Negative Zero One - Export with "Use Artboards" checked adds "-01" fixed - and then reversed

Question

The august Illustrator update fixed the issue of  "-01" (I call it "negative zero one" becuase I seriously dislike this behavior) being added to the end of a filename if "Use Artboards" is checked during export. The October update that I installed today has reversed that fix. Is there any particular reason??? I have exported images that are linked in InDesign files that I have to go back and relink for the second time in two months because of the change - unless I want to remove the -01 every time I export images. I know it was a hot debeate for years and I was so happy to see the change, I didn't even mind that I had to relink files - but having to do it again because negative zero one is back is a double whammy!

Hello @katiec47579934,

We are sorry for the inconvenience. We had to temporarily reverse this feature in the Max release as a lot of users' workflow was disturbed due to this.

The team is trying/ looking for a fix, so users who want this feature or don't want it will have the option to choose.

Would you mind upvoting this UserVoice (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/31723057-wh...) and adding your comment here? The product team is monitoring this UserVoice, and your upvote will help prioritize it.

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Anubhav
