Artboard name on Artboard

Hi,

fast question. New version of AI 2026 has instaled on my PC, and I see one thing that I don't like. 
The name of artboard is displayed permanently and I can't hide it (I'm looking around, but I don't find an option to hide it). Is there an option to hide it, or is this a super feature from Adobe that I don't want, but I need to get it?

This is currently only in the Beta, so use the general release if you don't want the feature at all. But you can turn it off under Preferences > Selection and Anchor Display > Artboard Display.

Edit: it's in the general release as of version 30.

That's what I'm looking for. Thank you!

Thanks for this, it was driving me crazy. It really should have been an opt-in feature, not opt-out. Especially if it's going to be buried in Preferences and not under View.

But you saved me from hours of pulling my hair out, so thanks!

Thanks for the reply, Doug. I was going crazy. When you put one artboard below another, the name overlaps the art above. I didn't like that.
