Awesome! Glad you guys are listening

not allowed to use beta at work. when is the public release?

Seems like a basic function that should have been added years ago.

I hope the keyboard shortcut is also inserted to quickly switch to this view, just as it happens in indesign with the W command

Any updates on this one? This is just ridiculous! Every time I need to show the client something I need to create temporary clipping masks which is just insane to waste all this time on a logical missing feature!

Still can't find it... this is from last year...

The way indesign already does it is very nice. I just hit 'W' and it toggle between hide and unhide.

I think this is in plan of 2018 max release.

I think InDesign does it best. You can see things outside the artboard but you can also hide them. The best of 2 worlds.

I hope to get this new feature soon. These are years that I go on creating dark masks to cover the off-table. Indesign is great in this.

****** IS DA REAL MVP!

REALLY looking forward to this feature

Sorry I just couldn’t see the full comment box so I made a mess out of my suggestion

For the guides have the guides in unlocked default and then have a toggle key to lock them otherwise you have to you have to add a guide but if you drop it in the wrong spot you have to go and unlock it and then go back to adjust it if you have a locker and unlock yo for the guides have the guides in unlocked default and then have a toggle key to lock them otherwise you have to you have to add a guide but if you drop it in the wrong spot you have to go and unlock it you should have a lock and unlock key

...vector programs that is!

It will be nice to use one key to toggle between three modes of an open art board, a bleed art board, and a preview art board
there’s a menu option and from That you can set keyboard commands. I believe InDesign has That feature in these both being Dichter programs I’m sure it couldn’t be too hard to set up thanks

I found the shortcut! it is cmd+shift+h

There is a way to apply opacity mask to whole layer, that will exactly what you want without clipping mask. Target layer's appearance by clicking round marker next to layer's name in Layers palette, then create opacity mask and put black rectangle sized as artboard. Check 'Clipping' and 'Invert' options for mask. Exit mask. Now everything beyond artboard should be hidden. This is convenient, when your clipping mask/path is complex and you have to constantly change it.

You can also set artboard-sized rectangle to be a layer's clipping mask directly, so you won't need to enter isolation mode. Just select only it and choose 'Make clipping mask' in Layers palette options. You can lock path, if you like, and draw as you usually do.

So the third option is not necessary, I guess.

Good patience and intelligibility to you :)

Add a check box in the Properties panel that allows an artboard to hide all the content that falls outside the bounds of it. Having to group objects and use a clipping mask every single time is so time consuming when working on complex projects. I imagine this could also work in a similar fashion to how Photoshop does it.

YES PLEASE!
