    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    The day has come. The latest 30.5.0.102 Beta adds Align To and Distribute Spacing commands into the Object menu.

    These also work in actions, can get hotkeys assigned.

    A shy message gets displayed when Align To mode is toggled to be sure it’s switched, and the Distribute Spacing dialog allows the set the gap value with the Preview option.

    This is a lot, and it now completes the original request.

    Please try, test, comment back, have joy!

    So we are able to set hotkeys to align now but the numpad numbers are the same as regular numbers.

    Could you differentiate them? I've seen other softwares use 1,2,3 etc. for regular number shortcuts and NUM1, NUM2, NUM3 etc. for numpad shortcuts. If the numpad shortcuts are different, we can set NUM8 to align top, NUM4 to align left, NUM6 to align right, and NUM2 to align bottom for quality of life changes.

  2. Align text vertically

    We do but only for a few assets. For instance, we're a box company and at times we need to create dielines for our customers that include a watermark. Well, because we have multiple designers, we needed a central source the designers can pull the watermark from and so I just uploaded it onto the cloud and it becomes easily accessible for everyone right inside Illustrator's "Libraries".

    Microsoft Excel has this feature if Adobe programmers need a reference.
    They have a "Top/Middle/Bottom align" for vertical
    and "Left/Center/Right align" for horizontal

    Yes this is ridiculous. "Save a Copy" action should work the same way as "Save As". It currently won't let us choose a destination folder...we're stuck saving all our files with the filename we originally used when recording the Action.
