Artboards name disappear after renaming
After renaming an artboard in the panel, it will return to it's default name eg. , Artboard [x], instead of maintaining the new name.
AI version: 22.0.1

I am closing the ticket due to lack of response.

Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.

When renaming artboards, I often see the first artboard revert to its original title. The first artboard labelled 'Zere' was renamed to 'O2' like all the other artboards, but reverted once I got to the end...

I have this happen as well. Also, sometimes Art-board names disappear entirely.

Artboard names constantly delete itself. Sometime when I named 20 dartboards and saved it, AI suddenly deleted all these names after I save it.

- When renaming Artboards, some Artboards will revert to their original name at random. Especially present when copying and renaming artboards. It's most common for the FIRST artboard to revert to its original name
- Sometimes when creating artboards, the name will be blank
- When renaming artboards, CRTL + Z doesn't work the first time. Yet when you CTRL + Z again, both Undo's are actioned.
- Sometimes, artboards will rename successfully, only for them to revert later or export for screens with the wrong names.

Still happening here. Using 25.4.1.
Please fix this, saving several SVG files with wrong names although I gave them other names is quite annoying.

this is first time to realise this bug. When i gave a new name of the artboard, it will be turned back to the old after shifting between different illustrator documents. I use the latest version of Adobe illustrator 2021.

Still having the same problem in Illustrator 25.1
Renamed 22 artboards in the artboards panel, saved file, closed file, reopened file only to find my custom names have reverted to generic artboard names.

Why was this ticket closed? This is still an issue in Ai CC 2020. Names appear fine in the artboard panel then I save for screens and the names are reverted to a previous name. Back to artboard panel and they are the new names. Totally inconsistent. save close, reopen, artboard names are reverted! Typing them in a second time seems to make them stick. Super annoying to repeat my work.

The first Artboard loses its title after entering it in the Artboards panel and reverts to "Artboard 1". Intermittent but frequent. I have not figured out a way to accurately reproduce but it happens often and is incredibly frustrating. Not new to v25--it has been an issue for years.

After downloading Big Sur, I've found when I name the artboards and then save the file, when I open it again the artboards have reverted back to not having a name just Artboard 01' etc.

When you rename the artboard, especially several at one time, the name will go back to the old one, even if you hit enter and save it. I usually notice this after I've exported artboards as PNGs and I get names with "copy" still in it or as the default artboard names.

Yes, this problem exist. After renaming artboard, saving, closing document and then opening it, artboard again named Artboard [x], and number after word "Artboard" increments by 1 after every saving-closin-opening procedure.
