screen record examples attaching showing how the same action in Photoshop and Illustrator don’t produce the same result.

    Once you get use to using this adjustment in Photoshop you realize how much more efficient its implementation is and Illustrator could gain faster functionality as well by bringing it in.

    In the apps I use this WORKS in:
    Photoshop
    After Effects
    Premiere Pro

    In the apps I use this DOESN’T WORK in:
    Illustrator
    InDesign

    Turning off the save in background option fixed what was bugging me. My work process in Illustrator has always been to do a quick CMD S, followed by a CMD W to save and close a document open. Since this feature was added to save in background, the commands so close together would pop up a notice window letting me know the document was being saved and would be closed when done, which happens every time. Ideally that box could have a "don't show again" check box because you can't do anything till you hit okay. Figure I'll just leave the save in background off cause most AI files for me tend to be smaller and save/close quickly.

    When you double click the rotate toolbar icon, the rotate tool options pops up. By default the circle with the line pointing at 9:00 is highlighted which you can grab with the mouse and rotate. If the preview button is checked you'll see it move. This being the default action seems not the best UI as I would normally just hover the cursor around the objects corner till I got rotate icon and not go into the tool options.

    Preferably, double clicking the icon would auto select the text entry field since the reason I'm double clicking the icon is to quickly enter 90 or 45 or something to do a known degree adjustment. I know I can do a number via the Transform window, its just not always up plus I've used double click on rotate tool for a LONG time.

    AT LEAST please fix the fact that to tab from the circle icon to the text field is FIVE hits of the tab button. since its next to the icon ideally it would be a single tap if and not the last one. THANKS!
