    Don't know if anyone is really reading these, the other related thread looks to have been closed yesterday.

    I've had this happening all week and realized it was happening to the artboard names I had copied to paste and edit on the next artboard..I stopped copying the name and started just typing each artboards name and this behavior seems to have stopped. Definitely a bug of some sort that copying the name is occasionally causing this.

    Artboards are renaming themselves back to their original names. This happens sometimes several minutes after they've been named and seem to correspond to copy/paste from other AI files.

    This has been mildly troublesome in the past, but now its getting in the way of a project. Multiple AI docs, each with 30-50 artboards.

    Happens with multiple artboard documents routinely. For certain projects I may have 100 or more artboards in a single file and they're named properly. It is a bad user experience to have to rename artboards that were just renamed. B
