After learning Illustrator and since I know a bit about programming, here are my list of suggestions. I do know the difference between vector and raster, but these are worth adding... which I accounted for raster v. Vector. - History Palatte -History Save option -Undo management overall. (like selecting a shape is equal to an undo and deselecting a shape is also an undo, as a feature.) - Font Manager (like Font Book in the Mac) for organizing fonts by category... (Across Adobe Products would be nice) - Auto Save feature. - Drag-drop between documents feature with perfect alignment (i.e. shift key) - Better copy-paste options between documents. (Restricted to between documents rather than in document as well.) - Better options or set options on the pen tool's option key, shift key, etc so it doesn't shift whenever it feels like it in an order that's not intuitive to the user. (For example, command key on mac is always direct selection tool, throw in the option key and you get the selection tool, etc. Right now it's NOT intuitive.) Or at least give the user the option to do so. Ideally one should never have to switch out of the pen tool by hitting any other shortcut key... or at least give consistency. - Ruler options so they can be automatically on in a document and the guides don't always nudge by the ruler measurement, or have an option for it. - Ability to make gradients into brushes. - Auto tapering or a setting for end tapering of a path/line by pressure of stylus. - ctrl+click+selection tool/right click+selection tool gives a list of layers in a flyout menu. To help select a particular path. Currently it just has the undos, etc... - Lock position on objects (making it easier to change color en mass, etc)
