    Hello, all! I think that you will be happy to learn that the 100 artboards limit will soon be a thing of the past (alongside many artboards improvements): https://blogs.adobe.com/creativecloud/artboard-upgrades-coming-in-illustrator/

    I have since move on to Sketch. If you haven't tried it it's much better for UI design than illustrator is. FYI

    I can think of no reason Adobe would limit the number of artboards in Illustrator, other than this is a deep-ingrained architectural limitation smacking of poor design.  Hard to imagine.  Honestly, who is going to need 80 artboards and never 120?  or 200? or 500?

    Icons/button design is the obvious use case.

    This is very un-Adobe-like

    Completely agree - and ability to auto resize the artboards to fit the content automatically instead of having to resize by hand - needs to be pixel perfect!

    Hi, the auto fit already exists. If you group your contents and then click on them using the artboard tool, it creates an artboard to the exact pixels.

    I'd like to see more than 100 artboards too. It's very handy to use the 'change to artboard rulers' to ensure all UI objects use the same coordinates instead of creating multiple files. Context: I use Illustrator for UI documents which may have over 100 'screens'/states

    Strongly agree! Art boards should be UNLIMITED, just like Sketch, and should just like Sketch that can provide filter for dartboard names! It's just so easy to fill up 100 art boards, and so hard to find the dartboards. Please improve adobe.
