Allow users to set a custom UI scale, like in World Creator. At the moment the interface is either too large or too small using the default windows scaling

In Substance Designer, when having multiple graphs into a same package, it is difficult to know which ones are enabled tor publication in SBSAR. We need to open then one by one and check. Please add a window where we can quickly see which graphs are currently enabled for publication and from where we can enable/disable their publication status.

There are Value nodes in SD but no Switch Value to branch them as we do with textures. A workaround it to transfer a Value into a Uniform Color and store the value in RGBA then use a Switch Color, but that is not a great way to handle this. Please add a Switch Value node.

Allow exporting other image formats for GLTF/GLB, such as Jpeg. This would allow GLB file sizes to be much smaller/more optimized for web use.

It would be super handy if there was a native node that can drive both the amount and size of a pattern.

There is a guy who works at Pixar who developed a node that is exactly what I'm looking for (images attached), but I wish there was a native Substance Designer version of the same principle but with even more control.

As a Swedish user, with a Swedish keyboard, I'd love to be able to use my numpad to enter decimal numbers. However, Substance Designer doesn't see comma (,) as a valid notation for writing '.7' for example. Would be awesome if Substance could just change the commas to dots as many other Adobe software does. It's quite annoying to not be able to use my numpad.

Thanks!

Please expose a token for the description field for udim texture sets when exporting. Similar to the $udim tag or $meshname etc... this would be a huge time saver and make for more flexible exports. Some workflows would greatly benefit from this.

The PBR Render node is getting more features and it's incredibly useful to get good renders easily, but it still has a lot of shortcomings.

Aside from sphere and plane, there are no options for other models.

A cube (rounded or not) would cover a lot of scenarios.

(it would also be nice to get a cleaner image - right now there are a lot of artifacts caused by reflections I suppose)

(it would also be nice to have a mask of the DOF to be used for image editing - ie adding clarity)

It would be great to have the option to browse all the panels such as properties menu and library by dragging. In the same manner as in Substance painter and other programs. In the most programs this is done with middle mouse button, but i think it would be logical to have it bind on ctrl+alt+left mouse button since the feature already works like this in the substance painter.

I think toggleable guides / a simple grid (a la Photoshop) would be helpful in the 2D viewport. Currently we only really have the ability to eyeball if a shape is centralised, or takes up a certain amount of the texture space. This would be help in creating more precision materials and for creating trim sheets too.

Usually there is Wacom pen in my right hand and my left palm is over left corner of keyboard around ctrl/shift etc keys.

I am kind of lazy to reach delete or backspace buttons:) so if we could do it Blender way It would be super cool

We need to export a non-tile & non-square file, like the filter forge.
for example:
24576x8192

I love the new ability to create nodes with shortcuts. But it would be even more helpful if we could set up shortcuts for the same node with different parameters. The specific reason I want this for is the blend node, which I usually node which mode I'm gonna use when I create it. It would be great if I could set up different shortcuts for multiply, screen, overlay etc.

I would like to request a feature to use left click to pan around substance designer graph. Similar as how it is in Unreal Engines node editor.

I am aware that Substance Designer has right click for the menu but that should not be a problem because Unreal Engine has solved similar issue with separating click + drag and click as a different actions.

For reference open up Unreal Engine material editor for example.

It is time to integrate some new formats that are getting more and more popular across many ranges of platforms and are also easier for handling and transporting HDR content.

I would like to see support for JPEG XL, AVIF and HEIF/HEIC

There should at least be some import features for AVIF & HEIF
I personally root for JPEG XL which I think will finally become the new standard because its packed with a lot of advantages over everything else and does not need a lot more power to compute.

Ability to either expose the colors used within the gradient map or ability to connect uniform color nodes to the gradient map along with the grayscale input, similar to how Tile Sampler or Tile Generator can have multiple pattern inputs.
