    Need More Info  ·  Yogesh Sharma responded

    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

    Being in the sign industry an automatic measure tool is essential, it takes me twice as long to produce detailed layouts for clients and installers... I cant see how hard it would be to add!!......... Corel has had it for years!!

    Im in the signage and print industry and this tool would save so much time, its one of the most frustrating things not to have. Come on adobe come to the party and save us......and my blood pressure.
