Hi, recently I faced a new problem. When I use the trackpad for zoom-in/out the artboard keeps rotating. I don't know how can I fix this problem.

Hi I solved this problem by going to macbook System Preferences> Track Pad >Scroll and Zoom > Rotate and uncheck rotate with two fingers .

Hope this helps if there isn't already another solution that i have missed.

A new feature seems to have hit Illustrator, where you can turn the artboards with the 2-finger-turn on the trackpad of your laptop... but for the life of me I cannot get the artboards returned back to be vertically straight again. Can someone help me with this? there must be a drop-down menu for resettting the angle of the artboards in the sdropdown menu that I'm missing...?

That menu is in the status bar at the bottom left of the document window.

Double click the rotating hand tool.

It looks like you cannot lock the angle of the canvas.
