I would like to see the following:

  • The ability to import multiple images into one document whereby each image creates its own artboard
  • The ability to select images in multiple artboards and have them manipulated together, but in their own artboard. For example, 10 images in 10 artboards, selecting align all to middle aligns each image to the middle of its own artboard
  • Move backward/fwd/to front etc option for artboards.
  • Artboards numbered.

Thanks.

You can do that now, but it takes a manual step:

  1. Place your images in the pasteboard of the document (not on an Artboard or in the canvas).
  2. Select the Artboard Tool, click on an image, then click the Insert Artboard button in the Context Toolbar. (The size should already be set to Selection, but if not, set it that way.)

I'm not sure I understand that. Artboards are automatically numbered when created, except in the case where you make a copy of an existing artboard.

Importing images

Good workaround, cheers, but it's still time consuming and I would still like to see the feature.

Numbering the artboards in the layers panel.

If you have multiple artboards they can be difficult to organise and AD isn't clever enough to do it in any order. If each artboard was labelled 1-to-whatever in the layers panel, it would be easier to locate and 10 times faster to organise.

So you're talking about a specific number before the artboard name in the layers panel, rather than as part of the artboard name?
I guess I'm still having a bit of trouble visualizing what you want, though it sounds interesting.

One question, though: Are you asking for something based on the artboard's location within the Layers panel, or based on its creation order (as we currently have)? One would change as the artboards are reordered in the Layers panel; the other wouldn't.

Neither would handle situations where you created 3 artboards, Artboard1, Artboard2, and Artboard3 horizontally across the workspace, then moved Artboard3 between 1 and 2.
