Observations and Suggestions

[britepencil]

So far I like what AD has to offer. I primarily use CorelDraw and when I first saw AD way back when it was Mac only. I am glad to see the transition to Windows.

 

Inital observations

 

1. Conical Gradient tool AWESEOME! CorelDraw has had this for as long as I can recall. illustrator is only a cumbersome work around

 

2. pen and line tools good but if I may suggest a change. In order to change the still I need to draw a line first then add style or line type...it should be if I select a tool type and be able to select object before I draw for example blur blur effect or bevel. This way I can see the effects right away and not have to stop edit then continue drawing.

 

3. combining object in Coreldraw and illustrator the order is first or last object select. AD has it bottom object only, would it be possible to change this to an active object like in illustrator or Coreldraw?

Hey britepencil,

 

1. You can find the Conical gradient tool from the Fill Tool's context toolbar at the top of the screen. 

 

2. I think this would be a nice idea - Feature request/improvement.

 

3. Improvement.

 

Thanks for the comments. I'll move this to the Feature Requests where development are more likely to pick it up. I can certainly get on board with your idea for step 2 :)
