Thomas,

Do you know if there’s any plans of introducing a “magic button” to Illustrator that will create logos for you? Many clients already seem to believe that something similar exists. ;-)

Please note that if you want

Please note that if you want a glyph palette in Photoshop, you should request it in the appropriate place: http://www.adobe.com/support/feature.html

Use the same form to ask for more consistent UI, or whatever it is that’s bugging you.

We really do notice the number of user requests for these sorts of things.

No Glyph Palette in Photoshop CS

Why no glyph palette in Photoshop CS or CS2? I thought Adobe was all about consistifying their suite.

I know PS is not supposed to be a type-centric app, but trying to access OpenType* features without the glyph palette is a pain in the pooper. No one wants to trial-and-error all the contextual/stylistic/swash options in the Character fly menu.

* Adobe’s ballyhooed format!
