Feature Request-Collapse all font families

[Zen Creative Agency]

It's annoying how I have to go into Adobe Fonts and collapse each font family separately, one by one, especially when I have quite a few fonts installed.

Can't you just have a checkbox to each of the font families so we can select whichever ones we want to deactivate, with the option to also collapse each checked font family?

The lack of this sort of basic functionality (which should not be difficult to implement at all) is a huge time-waster for anyone who uses Adobe Fonts.

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback. I will make sure to share the feedback with the team for making improvements in the future.

Thanks,

Harshika

What's the update on this? I have over 5,000 fonts activated and have to scroll thru them all to find what I need. At the least, there should be a search feature.

Hello, Adobe team! Is there an update on this? Working with fonts is very cumbersome and time-consuming the way it is now.

[rditty]

Just joining the conversation to say, PLEASE integrate this "collapse all" feature. It is practically unusable the way it is now. It takes so long to just look through my recently activated fonts.

This is such a basic UI function, I am amazed it wasn't integrated from the start.

Hi, did you share this with the team, as I made this post 3 YEARS AGO and it's still a problem!

[E Clay]

Yeah, come on team Adobe, this basic requirement really needs to be addressed. Doesn't anyone at Adobe use this facility (or lack thereof)? I appreciate that you do great work, and your core products are absolutely phenomenal, but this issue is way more than a simple bugbear! Literally every website that utilises toggle containers should either be collapsed by default or easily collapsable in bulk - basic UX surely? 🙂

@E Clay

,

Thanks for your patience. I'd recommend you to submit your feedback here- https://adobe.ly/3XgLIiV, as our product team is monitoring this page.

Hi Tarun,

Really apprecaite your suggestion however, looking at the timestamp (2022, 2023) it doesn't appear that posting there makes any difference either. I think this thread should be enough to warrant the Adobe Team resolving this contentious issue.

Kind regards
Edward

@E Clay

  Thanks for your response. 

If you give a vote to it and submit your feedback, this will definitely increase the visibility of how many users are looking for this as I said, our product team is monitoring that page, so you will get updates there when it's live or any info they want to share.

Regards,

Tarun

[E Clay]

Will do, thanks Tarun 🙂

Hey Tarun, could you do this for us? Would you be able to foward this URL to your team and have them read through?

You need to post a feature request on uservoice. (or upvote an existing one !)

[artichoked]

Absolute must. So odd how basic functionality like this is overlooked.

[unstablerabbit]

hey it's been almost a year and we need this ability to collapse font families.... it's so horribly inconvenient to search for a font by scrolling.

[E Clay]

I second this. How was this overlooked in the first place, and how has it not been rectified yet? There's some irony that Adobe, or all corporations, ignore general/basic UX principles across all of their online platforms. Adobe Fonts' interface needs extensively revising, ground up! Sorry to moan, but this kind of oversight drives me crazy 😄

[Daniel_87]

This is update is required please.

[sethk84665192]

It's absolutely rediculous when very basic things like this get overlooked. Is there literally NOBODY on the adobe team who is actually using these products? I think if even 1 person was using this they would immediately say "Oh.... this is really bad, this needs fixed.". It's so strange to me.

[E Clay]

Furthermore, I notice that the Manage Fonts feature has now been removed from fonts.adobe.com and is now only accessible from the CC app, which is absurd! The UI on the CC app is restrictive and clunky, and why would users want to jump from a website to an app to manage assets!? Keep them on the website! Seriously Adobe, UX/UI should be second nature to you guys. Obviously you're going the way of MS!

[Hawaiifornia]

3-1/2 years later we're STILL waiting for this and no follow-up from the Adobe team...actually not surprised because we've already given them our money

[sethk84665192]

You would think that hopefully someone on their team is actually using this software and should be writing down when things aren't easily navigated so they can fix it.... but clearly not.

[Bobby Henderson]

Another problem with the fonts list in the CC desktop app: it needs a proper scroll bar -one that stays visible and usable. I have to use a scroll wheel on a mouse to go down the list. If I'm using a Wacom tablet my only option is using the arrow keys on the keyboard. With all the type families in the list auto-expanded to show all styles that leads to a great deal of manual scrolling.

[381randi]

I would really like to see this happen. It's a huge time waste to sit there and close fonts to see what in and whats not. Fonts are hard enough to deal with, without having to scroll though this list. Please please please please have it open with fonts collapsed.
