Better Group Hierarchy for Create Outlines

Enthusiast ,
Aug 14, 2025 Aug 14, 2025

When Create Outlines is invoked for a multiline text, the Grouping could be much better.

Currently, when choosing to ungroup the result, every character becomes a separate object.

How great would it be when Create Outlines makes a 4 level Group hierarchy this way:

 

Text > Paragaphs > Lines > Words > Characters

 

So 4x ungroup results in separate characters.

3x gives separate words (separator = space), 2x gives separate lines (separator = return), 1x gives separate Paragraphs (empty line / double return = separator).

 

Makes sense, doesn't it?

Thanks Ton, done.

I was a somewhat lost in Adobe cc's jungle of communities and feedback pages.

Some have User Voice, some don't (Photoshop), some have separate feedback pages, some have it integrated in the community forum.

 

E.g. for After Effects, there is this choice menu in the community forum:

I understand, it is a confusing mixture of feedback options. Luckily the Illustrator UserVoice is very well managed (which does not mean that all your wishes will be fullfilled and all your problems solved).
