Illustrator v29.6 - Arrange Artboards works differently

Hi, I'm having an issue with the Rearrange Artboards function in Illustrator.

Before, when I used Window > Artboards > Rearrange Artboards, it would automatically organize them after I clicked "OK". Now, it asks me to manually click on the canvas to place the layout and sometimes it freezes or crashes the app. I’ve already tried restarting, resetting preferences, creating a new file, turning GPU on/off, nothing works. Any ideas on how to fix this or bring back the automatic behavior?

Thanks!

Yes totally agree, please Adobe, either revert to the previous way the "rearrange artboards" worked, or give the option to have the "legacy" behaviour, my workflow has been completly disrupted - it often involves working on 20-30 artboards at a time and then moving them into a different order, previously this was really simple but now with the manual click it is actually unusable

Illustrator puts a white hailine at the adge of any artboard that is positioned as a fraction of a pixel.

The new artboard rearrange feature prevents me from positioning artboards to an whole pixel. So, there is not way to prevent the white hairline.

I have to manually position my first artboard, then do the math and position each board afterwards.

It's Ridiculous.

Please either have it snap the first artboard to a whole pixel or go back the the way it worked before.

I don't particularly like (to put it mildy). It doesn't allow to have pixel perfect artboards.

Olá. Na nova atualização do Illustrator, quando faço ''Reorganizar'' na ferramentas das pranchetas, ele ''questiona'' onde quero reorganizar e antigamente reorganizava ao centro. Como desativar essa opção?

The option to manually place groups of artboards when re-arranging is welcome, but to have completely removed the option to have them centred as a group on the canvas is baffling.

When working on storyboards I often have common objects locked in place, and then use the rearrange tool to re-order the artboards while leaving those locked objects where they are.

The way the new version does it means it is impossible to have the group of artboards centred on the canvas, and also means that artboards being off-pixel is almost guaranteed.

I'd really love to see an option for the rearrange artboards to behave as it did - maybe pressing Enter when it's showing the preview of the new artboard group could commit them as per the old version, and if the user clicks it places them from the mouse position.

New tool options are great, but please don't take away exiting workflow tools without good reason.

Thanks

I'm Using Illustrator 29.6.1, 

Rearranging Artboards is something I do on nearly every job… Keeps everything neat and tidy. BUT in recent days it seems to have just stopped working. Has this happened for anyone else or just me?

Known bug?

Yeah I totally agree and have spent way to long trying to center artboards to the pasteboard. The auto-center feature really helped me to meticulously layout my artboards. I understand the update but completely removing the feature really messed with my workflow. My suggestion would be to add options to the Rearrange Artboards dialog box where you can either 1) manually enter X/Y coordinates, 2) automatically center to the pasteboard, or 3) manually place with the cursor.

Hello, the new addition of the mouse cursor to rearrange selected artboards has made the tool useless for me. I used the old rearrange tool to ensure that the artboards were aligned perfectly to rounded pixels in the X and Y axis, to ensure that png exports will not have any extra pixels. 

Please is there any way to turn off the mouse cursor option, or to have it snap to whole pixels properly?
