All requests and remarks posted on this blog, have been shared with the developers of the concerning products. The Feature Requests blog is my independent way of sharing, and recording both ideas and annoyance about software. Improvement is the main goal.

Let us click the chain-icon in Photoshop Image Size panel, to constrain and unconstrain proportions


In most apps the constrain proportions (aka constrain aspect ration...) setting can be activated and deactivated by clicking the small chain icon.
Please make this possible in Photoshop!
In the current version of Photoshop the user can only switch this feature by clicking the checkbox in the lower part of the panel.

Please let the computer compute: make all fields in Photoshop able to calculate

It would be very convenient if Adobe Photoshop could do simple calculations in it's input field. E.g type 768*2 in a field, and the software makes it 1536. Most other software does this, but PS lacks this user friendly way of inputting.

More flexible Swatches palette

I would love to have a Swatches palette that accepts Drag & Drop from whatever what other panel. E.g.: try to drag a gradient stop to the solid swatched tab - this won't work. Why not?

Why not apply a Blur Gallery effect to a layer mask?

When masking 3d-scenes, most of the time the mask must be sharp in some area's and blurry in others. It would be great to use the Blur Gallery for this purpose!

After Effects 3d Camera Tracker Scale Definition

The new After Effects (CS6) 3d Camera Tracker/Solver is very accurate! But it lacks a way to define the scale of the scene. My feature request would be: let us draw a line on top of the footage, and define it's real life length, so the tracker's feedback is in the right scale!

Why?
Because in vfx, scale is very important. E.g. when compositing a 3d model of a car on a road, it's good to know that the scale ratio's are the same. In the current situation, the road can be 12000 meters wide, and than it's not easy to make the car the right size.

We want virtual sliders througout the suite!


We want virutal sliders to change type size and leading!
Just like in Photoshop:  press CMD (Mac) and slide the mouse to increase/decrease size.
This should be enabled througout the suite!

Apple – don't abandon the MacPro (and its users)!

Apple – don't abandon the MacPro (and its users)! It will be a shame when Apple chooses to leave the creative pro market. One of the things that distinguishes Apple from Samsung, is their history in the creative industry. If they skip the people that create content, the Apple will we eaten up from the inside, leaving a fruit without the clockhouse.  They can survive for a couple of years, but then the masses will move on to a new, fresh and hip brand. Furthermore, I think in the near future the competition regulations will insist on cross platform compatibility for the store. So consumers must be able to buy from iTunes with their Android and Windows devices, and vice versa. In that case, Apple will again loose some of it unique selling points and that will temper the growth.
