When you double-click an artboard name in the artboard palette, the screen zooms to fit that artboard on screen.

How do you stop the zoom from happening?

***The reason I don't desire this functionality is that during the naming process I need to see other artboards and objects on screen

artboard name

Correct answer JonathanArias

if you use the artboard tool, on the arboard you are on. on the top you will see the space to rename the artboard. look at my screenshot below. it says "name: black space for you to type"

In the Artboard palette there are three columns. The third column contains icons that look like a wheezing pig (in CC 2017; if you are using a different version it may not look like that).

If you single-click the pig, the Artboard Options dialog appears focussed on the Name field, so you can immediately change the name. Without changing the actual Zoom level. Would that be a good way?

Switch to the artboard tool, and rename the file in the control frame up on top.
