The Adobe Boards is one of the most profound additions that has been added to Adobe. It is an AI tool that is actually very useful rather than just having potential. But being much more than just an AI tool, this could replace other programs I use if it can do a few additional features (and in doing so secure my adoption). I could see this program as a one-stop-shop for the whole creative conceptual iterative process so you could arrange ideas in the way a project would demand. So here's a few ideas (you may already be working through):

 

- Ordering Images - order images without losing thier general arangement. I'm finding that it is ver helpful to have big blocks of multiple images to help me wrap my idea around an idea, but it is very fussy to arrange them individually and when I auto arrange it totally changes my herarchy.

- Exportability - It would be nice to be able to export this as a whole to save the positions and placents of everything. My gut impression (and my creative team coworkers as well) is feeling a bit nervous to lean into this feature too much if there isn't a way to get it out of the software into another form since Adobe does change things a fiar bit. We use PureRef to develop out multple massive boards for projects to centralize references for our teams. Having the ability to export indiviual images (like you already have) but also a PDF of the entire thing, and that it is a desktop version, gives us some peace of mind.

- Word Bubble - A simple feature to connect images and dialogue boxes would be massive - a solid line, arrow, etc. to lock onto two ideas no matter where they are moved. The program Scapple utilizes this and it makes it really easy to flesh out ideas in those early stages of projects. Other programs that do something similar are way to clunky whereas Scapple is just really intuitive. So this feature with the collaborative function (That Scapple does not have) would be amazing for brainstorming with a team.

- Check box/To-Do list - This would allow for some basic punch lists. Sometimes I use these when working through ideas but also for side projects where I want to keep my references and project notes together rather than spreading out to too many programs. This is a feature that can be found in Milanote. extra credit if these checked boxes can trigger something else (and therefor tie into a bigger project management workflow).

 

I am very excited about this program and am really enjoying it! I would be very open to discussing ideas further, though I am sure you're getting lots already. Thank you for the work you are doing at Adobe,
