I decided to try out artboards and one thing I can't figure out is how to make the zoom operations work on a single artboard using AD2. Is there a way to do this? I use the keyboard shortcuts all the time and this is killing me.

Note that on Macs most of those shortcuts require using the CMD key -- just tapping a number key will change the opacity of a selected layer.

On Win computer keyboards use Ctrl instead of Cmd (which either way isn't available there on keyboards).

Apparently I use cmd-0 a lot more than I realize as it's messing up my workflow with artboards 🤣

How so? CMD-zero should just set the zoom level to Zoom to Fit. How does that mess anything up?
