    Starting with Beta 29.7.1 the Rearrange dialog got a separate dedicated feature, currently called 'Align Manually'.

    With it disabled, artboards get positioned instantly in the center of the canvas, as it behaved previously.

    When this is enabled, you will enter the positioning mode after pressing OK — to allow rearranging only some artboards, to address this request.

    With more than 1 artboard selected (but not all), the mode gets enabled automatically (and becomes locked).

    Illustrator allows this today.

    1. Go to File > Place and choose the files to be placed.
    2. Click and drag on the canvas to define the grid area.
    3. While dragging, hold Opt/Alt to place all files in one gesture with an auto-calculated grid.
    4. For a custom grid layout, while dragging, press arrow keys to adjust rows and columns — Right/Left for columns, Up/Down for rows.

    Known limitations.

    1. Unlike in InDesign, we can’t control the gaps with Cmd/Ctrl + Arrows.
    2. It won’t work for drag-n-drop on canvas. works only with File > Place.
    3. This option works only for placing images, and won’t affect tools like Rectangle — use Rectangular Grid Tool instead.

    Please try how it works and comment back to help the team to polish the feature.

    This feature would be SUPER helpful. Please add it to Illustrator.
