Got Feature Requests?

Hi All,
We are getting ready to wrap up Spry 1.6 in the next couple
weeks. As we end a release cycle, we start to redirect cycles to
thinking about the future.
So while the feature set for 1.6 is baked, I wanted to ask
our aspiring community for feature requests.
What would you like to see in a future version of Spry?
Got widgets?
Must-have data features?
Enhancements?
Tutorials or documentation? Samples?
If someone has already listed something that you want, vote
for it. It can only help.
Let us know what you want for Spry and keep your eyes open
for 1.6 in early Oct.
Thanks,
Adobe Spry Team

You can already do that easily in Spry 1.6 with the element

FEATURE REQUEST: Enhanced Texture Options in FW

Recently, a forum user was asking how to change the color of a texture in Fireworks to red or blue. In particular, he/she was struggling with attempting to apply a texture to a white object, and it wasn't showing up.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1006694?tstart=0
The question got me thinking about textures, how they're created and how they're applied. Textures are a unique and distinctive feature of Fireworks. On the one hand, the interface for textures is very simple to use and almost magical; on the other hand, it's surprisingly limited. The concept is great, but the implementation seems only half-baked.
With this in mind, I'd like to suggest a few simple ways that textures could be made more fluid and versatile in Fireworks.
First, a little background...
WHAT IS A TEXTURE?
In the world of Fireworks, a texture is basically a type of pattern that's applied to an object. However, unlike a pattern fill, textures include transparency and integrate with the existing fill content (color, gradient or pattern). They're suggestive of textures in the real world, which are often tactile and defined visually by light and shadow.
Texture graphics are most commonly grayscale ("black and white") in GIF or PNG format. Applied within the application, the graphics are converted "on the fly" to white-on-transparency. If the Transparent option is checked, the graphic is converted into a sort of mask, making the "textured" areas invisible instead of white.
And that's about it.
So what if you'd like to apply a dark texture to a white object? Sorry, it can't be done. What if you'd like to apply a texture in color? It can't be done. What if you'd like to reverse or invert the pattern of the texture? Can't be done.
Well, in fact, these things can be done, but not directly. They require workarounds such as cloning the object and placing the clone above or beneath the original, applying textures as pattern fills (instead of as textures) and adding effects like Color Fill, Invert, and Convert to Alpha, or editing the texture file directly, saving out a new copy, etc. In short, there are unintuitive ways to accomplish these goals that lead to bloated effects lists and layers or that require extra time and care.
HOW CAN TEXTURES BE IMPROVED?
First of all, does it make any sense that textures are applied exclusively in white? Not really. In the real world, a texture can be defined not just by light but by shadow. And even shadows can have color. This means that, at minimum, it would make sense to allow for the application of a texture in black, and, at maximum, in any chosen color.
Secondly, textures are relative. They represent change to an existing surface. Sometimes, it might make sense to highlight the texture itself; other times, the surface around the texture. This means that being able to quickly reverse the figure-ground relationship of a texture would be a very handy feature.
With the above concerns in mind, I've devised three 'user interface' scenarios, presented here in order of most conservative to most extreme. The first scenario is the least powerful but still doubles the number of possible outcomes (compared to the existing interface). The second scenario may be the most logical of the bunch and represents a modest evolution of the existing interface, while increasing the number of potential outcomes even further. The third scenario allows for the application of any color to a texture but also represents the biggest change to the existing interface; that said, it's also quite compact.
Scenario 1: Invert option
The idea here is simply to add an Invert checkbox to the existing options. Checking this option would convert white to black, allowing for the application of dark textures to white or light-colored objects. In "Transparent" mode, this option would invert or reverse the figure-ground relationship of the existing texture.
Scenario 2: Dropdown menu plus Reverse option
Here, the Transparent checkbox is replaced by a dropdown menu that includes 3 mutually exclusive options: White, Black, or Transparent. Checking the "Reverse" option would invert the figure-ground relationship of the texture. This scenario allows for 6 possible outcomes in place of the existing 2, and is actually more logical than the first scenario, which conflates two options.
Scenario 3: Color picker plus Reverse option
Here, the Transparent checkbox is removed, and in its place, a color chip/palette is added to allow for the selection of any color to be applied to a texture. (Choosing Fill: None would create Transparency.) Again, a "Reverse" option would invert the figure-ground relationship of the texture. This scenario differs most from the existing interface but is quite compact and allows for the greatest number of outcomes.
SO WHAT CAN YOU DO?
I've submitted a feature request to Adobe's official site:

When it comes to bugs and/or feature requests, every vote counts. If you care about this issue, I encourage you to submit your own feature request to the above URL, referencing this post if desired. Feel free to copy and paste the feature request below or write your own. (Be aware that there is a 2,000 character limit to the "issue description" of a bug report or feature request, and the following report is very close to that maximum.)
FEATURE REQUEST
Product name: Fireworks
Product Version: 12.0.0.236
Product language: English
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature: Enhanced texture controls, including the ability to apply textures in black and/or color (instead of white), and the ability to reverse or invert texture.
How would you like the feature to work? Three possible implementations have been outlined in this forum posting:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042206?tstart=0
The basic scenarios are as follows:
SCENARIO 1: An additional "Invert" option. Checking this option would convert white to black, allowing for the application of dark textures to white or light-colored objects. In "Transparent" mode, this option would invert or reverse the figure-ground relationship of the existing texture. This scenario would allow for 4 options in place of the existing 2.
SCENARIO 2: Replace Transparent checkbox with a dropdown menu (White-Black-Transparent) and a "Reverse" checkbox. The dropdown menu offers 3 mutually exclusive options, while "Reverse" inverts the figure-ground relationship of the texture in each case. This scenario would allow for 6 options in place of the existing 2.
SCENARIO 3: Replace Transparent checkbox with a color chip/palette and a "Reverse" checkbox. The color palette would allow for the application of a texture in any color, while choosing Fill: None would create Transparency. This scenario would allow for the greatest number of options.
Why is this feature important to you? Textures are unique to Fireworks and potentially very useful, but their implementation is incomplete. The use of 'white only' means that textures cannot be applied to a white object. Inverting a texture or applying a texture in color requires advanced workarounds and can lead to bloat. The suggested options would make the feature exponentially more powerful and intuitive.

Thanks, Jim! It is a very blog-like post. (I still haven't gotten around to starting a blog but keep thinking I should.)
I figured the clearer and more thought-out the presentation, the greater the likelihood it might get implemented. Also, I was originally stuck on Scenario 1 as a solution, and writing this helped me see other options.

Feature request / Feedback

First off, WebOS is absolutely hands down the best mobile OS ever. I have an iPhone and an Android ICS tablet. But WebOS is still the best.
I love my Touchpad, and if Pre3s had more apps and weren't so expensive online I would totally buy one and replace my iPhone 4S.
Anyways, a couple feature requests for WebOS, and whoever else wants to add to this thread, I'm sure we can get some great ideas.
So yeah, First off:
Calendar- It would be great to be able to set a default view. Personally I like Month, so the default is pretty annoying.
Calendar- For some reason the auto correct won't pop up the menu to add a word to the dictionary when making an event, a weird bug lol.
Browser- Have a way to detect Captcha so that the auto correct doesn't try to correct whatever the captcha wants you to type.
Browser- When watching flash videos full screen it locks to one orientation, so you end up flipping the tablet around sometimes, there's got to be a way to correct this.
General- I have a lot of stuff on my 32GB Touchpad, and the 90% warning gets quite annoying, especially since 2.5GB left is plenty for the OS and other stuff.
Auto correct/Dictionary- If there could be a way for the OS to detect words that are missing a space and just auto correct that rather than thinking of it as a wrong word that would be good too. I'm constantly missing the space bar and hitting the bezel of the screen for some reason, even with using the largest keyboard.
Keyboard- If there was a way to make the keyboard transparent with a variable level that would be badass.
Other than that, WebOS is pretty solid. And of course I'm running the latest 3.0.5, keep you the good work! And I can't wait for HP to start building hardware again, I'm sure it will be better the second time around even though its pretty awesome this time too.

Multiple Imperative Feature Requests

I am a MN Photographer and have been using PS Lightroom through 2 betas and 2 release versions. I have been amazed at the improvements Adobe has added, but from my point of view, they need to add a few more features to make LR more robust and efficient!
I love the way LR makes terrific web galleries!
I am running LR from a Seagate Barracuda 300 External Hard Drive with Firewire connection. I am using a Mac Powerbook (1GHz Processor) with 60GB HD and 55% free, w/ 2GB DRAM, and an Apple Cinema Display. I can't complain about slow downs, but keep my permissions tuned once a week, both on the Mac PB and all EHDs.
LIGHTROOM FEATURE REQUESTS
1. From the Web module, there is only one option for adding Copyright Info to images in the Web Galleries, either ON or OFF. It would be a great addition to have this option variable by type size, type placement on images, and opacity. I last generated a web gallery and some of the images said, "2007 Alex Bachnick All Rights Reserved," but many of the images said, "Alex Bachnick All Rights Reserved," without a year. A few images said, "Copyright 2007 Alex Bachnick All Rights Reserved," like it is supposed to! The LR application has been inconsistent so far in this area. By adding a line of copy that can be saved, and by varying the opacity and placement on images would be a huge step forward!
2. It is IMPERATIVE that you embed metadata into the Web gallery images. This is primarily for adding keywords and copyright information, but LR is inconsistent so far. Sometimes metadata is preserved, but it doesn't always get embedded when exporting images.
3. When I generated a Flash Web Gallery, some of the color was good, some of it was terrible. I have suggested before that you write into the action that takes the original image, reduces it in size, then convert to profile from Prophoto to sRGB. I suspect that you have a script in there "Save for Web". This script is denigrating the color when Convert to Profile would preserve the color. Admittedly Safari is the primary web browser I use, and it's color-centric, whereas most of the others IE, Netscape, and Mozilla, aren't.
4. When I use HTML for the web galleries, the color is spot on, but a young friend told me it would be better to hit one button to go through the images as in a rapidly advancing slide show, rather than hitting each image, and then wait for it to enlarge. This could be another marked improvement, if you made the output a slideshow from the Web Module.
5. I tried generating a slideshow from the Lightroom menu, and had about 200 images in a collection. The application went through the motions, but I tried opening the slideshow but it didn't work. I tried it in PDF format and it output a 135MB file that ADobe Acrobat couldn't open. It is still not working. I have also used a third party application Photo to Movie (www.LQGraphics.com). This is a $50 application that you can add music to and vary the zooms and dissolves and this works incredibly well!!!
6. One of my biggest problems so far is the sort mechanism. I have about 9500 images in my library, and about 5% of those were made from about 2004 and on. My images are sorted by "capture time," but the images shot back in CY 2004--2005 are mixed in somewhere way down in the pile. There are some bugs in the program for reading the capture time, and so far this is not working accurately!
7. From the Lightroom Library module, several times I have exported images for 3rd party needs and the application puts out varying results. In March I output some images for Communication Arts magazine. They specified file size and format, and it took me several times to export the images to their specifications. I recently exported some images for submission to a UK based stock photography agent. The images came from 5 different cameras~~Hasselblad w/ Imacon Digital Back, Kodak DCS-14, Canon 1ds MkII, and Canon D-20. There were 10 images that needed to be output as JPEGs (

1. LR uses what was written in the copyright field so it's your data entry that is inconsistent.
2. Are you 100% certain this is not working reliably under 1.1? It definitely wasn't working at all under 1.0 and Adobe responded to complaints. Since 1.1, I've taken large numbers of Web-generated pictures into iView and not found any cases where the metadata was missing. "Sometimes" is too vague. How exactly can you prove it? What programs prove it?
3. Not sure, but isn't this a problem because of Flash? Also the browser you use is not important - it's the browser that your visitor uses that you need to focus on.
4. Realistically, Flash is better for this. You can always get someone to write/modify HTML templates to do such a slideshow, but the built-in templates are already very complex and this suggestion would add another layer of browser incompatibility.
7. This isn't a feature request. Raise this in the main forum - and be specific (your post was also too long and got truncated). How can anyone help you if you say "varying results"? It's unlikely that any variation is random.

Feature Requests: "Last Import" shortcut / Last visited collections in "New Coll." dialog

i think this isn't not only my personal workflow and others would be happy about this minor improvements:
1. after an import of photos from the memory card i'm usually separate them into several new collections. after naming them i'm pointing to an existing collection set.
here i always need to scroll around in the pulldown menu of the new collection dialog to find the desired set. this menu is growing longer and longer with my nearly 100k photos.
it would be extremely nice to have displayed here some, let's say, top 5 or 10 collection sets i've visited to get quickly to a set where to drop the new collection.
such kind of history is already availabe in the left hand pulldown menu above the film strip. so it shouldn't be difficult to integrate this in the new collection dialog.
additionally a structured menu would be better there than the current view with all collection sets folded out.
additionally think about the mac-like navigation through folders in the finder with the cursor keys: up/down to move in the set structure, right to go into a set, left to move one level up.
2. after having dropped a new collection into a set i usually need to go back to the last import section of the library to continue my work. this is possible only by clicking in the catalog panel or by choosing last import from the left hand pulldown menu above the film strip. here a keyboard shortcut would be a huge time saver.

You've got some nice ideas there. As they may not make the final release, and this forum will be closed down once the beta is over, might I suggest adding it as a suggestion on the Feature Request forum http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family where it can easily be tracked? If you post the link to your request here, others can also vote on your request.

Five Feature Requests - Do you have more?

Forgive me if this isn't the appropriate place to post feature requests but I couldn't find anywhere else that seemed better.
I love Keynote.... I'm looking forward to the day when I can ditch PP for good. Here are some features that I think would really help Keynote become more powerful.
1. Export as faithfully as possible to PP. Motion paths, alpha channels, etc. We live in a mixed platform world and I hate seeing my presos butchered on export.
2. Include a "slide library" like we have in iPhoto and the new iMovie. Opening dozens of presentations to find a particular slide is a pain!
3. Give us a layer browser (ala PhotoShop) to make arranging object hierarchies easier
4. Let us apply Quartz image processing to objects/layers ( blur, distort, colorize, etc) and make those effects non-destructive and play in real-time if appropriate (eg, ripples, fading, etc).
5. Give us some alternative to "SmartArt". Being able to create structured diagrams easily with SmartArt is a HUGE time saver.
Thanks!

The best way to hide such a discussion such as this is to lead on from another established thread about a related matter. The worse way is to put "feature request" in the title. I listed ten or so features and got the thread pulled in 24hrs.
Against that, I feature requested (*Keynote Menu> Feedback...*) a feature similar to Magic Move (but less ambitious) last year and was pleasantly surprised to see MM in KN'09. Also noted KN'08 had very difficult Build>Move path construction tools that hid control points under other objects and now they stay active. Very subtle but effective improvements there. Not sure if it was listening, synchronicity or randomness but gives hope.
Co-Melbournian, Les Posen presented to the Keynote dev team and his blog has an account of sorts.

One Small Feature Request

Well, I got the Add-In installed and working. Looks pretty good. One small feature request I have, that I have become accustom to doing from another tool that I use is that when editing a package, in the Oracle Explorer window, when you expand the Packages node, then expand the package you are working on, it shows a list of procedures and functions in that package. This is great. Now what would be really great is that if you could double click on one of these procedures or functions it would take you to that place in the code of the package body.
So for example, let's say I have a package called Pkg_DoStuff. Pkg_DoStuff has three procedures, Foo1, Foo2, and Foo3. When I expand Pkg_DoStuff in the Oracle Explorer windows, I see nodes for Foo1, Foo2, and Foo3. Now, if I double click on Foo3, I would like the code window to place the cursor at the start of the Foo3 procedure in the package body.
Thanks,
Kevin

Another feature request:
Please add a Raptor feature to the Data Connections and allow users to apply filters to tree browsing. We use Oracle Apps 11i, and there must be about 50 thousand tables, views and packages that can potentially be visible. It usually takes several minutes for the Data Connections tree to respond when I bring up a list of tables even for a login with limited access. However, with the filter applied in raptor, I can browse very quickly to tables, views and packages that I need.
Thank you.

SQL Developer Exchange: Feature Requests

I'm requesting a new feature for the Feature Requestor :-)
Would it be possible to show a creation date and last rated date on the Feature Requests report to help in tracking what's been changed?
(And note that the HTML Title on the Rating Page says "Rating Deatil" instead of "Detail".)

Thanks for the feedback, I'll note those requests. I thought I'd got all the typos!

Feature request for iTunes: Rating from iPod to Library.

I'm not able to send feature requests via the 'Provide iTunes feedback'. So I'm posting here. I use my iPod more often to listen to music than my computer. I don't have time to sit at my machine and rate files. But My commute is an hour so I've got a LOT of time on the train & bus to rate my songs as I listen to them. However when I plug in my iPod to update it, etc. the ratings on my iPod stay there and my songs in my library stay unrated.
I'd like for there to be an option for this. To be able to transfer song ratings from my iPod to my iTunes library.
Many thanks for the music.

Please teach me how to use this feature because it doesn't work for me. Even after restoring my iPod. Please note, I'm using an iPod Nano and I manually control my library & iPod. There is no syncing of playlists nor libraries.

Feature Request: Adobe, please make After effects CC keyboard shortcuts customizable as in Premiere

I'm making this feature requests because I've tried the only two known methods for customizing keyboard shortcuts in After Affects and neither of these work in CC:
• 2008 video tutorial on Creative Cow Forum for modifying the After Effects Keyboard shortcuts text file - unfortunately this doesn't work in AE CC
• a youtube tutorial about how to install KeyedUp for After Effects - tried this but also not able to change any shortcuts in AE CC
One of the things I love most about Premiere Pro CC is how many keyboard shortcuts you can customize. You can even do this in Adobe Audition.
So why not in After Effects?
Adobe please bring this feature to the next update of After Effects CC.

Hi Todd,
Sorry I replied to you in the Creative Cow forum. Just in case you didn't see my reply there, I'm reposting it here:
Essentially after following the tutorial video very carefully, modifying the shortcuts, making sure there are no traces of other instances of the old shortcut, I save the file then when I reopen AE, I get this window:
Then when I check the folder housing the shortcuts text file I see that my modified shortcut text file simply got renamed "old" at the end of the line:
See second line in window "Shortcuts.txt.old" -> that's the file I modified. It looks like AE simply spawned a new default shortcuts file titled "...Shortcuts.txt"

Posting Feature Requests for others to Copy/Paste

I recently posted a Feature Request I sent to Adobe for another member to copy/paste as his own FR since he liked the suggestion (see the FR below).
After doing so, I got the idea that we could all do this: copy/paste FRs we send to Adobe into threads on this forum to help each other support the idea with similar requests, or even copy/paste the FR as our own. With limited resources and time, there's only so many requests Adobe can implement in every new version. That why it's so important that new features the Premiere Pro team invests their hard work and time on be the tools that would benefit the greatest number of editors. The more people back up certain ideas, the more likely they'll be implemented sooner than later.
There's power in numbers, so how about using this forum to share our best ideas and make it easier for others to add their voice of support? It's great that Adobe provides us with a way to send them feedback, but it's too bad that it's a one-way conversation with very little, if any, dialogue back and forth between the submitter and Adobe. That's why I thought it would be great to bring more of that potential dialogue here, where we can share ideas and support the creation of an ever better Premiere Pro!
If you've never posted a FR or BR (Bug Report) before, you can easily join the effort to make Premiere Pro become all that it can be, here: www.adobe.com/go/wish
Comments? Ideas? Please share!
Here's the FR I pasted in another thread, as an example.
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature: Drag&Drop Modified clips into Project Window
How would you like the feature to work?
Ability to Drag&Drop clips with effects, motion settings, keyframes and/or markers back into the Project Window from the Timeline for later use.
Why is this feature important to you?
The Project Window is far better than Sequences for storing/organizing modified clips for future use, since it is:
Searchable
Sortable
Viewable in Icon and List views
Full of helpful metadata columns such as 'Video/Audio Usage'
Foolproof in that the original sequence can be deleted without losing any created subclips
Given these advantages, why only allow us to store modified clips in Sequences? Please fix this by allowing users to Drag&Drop clips from the Timeline to the Project Window while preserving all of their modifications (effects, keyframes, motion settings and/or markers).

Comments? Ideas? Please share!
As it has already been discussed in this thread (and duplicated threads are not allowed in Adobe Forums), the aforementioned feature request is mainly based on the false statement that an editor can either store raw clips in the Project panel or modified clip in the timeline. That's false because an editor can nest modified clip right in the timeline and the nested sequence will be automatically stored in the Project panel, turning into a regular reusable asset.
Unfortunately, the OP, as was also outlined in the duplicated thread, carefully avoids any mentioning this ability, which becomes your second nature if you use After Effects (which is unlike FCP is a part of Adobe Suite).
However, since the OP asks for sharing ideas, I do not hesitate to do this once again. Here is the feature request intended to improve the usability of such PrPro assets as 'Sequences' without breaking existing workflow:
*******Managing Sequences*******
It would be nice if managing capabilities for such assets as 'Sequences' were extended with the following features:
- similar live thumbnail view, which was introduced for footages in CS6. A small 'Sequence' badge in the top left corner of the thumbnail would allow to differentiate between sequences and clips;
- enabled metadata and ability to handle them like for any other regular asset;
- ability to remove empty audio or video tracks completely, i.e. get a sequence as an Audio or Video asset only;
- pop-up dialog box on hitting 'Nest' command, which would allow to give meaning name instead of default 'Nested Sequence XXX', contain 'Delete All Empty Tracks' checkbox and a button for advanced dialog for logging metadata right on a brand new asset creation.
These features would improve an ability to exploit sequences as reusable assets and preserve consistent applications behaviour throughout the Suite instead of breaking existing workflow by inventing new FCP style 'subclip with effects' type of asset. See this discussion in PrPro Forum for some more details:

Trivial bug/feature request

It's sort of a simple thing, but here goes.
In /etc/fstab /dev/cdrom has a default (standard Arch install) filesystem parameter of as iso9660
and /dev/dvd has a default (standard Arch install) filesystem parameter of udf. I'm using thunar-volman and I put a CD in my DVD drive and I got an error about it not being able to be mounted. I just changed the respective filesystems for /dev/dvd and /dev/cdrom to auto and it worked fine (no reboots at all).
IMO, something the default setting for /dev/dvd should be auto, possibly even /dev/cdrom. It's a simple fix, but could it be done when Arch is installed, instead of having the user manually make this change?

It is best to submit feature requests to the bug tracker. Things get lost/overlooked in the forums.

DVDSP Features Request??

Not that apple will listen but list any features you'd like to see in upcoming versions:
- I like to see some basic editing features - cutting and pasting MPEGs, basic audio controls and an audio scope please.
- Real Video output control
- Fully integrate Compressor with DVDSP - bring your assets in and be able to adjust your settings in DVDSP. If somethings not right - go back to the assets window and makes encoding adjustments and hit "submit"
- A frame-level bitrate viewer - this would be a biggie!
- Most of all - I wish Apple would design a spec level application. I spit on Sonic and thier crappy support team. Scenarist is a pain to use well. I sit thier all day and can think of endless ways to improve it. I wonder to myself why this poor excuse for a company doesn't have any real competition.

Oh boy. I've got a whole bunch of FR's. I'm actually putting them on my blog when I get a chance. Anyway...
>- I like to see some basic editing features - cutting and pasting MPEGs, basic audio controls and an audio scope please.
Sure. I think quite a few people would like that. There are OSX apps out there if you need the control right away.
>- Real Video output control
Yeah, this is high on a lot of peoples list. Would be great if we got that in the next version.
>- Fully integrate Compressor with DVDSP - bring your assets in and be able to adjust your settings in DVDSP. If somethings not right - go back to the assets window and makes encoding adjustments and hit "submit"
It seems like a lot people would like this too. I don't really use Compressor but I'm sure those that do would welcome it. It seems to me a happy middle ground may be better cause Compressor is more than just an mpeg-2 encoder. If all the options where visible in dvdsp that would cause confusion... I'd like a hardware option from Apple...
>- A frame-level bitrate viewer - this would be a biggie!
Yeah that would be cool. I should do a feature request list for MPressionist Pro too. I use Digigami's analyzer all the time but it would be interesting to see an apple version. One of the things I want back (but an improved version) is the dvdsp 1.x.x mux window. I think apple could make a very cool and informative version of this.

>- Most of all - I wish Apple would design a spec level application.
Oh don't get me started on this one! I soooo wish that too. I do not want it to be part of the current dvdsp. I'd rather it be a very different app with no 'basic' mode, dropzones etc.
>I sit thier all day and can think of endless ways to improve it. I wonder to myself why this poor excuse for a company doesn't have any real competition.
Yeah I have a big list of things I'd like changed/added to Scenarist but I actually don't mind it. Why no real competition? Well my thinking is cause spec authoring is a niche of a niche market. Then you throw a mac only version into that equation and the numbers don't look great! Who are you targeting? Many editors don't want to learn about PGCs, VTSs and all the good ol' spec stuff. Many Scenarist users wouldn't switch to mac. Many mac users are happy getting apps for a few hundred bucks so may not want to shell out for a spec app and support! This is one we could talk about for ages and maybe others will step up for the HD stuff... we'll see...

RV220W - Feature Request - VLANS

I am not sure why they changed the VLAN configuration page, or if anyone else cares. But I would like to request that it is either changed back, or the ability to decide which vlans use which ports is added, rather than the current tagged, and untagged options. I also think any wireless vlans should be seperate as they were in the older firmwares.
Having spoken to support the changes were implemented to make it easier to configure. Personally it hasn't made things easier for me.
Old Configuration Pages:
New Configuration Pages:
Cheapers Cisco routers have these options (except they only allow 4 vlans) as do many other makes such as draytek.
I bought this router because it was intuative and simple to use and allowed me to specify which vlans used which ports, now that this feature has gone it's caused me all sorts of issues. Maybe I am alone on this one, but it seems like a step backwards to me. It just isn't as configurable.
Would anyone else like to see the old vlan config pages back?
Is this possible?
How does one go about officially putting in a feature request?
Regards
Michael.

The screens haven't changed, they are supported but it appears that it works with the membership table thingy they created. The 1.0.4.6 version looks just the same as the 1.0.3.5 version. Whatever they fixed wasn't what we were looking for. I'd say stick with the 1.0.3.5 version and see if their new configuration idea works before doing the upgrade. The newer manual does address VLAN membership, but they go about it in a strange way when they explain tagged and untagged membership. Personally I hate this table thing, the screen shots of the original you provided seem to make set up a bit more logical. Checking a box to assign the port to the VLAN just seems easier. I just got the Beta version yesterday but I haven't had time to try out the VLAN setup, users get unhappy when the router boots.... I've glanced at the newer manual and it appears port based VLAN is supported through the table, but I'm going to have to find time to "play" with it to find out if it works properly. I've also sent them feed back on the manual mixup, by the way, the newer manual is 30 pages or so longer than the old one. The newest manual # is 78-19743-01 DO the numbers are the same, they just added the DO to the new one.
Let me know if you have any luck,
Kevin

Videos of Illustrator features request

I'd like to recommend these series of videos:
http://artofgarth.com/category/illustrator/
Is highly recommendable: I don't agree with all the suggestions, but there are many features ideas for efficiency, as the author demonstrate with examples.
Like the author says " is not an Illustrator bashing session. I really want to learn the best way to do things, and I want Illustrator to step up..."
I totally subscribe. I have more than 13 years of experience using vector drawing software and i'd really want illustrator to become a more efficient and productive tool.
Too many common techniques -used by professional artists with other vector applications- cannot be easily achieved using the current version of illustrator. If AI aspires to be the standard professional application in the market, such lacks are unacceptable.
I strongly encourage Adobe engineers to study these and other contributions and to develop a better application. Is not a question of personal preferences and gripes, but to opening a dialogue to improve our tool.

> If AI aspires to be the standard professional application in the market, such lacks are unacceptable.
Best I can figure, too many users consider it just that; and that's why such lacks are acceptable.
I don't mean to be "forum sheriff" here, but I really wish users would stop and think a minute before posting their favorite LISTS of features as a topic here!
Personally, I just can't tolerate tedious videos for something that can be simply stated. I mean, why sit through 45 seconds of video (feels like 5 minutes) just to hear someone finally say "I want to be able to import more than one image at a time"? (As if that hasn't been requested a kazillion times here.) That's as far as I got in the YouTube clip.
This forum exists so people can discuss the merits of a suggested feature. This forum is supposed to be navigable
as a list. The whole thing is wrecked when people post their "favorite lists" of desired features, and title it as the functional equivalent of "My Favorite List".
I mean, do you think anyone wants to come here and read through every individual's "favorite list" to see if there happens to be something of interest (or actually something new) buried in there?
If you want to discuss the merits of a feature request, state it. Describe it fully (okay, even with a video if you must). But please create
one topic per request!
If you really think a feature idea has merit, then do it justice my making it
findable! The very best, most original idea that fixes all of Illustrator's shortcomings in one fell swoop is probably buried in this forum somewhere under "Joe's Feature List."
